*The Human Jungle* is distinguished on this poster by its billing of three performers: Gary Merrill, Jan Sterling, and Chuck Connors, who was still early in his career when the film came out in 1954. Released by Paramount, the crime drama was part of a wave of 1950s studio pictures that drew on the gritty, urban style of postwar film noir. Connors, who later became a television star on *The Rifleman*, is the name most worth noticing today, since the poster captures him before that fame. The record gives no printer or designer, so the artwork's maker remains unidentified.
