Date Sold 9/18/2011Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. 2 Undated (probably 2004) Re-Release Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Japanese "B2" Movie Posters (measures 20" x 28 1/2") (Learn More) Sweet Sweetback's Baadasssss Song, the 1971 Melvin Van Peebles black African American blaxploitation crime thriller ("You Bled My Momma - You Bled My Poppa - But You Wont Bleed Me"; "Rated X by an all-white jury"; considered to be the first 'blaxploitation' movie as it preceded 'Shaft' by a few months!) starring Melvin Van Peebles (in the title role as Sweetback), Simon Chuckster, Hubert Scales, John Dullaghan, and West Gale. Note that most reference sites refer to this movie's title as being "Sweet Sweetback's Baadasssss Song", but the first release U.S. posters we have seen all refer to it simply as "Sweet Sweetback". It WAS released in some non-U.S. countries under the longer title. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this set of two posters is from an undated (probably 2004) Japanese re-release of Melvin Van Peeples' "Sweet Sweetback's Baadasssss Song" and Mario Van Peeples' documentary about his father's movie titled "Baadasssss" (also known as "How to Get the Man's Foot Outta Your Ass"!). We think these two movies were shown together in a festival setting due to the similarity in design of the two posters. If anyone knows more about this Japanese release of these two movies, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Condition: very good to fine. Learn More about condition grades
