Jeffrey Dell's The Dark Man, the 1951 Jeffrey Dell English crime murder film noir ("Set in one of Britain's Forbidden Areas..... this is one of the most fascinating films ever screened!"; "He's tall, dark and... a killer!"; about a criminal who kills two people in a remote area, but has the misfortune that his crimes were witnessed by a pretty young amateur actress, and the rest of the movie is concerned with him trying to kill her before she can tell what she knows to the authorities) starring Edward Underdown, Maxwell Reed (in the title role as The Dark Man), Natasha Parry, William Hartnell, and Barbara Murray

Artist: Eric W. Pulford
Important Added Info: Note that this is a rare "country of origin" poster for this English movie! Also note that this poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a light paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (it means that the poster must be handled carefully, as the backing does not give it much added strength, but it is similar to having an unrestored poster, and yet it has been properly preserved). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards.

Condition: good to very good. The entire poster had darkened, more so along the foldlines. There were creases and tears on parts of some foldlines and there was tiny paper loss at some crossfolds and greater paper loss at others. Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to paperbacking. The restorer paperbacked the poster "in the European style", meaning that they did little restoration to the defects described above.
