Product Overview
The Charlie Chaplin in The Kid 3-sheet is a hand pulled, fine art movie poster lithograph by S2 Art from their Art of the Movies collection. This is a recreation of the 1921 3-sheet. It's pulled through a rare, 1800s, French Marinoni printing press on hand made Rives BFK archival 100% cotton paper.
Charlie Chaplin in the Kid featured Charlie Chaplin and Jackie Coogan. The tagline: for the poster reads: "6, Reels, Of Joy, A First National, Attraction".
In 2011, The Library of Congress selected The Kid for preservation in the United States National Film Registry for being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant."
This is not print or reproduction. It is a remastered, recreated, original work of art.
This 3-sheet was produced at S2 Editions Atelier, New York City, in 1997 under the guidance of the Ré Society Ltd, and S2 Art company. It was created in partnership with the American Film Institute's, 100 American Classic Movie Posters.
This lithograph bears the trademark of the Ré Society, plus the blind stamped emblem of the S2 Editions Atelier. The signature of the chromist, David Copson, is also printed unobtrusively on this lithograph in order to distinguish it from the original Golden Age poster.
The lithograph is sequentially numbered in pencil in the lower left border, by a curator at S2 Editions.
Comes with a certificate of authenticity by S2 Art Group, Ltd. Item is packaged and shipped in a museum quality tube.
