Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned three examples of this poster, and only one in the last 21 years! Also note that this is a poster that was printed by MGM for a European movie that they distributed in the U.S.. Somewhere in the early 1960s, MGM apparently made a huge "trade" deal with European movie distributors. From the early 1960s to the late 1960s, MGM released 100 or more non-U.S. movies in the U.S. under the MGM logo (some dating back to the 1950s), and in return, they apparently gave 100 or more MGM movies (from the 1950s and early 1960s) to those European distributors to release in Europe. All of the posters from both sets of releases have a very similar type of somewhat garish, very colorful artwork, and some have an MGM logo that is different from than on other MGM movies of the same time period, which makes it likely that those (with different logos) are from re-releases. None of these posters (except for the very first few of them) have any dates on them. Over the years, I have seen many of these posters (from both types) sold as first release, but, as stated above, some of these are mid to late 1960s re-releases, and the ones from U.S. movies are "international" posters (or lobby cards) that were used in non-U.S. countries.

Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. It was apparently removed from the stretcher too quickly, as it is slightly rippled around the edges, but it is mostly noticeable in the excess linen. The restorer backed the poster "in the European style", meaning that they did not do restoration to the defects described above. Learn More about condition grades
