Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Special Movie Poster (measures 23" x 34") (Learn More) The Candidate, the 1972 Michael Ritchie political politics campaign election melodrama ("Bill McKay has a lot going for him... But nothing compared to what's coming."; "This advertisement has been paid for by Warner Bros. who would love The Candidate to be a winner."; "McKay the better way"; "Written by Jeremy Larner") starring Robert Redford (in the title role), Peter Boyle, Melvyn Douglas ("as John J. McKay"), Karen Carlson, and Morgan Upton 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 was created as a "mock" campaign poster for the character Redford played in the movie, and it was distributed to movie theaters showing the movie. One collector tells us that a New York theater setup an empty storefront across the street to look like a campaign headquarters using these posters and balloons with the same image. Redford even showed up to sign autographs at the fake headquarters. Condition: very good to fine. There are pinholes in the top corners. There is slight paper loss on the back of the top of the poster (in the corners) where the poster had been taped to a wall. There are slight creases around the edges of the poster.. Note that this poster was never folded. Most movie posters from before 1980 were machine folded immediately after printing, but a very few were left unfolded. An unfolded poster from before 1980 is almost always far more difficult to find than a folded poster of the same title, and finding unfolded posters in excellent condition is even more difficult!
