I just saw this old thread… Sorry for not replying earlier. The poster linked above is from 1958 I believe when the design was reissued (after the Soviets relaxed their grip of course. Notice the lack of the RKO logo in the lower left...

If you follow Polish posters you'll notice a lot of the early abstract designs from that 1945–1948 post-war period were reissued in the mid to late 50s --  A few that come to mind are citizen Kane, black narcissist, wages of fear, etc. The 1950s release posters are still quite valuable but they are nowhere near as rare as the original 1940s printings.

Harry, do yo have a image of the original Kane one so I can check which version I have (ie the one you mention with the RKO logo in it?

Citizen Kane Polish '48 1st release B1 vs. late 50s re-release A1

Notice missing RKO logo in the lower left.  I also modified the display size of the pics to illustrate the approximate size difference (B1 vs. A1).  The yellow on the first release certainly seems less saturated (and reverse for the reds), but I wouldn't judge color differences based on these pics -- the '48 pic was provided to me and the 50s pic is from HA  8)

Great side by side comparison, Matt... (colorization issues excluded).  ;)

Love the Polish design style...

Picked up my first here recently, Hitchcock's 'Family Plot.' Searching for the 'Critters' sheet next.

Nice adds there, poster art.

The last one looks a bit older than the others. What year is that one from?

A few nice pieces here.  Really like L'Enfant Sauvage, since I collect Truffaut.  And the Jarmusch is nice too.

Yeah the last one is COSSACKS OF THE KUBAN (released in Poland 1953), great art of cast by Russian artist A. Shamash.

Original title "Kubanskie Kazaki" (released in the U.S. as "Cossacks of the Kuban" in 1950) - I think.  Ivan Pyryev Russian musical comedy.

Neat Polish posters there, P.A.

The artwork on the West Side Story (design and colors) almost reminds me of a story that could be more tribal, based on the way the figures are drawn and the red-yellow-blue hexagon shapes between each dancer.

Good stuff!

I agree entirely, You wouldn't actually know it was WSS at all if the titles weren't there. I wonder how the designers came up with the concept of this one? Still, I do like it a lot.

^ wrong beast, bulldog not alligator  ;)
Jeffs great pic of The Seven Year Itch being filmed reminded me i'd forgotten this, Monkey Business (1952)



it's smaller than the others, A3 size, 1960s, and the Poles decided to use 7YI MM instead.
they did choose a good pic though  ;D
