Date Sold 7/26/2020Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) the 1974 re-packaging of The Green Hornet (also released as "Kato"), the 1966 William Beaudine & Norman Foster crime costumed superhero fantasy action thriller ("Written by Jerry Thomas"; a full-length feature version of episodes of the TV show, where Bruce Lee's Kato character was prominent) starring Bruce Lee ("Son of the Dragon"; as Kato), Van Williams (in the title role as The Green Hornet), Wende Wagner, Lloyd Gough, and Walter Brooke. 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 there are two versions of this poster: one with "The Green Hornet" in green letters (and "Bruce Lee" in red), and another with "The Green Hornet" and "Bruce Lee" as white letters. We do not know why they are different. If anyone knows more about this movie, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Otherwise, know that the example we offer here is the "white title style". Condition: good to very good. The poster has fine surface paper loss along portions of some foldlines (typical of high-gloss posters of this time period) and there are some light creases scattered in various areas. It has a small v-shaped tear in the art of the car at right, and there is some black marker writing on the back that slightly bleeds through to the front at upper center (to the left of Lee) and at upper right (in his hand). None of the defects are very noticeable or distracting when the poster is displayed and it is otherwise in pretty nice condition (and after linenbacking it would look great!).
