    £175.00

    “At long last Redmond Barry became a gentleman…and that was his tragedy.”

    An exceptional looking movie poster for Stanley Kubrick’s 1975 historical drama “Barry Lyndon”.

Originally folded (as issued) this displays superbly retaining a crispness with deep unfaded colour tones. This excellent unrestored example presents near perfectly and represents an exceptional piece of collectable original film memorabilia. Perhaps over-looked by Kubrick’s other masterpieces he made many great films – and this one is most definitely one of them!

    Trivia: Stanley Kubricks first movie to feature an auteur opening credit of “A film by Stanley Kubrick”. It also contains his longest on-screen credit in the end titles: “Written for the screen, produced, and directed by Stanley Kubrick.”

    Battlestar Galactica

    £75.00

    “The last Battlestar Galactica leads a ragtag fugitive fleet on a lonely quest…for a shining planet known as Earth.”

    An all-action sci-fi vista of a film poster for Glen A. Larson’s ‘epic’ “Battlestar Galactica”. Receiving a full cinematic release it was an edited together version of three TV shows released in the USA largely to cash in, on the still very popular ‘Star Wars’ phenomena. With some colourful, dynamic  sci-fi artwork by Robert Tanenbaum (a homage to Tom Chantrell’s famous art for ‘Star Wars’ perhaps ?) this original 1978 country of origin US one-sheet movie poster is presented in original unrestored, folded (as issued) condition. It displays to impactful effect with light age and handling wear; colours are deep and unfaded with some truly rip roaring laser blasting, robot, space ship adventure imagery. A cool item that represents a fantastic piece of very collectable and desirable original movie memorabilia for a much loved and hugely popular film and TV franchise.

    Trivia: John Dykstra, who worked on Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope (1977) used much of the technology developed for ILM in this movie, including his motion control camera, the so-called “Dykstraflex”.

  • Big Trouble in Little China Movie Poster

    Big Trouble in Little China

    £1,895.00

    “They told Jack Burton to go to hell…and that’s exactly where he’s going !”

    A very COOL poster and a fantastic example of the supremely talented British film poster artist Brian Bysouth’s work.  (Brilliant interview with Eddie Shannon Film on Paper). This original “Big Trouble in Little China” movie poster has it all; incredible graphics, great detail & amazing colours. It is very rare and one of the scarcest John Carpenter movie posters from the 80’s to find. The original UK quad movie poster offered here is from first year of release, 1986 and displays to excellent effect. Originally rolled (as issued) it is presented in incredible unrestored condition and is the best example of this poster I have ever offered for sale. In true investment grade condition, this genuinely rare cult classic from the Carpenter archives represents an extremely desirable and collectable piece of movie memorabilia.

    Trivia: John Carpenter and Kurt Russell explain on the audio commentary that the test screening was so overwhelmingly positive, that both of them expected it to be a big hit. However, 20th Century Fox put little into promoting the movie, and it ended up being a box-office bomb. In addition, the film was released in the midst of the hype for Aliens (1986), which was released sixteen days afterwards. However, it went on to be a huge cult hit through home video. Carpenter and Russell explained that the reason the studio did little to promote the film, was because they simply didn’t know how to promote it.

    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.

    £225.00

    “Whatever you’ve got planned, forget it! I’m the Doctor. I’m 904 years old. I’m from the planet Gallifrey in the constellation of Kasterborous. I’m the Oncoming Storm, the Bringer of Darkness”

    It’s not often that a TV show enters the Guinness Book of Records but on November 23 2013 that is exactly what happened as the 50th anniversary of “Dr Who: The Day of the Doctor” was broadcast simultaneously to 94 countries and cinemas around the world.

One of the best looking and most collectable film posters of recent years from a TV series that has become a global favourite.

    “Six soldiers. Full moon. No chance.”

    This original 2002 UK quad film poster for Neil Marshall’s “Dog Soldiers”  is impressive; clever imagery by creative arts agency Empire Design as we see a soldier standing alone in the forest – the shadow he casts from a full moon behind him is that of a wolf.

A female character is disembowelled and talks about super-glue being invented in the Vietnam war in order to stick wounded soldiers back together but then says she saw it in a movie about werewolves.

  • Dracula A.D.1972 Movie Poster

    Dracula A.D.1972

    £175.00

    The Time: Now. The Place: Kings Road, Chelsea. The Killer: Count Dracula !

    Some truly horrific photo montage artwork for “Dracula A.D.1972” makes this Japanese B2 film poster from 1972 (would you believe it ?) one of my personal favourite Hammer posters. It’s more than you can shake stake at with Caroline Munro and Stephanie Beacham certainly putting the glamour into Hammer ! And if that doesn’t appeal totally stealing the action is one of the coolest British cars ever made; the beautiful Triumph Stag and dominating the imagery, a particularly eerie shot of Christopher Lee as the titular Count. In very good condition with only minor handling wear this fantastic folded (as issued) example presents superbly. A lovely example of Hammer Horror memorabilia for one of my personal favourite Dracula films.

    Trivia: “Alucard”, Johnny’s last name, is “Dracula” spelled backward.

  • Easy Rider Movie Poster

    Easy Rider

    £525.00

    “A man went looking for America. And couldn’t find it anywhere…”

    Striking example of perhaps one of the most memorable and recognisable film posters to come out of the 60’s…Dennis Hopper’s cult hugely influential motorbike road movie “Easy Rider”. Fantastic design and use of bold colours (deep black, bright yellow and red livery in this case) which literally do ‘pop’ out from from the paper of this stunning original British film poster. Beautifully rendered imagery of lead character Wyatt (Peter Fonda). Originally folded (as issued) this original unrestored UK quad film poster is from 1969 (first year of release in Britain) and is a very rare find in this high grade condition and represents a very collectable and desirable example of original film memorabilia for one of the defining cultural movies of the psychedelic 60’s appealing to film and motorcycle collectors…The ultimate ‘road’ movie !

    Trivia: Dennis Hopper and Peter Fonda did not write a full script for the movie, and made most of it up as they went along. They didn’t hire a crew, but instead picked up hippies at communes across the country, and used friends and passers-by to hold the cameras, and were drunk and stoned most of the time.
