A very rare original 1957 U.S theatrical poster to promote the release of the movie Jailhouse Rock, an American crime prison musical drama directed by Richard Thorpe and starring Elvis Presley, Judy Tyler, Mickey Shaughnessy, Vaughn Taylor, and Jennifer Holden.
The film follows a young man (Presley) who is sentenced to prison for manslaughter who is mentored in music by his prison cellmate who realises his musical abilities. After his release from jail, while looking for a job as a club singer, the young man meets a musical promoter (Tyler) who helps him launch his career. As he develops his musical talent and becomes a star, his self-centred personality begins to affect his relationships. This is possibly Presley's best movie, and the artwork creatd by Bradshaw Crandell features one of the best images of Elvis out of all the 31 movies he starred in.
