It's a prize"; "This movie is about one hell of a man who lived when Dillinger was slamming banks, and Roosevelt was awakening the nation. He's a hard-time fast-tracker who's been where it's mean. A grizzly with a sense of humor, an adventurer with holes in his pockets. A wandering rebel, living off the land by his wits and his fists. He goes it alone, he does what he wants - for the beautiful pure sweet hell of it. Who's going to stop him - you? Now he's taking on his biggest run. A challenge no one ever survived. That's why he has to do it!"; "Only one man can be..."; "Written by Christopher Knopf") starring Lee Marvin, Ernest Borgnine, Keith Carradine, Charles Tyner, Malcolm Atterbury, Harry Caesar, Simon Oakland, and Maurice 'Steamtrain' Graham (real life hobo who likely had a cameo role in this movie!) NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Paul Calle Important Added Info: Note that this movie was first issued as "Emperor of the North Pole". But within days of the movie's release, it hit the studio executives that it sounded like it could be a Christmas movie, so they quickly changed the posters to "Emperor of the North". This is the poster from the release as "Emperor of the North Pole", and it is far more rare than the other style! Note also that this poster was stamped "FOR" which means it was printed for use outside the United States (there would also have been posters stamped "DOM" for use within the United States). Often, the "FOR" posters would have a different (sometimes racier) image than that for the one used in the United States. Condition: good to very good. Learn More about condition grades
