If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this poster is double-sided, but not at all in the usual way! A theater owner needed a poster to advertise a showing of I Love Melvin, but they did not have one, so they took a regular poster for Chance Meeting, and they had someone paint an entire poster for I Love Melvin on the back side, in the Hungarian language. So the person who purchases this poster will receive an actual hand-painted original poster, that is on the back of another poster! We have provided an image of each side, but please realize that the winner of this auction will receive ONE poster! Also note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube.
UPDATED 09/30/2015: Note that we have updated the Important Added Info section. Condition: good to very good. The poster has various edge defects and the hand painted side of the poster shows signs of wear from being folded for some time and there are some areas of rubbing and smudges scattered throughout but otherwise it is in generally nice condition. The regular side has some pencil writing at lower right but is otherwise in generally nice condition as well. Please see our super-sized image to get a good sense of the condition of this item prior to placing a bid. Learn More about condition grades
