Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Foreign Six-Sheet Movie Poster (measures 81" x 81") (Learn More) The Devils, the outrageous 1971 Ken Russell English fantasy horror thriller ("It is a true story, carefully documented, historically accurate, a serious work by a distinguished film maker. As such it is likely to be hailed as a masterpiece by many. But because it is explicit and highly graphic in depicting the bizarre events that occurred in France in 1634, others will find it visually shocking and deeply disturbing. We feel a responsibility to alert you to this. It is our hope that only the audience that will appreciate 'The Devils' will come to see it."; "Hell holds no surprises for them..."; "Hell will hold no surprises for them..."; "The Devils is not a film for everyone..."; based on a true story!; "Based on the play by John Whiting and 'The Devils of Loudun' by Aldous Huxley") starring Vanessa Redgrave, Oliver Reed, Dudley Sutton, Max Adrian, and Gemma Jones 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: This six-sheet was printed in 2 sections. Note that this poster was stamped "FOR" which means it was printed for use outside the United States (there would also have been posters stamped "DOM" for use within the United States). Often, the "FOR" posters would have a different (sometimes racier) image than that for the one used in the United States. Condition: fine. There are minor creases in the foldlines that aren't very noticeable or distracting as is common with six-sheets. This poster is probably one of the nicest condition six-sheets you will ever see!. Note that this week on eBay eMoviePoster is selling hundreds of large-sized movie posters. Some of these (mostly three-sheets and six-sheets) were large enough that they were printed on two or more separate sheets (this was because the printing presses at that time could not print larger single sheets). Such posters are designed to overlap, and they have marks at the top and bottom of each section that show where the poster's pieces should be placed so that the poster image is correct. This presents are problem for us in photography! If we put the pieces of poster together prior to photography, it is very time consuming, and difficult to do without possibly damaging the poster, even a little bit. So instead, we photograph each piece of the poster separately, and then digitally combine the separate images, overlapping them so that the image views about the same as it would if the poster pieces were correctly placed together. BUT SINCE THE PIECES ARE SHOT SEPARATELY, THERE IS THE POTENTIAL THAT THE INDIVIDUAL PICTURES WILL HAVE DIFFERENT LIGHTING AND/OR BE A SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT SIZE! So sometimes our images of multi-piece posters will give you the impression that part of the poster is a different darkness or size from the rest of the poster. THIS IS NOT THE CASE! It is just the result of photographing the pieces separately. If the pieces DID have a different color or size, we would note that in the auction description! Learn More about condition grades
