An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Style B Half-Sheet Movie Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm]) (Learn More)

Blackboard Jungle, the classic 1955 Richard Brooks teacher-vs-bad-teens high school melodrama ("The Blackboard Jungle is the most startling picture in years!"; "The sensational novel... now on the screen!"; "Based On the Novel by Evan Hunter"; "The most startling picture in years!"; "MGM's 'Blackboard Jungle' is the most startling picture of the year!"; "Drama of the teen-age terror!"; ) starring Glenn Ford, Anne Francis, Louis Calhern, Margaret Hayes, Sidney Poitier, Vic Morrow, Emile Meyer, Paul Mazursky, Jamie Farr, and Richard Kiley. Note that Sidney Poitier was 28 years old at the time of filming, but could reasonably pass as a high school student. Just 12 years later it would be Poitier who played the teacher dealing with troubled teens in another classic teaching movie, "To Sir, With Love"!

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.

Important Added Info: Note that most people find the one-sheet poster for this title to be disappointing, as it shows the teacher being attacked, but none of the principals of the movie. Most people agree that this poster has a far superior image!

What IS linenbacking? Learn More

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. The poster was never folded. It had creases, smudges, and a few faint stains around the edges, with a tear in the left blank border. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The restorer backed the poster "in the European style", meaning that they did not do restoration to the defects described above.
