PT 109, the 1963 Leslie H. Martinson historical World War II (WWII) military biography ("Welcome to the South Pacific Lieutenant Kennedy!"; "In response to countless inquiries and requests, this theatre is honored to announce a special engagement of PT 109"; "The story of a band of men left for dead in a flaming sea and their epic of heroism and survival!"; "FOR 3 YEARS Warner Bros. has been engaged in bringing to the screen one of the most exciting adventure stories ever filmed.

The skipper of that boat was a young fellow from Boston, John Fitzgerald Kennedy."; "The true story of young John F. Kennedy and his actual wartime adventure in the South Pacific. A remarkable insight into the qualities inherent in this man that were to later make him a legend in his own time."; "PT 109 was a grimy, battle-scarred veteran of the Guadalcanal campaign. Its skipper was a skinny, handsome and boyish lieutenant from Boston named John Fitzgerald Kennedy."; "Suddenly the bow of a destroyer was on top of them... a huge cleaver bearing down on Lieutenant John Fitzgerald Kennedy and his crew. This was the end of the line for PT 109 and yet in a way, it was only the beginning..."; "The famous cocoanut S.O.S. sent by Lt. John F. Kennedy"; "The beginning - a skipper in search of a ship."; "Kennedy and Ensign Thom dodge Jap bombs."; "Friendly natives hide Kennedy in canoe."; "Kennedy has rendezvous with Australian coast-watcher, who was first to learn men of PT-109 still alive!"; "From the book by Robert J. Donovan"; "Screenplay by Richard L. Breen") starring Cliff Robertson (as John F. Kennedy, "in the year's most talked about role!"), Ty Hardin, James Gregory, Robert Culp, Grant Williams, and Robert 'Bobby' Blake

Artist: Averardo Ciriello
Important Added Info: Note that this Italian two-panel was printed in 2 sections designed to overlap.

Note that this Italian poster WAS folded in half "an extra time", as some Italian posters are. This means it has more folds than those posters which were NOT folded an extra time, but it also means that it can be sent in a standard flat package, while those that were NOT folded an extra time must be sent in a larger flat package that measures approximately 15" x 23". We list the two types separately by how they are folded, so that you can more easily know which kind of shipping each type requires.

Condition: fair to good.
