FRINE, COURTESAN OF THE ORIENT [1954] Original French Grande Poster *** RARE ***

Description

FRINE, COURTESAN OF THE ORIENT [1954]
PHRYNE, COURTESANE D'ORIENT
FRINE, CORTIGIANA D'ORIENTE
This is an original large French Grande poster of which we have seen no other specimen.
It is folded, as originally distributed.
There is a Canadian censor approval stamp to the right of the title.
Graded Fine+ by the reputable source from which it was acquired.
This would be an outstanding restoration project, though it would also present well as-is properly framed.
Mario Bonnard was the director, but a then unknown Sergio Leone was his assistant director. I believe Leone only served such a function a few years earlier on Quo Vadis.
Outstanding opportunity.
