Artist: Eric Pulford Important Added Info: Note that this is a "country of origin" poster for this English movie! It is one of a remarkable collection of SIXTEEN "country of origin" British quads we are currently auctioning, which includes some wonderful ones, and ten of them are from the 1950s and six are from the early 1960s, and all of them are posters that virtually never are offered for sale or at auction, and many of them are ones we have never auctioned before! This is an incredibly rare opportunity to acquire one or many of these ultra rare "country of origin" posters that may not come up again for many years! Also note that this poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (except somewhat heavier). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards, and lobby cards. What IS paperbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. Prior to paperbacking, the poster had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds and pretty minor fold wear. It had some pinholes and stains in the blank borders, with tiny paper loss in two places in the bottom border, and paper loss in the top right blank corner. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to paperbacking. Someone paperbacked the poster and performed restoration to the image areas only, likely rightfully assuming the border defects will not show when the poster is framed.
