Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Half-Sheet Movie Poster (measures 22" x 28") (Learn More)

Love Me Tender, the 1956 Robert D. Webb Civil War romantic rock 'n' roll (rock and roll) musical ("Mr. Rock 'N' Roll in the story he was born to play!"; "...singin' man ...fightin' man ...lovin' man"; "Based on a story by Maurice Geraghty") starring Richard Egan, Debra Paget, Elvis Presley (billed as "introducing Elvis Presley in his first motion picture"; in his first movie!), Robert Middleton, William Campbell, Neville Brand, Mildred Dunnock, Bruce Bennett, and James Drury. Note that producer Hal Wallis intended the 1957 film "Loving You" to be the first Elvis film. However, six months before the start of production for that project, Wallis loaned Elvis to 20th Century Fox and "Love Me Tender" became his first movie.

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube.

Condition: good. two 1/4" "v" shaped tears in Presley's image at upper right; the paper at those tears was "scrunched", but it appears that there is no paper loss at all, and I feel confident a talented restorer could smooth out the "scrunched" paper and repair the tears.

poster has darkened slightly with age; left 1 1/2" folded back at one time; slightly diagonal creases along some of the foldlines from the poster being folded somewhat off-center as well as minor creases, smudges, and scuffs throughout the poster (more so along the foldlines); pairs of staple holes around the edges of the poster
