If an insert on Ocean's 11 is worth over 9 grand (give me a break!)---it
doesn't seem that far-fetched that this 40x60 might be worth $3500 to $4000.

I have never seen this 40x60 before, and is very cool, much better art than
the R-30x40. Zeev, I guess the question to the Brando collectors would
be, would YOU pay what the appraiser estimated? I guess if it came to auction
we would all find out if it would reach that estimate. I am usually
surprised with very rare posters either going well above the estimate or well
below it. Case in point is the 40x60 for 'It Came from Outer Space" selling
for
$9,500!

I thought this poster would sell for around $3-4k, I bid up to $4,500 and
got crushed by other bidders, so you never know!!!

I like both, though think I prefer the second one.
Nothing more menacing than cartoon characters tearing a town up, it's a
bit Ronald Searle.

Kirby, I’m guessing you’re not a Brando collector, otherwise I can’t see
how you could dismiss this find so easily.
You are right, the realistic accuracy of the design would not matter to
Brando fans and collectors (and I am one of them) in this case. I mean, the
discovery of a Brando poster, for one of his key roles, that features art
that (almost?) no one has ever seen before is a major find, in my opinion.
I think all collectors with even a passing interest in Brando would be
floored by this poster.
As to the question “who rides a motorcycle like that?” I refer you to
Dragstrip Riot(1958)
_http://www.moviegoods.com/movie_poster/dragstrip_riot_1958.htm_
(http://www.moviegoods.com/movie_poster/dragstrip_riot_1958.htm)
from where the image was most certainly lifted.
I’m not familiar with the design of the Hot Blood insert. Is it
different from the standard Wild One insert?

Thanks for posting this. I did not see my esteemed colleague Mr. Franchi
on ANTIQUES ROADSHOW with this undeniably rare reissue 40x60, so I am
interested to read this post.
Rare it may be, and perhaps some Brando completist would pay the estimate,
but if the design of this poster were to count at all, the film would be
entitled THE WEIRD ONE.
Who rides a motorcycle like that? Waving a wrench about! Ludicrous! And
where is the locale? Is this in the film? They look like they're riding
thru the set of CHEAPER BY THE DOZEN.
Ugly! Give me one of the nice lobbies and I'll call that the prettiest
poster on the film. Or the HOT BLOOD insert.
My two centavos.

Just watched this online. It's Rudy's appraisal of a Wild One 40x60 from
last night's Antiques Roadshow. Never saw one of these before. Might be the
best US paper for the movie.
