“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 waviness across the surface (which would disappear with linen backing) and some corner wear. Excellent condition. The lobby cards suffer from heavy wear to the corners with creases, pin holes and some paper loss. Very Good condition overall with some lesser.
