An Original 1972 (from the first release of this movie in Hungary) Vintage Theatrical Folded Hungarian Movie Poster (measures 15 3/4" x 22 1/2" [40 x 57 cm]) (Learn More)

12 Stulev (released in English-speaking countries as "Twelve Chairs"), the 1971 Leonid Gayday Russian comedy (based on the novel by Ilya Ilf & Yevgeni Petrov) starring Archil Gomiashvili, Sergey Filippov, Mikhail Pugovkin, Natalya Krachkovskaya, Natalya Vorobyova, and Glikeriya Bogdanova-Chesnokova. Note that there were an amazing 25 (at least) different movie and TV adaptations based on this same novel by Ilya Ilf and Yevgeni Petrov, with the first in 1933. At first, there were 13 chairs, but at some point, they lowered that to 12, and the remaining movie adaptations had 12! Surely this must be close to some sort of record for most adaptations for a non-classic novel!
If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube.

UPDATED 05/11/2016: Note that a knowledgeable collector pointed out that this poster is from the 1971 Twelve Chairs, and not the 1970 Mel Brooks version as we initilaly listed.


Condition: good to very good. There is a patch of surface paper loss at upper right. There are some pinholes around the edges. Some of them are torn or enlarged due to rough removal. There is minor writing at lower right.
