Auction History Result f300 FROM HELL TO TEXAS six-sheet movie poster '58 Don Murray, Diane Varsi Date Sold 6/12/2007Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Six-Sheet Movie Poster (measures 81" x 81") (Learn More) From Hell to Texas (also released as "The Hell Bent Kid" and "Man Hunt"), the 1958 Henry Hathaway cowboy western ("There never was a man like the kid they couldn't kill... From the Cimarron to the Rio Grande..."; "The West's most savage man-chase.. FROM HELL TO TEXAS"; "Every gun in the territory was hired to kill..'The Hell Bent Kid'"; "Based on the book by Charles D. Locke") starring Don Murray, Diane Varsi, Chill Wills, Dennis Hopper, and R.G. Armstrong. Note that Hollywood legend has it that this movie was the one that caused Dennis Hopper (at the time a promising young actor) to be "blackballed" in mainstream Hollywood for many years. The story goes that Hopper clashed with director Hathaway over how he delivered a single line, and that hours of shooting (with innumerable takes) were wasted, and that finally Hopper delivered the line the way Hathaway wanted, but after that, he couldn't get a job in mainstream movies. Oddly enough, he returned to mainstream movies in 1965 in The Sons of Katie Elder, directed by Hathaway (who apparently forgave him over those years), but of course, his career really took off with Easy Rider in 1969!

Note that the theater that used this poster glued the four pieces together before putting them on display (this is typical of many actual theater-used six-sheets). Condition: good. There are many pinholes, creases, tears, and areas of paper loss around the edges of the poster, and some creases, smudges, and tears and stains throughout the poster. This poster has some significant imperfections. We may have written a few words about those imperfections, but we may not have, as you can likely see them by looking at our "super-sized" image of the actual poster. It DOES have clear defects, which are likely to be very noticeable in our "large" or "super-sized" images that you can click on from our small image at right (if the item has significant defects that are difficult to see in our image, then we try to describe those in words elsewhere within the auction). Note that some of these posters have tape repairs on the back, and we note more significant repairs, but we do not note just a few small pieces of tape on the back of a poster. PLEASE DO NOT USE WISHFUL THINKING WHEN LOOKING AT THE CONDITION OF THIS POSTER! It DOES have significant defects, and they may be such that you would not be happy with this item. We know that some collectors could accept this item's defects, and display it as is, and we also know that many collectors would only be happy with this poster if they had it restored, so please do not bid on it unless you feel sure you can accept it as it is, or are willing to pay to have it properly restored. Of course, you should realize that if you do not bid on this poster because of its condition defects, it may be quite some time before you see this poster offered again!
