NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this poster is extremely rare. We have only auctioned it once before, and that example was linenbacked, and it auctioned for $311. This poster is printed on the back of a map or part of another poster! Why is this? During World War II, there were massive paper shortages in Belgium. Where Belgian movie posters had previously been approximately 23" x 32", there was such a shortage of paper that not only did they often have to print them on the back of other posters or maps, but during World War II, the size of the posters shrank dramatically, with some of them as small as 11" x 15". This situation continued even after World War II, until around 1946 or 1947, when they began making Belgian movie posters in a size of roughly 14" x 22", which became the standard size, and continued for decades! The posters like these that are from during World War II or immediately after, and which are printed in a small size (often on the back of other posters or maps) are INCREDIBLY rare (surely they did not print many, and surely many of them were soon recycled themselves! Note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: good to very good. Fortunately, the poster has mostly dark colors throughout, so there is very little bleed-through from the map on the back. There are vertical lines on the back of the right of the poster that slightly bleed through to the front. There are stains in the top blank area where a snipe was attached (there are some remnants of the paper snipe in the top left), and around the edges of the poster, with a tax stamp in the bottom right corner. The poster was lightly folded vertically and there are several light horizontal folds as well. See our image to get a good sense of the exact condition of this poster.
