This is the best 6 sheet (yes, better than Phantom and better the Franky! )

Certainly is cool, but better than FRANKY?
I think you might be in the minority there...

Ron Borst agrees with me (not like he is biased or anything

) and that's all that matters

Ted,

This is one of the most stunning 6 sheets for PHANTOM ever produced. Thanks for reviving the image in this thread!!

Ted..

this is beautiful, too! (for us Chaney fans..

)

I see the art is by Martinati, but is this more an art print or an actual movie poster? It reminds me of a silkscreen, too.

The lack of any production credits has me curious.

Whatever it is.. me wants one..lol !!

Beats the snot out of me.

I couldn't find any examples of this design with credits.
But then again, I didn't look too hard.

I remember first seeing a print of this other 6 sheet, done for PHANTOM, when I was in college (which I bought). What caught my eye was the intense blue color, and red highlights and the fact that the Phantom character, hugging the opera house, looks nothing like Chaney's interpretation (due to contractual stipulations).

Problem with the Phantom 24 sheet and the Mad Love 6 sheet is that I don't think they exist beyond pressbook images

Upcoming, in the Heritage July Sig Auction.. and a stone litho for THE BLACK PIRATE (UA-1926) so full of color as any I have seen. And fitting, too, for this Fairbanks film, that was shot completely in the early 2 strip Technicolor process.

I love the look of 2 strip colour.
