Burbank, CA: Warner Brothers, 1966. Original pressbook for the 1966 film, based on the Lew Archer novel "The Moving Target," by Ross Macdonald. The name of the main character was changed, purportedly at Newman's insistence following the success of his previous two "H" named films, "Hud" and "The Hustler." He followed this one up with the classic Western "Hombre," so he may have been on to something.

11 x 17 inches. 19 pages, saddle stapled, with two advertising inserts, one regarding the release of the soundtrack. Very Good plus, with some light foxing.

Grant US. Silver Classic Noir. Spicer US.
