Important Added Info: This poster is one of the only multi-piece posters from the "S2 Art Group", printed in 2 sections, because of its very large size. This company bought 100-year-old lithograph presses, completely refurbished them, and created stone slabs that allowed them to make nearly perfect replicas of classic movie posters (and in some cases making a stone litho version of a poster that was not originally a stone litho!). They were printed in exactly the same way the posters were originally printed (re-creating them down to the finest detail within the art, and even including the tiny writing from the bottom of the poster). These posters were printed between 1997 and 2003, and were NOT printed when the movies were originally released. It is super high quality and measures 38 1/2" x 87 1/4" [98 x 222 cm] (Learn More). Note that, in addition to the one-sheets that they recreated, they also did recreation three-sheets of King Kong, Metropolis, and Casablanca. Each of those was printed on three one-sheet sized pieces of the exact same paper used for the one-sheets, designed to overlap (just as three-sheets were originally printed many decades ago). Those three three-sheet recreations are really remarkable and are incredible to view in person (I have seen them all linenbacked and framed). Finally, note that this S2 re-creation comes with a "certificate of authenticity" from "The RE Society Ltd.", stating when the poster was produced, and detailing the methods used. Condition: fine. The three pieces of the poster are in excellent condition (see above)! Learn More about condition grades
