  Dracula’s Daughter

  £395.00

  “Clawing Monster From A Lost Age strikes from the Amazon’s forbidden depths !”

  This elusive one sheet’s greatness lies in its impressive design with only the neon green and yellow eyes of the title character (Countess Marya Zaleska) “Dracula’s Daughter” projecting through the ominously onyx black background, as the title “drips” in the same garish colours just below. The Daughter of Dracula, is played with true mystique by Gloria Holden in a spectacular sequel to Universal’s sensational “Dracula” (1931). Original 1936 paper from this early horror classic is extremely scarce, with only one known example of the one-sheet ever being publicly offered to the market. With an original one-sheet costing tens of thousands of pounds this S2 Art Group recreation is a fine, high quality and genuinely rare alternative, produced to an extremely high standard and printed on to heavy duty fine art paper. S2 bought 100-year-old lithograph presses, completely refurbished them, and created stone slabs that allowed them to make nearly perfect replicas of this classic movie poster. They were printed in exactly the same way the posters were originally printed, re-creating them down to the finest detail within the art, and even including the tiny writing from the bottom of the poster. Printed in 2000 in very limited numbers (hand written #91), each has the name of the person who prepared the plates and the date of the printing in the bottom border of the art. It is a super high quality stone litho print that measures the same as a regular one-sheet 27″ x 41″ (69 x 104 cm). This really is a beautiful print and represents an incredible looking item of movie memorabilia.

  Trivia: Gloria Holden repeats Bela Lugosi’s famous line, “I never drink…wine” during Lady Hammond’s party.

  Strange Colour of Your Body’s Tears

  £165.00

  “Returning home from a business trip to discover his wife missing, a man delves deeper and deeper into a surreal kaleidoscope of half-baked leads, seduction, deceit, and murder. Does anyone in the building know something ?”

  An impressive art nouveau style movie poster that’s a fitting tribute to the giallo ‘horror’ classics. Designed by artist and illustrator Gilles Vranckx and commissioned by Anonymes Films especially for the theatrical release of “The Strange Colour of Your Body’s Tears”  this award winning one-sheet design is rightly regarded as one of the best looking film posters of 2013. It presents near perfectly being originally rolled (as issued) and is genuinely scarce with very limited showings, primarily in a small number of ‘art-house’ & ‘specialist’ cinemas combined with a low key advertising campaign. A beautiful piece of stunning ‘modern’ film memorabilia that is hugely collectible encompassing not just movie fans but also the horror art and mainstream art marketplace.

  Watch the Trailer for “The Strange Colour of Your Body’s Tears” here.

  Trivia: The film features fragments of Ennio Morricone‘s Erotico Mistico from the film Maddalena (1971) and Peppino De Luca‘s Rito a Los Angeles from the film Dorian Gray (1970). Both songs bear strong resemblance to different parts Iron Butterfly‘s 17-minute classic In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida, from 1968.
