    Here is an original Belgian movie poster from the late 1940's re-release of the big budget RKO production of
    The Last Days Of Pompeii
    . Very loosely based on the Edwin Bulwer-Lytton novel, this movie starring Preston Foster and Basil Rathbone was part historical / biblical epic and part disaster film. This poster is from the 1st rerelease of the film in Belgium in 1949. It features striking artwork of Mount Vesuvius erupting and wreaking havoc on the citizens of Pompeii. This beautiful artwork is unique to this Belgian re-release poster and it doesn't come up for sale or auction very often.
