Zero Mostel, Gene Wilder (starring)

New York: AFT International, 1974. Vintage US one sheet poster for the 1974 US film.

Based on the 1959 play by Eugene Ionesco. A reimagining of Ionesco's darkly comical indictment of human gullibility and herd mentality—a response to rising fascism in pre-WWII Europe—wherein citizens of a small town inexplicably begin turning into rhinoceroses.

Set in 1970s America.

27 x 41 inches, folded. Very Good, moderately foxed overall, with wear to the top and bottom edges.
