  Cinderella

  £75.00

  “Here to set a spark in your heart and a sparkle in your eye…the world’s best-loved story…told with Walt Disney’s wizardry!”

  A beautiful, colourful masterpiece of a poster for Walt Disney’s beloved animated fairytale classic “Cinderella”. Originally premiered in 1950 this superb Japanese B2 is from the 1982 re-release in Japan and focuses on the famous scene as Cinderella meets her true love, the Prince (although often referred to as Prince Charming, he is only ever called the Prince in the movie). As you would expect from a Disney offering artwork is of the highest quality and colours truly bright and vibrant. Marvellous border art of the supporting characters with the fairytale castle acting as a romantic backdrop with the dance floor transformed to a clock face about to strike midnight all offset by a night sky full of bright, shooting stars. Originally rolled (as issued) and unrestored this beautiful example presents very well and displays to excellent effect with colourful imagery exclusively created for this Japanese re-release. A fine example of rare and collectable original movie memorabilia for a much loved Disney classic.

  Trivia: The clothing of Cinderella in the film has attracted the attention of some fashion and art historians. The dress that the stepsister tears apart is thought to be inspired by the designs of Salvador Dalí and the magical gown is in the then contemporary style of Christian Dior.

  Gremlins

  £95.00

  “Cute. Clever. Mischievous. Intelligent. Dangerous.”

  An excellent example for one of the best comedy horror films ever made…“Gremlins”. Written by Chris Columbus (Harry Potter, The Goonies) and directed by Joe Dante it was a huge box office hit. Re-released by Warner Bros. in 2019, recognising the fact that the movie has now become a classic ‘Christmas’ movie with Gizmo dressed in a Santa hat set against a Snow White background with the landscape format of the British UK quad perfectly suited to his design. Originally rolled (as issued) this 2019 film poster presents and displays very well. Totally original and unrestored this hard to find modern re-release of an important 80’s movie is becoming more and more sought after and represents a great collectable piece of original film movie memorabilia.

  Trivia: Zach Galligan recounted in an interview that when the movie was made, there was no CGI, so all of the Gremlins were animatronics, each costing between $30,000-40,000 ($60,000-$90,500 adjusted for 2024 inflation). When everyone left the lot for the day, security would have everyone open the trunks of their cars to make sure they weren’t stolen.

  Gremlins

  £195.00

  “Don’t get him wet, keep him out of bright light, and never feed him after midnight.”

  An excellent rolled example for one of the best comedy horror films ever made…“Gremlins”. Written by Chris Columbus (Harry Potter, The Goonies) and directed by Joe Dante it was a huge box office hit. The global advertising poster campaign that accompanied the release was designed by Intralink Film Graphic with finished artwork by John Alvin. Alvin knows how to produce a blockbusting poster as his work on E.T. & Blade Runner demonstrate. His work for “Gremlins” doesn’t disappoint with a tantalising image of ‘Gizmo’ emerging from his box with a little hidden detail – if you look closely to the button fastening on the waistband of the jeans you will see the Ambling logo. The landscape format of the British UK quad is perfectly suited to Alvin’s artwork. Originally rolled (as issued) this 1984 film poster presents and displays superbly. Totally original and unrestored this hard to find example of an important 80’s poster is becoming more and more sought after and represents a great collectable piece of original film movie memorabilia.

  Trivia: This movie and Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (1984) are credited with inspiring the Motion Picture Association (MPA) to create the PG-13 rating. Many felt the movies were too violent for a PG rating, but not violent enough for an R.
