If you are a Jules Verne fan, this is simply one of the best pieces of art you can get. Directed Richard Fleischer and personally produced by Walt Disney. It was the first feature-length Disney film to be distributed by Buena Vista Distribution company and is also considered by many to be a precursor to the ‘Steampunk’ genre. Printed on Fedrigoni Stucco Old Mill Premium White paper using 10 coloured inks, this hand-numbered #57/110 screen print displays and presents superbly and is offered in excellent rolled (as issued) condition. Film and alternative movie posters by Thai artists are starting to gain a strong following with collectors, and with artists like Ise Ananphada, Banhan, Kwow and Tongdee Panumas, it’s easy to see why.

Exploitation of the James Bond phenomenon took many forms. Commercial tie-ins became popular, and films were often re-packaged as double bills for subsequent re-releases. Here, however, we have a British cinema UK quad promoting a “A Season of James Bond 007” films. Believed to date from 1972, participating cinemas would have used this poster to advertise special screenings of earlier Sean Connery Bond films, choosing from “Dr. No, From Russia With Love, Goldfinger, Thunderball, You Only Live Twice” and “Diamonds Are Forever”. A simple yet striking design, the “trademark” gun barrell opening credits imagery was considered so recognisable, that it would be sufficient to draw paying audiences. These don’t turn up that often especially in this excellent unrestored, originally folded (as issued) condition; the black background is rich and unfaded. It presents and displays superbly and represents a fine example of a scarce and extremely collectable James Bond vintage movie memorabilia.
Trivia: Maurice Binder designed the gun barrel opening at the last minute, by pointing a pinhole camera through a real gun barrel. The actor in the sequence is not Sir Sean Connery, but stuntman Bob Simmons. Connery didn’t film the sequence until Thunderball (1965).

“Stay on the road…Keep clear of the moors…Beware the moon, lads.”
A truly influential genre great…John Landis’ tongue in cheek werewolf horror romp “An American Werewolf in London”. This original 1981 UK quad film poster is stunning; great imagery as we see David before (very nude) and after (the best cinematic werewolf transformation ?) in incredible snarling wolf man mode. Very in your face and not at all as understated and restrained as the US one sheet version. With unique British design this is an extremely desirable, very rare poster from a “golden age” of physical movie special effects with Rick Baker winning the Oscar for Best Makeup. Presented in original, unrestored condition this folded (as issued) example displays very with only minor handling wear and represents a fantastic item of original horror movie memorabilia from a classic of the genre.…“I vote we go back to the Slaughtered Lamb”
Trivia: Rick Baker claimed to have been disappointed by the amount of time spent shooting the face changing shot for the transformation after having spent months working on the mechanism. John Landis only required one take lasting about seven seconds. Baker felt he had wasted his time until seeing the film with an audience that applauded during that one seven second shot.

“Stay on the road…Keep clear of the moors…Beware the moon, lads.”
John Landis’ “An American Werewolf in London” is one of the best werewolf movies ever made, full of dark humour and gory thrills. As most people know, this has one of the best human/werewolf transformation scenes in cinematic history. Unlike modern monster/horror movies of today, this film has no CGI or computer-aided special effects; what you see on the screen is a physical production made piece for which Rick Baker won the Oscar. This 2022 Artist Proof has not only been signed by the artist Matt Ferguson, but also the two main actors David Naughton, who played David Kessler and his best friend Jack, played by Griffin Dunne. Both actors have signed in red ink and added their character names and annotations – Naughton has written “Lovely stroll on the Moors!” and Dunne “I vote we go back to the Slaughtered Lamb”. It’s a proper horror poster as David (David Naughton) and Jack (Griffin Dunne) are seen walking across the fog bathed moors with the title finished with a spot varnish in a bright red dripping blood style. Presented in excellent condition with only minimal wear from the signings, this rolled (as issued) example is an impressive piece of horror poster artwork and is a hugely desirable alternative movie poster autographed by the actors depicted on the poster. “I vote we go back to the Slaughtered Lamb”
Griffin Dunne signed at Horrorcon (6-7th June) 2024 and David Naughton (photo proof) at Horrorhound Weekend (20-22nd March) 2026. A full letter of authenticity accompanies this item.

There is no doubting that this sweeping vista widescreen style perfectly suits the UK quad format.

Totally unrestored and rolled (as issued) this presents and displays to excellent effect with only minimal handling wear. A truly beautiful piece of original movie memorabilia from one of the finest film’s ever made…“Napalm, son. Nothing else in the world smells like that”
Trivia: Francis Ford Coppola believed that Marlon Brando was familiar with Joseph Conrad‘s “Heart of Darkness”, the novel on which the movie is based. When Brando arrived on-set, Coppola was horrified to find that Brando had never read “Heart of Darkness”, did not know his lines, and had become extremely overweight. Kurtz had always been written as tall and very thin. After some panic, Coppola decided to film the 5’10” Brando as if he was a massively built, 6’5″ brute to explain his size, and kept the camera away from his huge belly.

Trivia: John Milius explained how he had come up with the title “Apocalypse Now”. Apparently, this was derived from a very popular tattoo among the hippie community of a peace sign that said “Nirvana Now”. Milius, by adding just a couple of extra lines, edited the peace symbol to make it look like a circle with a B52 bomber in the middle, and changed the slogan to “Apocalypse Now”.

“I’ve seen horrors… horrors that you’ve seen. But you have no right to call me a murderer. You have a right to kill me. You have a right to do that… but you have no right to judge me. It’s impossible for words to describe what is necessary to those who do not know what horror means. Horror… Horror has a face… and you must make a friend of horror. Horror and moral terror are your friends. If they are not, then they are enemies to be feared.”

“You don’t talk to Colonel Kurtz…You listen to him.”
A personal favourite and quite simply a stunning alternative movie poster for Francis Ford Coppola’s multi award winning Vietnam war epic “Apocalypse Now” by Jock. Like something out of a widescreen images handbook, the grandiose and all-consuming art within this limited edition giclee art print for Apocalypse Now is as visually masterful as the film it depicts.

Originally rolled (as issued) with an amazing colour palette this outstanding example presents and displays to excellent effect and represents a beautiful alternative movie poster from one of the best artist’s currently working and the finest film’s ever made.

What is Giclee ?
Derived from the French term gicler – meaning ‘to squirt or spray’, the term describes a printing process whereby microscopic dots of pigment-based ink are sprayed onto archival-quality paper to ensure the fidelity of a limited edition print to an original artwork.
The richness, accuracy and depth of colour is thanks to the method’s potential to achieve a huge colour gamut (the spectrum of colours distinguishable by the human eye). Unlike the four tones used in lithography, giclées often use five: light cyan, cyan, light magenta, yellow and black.
Fantastic for reproductions which require maximum detail, giclées are most commonly found on watercolour paper or canvas, but can also be created on glass. Different types of paper will produce different effects. Matte paper works well behind glass due its lack of reflectivity, whilst the shine of a glossy finish can give an artwork a brighter appearance.
