The Kissing Bandit

Very rare old handbill of the Hollywood movie, The Kissing Bandit (1948) for sale.

This is an actual surviving original vintage handbill of the 1948 film that starred Frank Sinatra in the lead role.

Printed and circulated during the original first release run of the film in India (1950), this vintage handbill for sale was actually distributed outside a cinema hall that screened the film and possibly used as a flyer insert in local newspapers.

This old movie handbill features a combination of photographic and hand painted artwork. It was designed and printed for the promotion of the film at an Indian theater (Western India Theaters Limited Poona), where it was screened. The exact dates of release of the film (May 1950) are printed on the reverse side of this old movie handbill. The reverse side also contains teaser ads for upcoming films due to be screened in the theater in the month of May (1950).
