This "feature" was made to cash in on Bruce Lee's recent tremendous success with "Enter the Dragon" and his Hong Kong martial arts movies, and multiple one-sheets were made to promote it, and one even includes an image of Bruce Lee holding nunchucks, which comes from Enter the Dragon and NOT from The Green Hornet TV series, which is the height of deceptiveness! 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 when this deceptive movie (see above) was released in Argentina, it was far more deceptively advertised! The movie was called "The Return of the Dragon", one of Lee's best movies, and there was nothing about the image to suggest the viewers were not seeing that movie (although the small credits did reveal that Van Williams was in the movie, telling you it was actually the Green Hornet repackaging). But how many people were deceived by this? Condition: very good. small stains and smudges in the yellow background at top; creases to the left and right of the vertical foldline that were caused when the poster was machine folded; 2" of separation at the bottom of the vertical foldline; tiny holes at the middle and bottom crossfolds Learn More about condition grades
