This is an original Japanese poster printed in 1952 for the first release of The Savage.
This poster was acquired along with many 1950s posters that came from an old cinema that closed down in the 1970s. The posters were used in the cinema at the time almost 70 years ago and show some signs of use such as staining, tears and fold lines. Although the posters were folded they have been stored flat and will display very nicely once framed.
The Savage is a 1952 Technicolor Western film directed by George Marshall. The film stars Charlton Heston, Susan Morrow, and Peter Hansen. Much of The Savage was shot in the Black Hills of South Dakota. The film is based on L. L. Foreman's novel, The Renegade, first published in 1949 by Pocket Books.
