Our expert's notes

Poster (42.5" x 60") ; Art Director's Club
Very Fine on Linen; Artist Saul Bass
Columbia, c.1960s

This incredibly rare poster was specially printed for a singular event held by the Art Directors Club, Charlotte Chapter, for a retrospective of designer Saul Bass's work in the cinema. This organization was founded in 1920 to award the world's best and most creative artistic designers. It's no wonder then that Saul Bass would be honored by the organization for his outstanding work in poster design, credit designs, and work in television. The image on this poster is one of Bass's most iconic images: the body of a murdered man from Otto Preminger's classic in courtroom mystery. We suggest the poster dates from the mid-late 1960s

With only some minor restoration to the fold lines, this poster is in fantastic condition.

This gripping James Stewart-starring courtroom drama directed by Otto Preminger has been widely praised for its accuracy and realism. In 1989, the American Bar Association rated it as one of the 12 best trial films ever.

Estimate: $3,000 - 6,000
