An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Polish Movie Poster (measures approximately 23" x 33") (Learn More) Medea, the 1969 (released in the U.S. in 1971) Pier Paolo Pasolini Italian/French/German historical Greek tragedy melodrama (based on the play by Euripides) starring Maria Callas (in the title role as Medea), Massimo Girotti, Laurent Terzieff, Giuseppe Gentile, Margareth Clementi, Annamaria Chio, and Paul Jabara. Note that star Maria Callas was a legendary opera singer. She retired in the mid 1960s and planned to marry mega rich Aristotle Onassis, but he dumped her for Jackie Kennedy, and a despondent Callas made this movie, a non-singing role, and her only movie, but it did not do well at the box office, and she made an attempt to resume her opera career, but her voice failed her.

This poster was linenbacked, and one of the following is true: either the restorer did a good job, but you can see signs of the restoration from inches away (since most people look at posters framed on a wall from at least a few feet away, we don't feel this is a defect, but we feel it should be noted). OR you can't see the restoration because it was so well done, but the poster had fairly significant defects. OR no restoration was performed, but the defects are not major, and restoration could be done to the poster without re-backing it. See below for its pre-restoration defects (we are the only major auction company we know of that gives accurate detailed pre-restoration information to our bidders, but we wish everyone did!). Poster had creases and some tears on some foldlines, and tiny paper loss at the crossfolds. It had a few very minor smudges and creases, as well as some border defects, including a 1" x 2" area of paper loss in the top right corner). The poster is well linenbacked, and the restored defects are not very noticeable. Learn More about condition grades
