Original Paul Newman Movie Posters

Paul Newman movie posters document one of cinema's most complex leading men, gathering original material from roles spanning crime dramas, westerns, and character-driven narratives across four decades. Newman's theatrical campaigns from the 1960s and 1970s are particularly valued, with his collaborations with director George Roy Hill and co-star Robert Redford generating the most actively traded materials.

Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (1969) and The Sting (1973) — both directed by Hill and both co-starring Redford — produced campaigns that are among the most beloved of their era. Twentieth Century Fox's materials for Butch Cassidy deploy a sun-bleached warmth that matches the film's elegiac tone; Universal's Sting campaign uses period-accurate 1930s graphic design in a self-referential pastiche that anticipates the film's con-within-a-con structure. Earlier work includes Cat on a Hot Tin Roof (1958), The Hustler (1961), Hud (1963), Cool Hand Luke (1967), and Slap Shot (1977). Later films — Absence of Malice (1981), The Verdict (1982), The Color of Money (1986, winning his only Oscar), Nobody's Fool (1994) — extend the range into the 1990s.

Available in US one-sheets, Italian foglio, French grandes affiches, British quads, and lobby card sets. Condition runs Fine to Very Fine. Original theatrical paper from his peak period — The Hustler, Cool Hand Luke, Butch Cassidy — is scarce in fine condition.
