Cobb (as Barak Ben Canaan), Sal Mineo (nominated for the Best Supporting Actor Academy Award for this film; as Dov Landau), John Derek (as Taha), Hugh Griffith (as Mandria), Gregory Ratoff (as Lakavitch), Felix Aylmer (as Dr. Lieberman), David Opatoshu (as Akiva Ben Canaan), Jill Haworth (in her film debut!; as Karen Johansson), Marius Goring, Alexandra Stewart (as Jordana Ben Canaan), Michael Wager, Martin Benson, Paul Stevens, Betty Walker, Martin Miller, Victor Maddern, George Maharis, John Crawford, and Samuel Segal NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Saul Bass Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. The poster had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds and creases, scuffs, and tiny tears on parts of some foldlines. There were some pinholes, tears, and areas of paper loss around the edges of the poster. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but you can see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects. Note that it appears that the restorer attempted to recreate the NSS information at bottom right (likely it was missing). But they took the information and an NSS number from another poster, and glued it to that area, and the NSS numbers are for a 1965 poster (Dr. Goldfoot and the Bikini Machine)! Of course, another restorer could easily remove that mistaken "restoration"! Learn More about condition grades
