    Not sure - is it the Y rating?

  • Well spotted David!
  • A daybill was created for the  re-release of The Racers made in 1955 and re-released in the 1960's by changing a 1964 image from the later film The Lively Set using part of  the original  artwork. The poster artist didn't even bother to remove the yellow colour and black line between James Darren and Pamela Tiffin and part of the black line behind Tiffin. What I find interesting though is that the re-issue daybill poster is for 20th Century Fox and they have blatantly copied material from a Universal Picture. No printers name appears on The Racers and Robert Burton printed The Lively Set.


    Hondo.

  • 20th Century looks like a stock poster.
