MAGNIFICENT SEVEN, THE (1960) Half sheet poster, style B

The Magnificent Seven. Yul Brynner, Steve McQueen, dir: John Sturges; United Artists. Vintage original 22 x 28″ (56 x 91 cm) half sheet poster style B, USA. Folded, with various small staple holes and minor creasing, very good.

For this classic American remake of Akira Kurosawa’s Seven Samurai (which is now a classic in its own right), the distributor created this unusual poster, with its stylized artwork on the left centering on the number “7” — artwork which was not used in the same form on any other of the various American posters.
