An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Style A Half-Sheet Movie Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm]) (Learn More)

Suddenly!, the 1954 Lewis Allen crime film noir ("Sinatra - ...sears the screen... as a snarling mad-dog killer!"; "Sinatra... as a savage, sensation-hungry killer!"; "Sinatra... Tears loose with a gun in his hand!"; "Sinatra ...out to get the No. 1 man in the nation!"; "Sinatra ...as a kill-hungry hoodlum!"; about an attempted assassination of the President) starring Frank Sinatra ("The Academy Award Winner of 'From Here To Eternity' Scores a New Hit!"; as a psychotic assassin), Sterling Hayden, James Gleason, Nancy Gates, Kim Charney, and Paul Frees. Note that legend says that after President Kennedy was killed in 1963, Frank Sinatra asked that this movie be removed from distribution, but that is purely an urban legend. It is also said that Lee Harvey Oswald watched this movie days before the Kennedy assassination, but that may also be legend.

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that this poster has never been machine folded! Some pre-1970 half-sheet posters were machine folded twice horizontally at the poster exchange, while some were not. It can be difficult to find an unfolded example of many pre-1970 half-sheet posters (note that most post-1970 half-sheets were NOT machine folded, so they are pretty much only found unfolded, and therefore this does not apply to those half-sheets).

Condition: very good. The poster has never been folded and it is in pretty nice condition!
