An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) La Muraglia Cinese (released in the U.S. as "Behind the Great Wall"), the 1958 Carlo Lizzani Italian documentary ("For the first time!.. The Bamboo Curtain Has Been Lifted! -offering YOU spectacles of a land staggering to behold!!!"; "See The Tiger Trap - The Marriage of a Twenty Year Old Beauty to a 10 Year Old Boy - The Fantastic Race Down the Yellow River - The Fiery Funeral Ceremony"; "See The Luscious Doll Maidens - The Mighty Mongol Warriors - The Great Gobi Desert Race - The Fiercest Hand-to-Hand Combat in the World"; "See The Birds Who Stalk Fish - The Hunter Eagles of the North - All the Mysteries of this Tremendous Country ... 'Behind the Great Wall'"; "Sights and Scenes to Defy the Imagination") narrated by Chet Huntley. Note that some U.S. theaters (or perhaps just one - see below) showed this film in AromaRama. This was a process invented by Charles Weiss in which scents were emitted from the air conditioning vents at specific times to re-create the smell of what was seen on the screen. Scents included: harbors and docks, honky tonk odors, rustic barnyard, tiger, almond cake, construction, fireworks and many more. We have only seen this gimmick mentioned in a souvenir program book and we imagine not many theaters ordered the equipment needed to feature AromaRama, and it may have only occurred at the DeMille Theatre in New York.
