Love Me Tender

The iconic 1956 British quad film poster with printing by Kent art printers Ltd. of Chatam. Tom Chantrell's artwork pays tribute to the screen debut of Elvis Presley and we are in no doubt that this is a film primarily about the rise of one of the greatest music talents ever to grace the business. 20th Century Fox were making an inexpensive black & white CinemaScope western called "The Reno Brothers" when they got lucky and cast the younger brother Clint Reno as one Elvis Presley. The title of the western was changed to the title of the song that Elvis made a hit - the ballad "Love me tender." The film repaid the investment in just three days. Great colours and pinholes in the corners as seen.
