(It also matched Marlo Thomas’s That Girl graphics.)

"That Girl" premiered in 1966. "Funny Girl" opened in 1964 so the Marlo Thomas graphics actually matched the Funny Girl graphics. I wonder if it was the same artist.

That artist was named Talivaldis Stubis. I don't know if he had anything to do with THAT GIRL, but he did design the posters for CAMELOT and ANYONE CAN WHISTLE.

(HealthNewsDigest.com 2009) - Talivaldis Stubis, the prolific graphic designer and illustrator whose works reached millions through some of the best-known Broadway posters, movie posters, and children’s books over the last 50 years, passed away peacefully after a long but painless battle with amyloidosis. He was 83.
Perhaps the artist’s most memorable image was for the Broadway musical, “Funny Girl,” an upside-down girl on roller skates whose body spells out the title, but he worked on literally hundreds of other now-iconic posters for stage and screen. His Broadway works included Eugene Ionesco’s “Rhinoceros,” “Camelot,” “The Most Happy Fella,” “Anyone Can Whistle,” “Night of the Iguana,” and “Flower Drum Song.”
From 1963 to 1980 Stubis was senior art director for a boutique agency working on many of the best-known movie poster campaigns of the 20th century, including Stanley Kubrick’s “A Clockwork Orange” and “Barry Lyndon,” “Deliverance,” The Sting, and The Exorcist. Later he worked on many of the most popular film campaigns for Paramount Pictures, including “Airplane!” “Elephant Man,” “Reds,” “Ordinary People,” “An Officer and a Gentleman,” “Witness,” “Star Trek,” and “Raiders of the Lost Ark.” Gustave

Wow! Well thanks for that information. He did some very fine work and also did some books as well as his posters.
