It won't be the last!"; "He makes no friends - a few enemies - a few dollars - and none of them last!"; "This is the man with no name. Danger fits him like a tight black leather glove!"; "Introducing the man with no name! He's going to trigger a whole new style in adventure. This man with no name is played by Clint Eastwood."; "This short cigar belongs to the man with no name. This long gun belongs to the man with no name. This poncho belongs to the man with no name."; with music by Ennio Morricone; based on the classic Japanese Akira Kurosawa film "Yojimbo") starring Clint Eastwood, Gian Maria Volonte (billed on some items as "Johnny Wels"), Marianne Koch, Wolfgang Lukschy (billed as "W. Lukschy"), Sieghardt Rupp (billed as "S. Rupp"), Joe Edger, Margarita Lozano, and Jose Calvo 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 we have only previously auctioned two unbacked examples of this six-sheet, and they sold for $4,001 (in "good" condition) and $3,000 (in "fair to good" condition), and this example has been linenbacked, which, of course, cost a considerable amount of money. Also note that there is something REALLY remarkable about this six-sheet! It has the images from the rare "teaser one-sheet" side by side with the image from the "regular" one-sheet, with the title and credits stretched across the bottom below the two images! We have never seen another six-sheet from any company or era that used two one-sheet images side by side! Also, there is considerable conflicting information about who created the art for this item. Some say Fred Otnes created the art, others say David Blossom, while others believe Mitchell Hooks, Ted CoConis, etc. If anyone has definitive proof about who created the art, please e-mail us and we will post that information here.

It had smudges and staple holes scattered in the white areas and in the borders. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking.
