Jack Hubbard (1913 1985) was a British poster artist who worked from the 1950s to the 1980s producing artwork for 20th Century Fox, Gala, Eros, Mondial, New Realm, British Lion and Embassy. He started his career as a cartographer in the Royal Artillery, and was stationed in India where he achieved the rank of Conductor, a position held by a very small handful of selected Warrant Officers Class 1. After the war, he began painting for the British Studios, predominantly 20th Century Fox, but was not allowed to sign his work as he was freelance. He worked on almost every major Fox release for over 25 years. Jack would journey into Londons Soho Square on a Monday to pick up the film work folder which had stills, synopsis or a story description and other information about the film, and he had to return to the Fox offices on Thursday with usually 3 versions of a poster. Changes to the poster would be made during a meeting to be green lit by the studios publicity manager. Jack came up with the CinemaScope logo which became a registered trademark for Fox. This poster was part of his personal collection of printed works which he worked on. They all came to him direct from the printers and the quads and double crowns were all bi-folded. Condition Report: Excellent condition, minor edge creasing lower right end edge, light fold creasing, small pencil mark lower left hand corner, pencil sketch 15x18 inches to reverse
