An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Insert Movie Poster (measures 14" x 36" [36 x 91 cm]) (Learn More) Hot Rod Gang (released in England as "Fury Unleashed"), the 1958 Lew Landers AIP automobile car racing sports teen musical melodrama ("Crazy Kids... Living to a Wild Rock 'N' Roll Beat!"; produced by Charles Buddy Rogers; about some teens who love playing music and hot rods, and their girlfriends, there are a few bad teens, but no real "gang"!) starring John Ashley, Jody Fair, Gene Vincent (one of the pioneers of rock 'n' roll, best remembered for his song "Be Bop A Lula"), Steve Drexel, and Scott Peters. Note that rock 'n' roll fans will really enjoy this movie for the chance to see Gene Vincent performing (and acting, too!). Sadly, Vincent would die in 1971 at the age of 36, the result of much hard drinking, and four wives! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.

The poster had pretty minor fold wear, with small paper loss in the upper right blank border, and some minor border wear. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well! Note that either the restorer who mounted the poster did not leave any excess linen around the edges of the poster, or possibly the owner of the poster chose to carefully trim off the excess, so that the poster would fit in a frame.
