Outspoken and uncompromising, frank and forthright"; "THE MAJOR twenty-five years old by the calendar...three times that old by grace of the war!"; "Mingo The master of everything that came his way...but the cheating wife he left behind"; "Finch in his book...the word "surrender" was missing... the word for him was 'Guts'"; "T.J. The hate filled Corporal with two stripes on his sleeves...and one down his back"; "Mossy He carried more than his own weight..and the burden of a skin that was black"; "Excitement-Movie of the year!"; "Suspense! It grips you completely! Holds you breathless from the bold surprise of the very first scene... to the overwhelming power of the climax!"; "Action! you have never seen a motion picture like it! Brave men on a top-secret mission.. against 15,000 of the enemy... on a tiny, danger-filled island in the south pacific!"; "Adventure! Never did a group of men fight against such odds...the enemy beyond the lines - and the unknown enemy within themselves!"; one of the first movies to maturely explore the subject of African American race relations in then-modern America; "Based on the original play by Arthur Laurents"; "Brought to you by the makers of Champion!" ) starring Douglas Dick, Frank Lovejoy, James Edwards, Steve Brodie, Jeff Corey, Lloyd Bridges, and Cliff Clark

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that this British quad was folded vertically three times and horizontally three times (this being folded one time more than is sometimes done, but it is quite common with British quads, especially older ones). Because of this, this quad can be sent in one of our standard size flat packages (but if it is purchased together with quads that have not been folded in the same way, then it will of course have to be sent in one of our tubes if the other quads are unfolded, or, if it is purchased with other quads that are only folded once horizontally than it can either be sent in an oversized flat package, OR in a tube). But if this quad is purchased by itself (or solely with other quads that have been folded the same way), then the shipping can be lower, because it then fits in a standard package. But please realize that because this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time it is likely that the creases have diminished and therefore re-folding the poster will likely bring some of those creases back, but we leave that decision as to whether or not to re-fold the poster up to the individual buyer of this item. UNLESS THE BUYER TELLS US OTHERWISE, THIS QUAD WILL BE SENT ROLLED IN A TUBE.

Condition: good. There is separation and tiny paper loss on parts of some foldlines.
