"The Man with the Golden Arm" Original US Film Poster
By Saul Bass
Located in London, GB
Original US film poster.
Saul Bass was born in New York. Bass was a rotund, jovial character. After studying at the Art Students League and graduating from Brooklyn College, he moved west at the age of 26, and is credited with introducing an East Coast sensibility to marketing.

The following year the director invited the artist to work on The Man With The Golden Arm...
