“Barbarella, an astronaut from the 41st century, sets out to find and stop the evil scientist Durand Durand, whose Positronic Ray threatens to bring evil back into the galaxy.”
In arguably the most famous role of her career, Jane Fonda stars as “Barbarella” in Roger Vadim’s, campy, sci-fi fantasy. Based on the hugely popular French comic strip by Jean-Claude Forest the film is considered one of the 1960s quintessential cult movies. Its stylish and colourful comic art layout scenes are truly unique for the period, and represent a nice homage to its comic book roots. These scenes are captured to great effect in a series of eight British front of house lobby cards with Fonda featured in all, including the iconic and super sexy ray-gun in hand pose. In addition to the set offered, also included is the hard to find synopsis card and the brochure. The brochure is particularly striking being finished in black and white with a silver background and pink lettering. Originally flat-unfolded (as issued) this beautiful complete set of all eight cards and extras display superbly, vibrant, unfaded colours and an incredible selection of key scenes. An impressive set of highly collectable cinematic memorabilia for a much admired sci-fi classic that rarely turns up as complete as here.
Trivia: Jane Fonda is filmed at times, especially during the opening spacesuit striptease sequence, in the famous French director’s “Vadim Tease” directorial style.

“Who seduces an angel? Who strips in space? Who conveys love by hand? Who gives up the pill? Who takes sex to outer space? Who’s the girl of the 21st century? Who nearly dies of pleasure?”
In arguably the most famous role of her career, Jane Fonda stars as “Barbarella” in Roger Vadim’s, campy, sci-fi fantasy. Based on the hugely popular French comic strip by Jean-Claude Forest the film is considered one of the 1960s quintessential cult movies. And it’s the titular Barbarella, who is featured in close up clutching a ray gun, in a very pop art looking alternative movie poster design by Tim Jordan (Blunt Graffix). Created in 2013, exclusively for the Weapon of Choice II convention with a very limited print run of only twenty (20) – this is hand-numbered #2 and also signed by the artist. Originally rolled (as issued) this beautiful example displays to excellent effect with vibrant, unfaded colours that pop from the paper and a stylish design. It would make for a fantastic addition to any collection or as a one-off display piece that represents a highly collectable piece of cinematic and artistic memorabilia for a much admired cult, sci-fi classic.
Trivia: Barbarella was the first science fiction hero from comics to be adapted into a feature film, as opposed to a serial. Flash Gordon and Buck Rogers, her male predecessors, had only appeared in serials.

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”.

“They told Jack Burton to go to hell…and that’s exactly where he’s going !”
John Carpenter’s wildly entertaining cult classic “Big Trouble in Little China” receives an extraordinary alternative treatment in this highly detailed limited-edition poster by acclaimed Thai artist Ise Ananphada. Her elaborate composition places Kurt Russell’s swaggering hero Jack Burton at its centre, surrounded by an astonishing collection of characters, creatures and memorable imagery drawn from the film.
Lo Pan looms above the design alongside the fearsome Three Storms, while Gracie Law, Wang Chi, Egg Shen and other familiar figures appear among Chinatown architecture, dragons, weapons, flames and supernatural symbols. Even Jack Burton’s beloved Pork-Chop Express and truck have been incorporated into the artwork. The result perfectly captures the film’s distinctive combination of martial arts, fantasy, action, comedy and ancient Chinese mythology.
The exceptional printing is every bit as impressive as Ananphada’s illustration. Produced using 18 coloured inks, the poster is further embellished with a glitter layer and blacklight-reactive neon inks. These specialist finishes add remarkable depth, texture and vibrancy, with selected elements taking on a dramatic new appearance when viewed under ultraviolet light.
This example is hand-numbered #10 from a strictly limited edition of only 265. It has been stored flat and unfolded and remains in superb original condition. With tremendous visual impact and outstanding production quality, this is a highly desirable display piece for collectors of John Carpenter, Kurt Russell, cult cinema and contemporary alternative movie-poster art.
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.

“Man Has Made His Match… Now It’s His Problem.”
Ridley Scott’s visionary science-fiction masterpiece returned to cinemas in 1992 with “Blade Runner: The Director’s Cut”, promoted by this impressive 30 × 40-inch UK Quad poster. John Alvin’s celebrated artwork places Harrison Ford’s Rick Deckard and Sean Young’s Rachael above the neon-lit towers, airborne vehicles and rain-soaked cityscape of futuristic Los Angeles.
Loosely adapted from Philip K. Dick’s influential 1968 novel “Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?”, the film follows a specialist police officer tasked with hunting genetically engineered replicants. Alvin’s atmospheric composition perfectly reflects its fusion of futuristic spectacle, film noir and philosophical mystery. This Director’s Cut removed the original narration and presented Scott’s darker, more enigmatic vision to a new generation of cinemagoers.
Presented rolled, (as issued) this highly collectable British poster remains in excellent unrestored condition. With tremendous visual impact, it makes a superb display piece for collectors of Blade Runner, Ridley Scott, Harrison Ford and classic science-fiction cinema
Trivia: The film suffered at the box office, because it opened at the same time as E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial (1982). The movie The Thing (1982) suffered a similar fate due to the same reason. Although there was praise for the visual style, word of mouth about the film’s slow pace and bleak themes quickly caused a decrease in attendance ratings. Both movies would later reach cult status and receive critical praise.

“Being the adventures of a young man whose principal interests are rape, ultra-violence and Beethoven.”
Without doubt “A Clockwork Orange” was the most controversial film of its day, and that’s saying something when you consider it was released alongside “The Exorcist” and “Last Tango in Paris”. Malcolm McDowell’s signature role, and it’s his character Alex DeLarge who features on all eight cards in this complete set of US lobby cards from first year of release, 1972 as he is highlighted in key scenes and in stunning close-up. A rare find as a complete set, with most broken up and the cards sold individually. Totally original and unrestored, the cards are presented in high grade, flat, unfolded (as issued) condition that display and present to excellent effect. A genuinely scarce and hard to find example of cinema memorabilia. The film still remains Kubrick’s most controversial work; quite a feat when one considers the range of topics the filmmaker explored across his remarkable career and represent a superb addition to any collection.
Trivia: The film was unavailable for public viewing in the UK from 1973 until 2000, the year after Stanley Kubrick‘s death. British video stores were so inundated with requests for the movie that some took to putting up signs that read: ‘No, we do not have A Clockwork Orange (1971).’

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.

Trivia: During one take, when Condorman falls into the River Seine, Michael Crawford nearly drowned after the strength of the current was miscalculated. He was dragged five to ten feet under the water before two lifeguards pulled him out just in time. Crawford was willing to do the stunt again but director Charles Jarrott refused to allow it, and put a trained stuntman in his place.
