An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Italian One-Panel (known in Italy as a "2 Fogli") Movie Poster (1p; measures 39" x 55" [99 x 140 cm]) (Learn More) Taur, il re della Forza Bruta (literally translates to "Taur: The King of Brute Force"), the 1963 Antonio Leoviola Yugoslavian/Italian sword-and-sandal action thriller starring Joe Robinson (in the title role as Taur), Harry Baird, Bella Cortez, Antonio Leonviola, Alberto Cevenini, Isabella Biancini, and Carla Foscari. It appears this movie was never released in the U.S. If anyone knows more about this movie, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Note that Joe Robinson was an English wrestling champion who went to Italy when other strongmen like Steve Reeves went there and made lots of sword-and-sandal movies. He did not have the success that others did, but he made headlines in 1998 when "he fought off a gang of eight muggers single-handed. The 70-year-old former bodybuilder was getting off a bus in Cape Town, South Africa when the gang struck with baseball bats and knives. 6' 2" Joe poleaxed two with flying kicks, karate-chopped another in the chest and broke the arm of a fourth. The rest fled!" NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Rodolfo Gasparri Important Added Info: Note that this is a "country of origin" poster for this partially Italian movie! Also note that it is difficult to accurately date Italian posters, and some unmarked re-release posters can be extremely difficult to distinguish from first releases, so please bear that in mind before you place a bid. We used our best information to date this poster, but we can't always guarantee that the Italian posters we sell are not from an unmarked re-release, but this will only prove to be true in a very tiny number of cases. Note that this poster was folded in half an extra time. If it is purchased by itself (or solely with other posters that were folded an extra time), then it can be sent in one of our standard size mailers. But if it is purchased with posters that were NOT folded an extra time, then it will need to be sent in one of our oversized flat packages. If you solely purchase this poster, we will re-fold it an extra time. Condition: fair. Learn More about condition grades
