An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Style A Half-Sheet Movie Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm]) (Learn More) The Fat Man, the 1951 William Castle detective mystery circus crime thriller ("Radio's Great Detective... NOW the Screen's Super Sleuth!"; "Radio's Original Fat Man") starring J. Scott Smart (in the title role as Detective Brad Runyon, known as "The Fat Man"), Julie London, Rock Hudson (very young in this role, and third billed!), Clinton Sundberg, and Emmett Kelly (billed as "introducing The World Famous Clown Emmett Kelly"). Note that the characters in this movie came from a story by Dashiell Hammett, who had of course much earlier created the characters in "The Thin Man" series, which had proved extraordinarily popular in the movies. Unfortunately, "The Fat Man" did not have the same appeal as "The Thin Man"! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this poster has never been folded! Some pre-1970 half-sheet posters were folded twice horizontally at the poster exchange, while some were not. It can be difficult to find an unfolded example of many pre-1970 half-sheet posters (note that most post-1970 half-sheets were NOT folded, so they are pretty much only found unfolded, and therefore this does not apply to those half-sheets). Condition: very good. There is a 1 1/4" tear in the right of the top edge of the poster. The poster is otherwise in pretty nice condition. Learn More about condition grades
