Lot Description:[MOVIE POSTER] - XIVth Olympiad. The Glory Of Sport
1948 Colour lithograph, 102 x 69cm. Linen-backed. Text includes “J. Arthur Rank presents... Filmed entirely in magnificent Technicolor. Produced by Castleton Knight. Specially flown to Australia by QEA and BOAC.“ -
Notes:The rare Australian release large format poster. Finally, the Olympics in glorious Technicolour! The red, white and blues pop, the track and field events practically glow, and for a film from 1948, it looks rather modern. The film covers both the Winter (St. Moritz) and Summer (London) Olympic Games in 1948.
