  • Rogue Trader

    £125.00

    “Money isn’t for greedy people”…In the late 90’s the name Nick Leeson was a household name, infamous for causing the collapse of the long standing financial institution Barings Bank. It is said fact is always stranger than fiction so it was only a matter of time until they decided to make a film of it . In 1999 based on director James Dearden’s screenplay the film “Rogue Trader” was released and it is from this first release that this poster comes. Offered here is a very rare UK quad film poster that was hurriedly recalled by the producers as it depicted a £20.00 note; a design they hadn’t gained permission to use. This scarce, folded (as issued) final release version displays and presents extremely well with great colours and eye catching design. Very, very few of these posters remain in circulation and are very collectable providing a great snap shot of the time…”Fuck the rules, Tony. It’s barrow boys like Nick who are turning the City of London around. You can’t run a modern financial centre with a bunch of Hooray Henries.”
