  • The Hustler Movie Poster

    The Hustler

    £995.00

    “They called him “Fast Eddie”… He was a winner… He was a loser… He was a hustler.”

    Rarely is a reissue poster more highly treasured than the original release, but this is – “The Hustler” one-sheet is one such title. When this movie was first released, the studio seemed to want to hide that it was about “pool hustling”, and it was sold as being a romance, and there was little to no mention (or images) of pool on any of the first release 1961 posters. But when the movie was quickly re-released three years later in 1964, it had become an Academy Award winning classic, and learning from their mistakes, the new marketing campaign featured a striking stylised design – a pool cue with images of the actors within billiard balls set against a green baize background. An absolute must-have example with an iconic design and use of bold colours which literally do ‘pop’ out from the paper of this stunning original country of origin American poster. Originally folded (as issued) the example offered here has been professionally conservation linen backed to a very high standard and appears rolled. It represents a hugely collectable and desirable example of cinema movie memorabilia for one of the defining sports based movies ever made. A truly classic movie and poster.

    Trivia: All the pool shots in the movie are performed by the actors themselves (Paul Newman and Jackie Gleason) except one: the massé shot (cue ball sends two object balls into the same pocket), performed by Willie Mosconi.

  • The Jungle Book Video Movie Poster

    The Jungle Book

    £125.00

    “Meet Mowgli, the man cub. Baloo thinks he’ll make a darn good bear. Shere Khan thinks he’ll make a darn good meal”

    Walt Disney’s animated take on the “Mowgli Stories” of Rudyard Kipling “The Jungle Book”. Re-released many times after its 1967 premiere but it is the artwork from the posters produced since that are probably the best, and that’s certainly true of this 1993 video poster. Offered here is an original British one-sheet poster from 1993 – this was the first time this Disney classic was made available on a video release and to celebrate a totally new design was created. A magnificent, visual masterpiece of a poster as all the key characters make the perfect transfer from screen to paper. Beautiful design and artwork, bright bold colours that because of the high gloss finish, absolutely pop from the paper. Stunning animated action imagery featuring Mowgli, Baloo, Bagheera, King Louie, Shere Khan, Kaa make for an impressive poster on every level. Originally rolled (as issued) this unrestored film poster presents superbly and is a fine example of rare and collectable original Disney memorabilia for a much loved classic. Undoubtedly one the best looking posters produced for a movie that is an integral part of modern pop culture.

    Trivia: The Vultures were originally going to be voiced by The Beatles. The band’s manager, Brian Epstein, approached the Disney studios about having The Beatles appear in the film, and Disney had his animators create the Vultures specifically to be voiced by the band. But when Epstein took the idea to the Beatles, John Lennon vetoed the idea, and told Epstein to tell Disney he should hire Elvis Presley  instead. The look of The Vultures, with their mop-top haircuts and Liverpool voices, are a homage to The Beatles; one bird’s voice and features are clearly based on George Harrison‘s. That’s What Friends Are For was originally to be done as a rock and roll song. When the Beatles departed the project, the song was rewritten as a barbershop quartet, to make it timeless.

  • The-Shape-of-Water-Movie-Poster

    The Shape of Water

    £295.00

    “A Fairy Tale for Troubled Times”

    One of the best looking and finest ‘faux’ film poster’s ever produced…Award winning country of origin (US) movie poster for Guillermo Del Toro’s multi award winning (& nominated) dark sci-fi fantasy movie “The Shape of Water”. A very special promotional piece that was created as a unique ‘gift’ for a lucky few Fox Studio executives and industry insiders. It is a “faux” poster created to look like it is a historical poster created many years ago, showing ‘Anatomy of Homo Piscis’ (which is the creature from the movie), and it is set up like an old fashioned medical anatomy chart from a doctor’s office. The poster itself is printed on a canvas like parchment material that has been artificially “aged” to make it look old. It has wooden stretchers attached to the top and bottom of the poster with screws, and the bottom wood has a metal plate attached to the middle and within the plate ‘Dr. Guillermo del Toro’. There is a string attached to the top piece of wood to allow it to be hung. The poster rolls and comes in a specially made tube designed to hold it which has two stickers attached to it with the name of the movie, the year of “1962” (when the movie is set, the name of the director and “Classified”. Included with the poster is a 8 1/4″ x 11 3/4″ ‘official top secret memo’, printed on artificially aged paper which purports to be a ‘confidential memorandum’ about ‘a new discovery in London’ and describing the recent discovery of a vivisection of a fish-man which confirms that the government was not the ‘first to encounter such a species’. The ends of the tube have a printed space image with “Department of Defense Aerospace Research” in a circle around it. A very special collectible that is surely one of the most elaborate promotional poster packages I have ever seen…it just exudes quality and goes without saying is an incredibly scarce item and represents a truly outstanding piece of original film movie memorabilia.
