    £85.00

    “Mr Bond. I’m so glad I caught you. Your office called. They’re sending a helicopter to pick you up. Some sort of emergency…It usually is. Thank you”

    After the excesses of the previous movie “Moonraker” this is more of return to a realistic spy thriller in John Glen’s “For Your Eyes Only”.

Colours are bright, vibrant and unfaded. Hugely desirable and very collectable, it would be a worthy addition to any collection of James Bond movie memorabilia and is a truly impressive 007 poster.

    James Bond: The Living Daylights

    £295.00

    “The New James Bond…Living on the edge…It’s the only way he lives”

    1987 was the end of a historic movie tradition as Brian Bysouth produced the last fully drawn painted James Bond film poster (Fascinating Brian Bysouth interview with Eddie Shannon of Film on Paper) for Timothy Dalton’s 007 debut as “The most dangerous Bond…Ever” in “The Living Daylights”. The advance teaser poster preceding this was a mixture of photograph and artwork created by Brian, the advertising agency Feref, Jeffrey Bacon & David Generic and is distinctive for the see-through negligee. However it is not Bond babe Maryam d’Abo in the shot but American model Kathy Stangel in this famous pose & beautifully photographed by Jim McCrary. The original 1987 UK (country of origin) movie poster offered here is presented  in exceptional unrestored, rolled (as issued) unfolded condition with bright and unfaded colour tones and white areas that are truly bright. Hugely desirable and very collectable, it would be a worthy addition to any collection of James Bond movie memorabilia.

    Trivia: Kara Milovy (Maryam d’Abo) is the last “main” Bond girl to be blonde until Spectre (2015). All leading Bond girls in the other films since have been brunettes or redheads.

    James Bond: The Living Daylights

    £195.00

    “The New James Bond…Living on the edge…It’s the only way he lives”

    1987 was the end of a historic movie tradition as Brian Bysouth produced the last fully drawn painted James Bond film poster (Fascinating Brian Bysouth interview with Eddie Shannon of Film on Paper) for Timothy Dalton’s 007 debut as “The most dangerous Bond…Ever” in “The Living Daylights”. The first advance teaser poster preceding this was the work of photographer Keith Hamshere as he gave us our first look at Roger Moore’s replacement – Timothy Dalton. Dalton’s colder, grittier portrayal of Bond in “The Living Daylights” is considered by many fans of the franchise to be the closest and most faithful to the characterisation of Bond from the original novels by lan Fleming.The original 1987 UK (country of origin) movie poster offered here is presented  in exceptional unrestored, rolled (as issued) unfolded condition with bright and unfaded, crisp colour tones. Hugely desirable and very collectable, it would be a worthy addition to any collection of James Bond movie memorabilia.

    Trivia: The casting of Frederick Warder and Glyn Baker as 004 and 002 was intentional, due to their resemblance to George Lazenby and Sir Roger Moore, respectively. For the movie’s opening scene, the writers wanted to toy with the audience’s expectations of which of the 00 agents was Bond.

  • Jurassic Park Movie Poster

    Jurassic Park

    £475.00

    “An Adventure 65 Million Years In The Making” 

    The blood red background silhouetting the infamous T-rex skeleton makes for the most iconic and instantly recognisable logo in cinema history. It can only be Steven Spielberg’s 1993 blockbuster “Jurassic Park”Ground breaking and game changing are phrases banded around far to easily in this day of modern cinema but “Jurassic Park” truly deserves these accolades. A massive worldwide success on its release with merchandising and memorabilia hugely sought after with the logo style design being the most desirable. From first year of release 1993 this rolled (as issued) Advance ‘Summer 1993’ original, unrestored UK quad film poster displays and presents to excellent effect. The bright red logo and title which is printed , slightly embossed, using a spot varnish finish, truly pops against the matt black background. From an aesthetic point of view I have always preferred the landscape format of the quad, as feel it suits the design (and is much more impressive) than the portrait style of a one-sheet. A fine piece of original movie memorabilia that is hard to find in such high grade condition from the film that kickstarted the CGI phenomenon and made millions fall in love with a T-Rex.

    Trivia: The novel was published in 1990. However, pre-production of the film began in 1989, using only Michael Crichton‘s manuscript. It was widely believed that the book would be such a hit that it would make an outstanding movie. It turns out that assumption was correct

    “An Adventure 65 Million Years In The Making” 

    The blood red colouring of the infamous T-rex skeleton makes for one of the most iconic and instantly recognisable films in movie history.

  • KES Movie Poster

    KES

    £250.00

    Directed by the acclaimed filmmaker Ken Loach, “KES” is based on the 1968 novel “A Kestrel for a Knave”, written by Barry Hines. It is part of the kitchen sink realism movement that developed in Britain in the late 50s and early 60s. This movement focussed on those that were disillusioned with modern society, and on the domestic lives of working-class Britain. When re-released by the BFI in 1999 for the 30th Anniversary, graphic design agency The Farm was commissioned to create a new poster, and it’s fair to say it what he has produced surpasses the original. Exclusive to this British release it’s a stunning imagery sums up the feeling of isolation. The borrowed shorts typify the “done unto” theme for the young lad while attempting to add a touch of welcome understated humour to the poster – made more poignant by the fact that for David Bradley’s role in life humour was usually at his own expense or not at all. An incredibly scarce example of modern poster design, perfectly suited to the landscape format of the UK quad. Originally rolled (as issued) this superb example presents extremely well and represents a beautiful example of cinematic movie memorabilia from a film that remains a powerful study of school, family, strife and dreams ever made.

    Trivia: KES (1969) has a 100% rating based on 32 critic reviews on Rotten Tomatoes.

  • KES Movie Poster

    KES

    £125.00

    Directed by the acclaimed filmmaker Ken Loach, “KES” is based on the 1968 novel “A Kestrel for a Knave”, written by Barry Hines. It is part of the kitchen sink realism movement that developed in Britain in the late 50s and early 60s. This movement focused on those that were disillusioned with modern society, and on the domestic lives of working-class Britain. When re-released in the 1970s the front of house lobby cards – full colour in the 1969 release were re-issued with a light blue sepia tone, which in my opinion is much better looking , giving a particularly striking effect that also makes David Dai Bradley’s signature (signed in black sharpie pen) really stand out. Bradley has signed with a very nice signature and has also added his character name – Billy. An outstanding card from the set as it features Billy (Dai Bradley) with his kestrel, KES. Originally flat and unfolded (as issued) this superb example presents extremely well and represents a beautiful example of cinematic movie memorabilia from a film that remains a powerful study of school, family, strife and dreams ever made.

    This item was personally signed by David Dai Bradley when he was a guest at the London Film Fair on Sunday 22nd September 2024.

    Trivia: KES (1969) has a 100% rating based on 32 critic reviews on Rotten Tomatoes.

  • Lair of the White Worm Movie Poster

    Lair of the White Worm

    £295.00

    “Now, if you’re sitting comfortably, I shall tell you why you must not be afraid to die. To die so that the god may live is a privilege, Kevin, and if you know anything at all about history, you will know that human sacrifice is as old as Dionin himself, whose every death is a rebirth into a god ever mightier !”

    A terrifying eye-catching film poster for Ken Russell’s “Lair of the White Worm”. This original 1988 UK quad film poster is stunning; truly memorable horror imagery as we see a close up of snarling fanged snake-creature about to attack. Very in your face and not at all as understated and restrained (much like the legendary Director).

In excellent original, unrestored condition this folded (as issued) example displays to superb effect and represents an impressive item of original horror movie memorabilia from a cult British horror classic.
