“A different kind of role” was an accurate description. While still a box-office success, Charro!, Elvis Presley’s only film where he did not sing on screen, was not hugely popular with his fans. Originally pitched to Clint Eastwood, this western still remains one of Elvis’ least-viewed, despite his excellent performance as Jess Wade, a former outlaw dragged into a somewhat intricate plot. Co-stars Ina Balin, Victor French and Solomon Sturges come along for the ride in Elvis’ only film for National General Pictures. The poster did its job of presenting Elvis as a serious western hero, with strong images and a bold overall design, but while he may have worn vengeance on his hip, he also wore the brand of a singer. One sheet measures 27 x 41 inches and presents with separations at the intersections of the factory folds, two small pieces of tape in the upper section, and other minor staining. Excellent condition.
