Product Overview
Murders in the Rue Morgue is a hand pulled, fine art movie poster lithograph by S2 Art from their Art of the Movies collection. This is an exact replica of the 1932 theatrical release poster. The one-sheet is pulled through a rare, antique, 1800s French Marinoni Voirin printing press on Rives BFK archival 100% cotton paper.
This is not print or reproduction. It is a remastered, recreated, original work of art.
This one-sheet was produced at S2 Editions Atelier, New York City, in 1999 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.
The Murders in the Rue Morgue poster bears the image Bela Lugosi, the star of the movie.
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 right border, by a curator at S2 Editions.
