An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Half-Sheet Movie Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm]) (Learn More) Fireball 500, the 1966 William Asher AIP automobile stock car racing sports action comedy ("They Live From Spinout To Crack Up... And they love as fast as they can get it!"; "I handle like a car, honey, the faster the better!"; "They treat their dames - and their cars the same - ROUGH!"; "Women who love their track fast... and their men ROUGH!"; "...The guys who drive faster, love harder and swing higher than any-one else on earth!"; "They'll take a curve... any curve!"; "The guys who drive faster, love harder and swing higher than anyone else on earth!"; "Written by William Asher and Leo Townsend") starring Frankie Avalon, Annette Funicello, Fabian, Chill Wills, Harvey Lembeck, and Julie Parrish 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 never been folded! Some pre-1970 half-sheet posters were folded twice horizontally at the poster exchange, while some were not. It can be difficult to find an unfolded example of many pre-1970 half-sheet posters (note that most post-1970 half-sheets were NOT folded, so they are pretty much only found unfolded, and therefore this does not apply to those half-sheets). Also note that there is an oddity about this poster! It is printed on a glossy paper stock that is glossy on the front and back. Ordinarily, we might think it was a repro, but it clearly has age in both the paper quality and slight darkening around the edges, and we have seen lobby cards that are extremely similar in paper quality to this poster, and those came from a Canadian poster exchange, and they had NSS numbers written on the back. Therefore, we think it is likely that this is an "international" style (even though it has NSS), that was printed on a different paper stock, for unknown reasons (there is also a half-sheet printed on regular paper stock that otherwise looks identical to this). Please do not bid on this poster unless you can accept the different paper stock and the unknown aspect of why that is, and if anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Condition: very good to fine. Learn More about condition grades
