An Undated (probably 1980s) Re-Release Theatrical Folded Italian One-Panel (known in Italy as a "2 Fogli") Movie Poster (1p; measures 39" x 55" [99 x 140 cm]) (Learn More) Tang Shan Da Xiong (released in Hong Kong as "Tang Shan Da Xiong/The Big Boss", released in the U.S. in 1973 as "Fists of Fury"), the classic 1971 Lo Wei Hong Kong kung fu martial arts thriller ("Karate/Kung-Fu!"; "The new screen excitement that gives you the biggest kick of your life!"; "Karate/Kung-Fu! The oriental sensation - now gives America the action its been waiting for!"; "No evil on earth could survive the fury that was Bruce Lee!") starring Bruce Lee ("every limb of his body is a lethal weapon"), Maria Yi, Han Ying Chieh, Tony Liu, and Malalene. Note that this movie (and "The Chinese Connection") received very limited release in the United States until after the success of "Enter the Dragon", at which point both movies received wide U.S. releases. Also, note that Australia distributed this movie as "The Chinese Connection", and released Lee's next movie (Jing Wu Men) as "Fist of Fury", which further complicates things! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Averardo Ciriello Important Added Info: Note that this movie was very popular in Italy upon release! The first release posters are incredibly rare and have a red Titanus logo, instead of the black one that is on the re-releases (printed by Novograph). The second release one-panel posters (likely from 1976) are printed by Grafitalia, and the third release posters (likely from 1979 to 1981) are printed by Rotopress. There is a 1980s re-release from Sericolor, and there are likely even more releases! If anyone knows more about any of this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Note that this Italian poster was NOT folded in half "an extra time", as some Italian posters are. This means it has fewer folds than those posters which are folded an extra time, but it also means that it must be sent in a larger flat package that measures approximately 15" x 23". We are also separately auctioning Italian posters that WERE folded an extra time, and which can be sent in a standard flat package. We list the two types separately by how they are folded, so that you can more easily know which kind of shipping each type requires. Condition: good. Learn More about condition grades
