But alas, only achieved the look of just a cheap duotone.
Nothing against a bit of colour, or full colour, fortunately, as generally you're not going to be getting anything else. Strong B&W stone litho got to be a nice change in my book, and highly appropriate for the genre.
But, each to their own.

Just checked the Heritage archives and the MovieGoods repro is actually a reproduction of the 1953 reissue. Its interesting that they chose to add another colour to the original art - possibly to make it more effective!

Just looking at the MovieGoods repro of the one sheet and it has yellow colouring added. Its referred to as Style "C".

Is the one Channing has a Style "A" or "B" and has anyone seen other styles?

I must say I disagree with Phil here. I think it's a really good poster, and, in my view it's one of those posters that looks better "in the flesh", so to speak than any picture
can communicate.  We have the three sheet but not a one sheet.

It's a great movie, but Victor Mature is no Robert Mitchum and GUN CRAZY is, in many ways, a one-of-a-kind movie, thanks to Joe Lewis's direction... and has great art.

Channing's notes that the studio deliberately wanted monochrome full bleed art for the one sheet is interesting and one wonders what was behind this thinking. But I don't see great design elements in this poster. Oddly enough, the Australian paper, especialy the daybill is much more attractive, using similar art and in colour.

Just checked, Channing still has his.

Don't know why this one isn't valued more highly generally, unless people find the monochrome a turn off.
Up there with Out of the Past and Gun Crazy paper for me.
Top Noir (literally) poster.
