Original Columbia Pictures Six Sheet Poster (81×81) for the Richard Quine drama, SYNANON (1965) starring Edmond O’Brien, Chuck Connors, Stella Stevens, and Alex Cord. Synanon House was a rehab center for heroin addicts at a time when there were really few avenues of any kind of help for addicts. Director Richard Quine took his cast to a Synanon House in Santa Monica, California to make this film about addicts and their struggle. The story follows the path of an two addicts who meet and fall in love. Their outcomes, are, predictably, different. The film did little business in 1965. The forward nature of the film, as exemplified by this six sheet poster may be a clue as to why. Nevertheless, the movie is a pointer to more films in the seventies and beyond about the taboo subject of drug addiction. The poster is folded but in near mint, never used condition. Six sheets are large posters and this poster is printed on four separate panels which are joined together for display.
