  20,000 Leagues Under The Sea

  £325.00

  “A ship sent to investigate a wave of mysterious sinkings encounters the advanced submarine, the Nautilus, commanded by Captain Nemo.“

  This alternative movie poster by Thai artist Kwow for Jules Verne’s “20,000 Leagues Under the Sea” is a spectacular display of imaginative artwork. Kwow’s impressive artwork beautifully imagines the most memorable action scene from the book and the film as the giant squid attacks the Nautilus and its beautifully complemented by some amazing realistic likenesses of the main cast members – James Mason as Captain Nemo, Kirk Douglas, Peter Lorre and Paul Lukas. If you are a Jules Verne fan, this is simply one of the best pieces of art you can get. Directed Richard Fleischer and personally produced by Walt Disney. It was the first feature-length Disney film to be distributed by Buena Vista Distribution company and is also considered by many to be a precursor to the ‘Steampunk’ genre. Printed on Fedrigoni Stucco Old Mill Premium White paper using 10 coloured inks, this hand-numbered #57/110 screen print displays and presents superbly and is offered in excellent rolled (as issued) condition. Film and alternative movie posters by Thai artists are starting to gain a strong following with collectors, and with artists like Ise Ananphada, Banhan, Kwow and Tongdee Panumas, it’s easy to see why. An eye-catching item of modern movie memorabilia for an extremely popular Walt Disney fantasy adventure film that creates a real ‘WOW’ factor.

  Trivia: In 1969, Captain Nemo’s pipe organ, which had been on display in Disneyland, was redressed and now resides in the ballroom of Disneyland’s Haunted Mansion. A duplicate was constructed for the ballroom of  Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom Haunted Mansion, which opened in 1971, and over a decade later another duplicate was built for Tokyo Disneyland.

  Casablanca

  £275.00

  “They had a date with fate in Casablanca !”

  “Casablanca“ is a timeless classic and top of every film fans watchlist to see, technically brilliant for just about every aspect of filmmaking and just a marvellous viewing pleasure  with the sexual chemistry between the two stars Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman one of the reasons the movie was so watchable and successful. As a general rule Park Circus re-release posters are incredibly scarce due to limited print runs and distribution, being shown in literally a handful of independent and ‘art-house’ cinemas. The updated imagery, supplied here by Park Circus’ regular poster collaborators Randak ticks all the boxes. The rolled (as issued) UK quad offered here is from the 2007 release and displays to excellent effect with fantastic colour tones and minimal handling wear. A great looking piece of golden era Hollywood cinema memorabilia for a true classic movie.

  Trivia: In 2006 this film’s script was named the best screenplay of all time by the Writers Guild of America.
