Important Added Info: Note that an expert collector pointed out that this poster is a very rare first print! This green title style was used mainly in drive-in theaters and "B" movie theaters which didn't show big studio movies. Once the film started gaining popularity, a second printing with red titles was created. Note that a poster expert tells us that the first release of this movie was in 16mm, and that this green title style was created for that release. As we noted above, when the movie did so well, it was given a wide release in 35mm, and the red title style was created for that release. Condition: good to very good. There is some tattering and small paper loss in the corners of the poster from rough removal of staples and there is minor separation at the crossfolds. There is a small vertical crease in the black background at lower left in the credits area and there are minor creases and scuffs scattered throughout the poster (mostly along the foldlines and edges). There is a tiny brown stain in the blank border in the middle of the left edge of the poster. Overall, the poster's defects are pretty minor and it displays well from any reasonable viewing distance!
