Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Insert Movie Poster (measures 14" x 36") (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.

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: very good. there are creases along the foldlines; there are creases and pairs of staple holes around the edges of the poster; there are minor smudges around the edges of the poster and in the white image background; there are two pairs of staple hole in Presley's figure; one in his pants just below the guitar and the other 2" below that in his pants; I would think most collectors could accept this poster's basically minor defects and display it just as it is. But of course, a talented restorer could certainly touch up the creases, smudges, and pinholes and make the poster look "perfect" without doing a lot of restoration! Learn More about condition grades
