 |
| Notes : Blessed with the gift of identifying the one image which symbolised the movie, SAUL BASS then recreated it in a strikingly modern style. Complex story about a San Francisco detective and his psychological troubles with fear of heights and obsession over a woman.
The graphic designer was Saul Bass. Saul Bass is probably the most famous name in the graphic arts industry. He worked on some sixty movie titles and posters as well as many instantly-recognizable corporate logos.
Saul Bass liked to use stark designs, spirals and favored black, white and red. The poster for Vertigo is a typical example of his movie poster work. Alfred Hitchcock employed him for posters promoting Vertigo, North by Northwest and Psycho. The film Vertigo was about two people behaving in two different ways in the two halves of the movie. This duality gave Saul Bass the context. He was asked to design a poster to entice an audience.
Plainly speaking, the poster is of a man and a woman spiraling into the eye of a vortex. The spiral is white. The man is solid black. The woman is outlined, like the police do. The lettering is the solid black Hitchcock font. The stars of the film are James Stewart and Kim Novak. Their names and Hitchcock's are written above the spiral. The name of the film is in bold at the bottom left below the spiral. Extra credits are written small below the title. |

| Notes : VERTIGO (1958) - Art by SAUL BASS, Original US One Sheet. James Stewart stars in one of Alfred Hitchcock's best pictures as a detective who falls in love with a woman he's hired to follow. When she turns up dead, his obsession with her makes him change another woman into her image. Imagine his surprise when it turns out that she's the same woman. Magnificent Saul Bass art graces this very cool one sheet.
Much has been made of the deceptively intricate styling of the work of poster artist Saul Bass for one of Hitchcock's best. The genius begins with the selection of the 'nervous font' Bass uses in the top credits, simply calling the film 'Alfred Hitchcock's Masterpiece.' But the cleverest part of the poster is the uneven plane the central characters find themselves swept into as they spiral into a vortex that spreads across 3/5ths of the poster. The man in black is harming/helping, depending on your mood. The woman is in a police-styled drawn outline, with a pool of blood between them. So engaging is the design one noted director said that, for him, the film began when he first saw the poster. |

| Notes : North by Northwest (MGM, 1959). Six Sheet (81' X 81'). Cary Grant stars in one of Alfred Hitchcock's best films as an 'everyday' kind of guy who gets caught up in unusual circumstances, to say the least. Mistaken for a federal agent, he is kidnapped, drugged, and dragged into an espionage plot, a favorite subject for the master of suspense. The conclusion occurs on the face of Mount Rushmore in a climax that only Hitchcock could stage. This RARE imposing six sheet uses the familiar art that appeared on most of the other pieces produced for this film. |

One of director Alfred Hitchcock's greatest films, this is the story of advertising exec Roger Thornhill (Cary Grant) who is mistaken for a government agent and pursued by a gang of hostile spies who chase him across the country as he struggles to survive. The attack by a crop dusting plane, as seen in this highly desirable lobby card, is one of the highlights of the film. |
