Doubling your Dollar in 1969

Doubling your Dollar in 1969
I wanted to post a few bits here for the U.S. 1969 Double-Bill release of A Fistful of Dollars / For a Few Dollars More. Hoping to cash in for a second time around and on the back of the success of The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, United Artists re-released the first two classic dollar westerns, pairing them up for a limited run. The two movies were also shown together in Australia and in the U.K. where it had a 2-week run at the London Pavilion in April 1969.
