Artist: Reynold Brown Important Added Info: Note that these posters are from a set of six very unusual special French posters! Each measures 27 1/2" x 39 1/2", and each is horizontal, and each was printed in Italy (by "Rotolito", who printed high quality posters used in the United States) and each is printed on a glossy heavy stock paper, similar to that used for U.S. half-sheets and inserts! The posters are undated. All six of the images were done by famed poster artist Reynold Brown. Five of these six images were used on the U.S. roadshow three-sheet, and one of them does not appear to have ever been used on a U.S. poster. Condition: very good. Learn More about condition grades
