Note that there is conflicting information about this film. Some sources say that the main title was "Nina's Evening Prayer" and some say it was "Nina's Prayer" (the only poster that we have seen has the 2nd). Also, some sources say that Percy Stow directed the film and some say it was Wilfred Noy. If anyone knows more about this movie, please e-mail us and we will post it here. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned one example of this poster, which this is a "country of origin" poster for this English movie. The buyer of that poster has now reconsigned it to us, so this is still the only example of this poster we have ever auctioned! This poster is called a "vertical British quad". Few people know that in the early days of British quads, they were originally in a vertical format (but they measured 30" x 40", just as they continue to do throughout the years). This is because so few of them survive, almost surely because of the massive paper shortages in England during World War II! At some point, they changed orientation to be horizontal, and they have remained that way to the present day. What IS linenbacking?

The poster had minor wear on the folds and some small stains and small tears in parts of the blank borders. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The restorer backed the poster "in the European style", meaning that they did not do restoration to the defects described above. Learn More about condition grades
