MGM Original U.S. Half Sheet Poster Style A (22x28) Fine Plus Condition
Original MGM U.S. half sheet poster, style A, for the Richard Thorpe romantic musical, JAILHOUSE ROCK (1957) starring Elvis Presley and Judy Tyler. Elvis made over thirty movies, and most of them are not memorable. But JAILHOUSE ROCK is one of his best performances. The part of the film where Elvis performs the title song is a milestone in rock music history. Indeed, the title song sold 2 million records within the first two weeks of its release and served to promote the film, which grossed several millions. This poster was used in a theater, and was sent to the exhibitor folded. It has been stored flat for a number of years, but the fold lines are clearly evident. This poster has vivid color and no missing paper. Display the poster as is or consider paperbacking the poster for a more refined presentation. MovieArt Austin guarantees this poster to be an authentic U.S. style A half sheet poster for this film. MovieArt Austin will sell NO reproductions.
