An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (measures 27" x 41") (Learn More) Pursuit to Algiers, the 1945 Roy William Neill North Africa detective mystery crime thriller ("Based on the Characters Created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle"; set on a transatlantic ocean liner sailing from New York to Europe; on board is an heir to a European throne, whose father was assassinated, and there are many on the ship who would do the same to the son, and Holmes and Watson make sure that doesn't happen) starring Basil Rathbone (as Sherlock Holmes), Nigel Bruce (as Doctor Watson), Marjorie Riordan, John Abbott, Martin Kosleck, Gerald Hamer, Rosalind Ivan, William Davis (billed as "Wee Willie Davis"), Rex Evans, and Leslie Vincent NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: very good. This poster was linenbacked, and one of the following is true: either the poster had very minor defects, and was well backed, OR it had more significant defects, but they were well restored, OR it had some minor defects that were not completely restored, and are somewhat noticeable. You can tell which of the above is the case for this particular poster by reading our "pre-restoration" description and also by looking at our "super-sized" image of the actual poster (we are the only major auction company we know of that gives accurate detailed pre-restoration information about linenbacked posters to our bidders, but we wish everyone did!). Poster had tiny areas of paper loss at the crossfolds, and tiny tears in the middle of the vertical foldline. There were smudges in the bottom border. Other than the above minor defects, the poster was in really nice condition prior to linenbacking! The poster is well linenbacked but the person who did so pretty much just mounted the poster and left the minor defects alone. They are not very noticeable or distracting, but if they bothered the new owner of the poster, a talented restorer could easily touch them up without rebacking the poster.
