  Monster From The Unknown World

  £235.00

  “Now we’ll have some entertainment. Take him to the pit!”

  A scarce and beautiful example from a series of films financed and produced in Italy during the 1960’s and affectionately known as ‘sword and sandal’ dramas. “Monster From The Unknown World” (Atlas in the Land of the Cyclops) tells the story of strongman Maciste (for Maciste you could insert Samson, Hercules, Atlas etc) as he battles mythical beasts in the search for ancient justice. Camp (not necessarily the intention) and certainly of the time these series of films have developed a cult following and are particularly collectable. This original UK quad film poster for Antonio Leonviola’s “Monster From The Unknown World” is from first year of release 1961 and really is a stunning example of fantasy horror artwork which is unique to the British release. Very rare to find in such fine original unrestored condition; the colours are bright, vibrant & unfaded & really pop from the paper. This scarce, folded (as issued) unrestored example displays and presents to excellent effect and represents an extremely desirable piece of 1960’s British cinema memorabilia.

  Saturday Night Fever

  £265.00

  “You make it with some of these chicks then they think you gotta dance with them”

  The influence of John Badham’s “Saturday Night Fever” cannot be understated. A cultural phenomenon that pretty much affected everyone at some point…music, dancing, fashion, attitudes & John Travolta; perfectly cast as the local walking cliche Tony Manero. And it’s the familiar title logo with the multi-lit coloured discotheque floor, John Travolta in the iconic white suite and co-star Karen Lynn Gorney that dominate this original, country of origin, 1977 UA one-sheet movie poster. Presented in the portrait format that is perfectly suited by the content. Originally tri-folded (as issued) with no central vertical foldline it displays and presents in excellent high grade condition and represents a fine item of important and influential cinema movie memorabilia…“Catch it !”

  Trivia: John Travolta used two suits in the climax of the film; he had to switch suits between takes because one would become heavily soaked with sweat and had to be dried while he was wearing the other one for subsequent takes.
