An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Autographed One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) The Boston Strangler, the 1968 Richard Fleischer Massachusetts serial killer murder mystery crime thriller ("Why did 13 women willingly open their doors to the Boston Strangler? This is a true and remarkable motion picture."; "'Come in.' He did. Thirteen times."; "The people and events depicted are based on fact!"; "Don't expect what you expected! This is not the story of just one man or just one city - but of everyone, everywhere. It is not so much concerned with the violent death of eleven women - as with the violence that threatens the lives of all of us. It is not a slick story where the good guys hunt and trap the bad guy. Because here, as in life, no one is completely bad - or completely good. It is not a tale where justice triumphs in the end. Because for Albert de Salvo, the self-confessed Boston Strangler, there can be no such thing as justice. It is not fiction. The people and events are all based on fact. It is not just a movie. It is a landmark in motion picture history. And, above all, it is not what you expect."; based on the real life rapist-killer, Albert DeSalvo, who terrorized Boston in the 1960s, "Based on the book by Gerold Frank") starring Tony Curtis (in the title role as the Boston Strangler, Albert DeSalvo), Henry Fonda, George Kennedy, Mike Kellin, Murray Hamilton, and Sally Kellerman NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this poster has been personally autographed (signed) by Tony Curtis! Note that our consignor was a major collector of autographs on movie posters, and he would go to conventions where stars would appear in person and that is how he acquired this signature. The collector recently passed away, but he had an excellent reputation within the hobby, and we feel certain that the autograph on this poster is authentic. Condition: very good. There is a small black pen mark near the center of the top border (it appears to be from the same pen that Curtis had used to sign the poster; he was likely testing the pen in that area to make sure it worked!).
