An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Twenty-Four-Sheet Movie Poster (24sh; measures approximately 9' x 20') (Learn More) The Enforcer, the classic 1976 James Fargo San Francisco California terrorist crime action thriller sequel ("Clint Eastwood is Dirty Harry"; "Based on characters created by Harry Julian Fink & R.M. Fink"; "Story by Gail Morgan Hickman & S.W. Schurr"; "Screenplay by Stirling Silliphant and Dean Riesner") starring Clint Eastwood (as Dirty Harry), Harry Guardino, Bradford Dillman, Tyne Daly, John Mitchum, and DeVeren Bookwalter NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Bill Gold Important Added Info: We are pretty certain that not only has THIS poster never come up for auction before, but we don't think that ANY 24-sheets from any of the "Dirty Harry" series of movies have come up for auction! So this is likely your only chance to get a billboard poster from any of these movies, and THIS poster has the wonderful design by movie poster designer legend Bill Gold, likely the most striking image of any of the billboards created! Also note that this 24-sheet is one of a remarkable group of six 24-sheets (and one English 30-sheet) that we are offering in seven separate auctions. These posters (often referred to as "billboard posters") were always pasted to walls or billboards when they were used, so the only ones that survive are the few that didn't get used at the time. But VERY, VERY few 24-sheets survive from any movie from before 1990, because no one thought to save them, and the unused ones were almost always trashed. To give you a sense of how very rare they are, we have held over 1.2 million auctions, and of those, around 75 of them were for 24-sheets, and only a dozen of them were from before 1960! So not only are the seven billboard movie posters offered here extremely rare (and some may be the only remaining example in existence), but they are also some of the very small number of billboard movie posters still in existence period! Note that this twenty-four sheet was printed in 12 sections designed to overlap. This 24-sheet poster was folded in a way that makes it resemble a folded six-sheet (only much larger, of course, as there are many more sections). But while the length and width of the folded 24-sheet is similar to that of a folded six-sheet or three-sheet, it is somewhat larger and also has greater depth. This means that this 24-sheet needs to be sent in an oversized flat package, which will measure roughly 16" x 24" x 3", and it will cost more to send than a regular sized package. Condition: very good to fine. The poster was clearly never used. The sections of the poster have many creases from the folds, but it likely has survived in as good condition as one would hope for a poster of this size from this time!
