    Description

    INCREDIBLY STRANGE BUT BEAUTIFUL COMMUNIST MOVIE POSTER FROM THE SOVIET BLOC, NAMELY EAST GERMANY!
    ITS FOR A FILM CALLED VOM KING MIDAS BASED ON THE AESOP'S FABLE OF KING MIDAS WHO TOUCHED EVERYTHING AND IT TURNED TO GOLD.
    IT WAS DIRECTED BY GUNTHER STANKE AND STARRED HARTMUT BEHRENDE, PIT BUSSENIUS, JORG BUROWSKI AND STEPHAN MEYER AS "BACCHUS"  AND WAS RELEASED IN MAY OF 1963.  IT WAS FILMED IN QUEDLINBURG, SAXONY-ANHALT, EAST GERMANY.
    POSTER IS FOLDED AND HAS SLIGHT AGING ON THE FOLDS, BUT IS IN GREAT SHAPE OTHERWISE.  ITS PROOF THAT COMMUNISM IS DEAD, AT LEAST IN EAST GERMANY... AT LEAST FOR NOW.  RUSSIAN CULTURE IS ON THE CHOPPING BLOCK, HERE IS YOUR CHANCE TO GET A PIECE OF IT FOR WHATEVER REASON, I DON'T PRY.
    THANKS FOR LOOKING!
