Description

The 39 Steps (Gaumont, 1935). Very Fine- on Linen. Three Sheet (41.5" X 79.5").
Heritage has not sold a three sheet for this title in over ten years and this appears to be the same copy and probably the only known copy! This very rare poster is a beautiful stone litho creation designed to promote one of Alfred Hitchcock's greatest British films. Robert Donat plays a man caught up in a web of deceit and intrigue when he is accused of a murder he did not commit. He spends the entirety of the film trying to outrun the authorities as he finds himself more and more involved in a plot against his homeland. Professional restoration has addressed slight fold wear, thin misfolds, and small tears and chips. The top border and the "39" of the title have been airbrushed. For all great Hitchcock fans out there, make sure you bid on this true rarity!
