I noticed that Bruce has a note on the descriptions of the Double McGuffin suitcase style one sheets that says:
“…. an advanced collector has told us that this poster is a Saul Bass design but Bass opposed his name being credited on the poster because the producers altered aspects of its design without his approval!” http://www.emovieposter.com/agallery/archiveitem/7734188.html The design on the Australian daybill is slightly different and I wonder if that might have been from the original concept. http://www.johnreid.helpinghost.com/DOUBLEMCGUFFIN.jpg Are there any Saul Bass experts out there who might have more definitive information about this?
