Additional Details: Very large advertisement poster created by Mobil for the promotion of the Masterpiece Theatre series "Miss Morison's Ghosts". It was a 1981 British supernatural television drama that aired on ITV, featuring Hannah Gordon and Wendy Hiller in leading roles. The film, produced and written by Ian Curteis and directed by John Bruce, is based on the real-life Moberly–Jourdain incident. In this 1901 event, two Oxford academics, Charlotte Anne Moberly and Eleanor Jourdain, claimed to have experienced a time slip to the 18th-century court of Louis XVI during a visit to Versailles. The narrative follows the two women as they recount their extraordinary experience, leading to skepticism and challenges to their professional reputations. The film delves into themes of time travel, historical memory, and the tension between scientific rationality and supernatural phenomena.
