DIRTY HARRY

One Sheet (27" x 41"); Triple Bill Style From the David Frangioni Collection
Very Fine Folded
Warner Bros., c.1973

Provenance: David Frangioni is a published author, music businessman, producer, technologist, engineer, philanthropist, and drummer. He has worked with Aerosmith, Shakira, Ringo Starr, Ozzy Osbourne, Robbie Williams, and hundreds more. He is CEO of Modern Drummer Magazine and has several books published, including Clint Eastwood: Icon: The Essential Film Art Collection and Crash: The World's Greatest Drum Kits, both by Insight Editions. Frangioni is considered one of the world's most prominent and knowledgeable collectors of Clint Eastwood memorabilia and boasts an enviable archive of movie posters and memorabilia.

This rare one sheet is likely for a 1972 or 1973 reissue of Clint Eastwood's first outing as Dirty Harry in 1971. The unusual design features elements from other posters including The Good, The Bad and The Ugly (1968), Superfly (1972) and James Bond with the tagline in the center of the poster then referencing these other movies by saying that Dirty Harry is the "roughest and toughest" of them all!

Drawing from the real-life case of the Zodiac Killer, this gritty, cynical cop thriller from director Don Siegel gifted Clint Eastwood with a career-defining role as the eponymous rule-breaking detective and paved the way for a series of sequels that would extend well into the late '80s.
