An Original 1963 Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) Mondo Cane, the classic 1962 (released in the U.S. in 1963) Paolo Cavara, Franco Prosperi & Gualtiero Jacopetti Italian sexploitation bizarre human oddity documentary ("Overpowering, fascinating - often shocking!"; "enter a hundred incredible worlds where the camera has never gone before!"; "A Masterpiece in Film Making"; "All the scenes you will see in this film are true and taken only from life. If often they are shocking it is because there are many astounding and even unbelievable things in this world."; featuring sex orgies, shark attacks, drunken Germans!, and a smoking chicken) narrated by Stefano Sibaldi. This was the very first movie of its kind, and was excellent, but unfortunately, its success spawned a huge number of imitators, most of which were exploitative and pretty worthless! One could make a convincing argument that all of today's "reality" TV owes a huge debt to this movie! If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we have seen another version of this poster, with the same image, but with the title in red Day-Glo ink, and that one has "DAYGLO MONDO CANE 1 SHEET" stamped on the back. This one has the title without color, and the back is stamped "MONDO CANE 1 SHEET". Obviously, they made two versions of the one-sheet, and this one, which is the one without color, is far more rare than the dayglo one. Also note that this poster contains unclothed women, so we have placed a white bar over those areas, for those who are bothered by such images. Of course, the actual poster does not have those white bars! What IS linenbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. The poster had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds and minor fold and border wear. It had a stain in the bottom left corner of the "M" of the title and the "n" of "enter" beneath it. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The restorer backed the poster "in the European style", meaning that they did not do restoration to the defects described above. Learn More about condition grades
