Note that this movie had an odd release history, opening in Austin, Texas in January 1956, and then in New York City in May 1956. It was released by both Sonney Amusement and Joseph Brenner, and it had two release names, which may have been because it had two different distributors. Movie paper with the title "The Flesh Merchant" is far more rare than that with the title " The Wild and Wicked". We have auctioned a single pressbook with that title, but we have never auctioned a one-sheet (although we found an image of of one online). If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good to fine. The poster was never folded in the usual way, but there are a few partial folds within the poster. Otherwise, the poster was in nice condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well! Learn More about condition grades
