The film was first screened in Finland on the 7th March in 1952. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eYou are looking at a \"tour\" poster issued following that initial release of 1952. The poster has a printed date of 1953 - it is most unusual for Finnish movie posters to have a printed date on them. At the bottom there is a blank margin where you might normally expect printed text concerning times, dates, location and ticket price headings for hand-completion in respect of regional\/local screenings. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe dimensions of this poster are also non-standard. You can reasonably expect a normal Finnish \"tour-poster\" to conform to approx 24\" x 13\" but in this case the poster measures 27\" x 13.25\" - more akin to the Italian locandina. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eI\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003et is possible that this poster was intended for use as an \"insert\"-type poster or it could just be that the tour posters of this age were all this size - we have no other examples to compare with at this time. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIt has THREE folding creases - very unusual - but otherwise is in really Fine, unused condition. Minor handling crease upper right corner but no pinholes, no adhesive residue marks and obviously the lack of printed additions to the margin suggests that it escaped distribution. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eA fantastic item of movie memorabilia.
