Aggiungi al carrelloNo Binding. Condizione: Very Good. 1st Edition. An uncommon Finnish, cinema-used film poster for the movie Make Mine Mink, starring Terry Thomas & Hattie Jacques. The film was released in Finland in February 1961 and had only the one theatrical release - this is a first screening poster. A standard-sized Finnish cinema-lobby poster, measuring 40cm x 60cm approx. Printed by Fotopaino Oy and signed in the plate by the poster artist. In VG condition but with a fair number of faults. The poster has been pinned rather enthusiastically with multiple pin-holes along all of the edges. It has been dismounted carelessly causing two larger holes (with loss) at the left side. There are four very short tears or nicks to the right edge of the poster. In addition, some handling marks and a couple of very minor stains at the white-coloured parts. Remains, however, an attractive 1960's film-poster featuring the incomparable Terry Thomas heavily. For best appreciation of the poster's condition please examine the high-resolution images which accompany this listing.
