No, this is Reverend Pious Blue's assistant bank robber"; "Is this Texas ranger? No this is a rival bank robber"; "Is this a Chinese laundry man? No this is Texas Ranger Ben Quick's inscrutable deputy bank robber"; "Is this a bad bandito? Yes this is a South-of-the-Border bank robber from a third gang which is trying to outwit the second gang and outrace the first gang for the loot in the Receiver's Bank of Friendly"; "The James Boys... The Daltons... The Younger Brothers... The most notorious outlaws stashed their cash there. It was the best defended bank in the West."; "Is this Texas Ranger Ben Quick? No, this is a rival bank robber."; "The Great Bunglers"; "With apologies to Willie Sutton, Jesse James and Bonnie and Clyde..."; "Meanwhile, back at the bank... the crazy banditos were shooting at the brick wall, the Chinese laundrymen - guardians of Law and Order - were taking turns digging tunnels and washing shirts, while Sister Lyda was taking care of Texas Ranger Ben Quick and the Reverend Pious Blue had his eyes cast to the heavens... for a quick getaway.") starring Zero Mostel, Kim Novak, Clint Walker, Claude Akins, Akim Tamiroff, Larry Storch, John Anderson, Sam Jaffe, Mako, and Bob Steele

Artist: Robert McGinnis
Important Added Info: Note that this poster was sent to a theater with a Spanish language title change snipe, but the theater did not use it (however, the snipe will be sent to the new owner of the poster). Also note that this poster was stamped "FOREIGN" which means it was printed for use outside the United States (there would also have been posters stamped "DOMESTIC" for use within the United States). Often, the "FOREIGN" posters would have a different (sometimes racier) image than that for the one used in the United States. Also note that this six-sheet was printed in 2 sections designed to overlap.

Condition: very good. There is some darkening on the back of the part of the poster that was on the outside when it was fully folded, but it has little effect on the front, and otherwise, the poster is in nice condition.
