Description
Jailhouse Rock (MGM, 1957). Six Sheet (81" X 81"). Long considered one of Elvis Presley's best films, this top '50s rock and roll musical shown presents Presley as a young rebel imprisoned for accidentally killing a man. There are two reasons why posters of this size on the title have become extremely difficult to obtain. First, six sheets were commonly pasted to outdoor walls; one week later the next showing's poster was pasted over the top of it. Secondly, this film was incredibly popular and the paper was used extensively until it was so tattered it was thrown away. So, it is very satisfying to offer such a nice copy. The top edge has the slightest scuff on the right side, there is minor wear on the center fold, and there are several small crossfold separations. The borders are primarily pristine, and the colors remain fresh and bright. Very Fine.Please see full-color, enlargeable images above for more details.
