I Cover Big Town Poster

UK Quad cinema poster for the American thriller "I Cover Big Town" (1947).

An interesting poster for three reasons: first it's a scarce 1940's Quad, secondly it's one of four films based on the US radio series "Big Town" (1937-42) (about a newspaper editor exposing corruption) & thirdly the poster has been printed on the back of a 1944 wartime map (of Scotland), indicative of the shortages & austerity that followed the victory over the Nazis in post-war Britain. Interesting how media technology has influenced film production, here the film based on a radio series but Plays & later TV series & now Games are increasingly the genesis for cinematic productions.

Poster folded with pin-holes to corners/rim, foldline wear/creasing & overall in very good condition.
