  Casino

  £195.00

  “They had it all, they ran the show, and it was paradise…while it lasted.”

  An eye-catching and impressive original US/International one-sheet movie poster for Martin Scorsese’s 1995 Las Vegas set gangster epic “Casino”. This is the much rarer and sought after ‘lucky dice’ style. A very cool, good looking poster design that presents here to excellent effect being originally rolled (as issued). Totally original and unrestored the colours are deep and unfaded and the imagery crisp and sharp, it displays superbly and represents an extremely collectable piece of original 1990’s cinema memorabilia from a truly ‘great’ modern gangster movie.

  Trivia: “Casino” was filmed entirely in the Las Vegas valley. The casino and office scenes were filmed in the famed Riviera Hotel and Casino on the Las Vegas strip, and the driving scene in the beginning of the movie was filmed on Fremont Street in downtown Las Vegas, which is no longer open to automobile traffic.

  Goodfellas

  £225.00

  “As far back as I can remember, I’ve always wanted to be a gangster.” — Henry Hill, Brooklyn, N.Y. 1955.”

  Martin Scorsese’s “Goodfellas” is an iconic motion picture and a giant of the crime genre that will stand the test of time for years and years to come. An absolutely beautiful complete set of all eight (8) US front of house lobby cards for one of the best gangster films ever made…Martin Scorsese’s “Goodfellas”. Featuring a series of eight fantastic full colour images with our highlight card – Robert De Niro, Joe Pesci and RayLiotta from the famous card playing scene where Tommy (Pesci) shoots Spider (Michael Imperioli). Originally flat and unfolded (as issued) all eight (8) appear unused and present to excellent effect. Hugely desirable and a must have title for the serious poster collector or Goodfellas fan it represents a premium piece of quality collectable movie memorabilia.

  Trivia: The “How am I funny?” scene is based on something that actually happened to Joe Pesci. While working in a restaurant, a young Pesci apparently told a mobster that he was funny, a compliment that was met with a less-than-enthusiastic response. Pesci relayed the anecdote to Martin Scorsese, who decided to include it in the film. Scorsese didn’t include the scene in the shooting script, so that Pesci and Ray Liotta‘s interactions would elicit genuinely surprised reactions from the supporting cast.

  The Irishman

  £175.00

  “If they can whack a President, they can whack a president of a union. You know it and I know it.”

  This is certainly one of the most compelling and despite its three hour plus runtime, most watchable films Martin Scorsese has directed. It is an epic  motion picture that will stand the test of time for years and years to come. The ‘cast’ style UK quad film poster by Concept Arts that accompanied this 2019 release of “The Irishman” was equally as striking as it features three of the greatest actors of any generation – Robert De Niro, Al Pacino & Joe Pesci. The originally rolled (as issued), unrestored example offered here has minimal handling and displays & presents to excellent effect with dark unfaded background and outstanding character imagery. Very scarce with a incredibly low print run, as it was essentially a Netflix streaming service movie which received a limited cinematic release so it would qualify as a contender for Academy Award recognition and was only shown in a handful of independent cinemas with no general release. A must have title for the serious collector or fan.

  Trivia: “I heard you paint houses” were the first words Jimmy Hoffa ever spoke to Frank “The Irishman” Sheeran. On The Tonight Show, Robert De Niro remarked that the term, along with “I also do my own carpentry work,” refer to both the hit and the clean-up.
