Sergio Leone’s “The Dollars Trilogy” is lauded (rightly so) as the greatest spaghetti westerns ever made with any paper from the films extremely sought after which makes this incredibly scarce 2014 Italian film festival release for the second in the series – “For a Few Dollars More” a real find. Not only super rare it arguably boasts a clever and stylish poster design featuring a colourful pop art style design by acclaimed Italian artist Michelangelo Papuzza. Presented rolled (as issued) this example displays to excellent effect. An extremely limited release with a very small print run these posters are a truly collectable ‘modern’ piece of Eastwood/spaghetti western movie memorabilia.
Trivia: The Man with No Name (Clint Eastwood) calls himself Monco in this movie. “Manco” is Spanish for “lame of one hand”, “one handed”, or “one armed”, which is pretty appropriate considering his habit of fighting, drinking, et cetera with his left hand only. His right hand always remains on his gun underneath his trademark poncho.

A 1977 original year of release “Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope” Style C UK Quad featuring Chantrell’s much loved artwork. This is the “Awards Version” produced after the movie had won 7 Oscars. When George Lucas & the Studio Executives realised just how successful this movie was likely to become their marketing strategy had to be re-assessed. The original Jung & Hildebrand posters although iconic & artistic where not really that commercial in terms of characterisation. Tom Chantrell was drafted & in & produced this new look, all-action, bolder, brighter looking poster. Luke, Leia & Han Solo all bear an incredible likeness to their screen counterparts & the Star Wars merchandising phenomena was born. Easily the most recognisable of all the Star Wars posters it is this design that has become synonymous with the franchise and is extremely sought after with many collectors & fans. Folded (as issued) this beautiful unrestored original condition poster presents to excellent effect and represents a scarce and desirable piece of original Star Wars movie memorabilia from what has become one of the most collectable and popular modern movie franchises.
Trivia: George Lucas‘ decision to accept a lower salary on the movie in exchange for full merchandising rights was considered a fool’s gamble on his part. Although some movie-toy combinations had done moderate retail returns at the time, they had never been major money-earners because of the long gap between when a movie would go through its theatrical run and when any products based on it would be available. This movie, however, was such a phenomenon that it reached the holiday 1977 sales period in full swing, and changed the way how movies were merchandised forever.

An 1982 original first year of ‘dubbed’ release in Japan of “Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope”. In 1982, Japan premiered the first version of Star Wars to use Japanese voice-over actors rather than subtitles.

Featuring country unique Japanese artwork this exceptional investment grade example is truly one of my favourite posters from the franchise.

George Lucas mentioned in an interview that he saw a “Jidai Geki” program on television while in Japan a year or so before the movie was made, and he liked the word.
