An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Style C Insert Movie Poster (measures 14" x 36") (Learn More) Walking Tall, the classic 1973 Phil Karlson sheriff-in-a-corrupt-small-town-gets-a-big-stick-and-fights-back melodrama ("The measure of a man is how tall he walks."; "Buford Pusser the man who became a legend in our time"; "Now more than ever you must see it!"; "He was going to give them law and order or die trying."; "A real man who became a living legend"; "SIN CITY U.S.A. and the cop who smashed it wide open!"; "The Vice dens and honky-tonks"; "The crooked gambling joints"; "The crime bosses' hitmen"; "The gangland murders"; "The only way an honest lawman walks!"; "Audiences are standing up and applauding..."; loosely based on the real story of Sheriff Buford Pusser; this movie was a real crowd pleaser!) starring Joe Don Baker (as Buford Pusser), Elizabeth Hartman, Rosemary Murphy, Leif Garrett, Gene Evans, and Brenda Benet NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this movie was an immediate major hit, and Cinerama Releasing (the U.S. distributor of the movie) immediately printed a special "style C" insert (and also a half-sheet and one-sheet with a similar image) that stated "Audiences are standing up and applauding... Walking Tall". Technically, these posters are not "first release" posters, but it is hard to call them re-releases, since they were issued during the movie's first release! Also note that this poster has never been machine folded! Most insert posters were folded twice horizontally right off of the printing press. It is very difficult to find an unfolded example of most inserts, especially from before 1970! Condition: very good to fine. There is a studio-issued Photoplay Magazine snipe glued in the top right background area. Learn More about condition grades
