That ought to shake up the place pretty good. Not many freaky cops like Bullitt around. You look at the Italian shoes and the turtleneck and you have to wonder. You listen to the official beefs about 'personal misconduct,' 'disruptive influence,' you figure he's got to be up for trade. But when some rare Chicago blood starts spilling in San Francisco, they give Bullitt the mop. They weren't exactly doing him a favor. But they've done a great big one for you."; "Detective Lt. Frank Bullitt - some other kind of cop. Pity the guy he works for."; "Based on the novel 'Mute Witness' by Robert L. Pike"; about a detective who drives a 1968 Ford Mustang GT fastback while pursuing professional hitmen who murdered the wrong guy and let's not forget the really cool chase scenes!) starring Steve McQueen (in the title role "as Bullitt"), Robert Vaughn, Jacqueline Bisset, Don Gordon, Robert Duvall, Simon Oakland, and Norman Fell 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 poster was printed in both a high-gloss version and in a "flat" version. This flat version is more difficult to find than the high-gloss version. Also note that this poster has text in the top right that indicates it is an advance (it says "Bullitt comes to this theatre soon"). But it seems that most theaters were sent this "advance" poster (and exhibited it) even after the movie was playing, so we are not bothering to label it as an advance (but note that there is a "non-advance" style as well).

The poster had an irregular tear in the orange area just below the center of the image that included two vertical tears and a horizontal tear joining them, all in the solid orange area. Otherwise, it had fine surface paper loss on parts of some foldlines (typical of high-gloss posters of this period). It also had a few small tears in the borders. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but you can see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects.
