Collector's Notes
The story behind this original poster, from its artwork and release context to the details collectors look for.
Condition: Very Good to Excellent.
Linen-backed!
Free shipping within the UK. A low flat rate for the rest of the world.
Size: 121 cm x 159 cm (47.5 in x 62.75 in)
A guaranteed original French movie poster from 1970 for "L'ours at la Poupee" (released in English as "The Bear and the Doll"), starring Brigitte Bardot, Jean-Pierre Cassel, Daniel Ceccaldi, Georges Claisse, and Patrick Gilles.
Note that this poster has been linen-backed (see FAQs). Prior to being linen-backed, the poster had tiny paper loss at just a few cross-folds and a very small number of creases, scuffs, and tiny tears on parts of some folds. Overall, the poster was in very good to excellent condition prior to linen-backing and displays really well, especially as it is now approaching its 50th birthday.
This is a large and really elegant poster. It will look superb as a focal point in a light and chic interior.
We only sell guaranteed original movie posters. We do not sell reproductions.
Note: This poster is priced unframed. Photos showing framed and 'in room' images are for illustration only. Please check our hi-res images and the sizing information shown above.

Original Poster Buying Guide
Authenticity & Original Posters
Art of the Movies specialises exclusively in authentic original cinema posters issued for theatrical release. These are not modern reproductions or decorative reprints.
Original posters were produced in limited numbers for cinemas to promote films during their initial release. As a result, surviving examples have become highly collectible artefacts of film history.
Each poster offered on this site is an authentic vintage piece created for cinema exhibition and carefully selected for collectors and film enthusiasts.
Condition & Age
Vintage cinema posters were working promotional materials used by theatres and distributors. As such, signs of age and handling are normal and form part of their character.
Condition is carefully assessed for each poster and reflected in the description. Where relevant, notes may include details such as light handling wear, fold lines from original cinema distribution, or minor edge wear.
Any significant restoration or conservation work will always be clearly stated.
Poster Formats & Dimensions
Original cinema posters were produced in a variety of standard formats depending on the country and era of release.
Common formats include UK Quad, US One Sheet and other theatrical display sizes. Exact dimensions for each poster are provided in the product details where relevant.
These historic formats are part of the distinctive character of original film advertising.
Framing Options
Many posters can be supplied professionally framed as an optional extra.
Framing is carried out using archival-quality materials designed to protect and display vintage paper safely. Frames are prepared to complement the artwork while maintaining a clean, gallery-style presentation.
Where framing is available, it can be selected before purchase.
Packaging & Delivery
Posters are carefully packaged to ensure safe delivery.
Unframed posters are typically shipped rolled safely packaged within our extra-thick custom-made tubes. Framed pieces are securely boxed using protective materials to minimise movement during transit.
Orders are dispatched with tracking where available.
