Description from the seller
Original vintage Yugoslavian theatrical movie poster for the classic Bruce Lee martial arts film The Big Boss (1971), directed by Lo Wei. Originally released in Hong Kong as Tang Shan Da Xiong and also known internationally as Fists of Fury, the film stars Bruce Lee, Maria Yi, James Tien and Han Ying-chieh.
The Big Boss was Bruce Lee's first major starring role and became the breakthrough film that established him as an international martial arts star.
This striking Yugoslavian poster features a particularly unusual regional design: a large illustrated image of Bruce Lee in action against a vivid green background, with the local title:
BRUCE LEE – VELIKI GAZDA / BIG BOSS
The poster also bears the Adriafilm Zagreb distributor mark and the tagline:
“Najzad u našim kinematografima!”
(“Finally in our cinemas!”)
