An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Mexican Movie Poster (measures approximately 27" x 37" [69 x 94 cm]) (Learn More) Abismos de Pasion (literally translates to "Abyss of Passion"), the 1954 Luis Bunuel Mexican doomed-romance romantic love triangle melodrama starring Irasema Dilian (as Catalina, the substitute Catherine), Jorge Mistral (as Alexjandro, the substitute Heathcliff), Lilia Prado, Ernesto Alonso, Francisco Reiguera, Hortensia Santovena, Jaime Gonzalez Quinones, and Luis Aceves Castaneda. Note that director Luis Bunuel took the basic plot of Emily Bronte's "Wuthering Heights", and transferred it to Mexico, and gave the characters Mexican names, but otherwise, he pretty much followed the book!

Artist: Juan Antonio Vargas Ocampo Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned three examples of this Mexican poster, which is a "country of origin" poster for this Mexican movie! We are also currently auctioning the "export" Mexican poster in a separate auction. This is one of six Mexican posters we are currently auctioning that are for movies from the greatest Mexican director ever, Luis Bunuel, which we are currently auctioning in six separate auctions! This is a rare opportunity to purchase any or all of these six country of origin Bunuel Mexican posters. Note that this linenbacked Mexican poster (and 98 others, which we are auctioning in 99 separate auctions) comes from a remarkable collection of Mexican posters which was assembled over many decades! We auctioned the first 81 of these in our August 2023 Major Auction, and those included many great rarities, and they sold for as much as $2,505, but there were also a number of great bargains that sold for well under the cost of linenbacking alone! NOW, we are auctioning an additional 99 posters from this amazing collection, which again includes many great rarities, including 22 Mexican posters with art by Ernesto Garcia Cabral! There will again be the chance for great buys in these honest no reserve auctions, and many of these posters may not be offered again for many years, if ever! What IS linenbacking?

The poster had some light ink transfer in the bottom solid black area (there is the outline of the letters from the top of the same area). Otherwise, the poster was in excellent condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but you can see signs of the ink transfer described above.
