THE HUSTLER (1961) 1964 RE-RELEASE POSTER, US
41 x 27 in. (104 x 69 cm)
This classic 1960s pool hustling film was directed by Robert Rosse, and stars Paul Newman as 'Fast' Eddie and Jackie Gleason as Minnesota Fats, together with Piper Laurie as Sarah. The film was released in 1961, and the poster used for the initial release had an image of Paul Newman kissing Piper Laurie. This image did not do any justice to the film, and when it was re-released in 1964, the studio produced this new poster, which is perfect for the film, and more collectable than the original release poster.
