An Original Undated (probably late 1940s; from the first release of this movie in Italy) Vintage Theatrical Folded Italian Movie Poster (measures 39" x 68" in two panels) (Learn More) Dawn Express, the 1942 Albert Herman World War II (WWII) military airplane aviation fighter pilot action thriller starring Michael Whalen, Anne Nagel, William Bakewell, Constance Worth, and Hans Heinrich von Twardowski NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Giorgio Olivetti Important Added Info: Note that this Italian one-panel was printed in 2 sections, which makes it a most unusual poster! Immediately after World War II, Italy began showing non-Italian movies, and almost all of the posters surviving from that time period have been very unusual sizes (it seems that they did not settle on the 39" x 55" size until somewhere at the very end of the 1940s. Some of the other posters we have auctioned from this period have been in more than one section, but this poster is even more unusual, because they solely printed the bottom section by itself (it measures 13 1/2" x 39"), and the large top section measures 39" x 55" (which leads us to think this was just before they went to the standard 39" x 55" size). If anyone knows more about this poster, please e-mail us and we will post it here. 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.
