Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Half-Sheet Movie Poster (measures 22" x 28") (Learn More) The Bingo Long Traveling All-Stars and Motor Kings, the 1976 John Badham black African American baseball sports comedy ("In 1939, to laugh, you listened to radio, to cry you went to the movies, for excitement, you went to the ballgame. But if you wanted all three, there was only Bingo Long."; "Who would have thought it could be so much fun."; "Based on the novel by William Brashler"; about players in the "Negro Leagues" of the 1930s) starring Billy Dee Williams (in the title role as Bingo Long), James Earl Jones, Richard Pryor, Rico Dawson, and Sam 'Birmingham' Brison 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 half-sheet came directly from an individual who worked at Universal Pictures in the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s. He received many samples of posters which he carefully saved. Not only are they in wonderful condition (practically brand new unless otherwise noted), but his collection includes some posters that are extremely rare, and in fact, he may have some posters which were only made as samples and never were generally distributed! Condition: fine. There is a slight "waviness" to the poster from the way it was stored. This would certainly flatten out if it were laid flat for any length of time, and then the poster would be virtually perfect!. Note that this poster has never been folded! Most half-sheet posters were folded twice (once horizontally and once vertically) right off of the printing press. It is very difficult to find an unfolded copy of most half-sheets, especially from before 1970! Learn More about condition grades
