Pretty Poison, the classic 1968 Noel Black romantic black comedy crime murder thriller ("What brought a nice kid like Sue Ann to a shocking moment like this?"; "A shook-up story of the up-tight generation."; "Did you ever see two kids like Dennis and Sue Ann? We think not..."; "We met on Monday. Fell in love on Tuesday. Wednesday I was unfaithful. Thursday we killed a guy together. How's that for a crazy week!"; "...Wait till you see what they do to his aunt - to the night watchman - to her mother."; "She's such a sweet girl. He's such a nice boy. They'll scare the hell out of you."; about a mentally disturbed young man who tells a pretty girl that he's a secret agent, and she believes him... But she turns out to be crazier than he is!; "Based on the novel by Stephen Geller"; "Screenplay by Lorenzo Semple, Jr.") starring Anthony Perkins, Tuesday Weld, Beverly Garland, John Randolph, and Dick O'Neill

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that this teaser one-sheet has a really wild surreal artwork image that depicts Tuesday Weld murdering a dazed night watchman by drowning him. It is very interesting that they would choose this image for the teaser, because the regular release style A one-sheet has an especially bland image, and while the style B is slightly better, both are photographic and not very colorful. This is certainly THE U.S. poster to get from this cult classic!

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. The poster had creases, tiny tears, and tiny bits of paper loss in the top quarter of the vertical fold. It had a 3" tear and small paper loss to the right of the top of the vertical fold, but solely in the blank white area. Someone traced within the letters of the word "Poison" in light marker. The poster had tiny paper loss at the other two crossfolds and minor wear on the other foldlines and in the borders. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. If I owned this cool poster, I would surely have a restorer touch up the top of the vertical foldline and the letters of the word "Poison" (the rest of the poster does not need touch up).
