  Green Street

  £150.00

  “Stand Your Ground And Fight. “

  2005 saw the release of the ‘British lad football culture’ movie “Green Street”. The name of the firm in the film, the Green Street Elite, refers to Green Street in the London Borough of Newham, where West Ham’s old home stadium, Upton Park was located. The UK quad used to market the movie is a classic character study with the two major stars – Elijah Wood and Charlie Hannam taking centre stage. The originally rolled (as issued) UK quad film poster offered here displays beautifully and is presented in excellent condition with minimal handling wear and represents an extremely desirable piece of original British movie memorabilia.

  Trivia: West Ham were approached by the film-makers who wanted to shoot scenes at their Upton Park ground. As they were under the impression that the film was celebrating the glorious game and its fanatical supporters, they agreed. Once they realized the film’s true take on the subject (after filming had taken place), they disassociated themselves from the project.

  Rise of the Footsoldier

  £225.00

  “It was the end of an era. But before the murders, the torture, the beatings and the ecstacy… before all of that, there was football. You see, football was where all the spite and the hatred first came from. On those terraces… well, it’s where it all began for me.”

  Love it or hate it “Rise of the Footsoldier” is a modern classic with a huge cult following. Filmed in 2007 and based on a true story of Essex gangsters – Carlton Leach, Tony Tucker and pat Tate it faithfully recreates the 1990s in all of its glory, portraying a violent crime genre that is still going strong and showing no sign of flagging with four sequels to date. There is so little paper available for this title, making this original UK quad such a great find – it is ultra rare and the first time we have ever offered one for sale. The eye-catching black and white imagery created by Mister S is certainly striking as the cast are featured on the barrel of a shotgun Originally rolled (as issued), the poster displays beautifully and is presented in excellent condition with minimal handling wear and represents an extremely desirable piece of original British cinematic memorabilia.

  Trivia: During the films opening scene in the morgue, the answering machine message left on Tony Tucker’s phone was the real life recording that Carlton left him the day after the shooting. This was confirmed by Carlton in an interview with James English.
