Add to basketNo Binding. Condition: Near Fine. A cinema-used, Finnish poster for the 1948 movie SPRING IN PARK LANE, starring Anna Neagle and Michael Wilding. The film was first screened in Finland in March 1949 - appropriately, at the Ritz Cinema, Helsinki - and there were no further theatrical releases. A big winner at the box office it is… apparently one of the highest-grossing British movies of all time. It obviously enjoyed a long run in Finland because - based on presentation only (I have never seen another example) - this does appear to be a reprinting from the era but this is an educated guess only. It could be a first screening poster. The poster was printed by Norbladd & Pettersson and measures 23.5 inches x 16.25 inches (60cm x 41cm) approx, Standard Finnish A2. Extremely thin paper (rule of thumb for Finnish posters - the older they are the thinner the paper). Condition: C8 (VG to Fine) This poster has a folding crease down near the bottom edge and a second across the right corner but none to the middle. Not unduly noticeable. Appears to have been mounted with a small tack at the top (middle) and pulled through at dismounting - - hole at that place above the top sheet-music illustration. No further pinholes. Small nick to bottom edge (less than 1cm). Minor handling creases, mostly to bottom corners. In super condition otherwise considering its frailty and remarkably clean. A lovely 1940's poster of an historic movie and cinema posters for this film are extremely rare. As well as describing the condition of our posters meticulously, we also take great care to research them and establish and provide accurate information concerning dates of issue, theatrical runs etc. Authenticity guaranteed! We are always happy to answer any questions about our listings. We describe all noticeable faults in our posters but for best appreciation of condition please examine the high-resolution images which accompany the listing.
