Officially licensed by Hammer and released by Under the Floorboards in 2021, this incredible limited edition alternative movie poster for the classic “Dracula” features the distinctive imagery of leading British horror artist – Graham Humphreys. The photograph really doesn’t do justice to this print, the colour tones are beautiful and it appears newly painted and is one of the best printed posters I have come across. The two leads; Peter Cushing (Van Helsing) & Christopher Lee (Count Dracula) are prominent with Michael Gough, the Count’s vampiric bride – Valerie Gaunt and Castle Dracula acting as an atmospheric backdrop. A very rare find as only 135 were printed with this example being hand-numbered #35. An official Hammer Certificate of Authenticity accompanies the print which has been signed by the artist Graham Humphreys and the Great-Grandnephew of Bram Stoker – Dacre Stoker , who is a leading horror writer in his own right. Presented in excellent condition this high quality modern art print displays superbly and represents an extremely desirable and collectable item of British horror movie memorabilia.
Trivia: When Jonathan Harker (John Van Eyssen) meets Dracula (Sir Christopher Lee), there appears to be a statue of “Pazuzu”, the demon from The Exorcist (1973).

“After Jonathan Harker attacks Dracula at his castle (apparently somewhere in Germany), the vampire travels to a nearby city, where he preys on the family of Harker’s fiancée. The only one who may be able to protect them is Dr. van Helsing, Harker’s friend and fellow-student of vampires, who is determined to destroy Dracula, whatever the cost.”
Terence Fisher ‘s DRACULA (Horror of Dracula in the US; 1958) is the best vampire film of all time. No other picture combines the right amounts of horror, humour, action, and eroticism. Britain’s Hammer Films is legendary for their horror films–this is the best of them all. Although quite different from the book in many ways, I feel this picture captures the spirit of Bram Stoker‘s work better than the more literal adaptations. Everything works here–Fisher’s tight, crisp pacing, James Bernard‘s throbbing, full-blooded score, and especially the acting. Christopher Lee inherits the role of Dracula from Bela Lugosi and makes it his own–he still holds the record for most film performances as the Count. Peter Cushing is the definitive Dr. Van Helsing–by turns tough and tender, his interpretation far outshines those of far better known actors–Anthony Hopkins and Laurence Olivier played the part later, but their performances were totally inferior to Cushing’s. Lugosi came first, and later films spent more money; however, the best combination of all elements is in DRACULA. It is required viewing for all vampire fans.
Trivia: The cape worn by Sir Christopher Lee was discovered in 2007 in a London costume shop during its annual inventory-taking. It had been missing for thirty years and is believed to be worth around $50,000. Lee was contacted to verify its authenticity.

LOBBY CARD
11 x 14″ printed on heavy stock paper. Used as display in theatre lobbies. Originally made in sets of eight. Some sets have a title card, which contains credits and artwork, essentially a mini-poster. The remaining seven cards are coloured photographic credits and poster artwork showing different scenes from the movie.
WINDOW CARD

Since the 1980’s most posters are sent to the theatre rolled and maybe slightly smaller measuring 27″ by 40″ and with the advent of backlit light boxes a growing number of modern movie posters are available double-sided and the more traditional single-sided.

41 x 81″ printed on paper. These were printed on two or three separate sheets designed to overlap, few survive. Used for larger advertising spaces, normally posted on walls, perfect for huge movie theatres the drive-in, where people could see them from a distance. From the 1970’s on, three-sheets were sometimes printed in one piece and issued as “international” versions to be used abroad.
