RARE Belgian Original Release Movie Poster -
Seven Sinners
(1940),
Marlene Dietrich, John Wayne, Albert Dekker, Broderick Crawford, Mischa Auer, Tay Garnett, Universal Drama / Romance
Here is a rare and beautiful original Belgian release poster for Tay Garnett's romantic drama about Americans in the south Pacific,
Seven Sinners
. The first of three films which teamed Marlene Dietrich and John Wayne for Universal, here she plays another saloon singing femme fatale. Dietrich clearly gets star billing above the title in this poster from the 1st release of the movie. Though the film was produced in 1940, this poster is from the film's original Belgian release shortly after the end of WWII. It probably dates from late 1945 or early 1946 since it is printed on the reverse of a military ordnance map and it bears the Universal logo which became obsolete after mid 1946 when Universal merged with International. The film was later re-released in the Fifties with a poster featuring completely different artwork. This poster is in very good untrimmed condition with stunning artwork that is unique to this Belgian release. It seldom comes up for sale or auction and would make a great addition to your "golden age" movie poster collection.
