full.wusa-6sh-21096

Original Paramount Pictures Six Sheet Poster (81×81) for the Stuart Rosenberg political drama, WUSA (1970)—starring Paul Newman, Joanne Woodward, and Anthony Perkins. Adapted from the Robert Stone novel, “Hall of Mirrors,” the story involves a cynical drifter (Newman) who gets a job as an announcer for a right-wing radio station in New Orleans. At first he is content to parrot the station’s reactionary editorial stance, but then he begins to be challenged by his lady friend (Woodward) and a troubled idealist (Perkins), who have become aware of WUSA’s secret and sinister political agenda. With excellent performances by everyone in the cast, this political melodrama was clearly related to the passions and disappointments of the 1968 general election. This original one sheet poster is folded and in very fine condition.

THE MANCHURIAN CANDIDATE (1962) 4996

full.themanchuriancandidate-3sh-4996

Original United Artists Three Sheet Poster (41×81) for the John Frankenheimer mystery thriller, THE MANCHURIAN CANDIDATE (1962)—starring Frank Sinatra, Laurence Harvey, Janet Leigh, and Angela Lansbury. Based on a novel by Richard Condon, this excellent thriller tells the story of a former Korean War POW (Harvey) who is brainwashed by the Chinese communists into becoming a political assassin. An eerie coincidence, the film dealing with the assassination of an American presidential candidate was released in the U.S. in the year before the real-life assassination of President John F. Kennedy. The topic of the film was so politically sensitive that it was prohibited in the former “Iron Curtain” countries until after the fall of the Soviet Union. Angela Lansbury, who absolutely captivates and steals every scene she is in, was nominated for Best Supporting Actress. This original three sheet poster is folded and in very fine condition. It appears to have never been used and is unassembled.
