  • Superman-III-Movie-Poster

    Superman III

    £50.00

    “Synthetic kryptonite laced with tobacco tar splits Superman in two: good Clark Kent and bad Man of Steel.”

    The third entry in the Salkind’s ‘Superman’ canon sees Richard Lester’s more comedic action touch as Christopher Reeve again dons the red cape in the 1983 release “Superman III”. Humour is largely provided by an excellent over the top performance (in reality just playing himself) by comic genius Richard Pryor as computer genius Gus Gorman. And it is Reeve and Pryor who feature prominently on this British UK quad film poster. The colourful all-action design sees Superman in full flight smashing his way to defeat the ‘villain’ Gus’ ‘super-computer’ Gorman From first year of release (1983) this rare folded (as issued) example displays and presents to excellent effect with only very minimal handling wear. Beautiful artwork and vivid unfaded colours this is an exceptional unrestored  example of very collectable original movie memorabilia.

    Trivia: According to Ilya Salkind, an earlier version of the script included the comic book villains Brainiac and Mr. Mxyzptlk teaming up, and Superman meeting his cousin, Supergirl, which would lead to the potential Supergirl spin-off.

  • The Royal Tenenbaums Movie Poster

    The Royal Tenenbaums

    £160.00

    “Family Isn’t A Word… It’s A Sentence.”

    Wes Anderson’s 2001 award winning film which takes a look at the functionality or dysfuntionality of the ‘American Family’. Hailed by critics and lauded by his audience Wes Anderson’s disgustingly star-studded “The Royal Tenenbaums” was a huge success on its release despite only having a very limited run and showing in a small number of (largely ‘art-house’ or ‘independent’) cinemas resulting in any paper from the movie being in very short supply. Originally rolled (as issued) this country of origin, US one-sheet looks and displays to excellent effect and represents an extremely scarce, modern original collectable movie memorabilia from a truly talented writer/director.

    Trivia: The spots on the Dalmatian mice were created using a Sharpie pen.
