FLAME IN THE STREETS

Original Belgian 14 inch x 22 inch Poster for the 1961 Roy Baker Drama FLAME IN THE STREETS, written by Ted Willis and John Mills, Sylvia Syms, Brenda De Banzie, Johnny Sekka, Earl Cameron Ann Lynn, Wilfrid Brambell, Meredith Edwards and Glyn Houston.

Racial tensions manifest themselves at home, work and on the streets during Bonfire Night in the burgeoning West Indian community of early 1960s Britain. Trades union leader (Mills) fights for the rights of a black worker but struggles with the news that his own daughter is planning to marry a West Indian, much against his own logic and the prejudice of his wife.

The poster is in very good unfolded (rolled) condition with a tiny hole in the top right corner.
