An Original Vintage Folded French Stage Play Poster (measures 39 1/4" x 55" [100 x 140 cm]) (Learn More)

Les Dragees d'Hercule (literally translates to "Hercules' Sugared Almonds"), the 1904 French musical comedy stage play production (of the work by Paul Bilhaud & Maurice Hennequin) starring Raimond, Cooper, Charles Lamy, Berthe Legrand, and Aimee Samuel
Artist: Ernest Montaut
Important Added Info: Note that we have never auctioned an example of this poster before! Also note that this is an extremely rare French poster from before World War II! Virtually no French posters survive from before World War II since apparently there were many paper shortages in Europe during World War II, resulting in the destruction of almost all posters from before and World War II, and also from during the war, and the first few years afterwards. Finally note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube.

Condition: good. The poster has creases scattered throughout and some creases, defects, areas of paper loss and tears of varying lengths along parts of some edges. There are some pieces of very old tape attached to the back of some of the defects, but most have loosened over time. It is otherwise "mostly all there" and after proper restoration the ultra rare poster will display well, but bear in mind the poster's condition and the cost of restoration before bidding on it.
