Original Columbia Pictures Three Sheet Poster (41×81) for the John Gilling crime thriller, PICKUP ALLEY (1957) starring Victor Mature, Anita Ekberg, Trevor Howard, Bonar Colleano. Originally a British production titled INTERPOL, this film follows a U.S. narcotics agent Charles Sturgis (Mature) as he trails international drug smuggler Frank McNally (Howard) by following his reluctant accomplice, Gina Broger (Ekberg), through the “pickup alleys” of New York, London, Lisbon, Rome, Naples, and Athens. Co-producer Albert Broccoli would go on to produce the first of the blockbuster James Bond series five years later, and this film serves as a preview of the whole secret agent thriller genre. This original three sheet poster is folded and in fine condition.
