That image above looks a little like Lloyd Bridges, but probably not him.

Yes, I'll see what I can find out.

Yes, I thought that too. he had lots of industry contacts around that time so might have used some of them. He's on Facebook. Why not ask him?

(Quote) I started working in the film industry in 1979 and that was certainly the case. Things were also a lot more informal in those days with people doing. lot of the initial work themselves before finding a distributor. That quite often in…

It's curious that the only poster with the M classification is the daybill above, which makes me think that the others, including the one sheet were printed pre-release before they classification was known. I've worked on films that didn't have the …

Must be The Alligator People then (1959)

The first one doesn't have the M rating, perhaps printed before it was classified?

Got it! Saturday Night Fever (1977).

I was thinking of that, also The Warriors which has subway scenes.

The top RKO writing for a start...

Looking forward to it.

Love the daybill!

Lovely WOTW!

I'll take a stab in the dark with C354 - Field of Dreams (1989)?

C352 - Blade Runner?

Well, that took long enough! I Bury The Living (1958) - starring Richard Boone (Have Gun, Will Travel)
