Breathtakingly beautiful for this RARE 1932 Original Lithographic poster; brilliant colors, in plexiglass constructed frame; not examined out of the frame.
This pre-code epic altered between pandering the flesh-pots of ancient Rome and elevating the piety of the struggling Christian faith. The picture was famous for the scene where Colbert takes a milk bath. Fredrich March plays Marcus Superbus, a Roman Centurion. The film was made during the height of the depression, and DeMille famously cast a tremendous number of extras to provide jobs for out of work Hollywood extras. The movie was released by Paramount on November 30,
1932
and ran a little over two hours. When it was re-released,
post code
censors took the scissors to the racier parts. This
authentic U.S. one sheet for this famous and important film is EXTREMELY RARE.  A similar one sold on Posteritati for the 1944 Re-Release for K.
