An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Movie Paper Banner (measures 24" x 80" [61 x 203 cm]) (Learn More) Bullitt, the classic 1968 Peter Yates San Francisco California crime car chase action thriller ("The word 'cop' isn't written all over him - something more puzzling is."; "There are bad cops and there are good cops - and then there's Bullitt."; "Bullitt comes to this theatre soon. That ought to shake up the place pretty good. Not many freaky cops like Bullitt around. You look at the Italian shoes and the turtleneck and you have to wonder. You listen to the official beefs about 'personal misconduct,' 'disruptive influence,' you figure he's got to be up for trade. But when some rare Chicago blood starts spilling in San Francisco, they give Bullitt the mop. They weren't exactly doing him a favor. But they've done a great big one for you."; "Detective Lt. Frank Bullitt - some other kind of cop. Pity the guy he works for."; "Based on the novel 'Mute Witness' by Robert L. Pike"; about a detective who drives a 1968 Ford Mustang GT fastback while pursuing professional hitmen who murdered the wrong guy and let's not forget the really cool chase scenes!) starring Steve McQueen (in the title role "as Bullitt"), Robert Vaughn, Jacqueline Bisset, Don Gordon, Robert Duvall, Simon Oakland, and Norman Fell NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned one example of this banner, and that was 13 years ago, when it sold for $755! Also note that this poster is very long, but because it is not very wide, it can be sent in a regular size tube. However, it can NOT be combined with other rolled posters, and must be either sent by itself (or combined with other items that are exactly like this). Please bear this in mind before bidding on this poster. Condition: good to very good. The poster has a series of thin water stains across the top edge of the top blank border and a 1 1/2" tear in the top blank border above the "S" of "STEVE". It has tiny water stains in the white border at far left next to McQueen's figure. It has a tiny water stain in the bottom of the quote mark to the right of the final "T" of "BULLITT", with a thin drip stain in the red background below that. Otherwise, it has a very few faint scuffs in the image and has survived in better condition than the majority of paper banners from this period. Please look closely at our super-sized image before bidding on this extremely rare banner. Obviously, one could have restoration performed to the above minor defects, or simply display this completely unrestored poster as it is, but that will be the choice of its new owner.
