Auction History Result #2339 KING CREOLE linen 1sh '58 Elvis Presley Date Sold 8/19/2003Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (measures 27" x 41") (Learn More) King Creole, the 1958 Michael Curtiz New York City Coney Island tough-kid-leaves-the-slums-but-can't-escape-his-past rock 'n' roll (rock and roll) musical (based on the novel 'A Stone for Danny Fisher' by Harold Robbins) starring Elvis Presley (as Danny Fisher), Carolyn Jones, Walter Matthau, Dolores Hart, Dean Jagger, Vic Morrow, Liliane Montevecchi, and Paul Stewart. Note that this was the fourth of four movies that Elvis made before he went into the Army in 1958. He made no movies in 1959, and the public so wanted to see one that Paramount gave this movie and Loving You a full scale double-bill re-release just one and two years after they were made, with new posters for each, and the tagline "Elvis Presley back on the screen for the first time in a year"! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: very good. Prior to linenbacking, the poster was in very good condition. The poster had small holes at the crossfolds, an extra fold just above the top foldline, pinholes in the corners, and minor border and foldline wear. There were some light smudges throughout the poster (most noticeable in the white background areas and in Jones' hair. There was a diagonal crease in the upper left border running down to Elvis' neck. Linenbacking has minimized the poster's defects, but they are still somewhat noticeable, although I do not think they are all that distracting. Learn More about condition grades
