Artist: Saul Bass Important Added Info: Note that the Saul Bass art on this one-sheet was WAY ahead of its time with a really avant garde image of a man at the top of the poster whose head is "cut off". We wonder what 1956 viewers of this poster thought of it (probably many may have thought it was "missing" a piece! Also note that this film was released in January of 1957 but some U.S. items have a NSS of "56/466", while others have "57/27". Items with either NSS are from the first release of this movie. We have seen similar situations occur with other titles, especially when they were released right at the end or beginning of a year (as this film was). Condition: good to very good. The poster has a small amount of water staining at lower left. It is much more noticeable on back than on the front, and though after a very simple linenbacking it would look great, the poster displays quite well as is. Learn More about condition grades
