  • LEMMY Movie Poster

    LEMMY

    £150.00

    “49% Motherf**ker, 51% Son of a Bitch.”

    Heavy metal rock gods don’t come any more legendary than Motorhead front man ‘Lemmy’ (Lemmy Kilmister). A true British institution and all-round ‘top-bloke’ as featured here in the 2010 documentary “Lemmy” by Greg Olliver and Wes Orshoski.  With testimonials by rock’s leading ‘Hall of Famers” (many of which are featured on the UK quad design) this is a remarkable cinematic biography. Designed by OTMentertain the imagery on the British quad places Lemmy centre stage offset against an ‘Ace of Spades’ logo. The advertising campaign for the movie was very low key and the UK film posters that accompanied the extremely limited cinema release are truly scarce. Originally rolled (as issued) this incredibly rare example displays to excellent effect and represents a fantastic collectable item of music, film and cultural memorabilia.

    Trivia: The film crew had to clean Lemmy’s kitchen to shoot the shot of Lemmy making breakfast cause Lemmy didn’t want to do it or to shoot in a dirty kitchen.

    Withnail and I

    £125.00

    “You are invited to spend an hilarious weekend in the English countryside”

    With its iconic Ralph Steadman artwork an original 1987 UK quad film poster for Bruce Robinson’s massive cult hit “Withnail and I” is one of the scarcest and most sought after British film posters of the 80’s with prices (if you can find one) into four figures. Thank fully for the 10th Anniversary re-release in 1997 Handmade Films produced a ‘new’ poster for this remastered cult classic, which although rare (again due to limited cinematic releases) are available. Steadman’s design is retained for the title with gilt framed colour photograph of the titular “Withnail and I” (Richard E. Grant and Paul McGann) off setting a yellow linoleum floor full of fag ends, beans and rubbish…Very in-keeping with the overall atmosphere of squalor that pervades the film. Offered here is an exceptional unrestored country of origin British UK quad movie poster from 1997 re-release for one of the most celebrated British film’s of recent times. Originally rolled (as issued) this presents and displays superbly and represents a much more affordable alternative for a truly classic cult British movie which respected critic and entertainer Jonathan Ross described as…“One of the funniest British films ever made”.

    Withnail and I

    £1,795.00

    “I must have some booze. I demand to have some booze ! We want the finest wines available to humanity. And we want them here, and we want them now !”

    With its iconic Ralph Steadman artwork an incredible find, an original 1987 UK quad film poster for Bruce Robinson’s classic cult hit “Withnail and I”. Although now regarded as a truly iconic film on its initial release the reception was (too say the least) lukewarm based upon a very low key marketing campaign. One of the scarcest and most desirable British film posters of the 80’s. Steadman’s unique and immediately recognisable design for the title is bordered with an ornate gilded frame off set against a white tiled toilet wall covered with graffiti …Very much complementing the overall atmosphere of squalor that pervades the film. Offered here is an exceptional unrestored country of origin British UK quad movie poster from 1987  for one of the most celebrated British film’s of recent times. Originally ROLLED (as issued) this presents and displays without a fault; truly exceptional, investment grade condition original film movie memorabilia for…“One of the funniest British films ever made”…Jonathan Ross.

    Trivia: Much of this film’s promotional art is designed by illustrator Ralph Steadman, in the famous gonzo style he used and created for the works of Hunter S. Thompson notably Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas (1998). He is listed as Miscellaneous Crew.
