An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Presskit (measures 9" x 12" [23 x 30 cm]; contains a 4-page promotional brochure and NO stills) (Learn More) Two-Lane Blacktop, the classic 1971 Monte Hellman illegal-street-car-drag-racing thriller ("James Taylor is the driver. Warren Oates is GTO. Laurie Bird is the girl. Dennis Wilson is the mechanic. Two-Lane Blacktop is the picture."; about two men drag racing across the USA in a grey '55 Chevy; based on the story by Will Corry) starring James Taylor, Warren Oates, Laurie Bird (in her first movie role), Harry Dean Stanton, and Dennis Wilson (member of the rock & roll group The Beach Boys, in his sole acting appearance!). Note that Laurie Bird was 17 year old model when she got this major role. She did a great job and it seemed like it would be the start of a substantial career, but alas, that was not to be. Following a couple more minor roles, she quit acting and became a photographer. At the age of 25, she committed suicide in her boyfriend's (Art Garfunkel's) apartment.

This one has solely the covers, which have a cool different image of James Taylor, and it also has a 4-page brochure (which we have only offered once before). But it has NO stills, so bear that in mind before bidding (but of course, one could acquire stills and add them to this presskit). Condition: good to very good. Learn More about condition grades
