“He’s been chased, thrown through a window, and arrested. Eddie Murphy is a Detroit cop on vacation in Beverly Hills”
Original country of origin 1984 US One-Sheet Movie Poster for the Eddie Murphy blockbuster “Beverly Hills Cop”. Great imagery of Murphy lounging on a bright red Mercedes SL convertible (the top car of the early 80’s) parked on Rodeo Drive. Originally rolled (as issued) this fine example looks and displays to excellent effect with minimal handling wear with artwork perfectly suited to the portrait style format. Without a doubt this film sums up the 80’s perfectly with a ‘feel-good’ vibe that makes for a very collectable piece movie memorabilia that looks very very cool !
Trivia: During his tirade at the Beverly Palms Hotel, Axel pretends to be writing an article called “Michael Jackson: Sitting on Top of the World” for “Rolling Stone” magazine. In real life, “Playboy” ran an article called “Eddie Murphy: Sitting on Top of the World.”

Based upon Rob Bottin’s iconic ‘robo’ suit design Paul Mann produced the perfect alternative movie poster to complement his graphics. A truly striking image for Paul Verhoeven’s ultra violent sci-fi masterpiece “Robocop” that is perfectly suited to the portrait format of this edition. Robocop is offset against a colourful background of supporting characters and action imagery, that are made to stand out when placed in front of the black background. It gives a depth that gives an almost 3D effect to the colour imagery. Printed by Mad Duck in 2022 this limited edition art print is hand-numbered #47 from a print run of 200. This excellent example presents and displays near perfectly and represents a fantastic piece of collectable movie memorabilia from one of the defining movies of the 80’s. The ‘original’ & BEST, “Robocop” is fondly remembered and spawned a popular TV show, two sequels and was recently remade as a ‘big budget’ CGI sci-fi actioner…“I’d buy that for a dollar !”
Trivia: The repeated line “I’d buy that for a dollar!” comes from Cyril M. Kornbluth‘s short story “The Marching Morons”, which presents a similarly cynical view of an over-commercialized future that’s desensitized to violence and war. A radio game show in that short story uses the line “I’d buy that for a quarter.” as its signature phrase.

ALL the signatures were obtained at The Hollywood Show Los Angeles, 16th October 2024
Trivia: Realizing that the film was running behind schedule and over budget, director Paul Verhoeven and producer Jon Davison purposely did not film one crucial scene: Officer Murphy’s death. When production wrapped, they went back to Los Angeles and grimly informed the execs that Murphy’s death had not been filmed. After watching the footage they did film, the execs were so astonished by the aesthetics and performances they gave the filmmakers more money and they filmed the scene in a redecorated warehouse in Los Angeles.

Arnold Schwarzenegger’s and Paul Verhoeven’s 1990 sci-fi ultra-violent actioner “Total Recall” produced one of the most distinctive film posters of Schwarzenegger’s impressive career. Designed by the Seiniger Advertising agency it features a bright blue close up of Arnold’s face, offset against an outer space filled background and the mysterious ‘Pyramids of Mars’. A clever adaption of the Philip K. Dick short story “We Can Remember It For You Wholesale” and one of the cinematic high points for both Schwarzenegger and Verhoeven with physical special effects that have stood the test of time well. It’s a tough poster to find in high grade condition as any blemishes show up easily (especially on folded examples) because of the dark colours used. That is not the case here as this originally rolled (as issued) example displays to excellent effect and represents a truly outstanding and scarce item of highly sought after movie memorabilia.
Trivia: When Ronald Shusett and Dan O’Bannon first started working on the screenplay for this movie back in the 1970s, they realized that the movie would probably be too expensive and difficult to make (by the standards of special effects and budget at the time). They delayed working on the story and instead worked on an idea O’Bannon had about a space monster terrorizing a spaceship crew. This became Alien (1979).
