    Description

    Original, linen-backed, 1925 Russian export poster for the landmark Russian film "The Battleship Potemkin", directed by Sergei Eisenstein. Eisenstein's editing in this film revolutionized the way films are made, and the "Odessa Steps" sequence is one of the most famous scenes in film history. Original release posters for this film are very rare! This Russian export poster was printed in Russia, but was intended to be used when the movie was shown in other (non-Russian speaking) countries. It was created with a 5" blank area at the bottom where the country that was showing the movie could print in the title and credits (or they could also print in play dates and theater names).
    Size of the poster is 23 3/4" x 35 3/4" inches (linen border extends about 1.5" all around)
    Overall Condition is very good. The poster had very tiny paper loss at the crossfolds and very minor wear on the folds. It had paper loss in the top blank corners and someone taped paper to the back of those areas, and the tape darkened slightly. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well! P
