An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Window Card Movie Poster (WC; measures 14" x 22" [36 x 56 cm]) (Learn More) Orson Welles' Journey Into Fear, the 1942 Norman Foster & Orson Welles World War II (WWII) military crime film noir ("The master dramatist turns his hand to mystery... and gives the screen a new conception of pyramiding suspense. - The gripping, breath-taking melodrama of an American engineer in the Middle East, possessing a secret the Nazis want... snared by a night club beauty, stalked by a ruthless killer whose relentless menace mounts terror by terror to one of the most thrilling climaxes on the screen."; "Screen Play by Orson Welles and Joseph Cotten"; "From the Novel by Eric Ambler"; about a U.S. Navy engineer who ends up pursued by Nazi agents while on a ship during World War II and he is involved with the mysterious Colonel Haki, who may or may not be helping him) starring Joseph Cotten, Dolores Del Rio, Ruth Warrick, Agnes Moorehead, Jack Durant, Everett Sloane, and Orson Welles (as Colonel Haki, a character who appeared again in the 1944 film The Mask of Dimitrios). Note that there is much about this movie that is shrouded in mystery! It was made while RKO was learning how poorly Citizen Kane and The Magnificent Ambersons were doing, and by the time it was released, Welles had been fired. Before it was completed, Welles was ordered to re-cut the beginning and end, to shoot more material, and to add a voice-over by Joseph Cotten! It is a certainty that Welles was the producer and co-screenwriter with Joseph Cotten, but many people believe that Welles actually directed it as well, although others think he only directed parts of it (Welles himself said that he did not direct any of it, but he was known to not always tell the truth!).

Often window cards would be folded across the middle, because that would make them 11" x 14", and they could then be sent with standard folded posters. Most collectors put an added value on a window card that has never been folded. Condition: good to very good. The card has darkened around the edges and in the top blank area. There are stains in those same areas, with a vertical thin brown line of staining that extends down the top center of the card and extends through the woman's cheek and into the right of the center of the "We" of "Welles". There is a scratch in the "F" of "FEAR" and a scuff mark running across the top of Cotten's suit and in the background to the left of it.
