Auction History Result 2w084 OUTLAW Japanese 39x62 R1962 art of near-naked Jane Russell, Jack Buetel, Howard Hughes, rare! Date Sold 12/14/2017 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An 1962 Re-Release Theatrical Folded Japanese Movie Poster (measures 38 1/2" x 62" [98 x 157 cm]) (Learn More) The Outlaw: The Story of Billy the Kid, the classic 1946 Howard Hughes biographical cowboy western romantic melodrama ("Trigger-fast action!"; "Sensation too startling to describe!"; "The last time Howard Hughes said he had someone to show you, he gave you two new stars... Jean Harlow and Paul Muni. Now he makes the same promise again and presents Jane Russell and Jack Buetel"; "At Last.. now you can see Howard Hughes' daring production The Outlaw"; produced by Howard Hughes) starring Jack Buetel (as Billy the Kid; "The Outlaw!"), Jane Russell (in her first big screen role!; "introducing Jane Russell"; "Mean.. Moody.. Magnificent"; "The woman who made him notorious!"), Thomas Mitchell (as Pat Garrett), Walter Huston (as Doc Holliday), Mimi Aguglia, and Joe Sawyer. The movie was almost released in 1941, but it was held up for five years due to censorship problems (there are posters and lobby cards from the aborted 1941 release, but they are extremely rare). Howard Hawks began this film as the director, but soon quit the project due to Hughes' constant interference. Hughes also designed the Cantilever bra for this film to better "show off" Russell's chest (who wouldn't wear it!). 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 movie was first released in Japan in 1952 (we have only auctioned a program from that release, and no posters). This poster is from the first Japanese re-release in 1962. While we have auctioned the B2 several times from this 1962 re-release, we have never auctioned this 39x62 size (which is printed on a heavier paper stock) from the 1962 re-release before! Condition: good to very good. There are pinholes and some tears around the edges, with some tiny paper loss caused by rough removal of the pins. Parts of the borders were folded back at one time. There are some tape repairs on the back of some of the tears. Learn More about condition grades
