“Che Guevara…The Doctor Turned Fighter..The Fighter Turned Revolutionary..The Revolutionary Turned Martyr To Some, Murderer To Others”…A very rare original 1969 UK Quad movie poster for this Richard Fleischer directed biopic that attempts to separate the man from the myth. Simple, stark imagery on what is a very scarce and hard to find film poster.
…more detailA personal favourite; film and poster, fully deserving of the reverence it is held in. With artwork by Howard Terpning, this original 1962 French ‘Moyen‘ Affiche film poster for “Lawrence of Arabia” (Lawrence d’Arabie) is a truly stunning piece featuring deep, rich colours and beautiful painted artwork of a sabre wielding O’Toole (astride a camel) leading his Arab army into battle. Eye-catching and memorable as O’Toole’s presence dominates (rightly so) the poster. A real find in such high grade condition, benefitting from being conservation linen backed with only light restoration to the original foldlines. A magnificent example that displays and presents to excellent effect and represents a scarce & highly collectable item of authentic movie memorabilia that is without argument one of the greatest movies ever made.
Trivia: The scene where T.E. Lawrence is given his first Arab clothes wasn’t working as written, so Sir David Lean took Peter O’Toole aside and said, “There’s something missing, Peter. What do you think a young man would do alone in the desert if he’d just been given these beautiful robes?” He pointed out to the desert and O’Toole’s eyes followed. “There’s your theatre, Peter. Do what you like.” So, O’Toole improvised Lawrence looking at his reflection in his knife.

With artwork by Georges Kerfyser, this original 1962 French ‘Grande‘ Affiche film poster for “Lawrence of Arabia” (Lawrence d’Arabie) is a truly stunning piece featuring rich, deep red colour tones that allude to the heat of the desert and an incredible silhouette of O’Toole as Lawrence as an impressive backdrop. A real find in such high grade condition, benefitting from being conservation linen backed with only light restoration to the original foldlines. A magnificent example that looks even more spectacular in the larger format of the French ‘Grande’ that displays and presents to excellent effect and represents an extremely scarce & highly collectable item of authentic movie memorabilia for what is without argument one of the greatest movies ever made.
Trivia: On his first location scouting trip in Jordan, director Sir David Lean discovered the remains of the Turkish locomotives and railroad tracks T.E. Lawrence had destroyed during the Arab Revolution. After forty years in the sun, they hadn’t even rusted.
