Description
RARE Belgian Original Release Movie Poster On Linen –
Roxie Hart (1942),
Ginger Rogers, Adolphe Menjou, George Montgomery, William Wellman, Broadway Musical CHICAGO, Artwork by A.L.
Here is a rare and interesting original Belgian movie poster from the first release of William Wellman’s crime comedy,
Roxie Hart
. Based on the 1926 play
Chicago
by Maurine Dallas Watkins, this was the 2nd film adaptation. It starred Ginger Rogers as Roxie (later portrayed by Renee Zellweger in the musical), a showgirl who confesses to murder in the hope that it would propel her faltering show business career. This poster is from the original release of the film in Belgium. It was most likely released shortly after the war in Europe (1946 or 1947) since in is printed on the back of an ordnance map which was common practice due to paper shortages. It is linenbacked and in very good condition for a poster nearly 75 years old and the artwork is unique to the Belgian release. It rarely comes up for sale or auction and would make a great addition to anyone’s classic movie poster collection.
