A rare US paper banner for a Clint Eastwood double bill of Hang 'Em High and The Good, The Bad & The Ugly. These scarce heavy stock banners were used between the late 1940s and late 1960s and were designed to hang above a cinema entrance or foyer. However, they were ordered in small numbers by the cinemas and were predominantly used at drive-ins. Many of these banners have not survived and even fewer survived in decent condition.

Provenance: David Frangioni is a published author, music businessman, producer, technologist, engineer, philanthropist, and drummer. He has worked with Aerosmith, Shakira, Ringo Starr, Ozzy Osbourne, Robbie Williams, and hundreds more. He is CEO of Modern Drummer Magazine and has several books published, including Clint Eastwood: Icon: The Essential Film Art Collection and Crash: The World's Greatest Drum Kits, both by Insight Editions. Frangioni is considered one of the world's most prominent and knowledgeable collectors of Clint Eastwood memorabilia and boasts an enviable archive of movie posters and memorabilia.
