Modern Times (United Artists, 1937). Fine+ on Linen. First Release Italian Foglio (27.5" X 39.5") R. Francisi
Artwork.
This is a fantastic first-time offer from Heritage. This would be Chaplin's final silent film and marked the last appearance of the "Little Tramp." Filmed between 1932 and 1936, it was directed, written, scored, and produced by Chaplin himself, and he also starred in his own "one-man show" with his current wife and kindred spirit Paulette Goddard. No one ever had as much success blending biting social commentary with pure slapstick. The poster had tape staining from the verso on the vertical fold behind the "Ch" of "Chaplin" and on the lower horizontal fold behind the "M" of "Modern." There were areas of tape staining in the borders as well. With the professional restoration the poster now displays beautifully.
