An Original 1948 (from the first release of this movie in Italy) Vintage Theatrical Folded Italian One-Panel (known in Italy as a "2 Fogli") Movie Poster (1p; measures 39" x 55" [99 x 140 cm]) (Learn More)

Beloved Enemy, the 1936 H.C. Potter Ireland IRA romantic crime thriller ("again Merle Oberon storms your heart!.."; "Again the enchanting star of 'The Dark Angel' and 'These Three' will weave her magic spell over you... With the most poignant and emotional role of her career... In one of the truly great stories of our time!"; very loosely based on the life of Michael Collins, the Irish IRA revolutionary hero, but you would never know it from the advertising for the movie, which is focused on pretty Merle Oberon, and makes no mention of Ireland or "the troubles") starring Merle Oberon, Brian Aherne, David Niven, Henry Stephenson, Jerome Cowan, Karen Morley, and Donald Crisp

Artist: Marino
Important Added Info: Note that we can't say for certain that this is from the first release of this movie in Italy, because it certainly could have been released there in 1936, but it also might not have been. Please do not bid on this poster unless you can accept the uncertainty as to whether it is first release or a re-release. Either way, it is an incredibly rare poster (almost no Italian posters exist from the late 1940s)!

Condition: fair to good. The poster is fragile and has tears and tiny paper loss on parts of several foldlines. It has pinholes, tears, tape stains, and paper loss around the edges. But the poster is mostly "all there", and after linenbacking by a talented professional, the poster will look fantastic, and it will likely require little paint restoration within the image. Please do not bid on this poster unless you can accept its defects described above or are willing to pay to have them properly restored!
