  Barbarella

  £395.00

  “Barbarella, an astronaut from the 41st century, sets out to find and stop the evil scientist Durand Durand, whose Positronic Ray threatens to bring evil back into the galaxy.”

  In arguably the most famous role of her career, Jane Fonda stars as “Barbarella” in Roger Vadim’s, campy, sci-fi fantasy. Based on the hugely popular French comic strip by Jean-Claude Forest the film is considered one of the 1960s quintessential cult movies. Its stylish and colourful comic art layout scenes are truly unique for the period, and represent a nice homage to its comic book roots. These scenes are captured to great effect in a series of eight British front of house lobby cards with Fonda featured in all, including the iconic and super sexy ray-gun in hand pose. In addition to the set offered, also included is the hard to find synopsis card and the brochure. The brochure is particularly striking being finished in black and white with a silver background and pink lettering. Originally flat-unfolded (as issued) this beautiful complete set of all eight cards and extras display superbly, vibrant, unfaded colours and an incredible selection of key scenes. An impressive set of highly collectable cinematic memorabilia for a much admired sci-fi classic that rarely turns up as complete as here.

  Trivia: Jane Fonda is filmed at times, especially during the opening spacesuit striptease sequence, in the famous French director’s “Vadim Tease” directorial style.

  Barbarella

  £195.00

  “Who seduces an angel? Who strips in space? Who conveys love by hand? Who gives up the pill? Who takes sex to outer space? Who’s the girl of the 21st century? Who nearly dies of pleasure?”

  In arguably the most famous role of her career, Jane Fonda stars as “Barbarella” in Roger Vadim’s, campy, sci-fi fantasy. Based on the hugely popular French comic strip by Jean-Claude Forest the film is considered one of the 1960s quintessential cult movies. And it’s the titular Barbarella, who is featured in close up clutching a ray gun, in a very pop art looking alternative movie poster design by Tim Jordan (Blunt Graffix). Created in 2013, exclusively for the Weapon of Choice II convention with a very limited print run of only twenty (20) – this is hand-numbered #2 and also signed by the artist. Originally rolled (as issued) this beautiful example displays to excellent effect with vibrant, unfaded colours that pop from the paper and a stylish design. It would make for a fantastic addition to any collection or as a one-off display piece that represents a highly collectable piece of cinematic and artistic memorabilia for a much admired cult, sci-fi classic.

  Trivia: Barbarella was the first science fiction hero from comics to be adapted into a feature film, as opposed to a serial. Flash Gordon and Buck Rogers, her male predecessors, had only appeared in serials.
