This is a Vintage, Original poster produced and distributed by the movie studio, Paramount Pictures. Released January 1966, it premiered in Miami Florida June 1966. Based on a character in the novel, The Carpetbaggers by Harold Robbins, the film featured a star-studded lineup including lead actor Steve McQueen, Karl Malden, Brian Keith and Arthur Kennedy.

His odyssey includes spiritual re-parenting at several stages, most notably by canny gun dealer Jonas Cord, played by Brian Keith.
