An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Three-Sheet Movie Poster (3sh; measures 41" x 81" [104 x 206 cm]) (Learn More) Das Leben von Adolf Hitler (released in the U.S. as "The Crimes of Adolf Hitler" and "Life of Adolf Hitler"), the 1961 Paul Rotha German World War II (WWII) Nazi military biographical war crimes documentary narrated by Paul Rotha, Horst Fleck, Hans Paetsch, Heinz Piper, and Leo Genn NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned this three-sheet! Note that this is a poster or lobby card that was printed by MGM for a European movie that they distributed in the U.S.. Somewhere in the early 1960s, MGM apparently made a huge "trade" deal with European movie distributors. From the early 1960s to the late 1960s, MGM released 100 or more non-U.S. movies in the U.S. under the MGM logo (some dating back to the 1950s), and in return, they apparently gave 100 or more MGM movies (from the 1950s and early 1960s) to those European distributors to release in Europe. All of the posters from both sets of releases have a very similar type of somewhat garish, very colorful artwork, and some have an MGM logo that is different from than on other MGM movies of the same time period, which makes it likely that those (with different logos) are from re-releases. None of these posters (except for the very first few of them) have any dates on them. Over the years, I have seen many of these posters (from both types) sold as first release, but, as stated above, some of these are mid to late 1960s re-releases, and the ones from U.S. movies are "international" posters (or lobby cards) that were used in non-U.S. countries. If anyone knows more about these MGM releases, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Also note that this three-sheet was printed in 2 sections designed to overlap. Condition: fair. There are many creases, several tears, and some areas of tiny paper loss along the folds that were on the outside when the poster was fully folded. There are some creases, smudges, and tiny tears on some folds, and some tiny paper loss at some crossfolds. There are pinholes and paper loss around the edges. Learn More about condition grades
