An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded International One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) the international theatrical release of Then Came Bronson, the 1970 William A. Graham hippie-traveling-on-motorcycle-across-America-to-find-himself-and-find-a-new-girl-to-fall-in-love-with-each-week romantic melodrama (the 1969 pilot for the TV series of the same name) starring Michael Parks (in the title role as Jim Bronson), Bonnie Bedelia, Akim Tamiroff, Gary Merrill, Bert Freed, Sheree North, and Martin Sheen 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 is an extremely rare poster. We have never auctioned one in all our years of auctioning! Note that this is an "international" style poster or lobby card (meaning it was printed in the U.S. for use in non-U.S. countries). Somewhere in the early 1960s, MGM apparently made a huge "trade" deal with European movie distributors. From the early 1960s to the late 1960s, MGM released 100 or more non-U.S. movies in the U.S. under the MGM logo (some dating back to the 1950s), and in return, they apparently gave 100 or more MGM movies (from the 1950s and early 1960s) to those European distributors to release in Europe. All of the posters from both sets of releases have a very similar type of somewhat garish, very colorful artwork, and some have an MGM logo that is different from than on other MGM movies of the same time period, which makes it likely that those (with different logos) are from re-releases. None of these posters (except for the very first few of them) have any dates on them. Over the years, I have seen many of these posters (from both types) sold as first release, but, as stated above, some of these are mid to late 1960s re-releases, and the ones from U.S. movies are "international" posters (or lobby cards) that were used in non-U.S. countries. If anyone knows more about these MGM releases, please e-mail us. Condition: good. The poster has crossfold separation and a tear at lower left and those defects are repaired with tape from the back. It has red marker writing on the back that slightly bleeds through to the front at left and creases, scuffs and some rippling. Please see our super-sized image to get a good sense of the condition of this item prior to placing a bid and please do not bid unless you can accept the defects described above, or you are willing to pay to have them properly restored.
