An Original 1947 (from the first release of this movie in Italy) Vintage Theatrical Italian One-Sheet Movie Poster (measures 26 1/2" x 38 3/4") (Learn More) Passage to Marseille, the 1944 Michael Curtiz France World War II (WWII) military prisoners-fighting-Nazis Devil's Island action melodrama (this is the extremely convoluted movie about French convicts escaping from Devil's Island to fight for Free France in World War II, with flashbacks within flashbacks within flashbacks; "From a Novel by Charles Nordhoff & James Norman Hall", the authors of "Mutiny on the Bounty") starring Humphrey Bogart, Claude Rains, Michele Morgan, Philip Dorn, Sydney Greenstreet, Helmut Dantine, Peter Lorre, and George Tobias NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: good. The poster was "starch backed", which means that it was moistened with a special starch solution, attached to a backing, allowed to dry, and then the poster had touch up while it was backed, and afterward, the backing was removed. This particular poster had darkened throughout, and there were areas of paper loss at the crossfolds, and creases and scuffs on the foldlines. There were some creases in the bottom center of the image. There were many pinholes and stains around the edges of the poster. The person who did the starch backing did little restoration to the above defects (it appears the primary reason for the starch backing was to stabilize the poster and make it easier to handle, but without mounting it to a backing). The poster still completely looks and feels like an unrestored poster, and yet it can be handled. Learn More about condition grades
