Mata Hari

About the Item

Original Swedish film poster from the 1931. This film was broadly based on the life of Mata Hari, a Dutch exotic dancer and courtesan who was a German spy during World War I. Greta Garbo starred as the title role, alongside Ramon Novarro and Lionel Barrymore. For over thirty years this poster was in a private Swedish collection, and was originally obtained direct from the printer, and as a result is unfolded. This is an exceptionally rare Swedish poster, that has only surfaced a couple of times over the past 20 years.

    By Gosta Aberg
    Located in Devon, GB
    Considered the quintessential and definitive Bond film, the third instalment in EON Productions' James Bond series set the template for many of the subsequent films, with its tongue in cheek humour, extensive use of gadgets and technology and multiple foreign locations. The first Bond blockbuster, 1964s 'Goldfinger' was also the first Bond film to utilise a standalone pre-credits sequence, the first to employ a pop star to sing the theme song and the first to win an Academy Award. The plot saw 007 uncover a plot to contaminate the United States gold reserve at Fort Knox while investigating the smuggling activities of powerful gold magnate Auric Goldfinger. This stunning poster designed by prolific Swedish...

  • 'For Heaven's Sake' Original Vintage Movie Poster by Eric Rohman, Swedish, 1926
    By Eric Rohman
    Located in Devon, GB
    Printed in stunning stone lithography, this extremely rare poster was designed by prolific poster artist Eric Rohman for the original Swedish release of the action-packed 1926 American silent comedy 'For Heaven's Sake,' starring Harold Lloyd - one of the biggest stars of the silent era. After several years at Pathé, Lloyd made his debut at Paramount with this delightful slapstick classic, in which his trademark go-getting 'glasses' character appears as Uptown Boy J. Harold Manners, a millionaire playboy who falls for a Downtown Girl. With a dazzling finale featuring a double-decker bus careering through the city streets, the comedy of thrills was one of Lloyd's most successful films and the 12th highest grossing film of the silent era. Rohman's whimsical lunar poster design was inspired by a charming scene in which Harold woos his Downtown Girl (Jobyna Ralston) by the romantic light of a crescent moon - which is then revealed to be part of a neon sign for Crescent Laundry! Lushly printed in lapis blue, black and a contrasting orange, the enchanting Art Deco style artwork pictures the loved up...
