Important Added Info: Note that this is a special British double crown printed for "The Academy Cinema". This was a major English cinema that would have its own posters created and printed for movies they were showing (these were made during the first English showing of those movies). Note that this particular poster says "The Academy Cinema Club", and "Members Only", which must be something they tried out for a while. If anyone knows more about this poster or exactly when it is from, please e-mail us and we will post it here.
