THE EXORCIST

One-Sheet (27" x 41")
Very Fine- Folded; Artist Bill Gold
Warner Bros., 1974

This simple yet effective vintage 1930s art deco advertising poster for the luxury watch company Eterna is unique in that even though the poster itself is Swiss, the artist Fred Dubois is French and the poster is a German language version.

A folded poster in good condition with sporadic creasing, minor wear on the vertical fold, and some smudging in the lower borders. There is also a faint line just below and to the right of the center image, as well as two faint scratches in the lower right in purple.

The first horror film to ever be nominated for an Oscar, William Friedkin's troubling tale of demonic possession is considered one of the greatest films ever made in that genre. Its reputation certainly wasn't hurt by reports of preview audience members running out of the theater screaming and viewers suffering nausea.
