One of the cinemas all time classic movies…Ridley Scott’s Oscar winning deep space horror “Alien”. Any paper for this film is extremely sought after with the alien ‘egg’ style, designed by creative arts agency Bemis Balkind the most recognisable. On halloween 2003 “Alien” was re-released in a remastered Director’s Cut format. Sensibly the Studio went with the original 1979 poster design and updated it by printing a small number of posters on heavy stock paper with a silver background and luminous green plastic panel (on reverse) offsetting a die-cut ‘bleeding’ edge to represent the Alien blood. The UK quad poster offered here is from this 2003 release and it displays and presents to excellent effect being originally rolled (as issued). There is no fading with deep blacks/greens & stand out silver colour tone…Hugely collectable, a desirable piece of original film movie memorabilia from a truly influential movie that defined the face of modern sci-fi horror.
Trivia: Dan O’Bannon‘s original draft title was “Star Beast”, but he was never happy with this. It was only after re-reading his script that he noted how many times the word “alien” appeared, and realized that it was a perfect title. It works as a noun and an adjective, and it had never been used before.

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”.

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. The advertising campaign was one the most extensive ever commissioned by the BBC and the poster that accompanied the extremely limited (one night only) cinema release was truly exceptional. It really is stunning and perfectly suited to the landscape format of the UK quad film poster. Originally rolled this incredibly rare example displays almost perfectly. One of the best looking and most collectable film posters of recent years from a TV series that has become a global favourite. Never commercially available by the BBC these posters are unbelievably scarce…“That’s a time fissure! A tear in the fabric of reality! Anything could happen!”

“H.G. Wells’ Astounding Adventure in Dynamation!”
Nautilus Art Prints wanted to pay tribute to H. G. Wells, so, we asked the talented French duo Stan & Vince to create a poster for a H. G. Wells title of their choice and they came up with “The First Men in the Moon”. Who better than Science Fiction comic book artists to tackle a science fiction novel and much loved Ray Harryhausen movie. Their rendition is truly beautiful and their sense of detail, composition, texture and use of colour is just wonderful. Visually influenced by the 1964 film adaptation in their version, the men use spacesuits, which wasn’t the case in Wells’ original novel. Signed and hand-numbered (219/300) by the artists this is an amazing nine ink screenprint by l’Atelier Vertical, Brussels, Belgium that presents to superb effect and represents an outstanding modern art interpretation of a science fiction classic.
Trivia: It was Nigel Kneale’s idea to frame the Wells story within a modern-day flashback following a moon landing in the 1960s. (The actual moon landing had not happened when the film was made; it occurred in 1969). Ray Harryhausen credited Kneale’s idea with giving the film an extra kick which everyone felt it needed to hook a modern audience.

“A battle fought in the stars, now… comes to Earth.”
A beautiful, Dolph Lungren autographed limited edition art print (hand-numbered #14/40) by artist Chris Barnes (also known as Brutal Posters) showing highly detailed depictions of the assortment of characters from Gary Goddard’s fantasy adventure “Masters of the Universe” (1987). The close-up image of Skeletor’s face in the top left corner is particularly striking, finished in soft shades of purple, which contrasts against the rest of the design. This alternative movie print from 2020 has been autographed by He-Man himself – Dolph Lungren, who also added his character name and the annotation – “I Have the Power.” The poster was signed in the USA at Galaxycon, Richmond on 24th-26th March and is accompanied by a full letter of authenticity. A fantastic item of hugely collectable pop-culture memorabilia.
Trivia: Many viewers of the film commented on actress Meg Foster‘s eerily effective contact lenses which gave her character Evil-Lyn a sinister and unearthly air. Actually she wore no contact lenses. Her eyes naturally have blue/grey irises and tiny pupils, giving her a striking appearance. She has often been cast in sci-fi/fantasy roles because of them and jokes that she appeals to casting directors as she brings her own special effect with her for free.
