Just pull the trigger!"; "'Just squeeze the trigger', she whispered. 'Then take the money - and me!'"; "This year the great suspense drama is 'Pushover'"; "Hot-blooded blonde... Cold-blooded guy... And Murder!"; "The suspense drama of the year!"; "A story of temptation..."; about a detective trying to find bank robbers, and he finds an old girlfriend of one of the robbers, and she wasn't involved, but she hatches the idea that she could find the robber, and the detective could kill him, and they could keep the money, and he goes along because she is irresistible!) starring Fred MacMurray, Philip Carey (billed as "Phil Carey"), Kim Novak ("The word is out: 'Kim Novak is the find of the year!'"; "Introducing Kim Novak"; "Meet Kim Novak... She's what the boys have been waiting for!"; in her first credited role, after several very minor appearances), Dorothy Malone, and E.G. Marshall.

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this Belgian poster measures 14" x 22" and is linenbacked. Condition: very good. This poster was linenbacked, and one of the following is true: either the poster had very minor defects, and was well backed, OR it had more significant defects, but they were well restored, OR it had some minor defects that were not completely restored, and are somewhat noticeable. You can tell which of the above is the case for this particular poster by reading our "pre-restoration" description and also by looking at our "super-sized" image of the actual poster (we are the only major auction company we know of that gives accurate detailed pre-restoration information about linenbacked posters to our bidders, but we wish everyone did!). The poster has an odd defect. Someone painted green paint in the shape of a dress on Novak's image at bottom right (it is almost surely a question of her dress being too sexy and revealing, so a censor created a less revealing "dress"). Otherwise, the poster had wear on the foldlines and minor border defects. Please do not bid on this poster unless you can accept the above described defect! Learn More about condition grades
