“Diamonds Are Forever” Japanese STB/Tatekan film poster, presented in totally original unrestored condition. An absolutely beautiful 1971 original movie poster for Sean Connery’s final (official) outing as Ian Fleming’s super-spy James Bond 007 in Guy Hamilton’s “Diamonds Are Forever”. Robert McGinnis was commissioned to provide the initial imagery and (in my opinion) created one of the finest Bond posters ever with the format of the Japanese tatekan my favourite way to display McGinnis’ artwork – the central figures are highlighted and the oversized 007 logo never lets you forget you are going to see a James Bond movie. McGinnis’ detailed and stylish illustrations perfectly capture the whole ‘action, adventure, glamour’ Bond theme; pretty much the ‘perfect’ 007 poster as Bond travels the globe from Amsterdam to the casinos and neon lights of Las Vegas. Incredibly hard to source in this high grade condition, whether it’s the coloured inks or the type of paper used, the colours are incredible rich with real depth and saturation. This originally unfolded, rolled (as issued) example presents and displays to excellent effect and represents a fine example of a scarce and extremely collectable James Bond vintage movie poster.
Trivia: Sir Sean Connery made the most of his time on-location in Las Vegas: “I didn’t get any sleep at all. We shot every night, I caught all the shows and played golf all day. On the weekend I collapsed, boy, did I collapse. Like a skull with legs.” He also played the slot machines, and once delayed a scene because he was collecting his winnings.

“It’s not a biography. It’s a senses attack”
Undoubtedly, one of the great music biography films; David Bowie as presented by Brett Morgen in “Moonage Daydream”. Technically it’s not a biography but a loud, vivid, exploration and celebration of Bowie’s life, art, and music. Made up of clips cleverly edited together and enhanced to make this a cinematic experience. This original 2022 UK quad designed by the creative agency Bangers & Mash and featuring an iconic Bowie image is a truly great find due to the very limited cinematic release in art-house and small independent cinemas. Presented in near perfect unrestored, rolled (as issued) condition – truly stunning, and a perfect complement to the ground breaking musician. Incredibly scarce with a very low print run this really is an exciting item of rock / movie collectable from one of the most influential icons of modern pop culture…David Bowie.
Trivia: The documentary includes a lot of David Bowie‘s unpublished personal material, including photos, home videos and some interviews on TV. Director Brett Morgen talked in person with Bowie’s widow, top model Iman, for asking permission to use the material as tribute to Bowie. Although in a first moment she was reluctant to this idea, she was convinced by Morgen’s previous works Cobain: Montage of Heck (2015) and Jane (2017) about singer Kurt Cobain and scientist Jane Goodall, where Morgen used personal material from each other to create artistic collages as tribute to them, instead to use in the way to make a classic biographic documentary.

The Czech film poster (as offered here) from 2021 (first year of release in the Czech Republic) for “My Neighbor Totoro” features the translated localised title “Můj soused Totoro” prominently displayed at the top, in large, bold, soft-pink capital letters. The imagery mirrors the iconic, classic Japanese bus stop scene and features Satsuki standing in the pouring rain with her red umbrella next to the massive, stoic Totoro. Beneath the main title, the poster features the Czech tagline: “Nejroztomilejší hrdina všech dob poprvé v českých kinech”, which translates to “The cutest hero of all time, in Czech cinemas for the first time”. Presented in excellent condition, colours are deep and unfaded with some truly memorable imagery. This fine example represents a fantastic piece of very collectable and desirable original movie memorabilia that will appeal to Anime and Studio Ghibli fans or those just looking for something very special to hang on their wall.
Trivia: A Totoro plushie appears as one of the stuffed animals in Toy Story 3 (2010).

“Luke, you can destroy the Emperor. He has foreseen this. It is your destiny. Join me, and together we can rule the galaxy as father and son.”
A Style A. educational Boy’s Photo News poster for George Lucas sci fi classic sequel, “Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back“. These officially endorsed special posters (just a little bit larger than a Japanese B2) were produced in 1980 for display in Japanese schools and libraries, introducing younger audiences to the Star Wars universe, with its innovative and memorable characters and its groundbreaking special effects and they are very apparent here with a combination of artwork – the cloud city of Bespin, AT-ATs (All Terrain Armoured Transports) and photographic screen shots of Yoda (training Luke), an attacking TIE fighter and the Millennium Falcon landing at the Cloud City. These posters are rare and only ever available in Japan, making them one of the harder Star Wars posters to track down and offer. Offered conservation linen backed, with no restoration this originally rolled (as issued) example presents beautifully and makes a fine addition for any collector of movie posters or Star Wars memorabilia…“They’ve encased him in Carbonite. He should be quite well protected. If he survived the freezing process, that is.”
Trivia: Boba Fett is never referred to by name in this movie. He is always referred to as “the bounty hunter” by other characters. However, a deleted scene included in the Blu-ray set shows Leia tending to Luke’s wounds and says “a bounty hunter named Boba Fett” has taken Han Solo.

A Style B. educational Boy’s Photo News poster for George Lucas sci fi classic sequel, “Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back“. These officially endorsed special posters (just a little bit larger than a Japanese B2) were produced in 1980 for display in Japanese schools and libraries, introducing younger audiences to the Star Wars universe, with its innovative and memorable characters and its groundbreaking special effects and they are very apparent here with a series of photographic screen shots from the film including a Star Destroyer attacking the Millennium Falcon, Luke, Han and a Tauntaun on Hoth C-3PO and R2-D2 aboard the Falcon and a menacingly illuminated storm trooper. These posters are rare and only ever available in Japan, making them one of the harder Star Wars posters to track down and offer. Offered conservation linen backed, with no restoration this originally rolled (as issued) example presents beautifully and makes a fine addition for any collector of movie posters or Star Wars memorabilia…“If you only knew the power of the Dark Side. Obi-Wan never told you what happened to your father.”
Trivia:The entire Millennium Falcon was built life size for the first and only time for this instalment (only half of the spacecraft was constructed for Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope (1977), and just part of it was used for the deleted sandstorm scene in Star Wars: Episode VI – Return of the Jedi (1983)). It measured sixty-five feet (19.8 meters) in diameter and sixteen feet (4.8 meters) in height, with a mandible giving it an overall length of eighty feet (24.3 meters). The Falcon’s weight was twenty-three tons (23 metric tons).

“From a barbed-wire camp to a barbed-wire country, they made…THE GREAT ESCAPE !”
A very rare find, these two-panel Japanese posters just don’t turn up and are incredibly scarce. One of the biggest films of all times certainly deserves a striking poster and this original 1970 STB/Tatekan movie poster for John Sturges’ wartime adventure “The Great Escape” certainly impresses. Frank McCarthy’s ‘countdown’ artwork looks superb featuring Bartlett “Big X” (Richard Attenbrough), Hendley-“The Scrounger” (James Garner) and of course heading the group Hilts-“Cooler King” (Steve McQueen) and has been updated to include a photo montage of the cast and more importantly – McQueen attempting his motorbike jump escape. Although the most memorable scene from the film it doesn’t feature on any of the original 1963 paper and only on a handful or later release posters. The format makes for a truly stunning piece that presents very well and represents a superb example of very rare collectable film memorabilia from one of the greatest film’s ever made and featuring a character and final scene that has become synonymous with screen legend Steve McQueen and is regarded as a much loved classic and one of McQueen’s signature roles.
Trivia: During the climactic motorcycle chase, director John Sturges allowed Steve McQueen to ride (in disguise) as one of the pursuing German soldiers, so that in the final sequence, through the magic of editing, he’s actually chasing himself. McQueen played the German motorcyclist who hits the wire.

“What do you know about make-up? You’re Just a Girl.”
Undoubtedly, one of the great concert footage films; David Bowie in “Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders From Mars” . The historic farewell performance of the king of glam rock; directed by D.A. Pennebaker and featuring the award winning British musician David Bowie under his ‘Ziggy’ persona with his group The Spiders from Mars – Mick Ronson, Trevor Bolder and Mick Woodmansey – performing at the Hammersmith Odeon in London on 3rd July 1973. This original Japanese B1 (equivalent to a one-sheet) is a truly great find with imagery unique to this very limited re-release (only happened in Japan) in 2022. Presented in near perfect unrestored, rolled (as issued) condition the imagery features a fantastic, rarely seen close up of Bowie in Ziggy persona – stunning, really doing justice to the iconic musician. Incredibly scarce with a very low print run this really is an exciting item of rock / movie collectible from one of the most influential icons of modern pop culture…David Bowie.
