An Original Vintage Unfolded Single-Sided One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 26 3/4" x 39 1/2" [68 x 100 cm]) (Learn More) Schindler's List, the classic 1993 Steven Spielberg (winner of the Best Director Academy Award for this film) World War II (WWII) Nazi Germany military concentration camp persecution-of-Jews melodrama ("Whoever Saves One Life, Saves the World Entire."; "Based on the novel by Thomas Keneally"; winner of the Best Picture Academy Award; screenwriter Steve Zaillian did a wonderful job adapting and expanding Thomas Keneally's superb book, and the movie is a triumph on all levels with wonderful writing, acting, and direction) starring Liam Neeson (nominated for the Best Actor Academy Award for this film; in the title role as Oskar Schindler), Ben Kingsley, Ralph Fiennes (nominated for the Best Supporting Actor Academy Award for this film), Caroline Goodall, Jonathan Sagalle, and Embeth Davidtz NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Saul Bass Important Added Info: Note that this poster features artwork by Saul Bass! Bass submitted this design but it was not chosen for the movie. However, some one-sheets were printed with this art (no doubt to get the opinion of executives and others connected to the movie), and a few of those survive. Please bid knowing that this poster is a rare unreleased poster! Also note that this one-sheet measures 26 3/4" x 39 1/2" [68 x 100 cm], but it has not been trimmed (it was created that size). The poster certainly has a magnificent image, and one wonders why the studio executives did not choose to use it for the release of the movie! It will display wonderfully on the new owner's wall. Note that this is one of 113 unfolded one-sheets in this Part III of eMoviePoster.com's December Major Auction that were consigned to us by legendary French dealer/collector Dominique Besson (we auctioned 993 of his folded one-sheets in Part I of this auction, and we will auction the last 200 or so of his folded one-sheets in Part IV). Dominique Besson started collecting movie posters in 1981, and became a dealer in French and European posters in 1994, and has remained as a top dealer ever since! But in addition, 30 years ago, Dominique began collecting U.S. one-sheets, first those with Saul Bass art, and then adding Alfred Hitchcock posters, then Humphrey Bogart, and he finally ended up collecting in an amazing total of 47 different categories, purchasing the posters from all over the world! Now the time has come to sell this wonderful collection, and Dominique has chosen eMoviePoster.com to do so, through our auctions! As noted above, 113 of the unfolded one-sheets in this Part III come from this more remarkable collection. This is a very rare opportunity to purchase great unfolded one-sheets from one of the greatest one-sheet collections assembled! Condition: very good to fine. The poster was never folded. It has a few creases scattered in the image. Learn More about condition grades
