A NIGHT AT THE OPERA 1936 Belgian Film Movie Poster Marx Brothers

About the Item

Original first-year-of-release Belgian film poster for the Marx Bros classic A Night at the Opera featuring arguably the best design for the title. An extremely rare 'pre-War' poster. Prior to World War II, Belgian posters were much larger than the ones from after the war, and they are extremely rare because during WWII, there was a massive paper shortage in Belgium, and they took virtually every poster and map, and printed new posters on the backs of them. This vintage movie poster has been professionally linen-backed and is sized 23 1/2 x 32 3/4 inches (plus a little with the linen). It will be sent rolled (unframed). Year: 1936 first-year-of-release in Belgium Poster Type: Belgian Style: - Art By: - Rolled/Folded/Other: Rolled Linen-backed
