    Produced in 1991 for the 25th Anniversary of the TV series “Star Trek”, acclaimed artist Drew Struzan has produced one of the best images of William Shatner as the iconic character – Captain James T. Kirk. This example has been autographed by the actor William Shatner and annotated with his character name ‘James T. Kirk’. The autograph was obtained in 2023 (August 12th) at the Steel City Con, Monroeville, Pennsylvania and is accompanied by an official Certificate of Authenticity from the event.

  • Star Wars: The Mandalorian Poster

    Star Wars: The Mandalorian

    £295.00

    “This is the Way…”

    “The Way” by Rory Kurtz for Mondo was released to celebrate Season One of the hit TV series, and it is such a cool poster. Hand-Annotated ‘Archive 2’ as it has come directly from the personal archive of the artist Rory Kurtz and printed using eleven colour inks on Domtar Lynx Opaque 100# cover paper. Kurtz has this to say about the design “The Mandalorian is mysterious and iconic in aesthetic, and I felt the art should mirror that, with Mando holstering his blaster stoically amidst the smoke, ash, and fallen enemies of the recently finished battle”. This is a truly scarce alternative movie poster and highly sought after. With Mando and Grogu already firmly established as a fans favourite this impressive item represents a fine addition for any poster or art collector or Star Wars fan memorabilia.

    Trivia: The Child, well known by fans as ‘Baby Yoda,’ quickly became an internet sensation over the months after the premiere of this series, but toys weren’t available for the character because of that secrecy. Some toys, such as Funko Pop! figures and a plush from Mattel, weren’t available until early 2020. Jon Favreau has said the intention was to not spoil the series ahead of the premiere. “The way the cat usually gets out of the bag with that stuff is merchandising and toy catalogs and things like that,” he told Entertainment Tonight.

    “You talkin’ to me? You talkin’ to me? You talkin’ to me? Then who the hell else are you talking… you talking to me? Well I’m the only one here. Who the f**k do you think you’re talking to? Oh yeah? OK.”

    “Taxi Driver” has become a multi award winning pop culture cult phenomenon. Offered here is an absolutely stunning alternative movie poster by Krzysztof Domaradzki for Martin Scorsese’s classic. A clever design with full colour key character and scene imagery incorporated into the ‘TAXI’ of the title set against a bright yellow (the colour of a New York taxi-cab) background.

  • The Fog Movie Poster

    The Fog

    £225.00

    “Bolt Your Doors. Lock Your Windows. There’s something in The Fog !”

    After the huge success of “Halloween” John Carpenter quickly followed up with the equally memorable horror “The Fog” – a guilty pleasure film of mine as I love how well Carpenter develops the tension and tells the story with great cinematography, sound, and use of locations. Carpenter always a well regarded and popular film maker has enjoyed a huge renaissance in more recent years so it was no surprise that this title was one of four seminal movies by the director re-released by Studio Canal in 2018, remastered in 4K, with the others being “They Live”, “Escape From New York” and “Prince of Darkness”. All four movies had a strictly limited cinematic release and were accompanied a newly designed poster campaign (quads and one-sheets) by leading artist Matt Ferguson. Ferguson’s unique artistic style is evident throughout the four, each with its very own unique colour palette. A number of these full-size 30″ x 40″ UK quad styles were also released as a limited edition art print by Vice Press. Identical to the cinematic quad, in fact exactly the same – same paper, printer etc these were issued as timed releases each signed and hand-numbered by Matt Ferguson. Offered here is one of these signed art prints numbered #48 from a print run of only 224. Originally rolled (as issued) it presents in excellent condition. A cool, cult poster that represents very collectable & desirable original film memorabilia from one of the greatest and most influential director’s who is still actively working in the film industry.

    Trivia: Although this was essentially a low budget independent movie, John Carpenter chose to shoot the movie in anamorphic widescreen Panavision. This decision gave the movie a grander feel for the viewer so this didn’t seem like a low budget horror movie.

  • The Godfather Movie Poster

    The Godfather

    £225.00

    “If by chance an honest man like yourself should make enemies, then they would become my enemies. And then they would fear you.”

    Francis Ford Coppola’s multi Oscar winning masterpiece “The Godfather” is THE GREATEST FILM EVER MADE. Re-released in 2022 for its 5oth Anniversary, renowned artist Paul Shipper was commissioned to create a new poster for the event. Shipper’s artwork is superb with an incredible cast montage poster, with as you would expect Brando & Pacino taking centre stage. This British one-sheet displays to excellent effect and is an outstanding movie poster for a film, that is a phenomenon. An exquisite Mafia epic with outstanding performances, Coppola got everything right, creating a cinematic event with an immeasurable influence on everyday culture and life.

    Trivia: The smack that Vito gives Johnny Fontane was not in the script. Marlon Brando improvised the smack and Al Martinos confused reaction was real. According to James Caan, “Martino didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.”

    Jonathan Demme’s “The Silence of the Lambs” is one of the best horror thriller movies ever made; excellent Award winning performances, full of dark humour and gory thrills.

    “You see them on the street. You watch them on TV. You might even vote for one. You think they’re people just like you. You’re wrong. Dead wrong.”

    John Carpenter’s tale of alien occupation “They Live” is part horror, part sci-fi and part social satire, all viewed through dark sun-glasses of Nada played by ex-professional wrestler Roddy Piper. Considered one of Carpenter’s best it was one of four seminal movies by the director re-released by Studio Canal in 2018, remastered in 4K, with the others being “Escape From New York”, “Prince of Darkness” and “The Fog”.

    Trivia: Artist Shepard Fairey credits the film as a major source of inspiration, sharing a similar logo to his “OBEY” campaign. “They Live was…the basis for my use of the word ‘obey’,” Fairey said. “The movie has a very strong message about the power of commercialism and the way that people are manipulated by advertising.”

  • True Lies Alternative Movie Poster

    True Lies

    £225.00

    “Let’s face it, Harry. The ‘Vette gets ’em wet.”

    “True Lies” is rightly regarded as one of Arnold Schwarzenegger’s best movies. Reuniting with James Cameron and a quality supporting cast – including Charlton Heston, Tom Arnold, Bill Paxton and a standout performance from Jamie Lee Curtis; it really is a hugely enjoyable all-action espionage romp. That excitement and vibe is clearly represented here in this 2019 private commission screen print by Dave Merrell. Merrell beautifully portrays Schwarzenegger, Curtis and Dushku (plus a mean looking corvettte) with some incredible realistic likenesses against a backdrop of action packed imagery. This very limited release of only 45, has been hand-numbered #22 in pencil and is offered in rolled, unfolded (as issued) condition that displays and presents to excellent effect – the fifteen (15) coloured inks are vibrant creating an effect where the colours truly pop from the paper. A truly outstanding art print that represents a super fun item and great looking piece of modern cinematic memorabilia.

    TRIVIA: James Cameron personally called Charlton Heston to offer him the role of Trilby. When Heston asked why, Cameron responded: I needed someone who can intimidate Arnold Schwarzenegger.
