LOVE ME TENDER

British Quads (2) (30" x 40")
Fine+ on Linen; Artwork by Tom Chantrell
20th Century Fox , 1956

The vibrant pink "Love Me Tender" quad poster has been professionally restored with touch-ups within the border, including a chip from the lower center border. Airbrushing has been used to correct fold wear, applied liberally within the image. The poster appears to have been in good condition before the backing. The other version, featuring art by Tom Chantrell, was also in good shape before professional restoration and has received airbrushing on the folds and sporadically within the borders. Both posters are exceptional display pieces for Elvis enthusiasts.

Elvis starred in his first film, which told the story of the Reno brothers, historical figures who served in the Confederacy. Elvis played "Honest" Clint, the youngest of the brothers. The film was initially titled "The Reno Brothers" but was changed after the success of the hit song "Love Me Tender".
