Dean Martin Movie Poster Book

He is considered to be one of the most popular and enduring American entertainers of the mid-20th century. He was nicknamed the "King of Cool" for his seemingly effortless charisma and self-assurance, wrote one biographer. He is best known for his classic comedy films with Jerry Lewis, but he achieved solo success and won critical acclaim in films by himself, including his participation in the iconic Rat Pack.

He is Dean Martin.

The Dean Martin Movie Poster Book celebrates Martin's 35-year movie career, from 1949 to 1984, presenting original movie posters from 52 feature films, including his 16 with Lewis.

All of his solo films are represented including his critically acclaimed roles in The Young Lions (1958) and Some Came Running (1958) as well as Rio Bravo (1959) which earned him international fame; one of his best remembered films, Ocean's 11 (1960), with other legendary Rat Pack members: Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr., Joey Bishop and Peter Lawford; Bells Are Ringing (1960) and Robin and the 7 Hoods (1964), again with Rat Packers Sammy Davis Jr. and Sinatra.

There are even posters from Martin's popular series of films as secret agent Matt Helm, Airport (1970), The Cannonball Run and II (1981/1984), and a wealth of others.

At 62 pages and in full color, The Dean Martin Poster Book is a fitting tribute to one of the greatest entertainers of all time.
