If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that we have no idea if this poster is from 1925, or from a 1930s re-release, or even possibly from a post-war 1940s re-release. If anyone knows more about when this poster is from, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Please do not bid on this poster unless you can accept the uncertainty as to when it is from.

Note that it is difficult to accurately date Italian posters, and some unmarked re-release posters can be extremely difficult to distinguish from first releases, so please bear that in mind before you place a bid. We used our best information to date this poster, but we can't always guarantee that the Italian posters we sell are not from an unmarked re-release, but this will only prove to be true in a very tiny number of cases.

What IS linenbacking? Learn More

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The poster was folded down the middle, and there are thumb tack holes around the edges. 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, but they are really not very distracting (and a talented restorer could touch them up without re-backing the poster).
