“Get Ready For Rush Hour”
Designed by Dan Chapman this is an original 1994 UK Quad film poster for Jan De Bont’s exceedingly fast paced bomb on a bus actioner “Speed”. A true box-office blockbuster this movie quickly became an action classic spawning a sequal and acting as a template for many films since. In the same way “Die Hard” launched Bruce Willis as a credible action hero the same can be said of “Speed” and Keanu Reeves. This impressive, all-action film poster displays to excellent effect being originally rolled (as issued) with bright, unfaded colours and eye-catching imagery that represents a great piece of original cinematic movie memorabilia from the movie that launched the career of John Wick & Neo.
Trivia: The film was released one week before O.J. Simpson led Los Angeles police on a chase in a white Bronco after he was suspected of murder. After the Bronco chase, many audiences who saw the film in theaters noticed how closely scenes from the film resembled the real-life Bronco chase, including media coverage and aerial shots of Los Angeles freeways.

Trivia: William Shatner, (Captain Kirk) who saw the completed movie for the first time at the world premiere, was struck by the overall sluggishness of the movie, and was convinced that the Star Trek franchise died there and then. He reminisced, “Well, that’s it. We gave it our best shot, it wasn’t good, and it will never happen again.” But, having recalled his reaction fifteen years later, he has added, “Shows you what I know.”

Artist Josh Kirby painted a colourful all action sweeping montage exclusively for the 1983 British release of “Return of the Jedi”. These early version UK quad film posters were nearly all produced slightly trimmed (27″ x 40″) almost entirely for advertising use in the London Underground. Kirby’s design was quickly replaced by Kasu Sano’s updated imagery which featured the Ewoks. Presented here in fantastic unrestored condition this beautiful folded (as issued) example looks magnificent; deep unfaded vibrant colours. A rare example of original Star Wars movie memorabilia from what was until “Episode VII – The Force Awakens” released in 2015 was the last true Star Wars movie produced and represents a fantastic example of original Star Wars cinematic movie memorabilia from the defining chapter of the Original Trilogy.

A 1977 original year of release “Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope” Style C UK Quad featuring Chantrell’s much loved artwork. This is the “Awards Version” produced after the movie had won 7 Oscars. When George Lucas & the Studio Executives realised just how successful this movie was likely to become their marketing strategy had to be re-assessed. The original Jung & Hildebrand posters although iconic & artistic where not really that commercial in terms of characterisation. Tom Chantrell was drafted & in & produced this new look, all-action, bolder, brighter looking poster. Luke, Leia & Han Solo all bear an incredible likeness to their screen counterparts & the Star Wars merchandising phenomena was born. Easily the most recognisable of all the Star Wars posters it is this design that has become synonymous with the franchise and is extremely sought after with many collectors & fans. Folded (as issued) this beautiful unrestored original condition poster presents to excellent effect and represents a scarce and desirable piece of original Star Wars movie memorabilia from what has become one of the most collectable and popular modern movie franchises.
Trivia: George Lucas‘ decision to accept a lower salary on the movie in exchange for full merchandising rights was considered a fool’s gamble on his part. Although some movie-toy combinations had done moderate retail returns at the time, they had never been major money-earners because of the long gap between when a movie would go through its theatrical run and when any products based on it would be available. This movie, however, was such a phenomenon that it reached the holiday 1977 sales period in full swing, and changed the way how movies were merchandised forever.

An 1982 original first year of ‘dubbed’ release in Japan of “Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope”. In 1982, Japan premiered the first version of Star Wars to use Japanese voice-over actors rather than subtitles.

For the 1982 re-release of the George Lucas sci fi classic sequel “Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back” Lucasfilm issued this amazing one-sheet featuring the artwork of Tom Jung, the artist responsible for the original 1980 poster campaign. This ‘updated’ style features some of the best imagery from the series with fantastic renditions of Darth Vader, Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, Princess Leia, Lando Calrissian, Yoda (firmly established as such an important and popular character to the series and sparingly used in the original campaign) and the iconic Imperial Walkers, all offset against a matt black background with silver detailing.

A fans favourite this impressive item represents a fine addition for any collector of original movie posters or Star Wars fan memorabilia.
Trivia: In order to avoid sharing creative rights, George Lucas decided to avoid using a major studio to finance this movie. Instead, he bankrolled the $18 million production himself, using a combination of his profits from Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope (1977) and a bank loan. Although the move was risky, it paid off several times over. Lucas recovered his investment within three months of the movie’s release.
