  The Princess Bride

  £595.00

  “Heroes. Giants. Villains. Wizards. True Love. – Not just your basic, average, everyday, ordinary, run-of-the-mill, ho-hum fairy tale.”

  A very COOL poster for a much loved action adventure fantasy romance.  This original “The Princess Bride” movie poster has it all; amazing artwork by Steve Crisp for Hat ART Design, great detail & super colours. It is also very rare and one of the scarcest movie posters from the 80’s to find. The original UK quad movie poster offered here is from first year of release, 1987 and displays to excellent effect. Originally rolled (as issued) it is presented in beautiful near perfect unrestored condition and could truly be considered investment grade quality – it’s the best example of this poster I have ever offered for sale. A genuinely rare fantasy classic cinema poster that represents extremely desirable and collectable movie memorabilia, especially if you are a fan of Heroes, Giants, Wizards & True Love (& let’s face it who isn’t).

  Trivia: According to author William Goldman, when he was first trying to get the movie made in the 1970s, a then-unknown Arnold Schwarzenegger wanted to play Fezzik, and he was strongly being considered because Goldman could never get his first choice, André the Giant, to read for the role. By the time the movie was made about twelve years later, Schwarzenegger was such a big star they could not afford him. Andre was cast after all, and the two big men had gone on to become friends.

  Valentino

  £60.00

  “In life he was a movie star, in death he became a legend”…Rare and original UK Quad quad film poster for Ken Russell’s 1977 biopic of the silent screen heart-throb Rudolph Valentino…”Valentino”. Controversial director Ken Russell chose the ballet dancer Rudolf Nureyev to star in what turned out to be a lavish but under-rated production…This originally folded example looks superb with deep rich colours and detailling, focusing on the two stars (Nureyev & Leslie Caron). Like most of Russell’s films it only had a very limited release so posters like this are genuinely rare & very hard to come by.
