Bruce FYI, these are almost certainly Canadian. A couple of hints, 28 x 42 is standard Canadian size and the GUNILLA mentions "Après ski" (with accent on the e) which is a Quebec comedy flick from 1971. Also, who else would have come up with the the tag line "Cold winter days-- hot winter nights"?
From the description:
Note that this is one of ten very unusual sexploitation one-sheets we are currently auctioning in 10 separate auctions. What makes them unusual? All are from between 1966 and 1972, with most being from right around 1968. All were either directed or produced by one Nick Millard (sometimes under a pseudonym). The 10 posters were found together, and were all unfolded, so it seems quite likely the person who distributed these movies also had his own supply of the one-sheets, no doubt so that he could given them to theaters that booked the movies (these movies were not distributed through the NSS or poster exchanges). We have auctioned exactly one each of six of them one time before and four of them we have never auctioned before, so they are certainly extremely rare! Finally, note that nine of these are black and white, and all ten of them are printed on a somewhat "newer" paper that at first glance looks like it could be from later than the 1960s or 1970s, but we are certain these are from the original dates the movies were released, and that whoever printed these posters used whatever paper they could get, which was different from many one-sheets of this time. This is a rare opportunity to purchase one or many of these extremely rare sexploitation posters!
