Cinema's King of Cool just got a lot cooler, as featured here on this impressive US Six-Sheet format poster for the crime action thriller Bullitt (1968). Considered one of the best Steve McQueen images and a pivotal role for the actor, his performance as tough cop Frank Bullitt cemented his iconic movie star status. The bold use of orange and purples on the image of McQueen dominates the design with a small montage of pictures above the simple black text reading "Steve McQueen As Bullitt". A scarce poster for this highly influential movie.
