Vintage original 10.75 x 13.5 in. US double-weight matte photograph from the 1960s tattoo-themed fantasy/horror drama, THE ILLUSTRATED MAN, released in 1969 by Warner Bros./Seven Arts and directed by Jack Smight, in which in the 1930s, a psychotic drifter who's after the mystery woman who covered his whole body in illustrations that foresee distant future shows three of them (The Veldt, The Long Rain and The Last Night of the World, each written by Ray Bradbury) to a mesmerized traveler. The image depicts Felicia, the "seductive skin illustrator," with Carl (Rod Steiger), depicted fully nude to show that she has completely covered his body with "living" pictures that foresee the distant future. This photograph comes from a newspaper archive and features grease pencil marks in the bottom border. It is in fine+ condition as shown with a 3.5 in. vertical crease near the top left corner. Provenance: The Hearst Los Angeles Herald Examiner newspaper archive. When director Jack Smight contacted Ray Bradbury about buying the rights to "The Illustrated Man", Bradbury informed him he would sell it if Smight hired Burt Lancaster, Paul Newman or Rod Steiger for the lead role. Bradbury often told interviewers that Steiger had written various scenes in the film without credit in an attempt to improve the script and bring it back to the source material, which he (like Bradbury) felt was being travestied. According to the Guinness Book of World Records, this film has the record for longest time applying make-up each day, at 20 hours. Make-up director Gordon Bau and a team of eight assistants spent ten hours applying the temporary tattoos to Rod Steiger's torso, plus another full day tattooing his hands, legs and lower body.
