OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

Original United Artists One Sheet Poster (27×41) for the Michael Winner action thriller, THE MECHANIC (1972) starring Charles Bronson, Jan-Michael Vincent, Keenan Wynn, and Jill Ireland. Bronson plays a merciless, unfeeling, and uncaring assassin who becomes a mentor to the son (Vincent) of one of his victims. With loads of action, intrigue, and suspense—this film is certainly one of Charles Bronson’s best action thrillers. This film is 70s action entertainment at its best, and the collaboration of Director Winner and Bronson produced some of the greatest urban crime thrillers in cinema history. This original one sheet poster is printed on a high grade matte stock and is in fine plus condition, with only some minor smudging on the front.

Original French 47×63 one-panel poster for the Vincente Minnelli directed comedy THE LONG, LONG TRAILER (1954) starring Lucille Ball, Desi Arnaz, Marjorie Main and Keenan Wynn. Lucille Ball had been in films since the mid-thirties when she worked first at RKO and then became Technicolor Tessie at MGM. Her beautiful red hair and Technicolor’s vivid hues were made for each other. But while she was well known, and adept both at light-hearted fare (BEST FOOT FORWARD ) and dramatic roles (THE BIG STREET), she was never really a first tier movie star. Her great fame and amazing career came from that box in the Living Room of the American Public, TV. I LOVE LUCY was already a ratings sensation on CBS television when MGM wanted to present the Arnazes in color on the big screen once again, and oddly in the little-used AnscoColor. The characters in THE LONG, LONG, TRAILER were not exactly the Lucy and Desi of I LOVE LUCY, but they were close enough. It was the fabulous fifties and what newlyweds would not want to strike out and bicker across the beautiful American West pulling a 40 foot trailer with a Mercury V-8? THE LONG, LONG TRAILER gave TV audiences a chance to see the small screen’s biggest stars big once again – but the results were mixed. The film was amusing, but not really as wildly funny as the Ricardos. Nevertheless, Lucy-Desi fans remember this film fondly. MGM would pair Lucy and Desi one more time in FOREVER DARLING (1956) This wonderful French 47×63 is in very fine to near mint condition. Art by Roger Soubie. Colorful and cute.
