If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we can't say for certain when this poster is from, but it is certainly from the first Italian release, likely from right after World War II. Note that Italian posters from the first few years after World War II are among the most rare posters there are! Apparently, there were still major paper shortages in Italy, and few posters were printed, and most were recycled. This is an extremely rare first release Italian poster from after the war, and like most Italian posters from that time, it is an unusual size (they did not standardize sizes for several more years). It is basically a "horizontal 3-sheet", and it is clearly a "teaser" type poster, and it certainly has a very interesting image! If anyone knows more about this poster, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Condition: fair. The poster is very fragile and has separation, tears, and some tiny paper loss on parts of many foldlines. The poster is in urgent need of expert professional restoration. But the poster is mostly "all there", and after linenbacking by a talented professional, the poster will look fantastic, and it will likely require little paint restoration within the image. Please do not bid on this poster unless you can accept its defects described above or are willing to pay to have them properly restored! Learn More about condition grades
