“She’s always naked under leather”
The Holy Grail of swinging sixties movie posters and featured in ‘Film Posters of the 60’s’ by Tony Nourmand and Graham Marsh…a 1968 UK quad film poster for Jack Cardiff’s cult psychedelic ‘road’ movie “Girl on a Motorcycle”. This is an exceptional Style B example where the content and layout is perfectly suited by the landscape format of a UK quad. The tagline “She’s always naked under leather” has never been more appropriate matched only by the sheer quality of this scarce country of origin example that really needs to be seen in the flesh to be fully appreciated. Offered here is one of the highest quality “Girl on a Motorcycle″ film poster to come to market for a very long time. As you would expect colours are deep and unfaded combined with sexually suggestive imagery that literally ‘pops’ from the paper. Totally original and unrestored in near flawless folded (as issued) condition…It is easily the best folded example of this poster I have ever offered for sale and represents a true investment grade piece of original highly collectable extremely scarce cinema movie memorabilia.
Trivia: Marianne Faithfull‘s gift motorcycle is a Harley Davidson Electra Glide; Alain Delon rides a 750cc Norton Atlas.
Note: Rarely seen for sale and as a comparison a respected US movie poster website has a restored, linen backed Style B example (that was originally folded) for $8,995.00. Our poster is near mint, totally original & unrestored for £4,495.00
