Finland: Trinty Production, 1950. 1st Edition . No Binding. Fine. An original and extremely rare Finnish A2 one-sheet film poster for the Documentary Film "Savage Africa" a.k.a. "Congolaise" from 1950. Commissioned by the French Government originally to make a record of the native tribes in French Equatorial Africa, it was controversially edited to present as an exhibition of female nudity and gorilla hunting. As such, possibly one of the very first Blaxploitation movies ever. The film was screened for the first time in Finland in November 1950 and there were no further theatrical releases following its initial run. The poster is an offset print made by Kartapalvelu Oy of Finland, dated 1950 and with the artist's (printed) signature at the right about midway. Measures 23.5" x 16" approx. Pinholes to each of the corners, some minor creasing at the edges in places but overall in outstanding condition, as a cinema-used item it has to be Near Mint. A superb example… Read More

Finland: Kosmos-Filmi Oy, 1934. 1st Edition . No Binding. Fine. A fascinating Finnish A2 "small" one-sheet, cinema poster for the classic Soviet-era comedy-musical Jolly Fellows, aka "Moscow Laughs" and "Jazz Comedy" directed by Grigori Aleksandrov. The film was made in 1934 and was hugely successful. It's director Aleksandrov, Sergei Eisenstein's long-time co-director, won numerous accolades and attracted the attention and praise of Graham Greene amongst other notable critics. The film was first screened in Finland in 1934 by Kosmos-Filmi Oy, a distributor and importer of Soviet films. No subsequent releases or even screenings are recorded. However, Kosmos-Filmi requested a new inspection from the Finnish Film Classification board in 1958. We believe this poster was created at that time to accompany a new screening, possibly in one of the Russian-owned cinemas located in Helsinki at that time. Accordingly, the print-run (and distribution) of this poster would… Read More

Finland: Columbia Pictures Corporation, 1953. 1st Edition . No Binding. Very Good. First Printing. A vintage, original, and quite unique Finnish cinema-used poster for the first screening in Finland of the movie, SIREN OF BAGDAD starring Paul Henreid. The film was first screened in Finland in 1953 with no further subsequent releases. Approximate size is 60 cm by 40 cm, standard Finnish A2 format. SIGNS OF USE: the poster has centre-folds in both directions and pinholes to the corners and centre - quite large holes at the bottom corners. To the verso of the poster is a large original drawing for another movie - The Red Beret. That film was screened in Finland in 1954. Unfortunately the drawing is not signed and therefore likely to be the work of a cinema employee pressed to come up with something due to the absence of a real poster for an imminent screening. At the bottom is written (in Finnish) "Tuesday 8pm" suggesting it was actually used. Overall, in VG condition and the drawing on the… Read More
