Katzin France automobile car racing sports action thriller ("Steve McQueen takes you for a drive in the country. The country is France. The drive is at 200 MPH!"; "Written by Harry Kleiner"; set in the French countryside's classic historic 24-hour race) starring Steve McQueen, Siegfried Rauch, Elga Andersen, Ronald Leigh-Hunt, and features classic racing legends Derek Bell, Jacky Ickx, and Jo Siffert NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this is a rare Japanese "B1" poster that measures 28 1/2" x 40 1/2" [72 x 103 cm] (we have only auctioned it once before, seven years ago, when it auctioned for $385)! "B1" posters are FAR more rare than "B2" posters (which measure approximately 20" x 28 1/2"), and because they are larger (similar in size to a U.S. one-sheet), they are more impressive when displayed on a wall! Condition: good. The poster has spotty discoloration scattered in some areas from exposure to moisture (more so on back but it is noticeable on the front.) There is a relatively small snipe at center next to the "Cinerama" logo. However, this poster is a good candidate for restoration. It is likely that most or all of the faint staining could be removed through chemical means, and after proper restoration, the poster will look fantastic! Learn More about condition grades
