    Captain America: The First Avenger

    £125.00

    “Whatever happens tomorrow you must promise me one thing. That you will stay who you are. Not a perfect soldier, but a good man.”

    Based upon photography by Michael Muller, BLT Communications LLC have created a truly dynamic ‘origin’ poster for the inaugural cinema outing for one of the corner stone characters of the Marvel Cinematic Universe “Captain America: The First Avenger”. This original ‘Cast Style’ 2011 UK quad film poster for Marvel’s all action super hero romp for the iconic ‘Captain’ and is certainly impressive and perfectly suited to the horizontal landscape style of the British quad. Originally rolled (as issued) this looks stunning and displays to excellent and memorable effect…One of the best looking posters to date for any of the Marvel Studios’ releases with colourful super-hero Steve Rogers/Captain America artwork that represents a fine piece of collectable modern cinema movie memorabilia. If movie posters follow the trend of the comics, then ‘key’ and first appearances will become equally significant…this features the first appearances of Captain America (Steve Rogers), Bucky Barnes (Winter Soldier) and Peggy (Agent) Carter in the Marvel cinematic Universe.

    Trivia: Originally cameo appearances were planned in the film for James “Logan” Howlett (Wolverine) and Erik Lehnsherr (Magneto), who were present during World War II (Logan was a soldier and Lehnsherr was in an internment camp). These cameos were scrapped due to rights issues.

    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.
