  • HEAT Alternative Movie Poster

    Heat

    £295.00

    “A group of high-end professional thieves start to feel the heat from the LAPD when they unknowingly leave a verbal clue at their latest heist.”

    Michael Mann’s multi-award winning crime thriller “HEAT” has been complemented by a series of alternative movie poster commissions over the years and in 2026 Mad Duck commissioned leading artist – Paul Mann to create his version. For this limited edition, hand-numbered #36/85 example, Mann has produced an outstanding addition to the title, truly eye-catching and super stylish as he focuses on the lead and supporting characters. The bright, metallic colours are predominantly a silver and grey colour palette, that gives a really impressive effect. Originally flat and unfolded/rolled (as issued) this looks outstanding and displays to excellent effect. An extremely scarce alternative movie poster, that sold out in near record time that represents a hugely collectable item of movie memorabilia art that looks very very cool !

    Trivia: The coffee shop scene sold Robert De Niro on the idea of making the film. He, Al Pacino, and Michael Mann later admitted that they couldn’t wait to shoot that one scene.

  • Trading Places Movie Poster

    Trading Places

    £275.00

    “They’re not just getting rich… They’re getting even.”

    Directed by John Landis and starring Eddie Murphy and Dan Aykroyd, “Trading Places” is one of the strongest comedies of the 1980s and stands as some of the best work for the main participants. With impressive artwork by Adrian Purkis the film poster that accompanied the release is a very clever design and one of the most memorable and best of the comedy genre. The original 1983 UK (British) one sheet movie poster offered here was originally folded (as issued) & presents in excellent unrestored condition with great colours and outstanding artwork. A very rare poster and genuinely scarce in this British portrait format that represents a highly very collectible & desirable original film memorabilia from a film lauded as a modern comedy classic and poster artwork that is such great fun!

    Trivia: In 2010, as part of the Wall Street Transparency and Accountability Act, which was to regulate financial markets, a rule was included which barred anyone from using secret inside information to corner markets, similar to what the Duke brothers tried to do in the movie. Since the movie inspired this rule, it has since become known as the Eddie Murphy Rule.
