An Original Vintage Theatrical One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More)

Universal News Reel No. 466, the 1953 news short ("The Talk of the World"; "Anywhere Anytime"; "The Newspaper Newsreel with the Talking Reporter") featuring headlines such as "Oatis Returns", "President Honored", "Armed Forces", and "Jumping Frogs". Universal News Reel was one of the series of newsreels released by Universal Studios from at least the early 1920s through 1967. The earliest newsreels we know of were called "International News", and Universal made one-sheets for those that had a series of headlines on them, but no image except for a cool border design. In the 1930s and 1940s, they were called "Universal News Reel" and those also had headlines, and sometimes small images. Nearly all of them were filmed in black and white, and many were narrated by Ed Herlihy. In the 1950s and 1960s, they were called "Universal-International News". In 1976, the films' owner, MCA, made the unusual decision to turn over ownership of all of the newsreels to the National Archives. The decision effectively ended Universal's copyright claim, releasing the films into the public domain. Because royalties no longer have to be paid in order to broadcast them, Universal Newsreels have become a popular source of file footage in recent years.
If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.

Condition: fair. There are large areas of separation along some of the foldlines. There are tape stains on the front and back of some of the edges of the poster that are still somewhat sticky and make it difficult to open the poster. There is uneven discoloration throughout the poster and there is writing on the back of the poster that slightly bleeds through to the front at top.
