    Description

    Hi, here is an rare and unique piece of English cinema memorabilia. Perfect for the collector of WWII movies. This is a difficult to find, 100% authentic and 100% original British made movie theatre poster. It is a UK one sheet (40" tall by 27" wide), that was made in the UK for the film's distribution to commonwealth countries. UK one sheets were usually a little smaller than USA ones. This poster actually dates from 1958 for the Rank Organization war film, "Sea of Sand".
    The poster shows some signs of use from theatre display, such as pin hole damage/paper picks; some fold wear and some extra lighter vertical folds from the poster exchange; there is some minor poster exchange writing on the back (but this does not appear to bleed through). It is overall somewhere around the VG+ to Fine Minus condition range for being 63 years old. Condition grades are subjective, please study photos to make your own grade judgement. It is sold as is. All sales are final. The artwork is bright, colorful and very painterly.
    This classic British war movie starred Richard Attenborough (Jurassic Park, The Great Escape, Miracle on 34th Street); John Gregson (Treasure Island, The Lavender Hill Mob, The Longest Day); Michael Craig (Svengali, Modesty Blaise) and Vincent Ball (Where Eagles Dare, Breaker Morant) in a tale concerning the North African conflict of World War II, all that sand, sweat, heat and hell.
    This movie theater memorabilia is NOT a copy, it is NOT a cheap or recent DVD/video poster and it is NOT a reproduction of any kind. It is 100% authentic. It would make a fabulous addition to someone's collection, a super conversation piece and a wonderful decoration for any home theater, den, office or man cave wall. Also the perfect gift for the military collector or historian.
