Asphalt Jungle can be remedied with either the Italian poster very nice or the elusive Spanish 1 sheet which is a real humdinger. A film noir poster that really should be a top seller when found is the German poster for Highway 301 (1959) featuring a manical looking Steve Cochran aptly named Der Panther.

Film Noir is such a wide subjective range. Personally I have sold many but I cannot say over the years multiples - the one I think was the best was the UK Quad for To Have and to Have Not...arguably the best paper on the film.
One that I get requested the most is Out of the Past one sheet - possibly the best image of Mitchum ever. But does Blade Runner enter into the fray? - okay it's Sci Fi but it was filmed in the noir style - for me this is the poster I have sold the most that can be deemed a noir film. Does 12 Angry Men sneak into the noir genre? If so I have sold a few of them. One that doesn't do me any favours yet the film is a noir classic is The Asphalt Jungle - not an inspiring poster. I do like the Veronica Lake titles as well such as This Gun For Hire - that does float my boat. This Never Happened to the Other Fella.... -----Original Message-----
