An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Italian Locandina Movie Poster (measures 13" x 27 1/2" [33 x 70 cm]) (Learn More) Miracolo a Milano (released in the U.S. as "Miracle in Milan"), the 1951 Vittorio De Sica Italian Italy orphan fantasy comedy melodrama (based on the novel 'Toto Il Buono' by Cesare Zavattini; about a baby who is literally found in a cabbage patch and ends up in an orphanage until he is 18, and then he is homeless, and he lives in a camp with other homeless people, and he has eternal optimism and helps them improve their lives against much adversity, and then the movie takes a very surreal turn into pure fantasy!) starring Emma Gramatica, Francesco Golisano, Paolo Stoppa, Riccardo Bertazzolo, Brunella Bovo, A. Bragaglia, Anna Carena, Virgilio Riento, and G. Barnabo. Note that Cesare Zavattini wrote the screenplay from his own novel, and unlike his other earlier collaborations with director De Sica, this movie is not "neorealism", but rather an upbeat fantasy, and at the time, they were criticized for abandoning neorealism, but this movie has many admirers!

Note that it is difficult to accurately date Italian posters, and some unmarked re-release posters can be extremely difficult to distinguish from first releases, so please bear that in mind before you place a bid. We used our best information to date this poster, but we can't always guarantee that the Italian posters we sell are not from an unmarked re-release, but this will only prove to be true in a very tiny number of cases. What IS linenbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. The poster was folded across the middle and had rough creases and some small tears in that area. It had some small and tiny areas of paper loss in the blank borders. 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 little restoration to the defects described above, but they are really not very distracting (and a talented restorer could touch them up without re-backing the poster).
