Date Sold 2/23/2020Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Tri-Folded Japanese Two-Panel "STB" or "Tatekan" Movie Poster (2p; measures 20" x 57" [51 x 145 cm]) (Learn More) Hang 'em High, the classic 1968 Ted Post cowboy revenge western ("The hanging was the best show in town. But they made two mistakes. They hung the wrong man and they didn't finish the job."; "Written by Leonard Freeman & Mel Goldberg") starring Clint Eastwood, Inger Stevens, Ed Begley, Pat Hingle ("as Judge Fenton"), Alan Hale Jr., Dennis Hopper, L.Q. Jones, and Arlene Golonka. Note that this movie was Clint Eastwood's first American movie after his trilogy of Italian spaghetti westerns (and the other movie he made in Italy, "The Witches"). He returned to the U.S. and wanted Sergio Leone to direct this movie, but he had already committed to make "Once Upon a Time in the West". The producers wanted many other famous directors to direct this movie, but Eastwood insisted on Ted Post being hired (Post had directed him in many episodes of TV's "Rawhide"). At one point after filming started, one of the producers clashed with Ted Post, and Eastwood told him to leave the set and not return, or the movie would not continue filming, and the producer did as Eastwood told him! Eastwood would show this kind of loyalty to people like director Ted Post and actors he liked working with, hiring people he had worked with in the past to work with him over and over again throughout his film career.

Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned two examples of this poster, and both were eight years ago! Also note that this Japanese two-panel was printed in 2 sections designed to overlap. Also note that the theater that used this poster glued the pieces together before putting them on display (this is typical of many actual theater-used posters in multiple pieces). Finally, note that this poster was tri-folded only (which means there is no vertical machine fold) but because it would be more expensive to send flat, it will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: very good. The theater that used this poster glued the pieces together before putting them on display (this is typical of many actual theater-used posters in multiple pieces). Each of the two panels was tri-folded, and they have some horizontal creases and other creases scattered throughout. Learn More about condition grades
