THE SPY WHO CAME IN FROM THE COLD Original 3 Sheet Movie Poster Richard Burton
Original hand litho Australian three sheet approximately 40" x 80" folded as issued, folded as issued, good – very good condition, edge wear and fold wear, pinholes, some dragged leaving corner paper loss, slight paper loss at cross points (see enlarged photo). This three sheet is in three separate panels.
The poster comes from a collection of three sheet movie posters recently discovered in country Victoria. Some of the three sheets in the collection had the panels glued together so they could be easily displayed and this will be specifed in the condition description. Condition varies on the posters as they are very large posters but they display well. Linen backing would easily address any issues that they may have.
NOTE: Australian three sheets were printed in very small quantities and few have survived. These posters are among the rarest of all Australian posters.
