LIFE OF ADOLF HITLER + KNIFE IN THE WATER

Original British 30 inch x 40 inch Double Bill Quad Poster for the 1961 Paul Rotha Documentary THE LIFE OF ADOLF HITLER and the 1962 Roman Polanski Drama KNIFE IN THE WATER (NOZ W WODZIE) starring Leon Niemczyk and Jolanta Umecka.

The poster art is by Peter Strausfeld. Strausfeld was interned in the Isle of Man at the Onchan Internment Camp during the War where he met the Austrian producer George Hoellering. In 1947 Hoellering opened the Academy Cinema on Oxford Street and invited Strausfeld to produce some posters for the cinema which he did in wood and lino-cuts till his death in 1980.

The poster is in very good unfolded (rolled) condition with 2 very small tears at the right edge.
