More About This Item This Turkish poster measures approximately 27" x 39" and was never machine folded! An unfolded poster is almost always far more difficult to find than a folded poster of the same title, and finding unfolded posters in excellent condition is even more difficult! Note that next to the lot number in the title of this auction we put "UF". The "UF" is a note for our shipping department to let them know the poster is stored "UnFolded". This allows us to more quickly find the item in our warehouse, therefore helping us to ship all orders as quickly as possible. Other items will have either a "UF" (UnFolded), "TF" (Tri-Folded), or "FF" (Fully Folded) next to the lot number, but please know that no matter which you buy (or if you buy any combination thereof), you only pay a single U.S. shipping charge (non-U.S. orders are charged the actual cost of shipping), as we can unfold tri-folded or fully folded posters and roll them in with unfolded posters, thus sending a single package.
Overall Condition: very good Notable Defects: There are creases around the edges of the poster, more so in the bottom area below the title; a few light creases throughout the poster. Otherwise, the poster is in pretty nice condition!
Explanation Of What This Condition Grade Means: This item has survived in pretty nice condition, but has some relatively minor imperfections. If they are within the image, they are not very distracting at all, or they may be in the blank borders, where they will not show when the item is displayed. We may have written a few words about those imperfections, but we may not have, as they are relatively minor, and you can likely see them by looking at our "super-sized" image of the actual item (if they are the type that CAN'T be seen in our super-sized image, like faint water staining or tape on the back, we ALWAYS describe that in words).
More About This Poster Type: Turkish movie posters are similar in size to U.S. one-sheets, and often measure 27" x 39". They often contain both the Turkish title and the U.S. title in large letters, but some have the English title in small letters, and some have no English title at all. They almost always have very different graphics from the U.S. posters, and sometimes they have artwork that appears on no other poster! They are printed on a high quality paper stock (in some ways as good or better than that used for 1960s U.S. one-sheets). Turkish posters are not dated, so it is difficult to know exactly when the poster was released, but it seems likely that most of them date from after the first U.S. release, but usually likely within a few years of the U.S. release (except in the case of a much later re-release). If we have a guess as to when the Turkish poster was released, we put it on the auction, but otherwise we put the original year of release. Please do not buy any Turkish posters unless you can live with the uncertainty as to when they were released.
