nothing about this screams Pfeiffer to me.
Mack's collarbone looks a little Pfeifferish.
The stretch with the gangster whitewalls is
interesting. The girls look happy.

Stan Shaw had in his notes that this movie poster was a Pfeiffer. I agree, the style is too cartoony for a Pfeiffer, but then he did have some different styles. And if you blow up the picture, you can see some telltale Pfeiffer-ish painting styles especially on the ladies.

This cover is from a hard to find VHS copy, but the dvd available also carries this artwork.

I have it in my notes, but I'm trying to confirm this. I could be a McGinnis. They were all doing Blaxploitation poster art at the time (1973).

Yes. This is a Fred Pfeiffer painting. My sister Gale said she posed for 3 of the women. He simply painted them differently. But this is definitely Fred Pfeiffer's work.
