1961 The Hustler Original Vintage Poster

About the Item

Robert Rossen's high-stakes classic "The Hustler" was released in 1961 to major commercial and critical success. Nominated for 9 Academy Awards, the film follows Paul Newman in one of his most iconic roles as "Fast" Eddie, a pool hustler determined to make it to the top. Regarded as one of the greatest films of modern times, it spawned a sequel 25 years later - "The Colour of Money" - for which Newman would finally win his Best Actor Oscar reprising his role. This stunning vibrant pop-art design is a very rare case of a re-release poster being more sought after and valuable than the original. "The Hustler" was re-released in 1964 following the mis-marketing of the original release to enjoy even wider success, and this brilliant and rare poster was produced.

  • 'Breakfast at Tiffany's' Original Vintage US Lobby Card Movie Poster, 1961
    By Robert E. McGinnis
    Located in Devon, GB
    Lobby Cards were designed for display in a cinema lobby to lure the movie-going public. Typically released in sets of 8, each card depicted a different scene from the film. This charming US lobby card for 'Breakfast At Tiffany's,' number 7 of the set, depicts Audrey Hepburn as Holly Golightly and George Peppard as Paul Varjak sipping coffee against a backdrop of Manhattan. Featuring a miniature version of Robert McGinnis' iconic artwork used for the US insert, the lobby cards offer a bit of Tiffany's magic at a more affordable price point than the larger and highly sought after US Campaign posters. Holly Golightly would be Audrey Hepburn’s defining role, establishing her status as one of the greatest screen legends and style icons of all time. It seems unbelievable now that Truman Capote, author of the novella on which the movie was based, had his heart set on Marilyn Monroe for the part. Monroe pulled out of the running when her acting coach advised her not to play a lady of the night...
