“Top Gun” was one of the greatest movies ever to come out of the 1980’s and certainly one of the best ‘pop corn’ films of all-time, so it’s some surprise that it’s taken another 34 years to once again take to the skies with ace naval fighter pilot Pete Mitchell as Tom Cruise returns to his best loved role in the much delayed (due to Covid 19) 2022 sequel “Top Gun: Maverick”. The image featured here on this British quad shows a flight-suit attired Cruise standing proudly in front of his jet fighter. Graphic design agency Concept Arts have created a truly memorable poster with an image that will be used for the worldwide marketing campaign.

Trivia: Tom Cruise’s involvement in this movie was predicated on the condition that real aircraft be used in the aerial sequences, not CGI.

With the growing popularity of online streaming and Viewing On Demand certain TV shows have achieved viewing figures that are comparable to major Hollywood films. Alan Ball’s “TRUE BLOOD” is one such TV show. Based on the best selling vampire novels of Charlaine Harris the HBO produced series proved incredibly popular running over 7 Seasons from 2008 – 2014. Introducing the viewer to vampires, werewolves, witches, goblins and fairies “TRUE BLOOD” was one of the most popular TV shows across the globe without a truly large and devoted fan base. Like the Movie studios, TV companies began treating their shows with similar advertising campaigns and posters and merchandising were produced to promote their most popular products. This is a rare example of the 201o US one sheet style TV poster used to promote Season 3 of “TRUE BLOOD”. Featuring a great ‘dark moody’ and very sexy cast shot it’s a fantastic looking piece and guaranteed original. Presented in excellent near mint rolled (as issued) condition it appears almost faultless and represents an investment grade example of desirable and collectable original TV memorabilia.
