An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked French Movie Poster (measures approximately 23" x 31"; known as an 'affiche' poster in France) (Learn More) Strogoff (also released as "Michel Strogoff"), the 1970 Eriprando Visconti French/German/Italian historical Russia adventure biography starring John Phillip Law (in the title role as Michel Strogoff), Mimsy Farmer, Hiram Keller, Delia Boccardo, and Kurt Meisel. Note that this movie is based on the novel, "Michael Strogoff: The Courier of the Czar" written by Jules Verne in 1876. Apparently, this was an incredibly popular action novel of that time, and over the years, there have been around a dozen film adaptations, both silent and sound! Sometimes the lead character's name was changed slightly so as to not sound foreign to the country that made the movie. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Yves Thos Important Added Info: Note that this is a rare "country of origin" poster for this French/Italian/German movie! Condition: very good. This poster was linenbacked, and one of the following is true: either the poster had minor defects, and was well backed, OR it had more significant defects, but they were extremely well restored, OR it had some very minor defects that were not completely restored, and are slightly noticeable. You can tell which of the above is the case for this particular poster by reading our "Pre-Restoration Defects & Quality of Restoration" description and also by looking at our "super-sized" image of the actual poster (we are the only major auction company we know of that gives accurate detailed pre-restoration information about linenbacked posters to our bidders, but we wish everyone did!). The poster had extremely tiny paper loss at the crossfold and very minor border wear. It had a few very minor border defects. Overall, the poster was in very good to fine condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was well backed, but it is very slightly "lifting" from the linen in a few tiny areas in the top border (any talented restorer could easily re-glue those areas without re-backing the poster).
