BID PER WHAT YOU SEE IN THE PHOTO, NOT THE AI GENERATED TITLES AND DESCRIPTIONS! Original Movie One-Sheet Poster for The Bootlegger’s Angel Starring Jaclyn Smith
This is an original one-sheet movie poster for the film The Bootlegger’s Angel, a 1977 re-release title for the 1974 production Bootleggers. This specific poster was designed to leverage the popularity of lead actress Jaclyn Smith following her success in the television series Charlie’s Angels, as indicated by the printed tagline Charlie’s Favorite Angel. The poster is a Howco International Pictures release, produced and directed by Charles B. Pierce.
The central graphic features a large illustration of Jaclyn Smith holding a revolver, dressed in a red and white striped tied shirt and denim jeans. Behind her are depictions of two men with their hands raised and a scene of two women bathing in a river. The background is a solid bright yellow.
The credits block lists starring roles for Jaclyn Smith, Paul Koslo, Dennis Fimple, and Slim Pickens as Grandpa Pruitt. Additional credits include Earl E. Smith as writer, Gordon Eastman as associate producer, Jaime Mendoza-Nava for music, and L.W. Ledwell and Charles B. Pierce as executive producers.
The poster includes several identification marks in the lower margins:
The bottom right margin is printed with the number 770165 and the film title THE BOOTLEGGER’S ANGEL.
The bottom center margin is marked STYLE B.
The bottom left margin contains the text LITHO. IN U.S.A. followed by a standard National Screen Service (NSS) legal disclaimer.
The poster carries a PG Parental Guidance Suggested rating.
