Description

The Time Machine (MGM, 1960). French Grande (47" X 63").
Combine the talents of novelist H.G. Wells, director George Pal, and poster artist Roger Soubie, and you have both a film and French poster that is a mind bending tour de force. Perhaps the finest adaptation of a Wells story ever filmed, The Time Machine won an Oscar for Special Effects, and is widely considered to be one of the finest sci-fi films of the 1960s. Soubie's gleaming, suspenseful French Grande was based on original designs by Reynold Brown, another illustrious poster artist. Seldom offered in this pristine condition, the poster shows only pinpoint cross fold separation, and a very small hole in the right background. Very Fine.
