Rommel - Desert Fox / White Feather

Lovely stone-litho printing for this 1950's double-bill which features the CinemaScope logo and a great painted picture of James Mason in the role of Erwin Rommel the Desert Fox in action. Rommel was possibly the greatest tactician of all the German generals in the Second World War and was most famous for the pictured campaign stretching into Egypt in which desert warfare was exceptionally hard. When Rommel had to return to Germany for medical treatment the fortunes always changed for the worst for the Germans on the battlefield. A stunning old cinema poster.
