An ultra rare 1969 Italian original vintage movie poster for the film Che! Directed by Richard Fleischer directed the historical drama which is based on the real life of the famed Argentine revolutionary Che Guevara. The film follows Che (Omar Sharif) as he joins the conflict in Cuba during the 1950s. Working his way up in the ranks, Guevara eventually becomes the right-hand man to Fidel Castro (Jack Palance), who is determined to overthrow the Cuban dictatorship.
This rich and vibrant artwork was created by Italian artist Giuliano Nistri and printed in Italy, but for an English speaking U.S audience. Its an advance poster intended to tease the film before its general release.
