Greed 1924

Greed 1924

1924

Erich von Stroheim's Greed ran to over nine hours before it was cut for theatrical release, against his wishes.

He directed it for Metro Goldwyn in 1924, adapting Frank Norris's 1899 novel McTeague. Von Stroheim and June Mathis are credited as writers, and Irving Thalberg was one of the credited producers. The film was shot entirely on location, in San Francisco and Death Valley. This is the US release poster, which carries "Country of Origin, U.S.A." at lower right. The illustrator is unknown.

On the poster

A woman in a strapless gown, drawn in fine black ink with careful cross-hatching, tilts her head back and clutches banknotes and gold coins to her chest. Below her a flat burnt-orange rectangle carries the title in large outlined white lettering. Coins and banknotes scatter across the boundary between the cream upper ground and the orange lower panel, with the figure bridging both. At the foot sit the Metro Goldwyn logotype in elegant cursive and a full credit block in italic type.

Our restoration process

History has wrinkles. We have standards.

A century or two can be unkind to a poster. Folds, tears, stains, fading and the occasional indignity of terrible storage.

Each print begins with historic artwork, carefully restored using the latest digital tools and restoration techniques. Damage is addressed, colours refined and details recovered, while respecting the original composition, lettering and character.

The result? All the charm of the original, without having to live with its unfortunate accidents.

Paper and print details

Good art deserves good paper.

Each poster is printed to order using professional giclée printing techniques and archival pigment inks on 200gsm enhanced matte fine art paper.

The natural white, smooth matte finish reduces glare while bringing out rich colours and crisp detail. The inks are designed for excellent lightfastness, helping the artwork retain its colour for years to come.
