An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded British Quad Movie Poster (measures approximately 30" x 40") (Learn More) To Trap a Spy, the 1964 feature movie based on the pilot episode for the television (TV) series, "The Man From U.N.C.L.E.", the Don Medford spy espionage crime action adventure comedy spoof ("America's favorite U.N.C.L.E.s have a date with danger!"; "there are a thousand thrilling ways 'To Trap a Spy'!"; adapted from the episodes "The Vulcan Affair" and "The Four Steps Affair" of the TV series "The Man from U.N.C.L.E."; "DANGER: U.N.C.L.E.s at work!"; "Join these two amazing undercover agents in the kind of wild, way-out action that made them famous!"; "Only the Men from U.N.C.L.E. stand between this country and disaster."; "A feature length hit from the TV show!"; "Written by Sam Rolfe"; the two episodes were joined together and re-edited to make a single feature movie) starring Robert Vaughn ("as Mr. [Napoleon] Solo"; "as 'Napoleon Solo'"), David McCallum ("as 'Illya'"; as Illya Kuryakin), Luciana Paluzzi (billed as "Special Guest Star Luciana Paluzzi"), Patricia Crowley, Fritz Weaver, and William Marshall. Note that this TV show was immensely popular in the U.S., and because of that, the first episodes were edited into a feature movie that was released theatrically in 1964. But because the show remained extremely popular, the producers were able to give that same feature movie U.S. distribution in 1966, even though it was a re-edited version of the first TV shows (the show was that popular!). NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: very good to fine. The tagline across the top of the poster is a paper snipe that was glued on over the original tagline ("there are a thousand thrilling ways 'To Trap a Spy'!"). I don't know if all examples of this quad have that snipe at the top. The poster was folded in half an extra time. There is a diagonal crease in the top right corner. There are creases along the foldlines and some creases and a few very tiny tears in the borders of the poster. Learn More about condition grades
