An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded British Quad Movie Poster (BQ; Quad Crown; measures approximately 30" x 40") (Learn More) To Trap a Spy, the 1964 feature movie based on the pilot episode for the television (TV) series, "The Man From U.N.C.L.E.", the Don Medford spy espionage crime action adventure comedy spoof ("America's favorite U.N.C.L.E.s have a date with danger!"; "there are a thousand thrilling ways 'To Trap a Spy'!"; adapted from the episodes "The Vulcan Affair" and "The Four Steps Affair" of the TV series "The Man from U.N.C.L.E."; "DANGER: U.N.C.L.E.s at work!"; "Join these two amazing undercover agents in the kind of wild, way-out action that made them famous!"; "Only the Men from U.N.C.L.E. stand between this country and disaster."; "A feature length hit from the TV show!"; "Written by Sam Rolfe"; the two episodes were joined together and re-edited to make a single feature movie) starring Robert Vaughn ("as Mr. [Napoleon] Solo"; "as 'Napoleon Solo'"), David McCallum ("as 'Illya'"; as Illya Kuryakin), Luciana Paluzzi (billed as "Special Guest Star Luciana Paluzzi"), Patricia Crowley, Fritz Weaver, and William Marshall. Note that this TV show was immensely popular in the U.S., and because of that, the first episodes were edited into a feature movie that was released theatrically in 1964. But because the show remained extremely popular, the producers were able to give that same feature movie U.S. distribution in 1966, even though it was a re-edited version of the first TV shows (the show was that popular!). 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 there is a large long thin studio-issued paper snipe glued across the top area that reads "The Man from U.N.C.L.E. in a BIG-SCREEN all colour adventure!". Underneath the snipe on the right hand side was "there are a thousand thrilling ways...". Apparently, distributors wanted to clarify that this was a poster for a movie, and not for the TV show! Also note that this British quad was folded vertically three times and horizontally three times (this being folded one time more than is sometimes done, but it is quite common with British quads, especially older ones). Because of this, this quad can be sent in one of our standard size flat packages (but if it is purchased together with quads that have not been folded in the same way, then it will of course have to be sent in one of our tubes if the other quads are unfolded, or, if it is purchased with other quads that are only folded once horizontally than it can either be sent in an oversized flat package, OR in a tube). But if this quad is purchased by itself (or solely with other quads that have been folded the same way), then the shipping can be lower, because it then fits in a standard package. But please realize that because this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time it is likely that the creases have diminished and therefore re-folding the poster will likely bring some of those creases back, but we leave that decision as to whether or not to re-fold the poster up to the individual buyer of this item. UNLESS THE BUYER TELLS US OTHERWISE, THIS QUAD WILL BE SENT ROLLED IN A TUBE. Condition: good to very good. There is a studio-issued snipe across the top of the poster.
