    Belgian Original Re-Release Movie Poster -
    A Night At The Opera (1935),
    Marx Brothers, Groucho, Harpo, Chico, Margaret Dumont, Allan Jones, Kitty Carlisle, Sig Ruman, Irving Thalberg, George S. Kaufman, Classic Comedy
    Next up is this wonderful original Belgian movie poster from the first rerelease of the Marx Brothers sixth film
    , A Night At The Opera
    . This was the brother's first outing for MGM after they were enticed away from Paramount by producer Irving Thalberg. Most fans consider this the Marx Brother's masterpiece. No doubt it was a huge box office success for MGM. This poster is from the 1st re-release of the film in Belgium. It was most likely released shortly after the war in Europe (1945 or 1946) since in is printed on the back of war era map of France and Belgium. It is in the smaller sized post-war format to conserve paper. The artwork greatly differs from the 1935 (pre-war) release poster of this film in Belgium but it does contain the Al Hirschfeld inspired caricatures of the three brothers. This poster is in excellent condition for its age with vivid colors and no other visible defects. The paper is very thick and strong. It seldom comes up for sale or auction and would make a great addition to anyone's Marx Bros. or classic comedy poster collection.
