    “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.

    Goodfellas

    £295.00

    “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 gangster genre that will stand the test of time for years and years to come. Designed by Territory Studios advertising agency the movie poster imagery that accompanied the 2016 BFI release was equally as memorable. The imagery of the three stars (De Niro, Pesci & Liotta) accompanied by one of their key scenes makes for a stylish design with the red filter particularly effective. The BFI are renowned for producing excellent and ‘fresh’ poster designs for their limited run releases and this is considered one of the best. As with all BFI screenings they are very limited (sometimes only a single showing) with an incredibly small  print run. making the posters very hard to come by. This originally rolled (as issued) example displays & presents to fine 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.

    Jaws – Martha’s Vineyard Welcomes You

    £395.00

    “I just found out, that a girl got killed here last week, and you knew it! You knew there was a shark out there! You knew it was dangerous! But you let people go swimming anyway? You knew all those things! But still my boy is dead now. And there’s nothing you can do about it. My boy is dead. I wanted you to know that.”

    Probably the most important film of ‘modern’ cinema, launching a movie trend that is now commonly referred to as the ‘Summer Blockbuster’. It also happens to be one of the best and most memorable movie poster images ever ! So why reimagine it ?  Well, this is a perfect example of why. When it comes to amazing alternative movie posters, this limited edition art print by Laurent Durieux is a real eye-catcher and more along the lines of a travel poster as ‘Martha’s Vineyard Welcomes You’. There are a lot of alternative ‘Jaws’ posters on the market with this 2020 offering considered one of the best and most desirable with beautiful imagery. This wonderful design, featuring the second on screen victim – Alex Kitner is very clever as Alex is seen running on the Amity beach, the sea in the background and if you look closely the black Labrador Pippin about to run into the sea and meet his grisly fate. Look closer and you see an additional easter egg as one of the kites flying high above the beach resembles a black shark’s fin; a nod to Durieux’s earlier 2013 Jaws poster where the same fin is shown on a sunshade. This originally rolled, unfolded (as issued) example displays to exceptional effect. Durieux’s style is unmistakable with perfect, colours and composition. A truly outstanding and extremely rare art print that represents an impressive item of highly sought after modern movie memorabilia.

    Trivia: Several decades after the film’s release, Lee Fierro walked into a seafood restaurant and noticed an “Alex Kintner Sandwich” on the menu. She commented that she had played his mother many years ago. Jeffrey Voorhees, manager of the restaurant, ran out to meet her. He had played her son, and they hadn’t seen each other since the original movie shoot.
