An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) The Diary of Knockers McCalla, the 1968 Barry Mahon sexploitation movie ("A book so hot its covers should be made of asbestos!") starring Rita Bennett (in the title role as Beverly 'Knockers' McCalla), Alex Mann, and Vincent Van Lynn. Note that director Barry Mahon had a fascinating life that could fill several movies! He was an American pilot for England in World War II and he was shot down and put in a POW camp, and he escaped and was the basis for the Steve McQueen character in the movie "The Great Escape" (Mahon also loved motorcycles). He became Errol Flynn's pilot and later Errol Flynn's manager. He then made many sexploitation "nudie cuties" movies in the 1950s and 1960s, but at the end of his career, he made a drastic shift, and made several children's movies (perhaps he found religion?). You can click on his name for a more complete version of this biography of his life.
