Berlin Express (1948)

One-Sheet

27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]

Good to Very Good, linen-backed.  Prior to restoration and linen backing, the poster was in good condition. There were a few defects scattered along the borders and foldlines/crossfolds, and there were one or more areas of foldline and/or crossfold separation. Many of the tears or other defects as described above had been repaired with several pieces of tape from the back. Careful restoration (removal of tape, touch up to foldlines) was carried out but the piece out at bottom left was left as it was and the defects prior to linen backing are now barely noticeable and the poster displays very well!

 

TOURNEUR, Jacques

"Fear rides beside every passenger on the Berlin Express!...Trapped on a train of terror!" Exciting cold war espionage thriller, about a multinational group of train passengers involved in a post-World War II Nazi assassination plot. Shot on location in a ravaged post-war Berlin like a film noir by master stylist Tourneur.
