An advance ‘Summer 2019’ British UK quad film poster for the Marvel Studios release “Spider-Man: Far From Home”. The distinctive design by BOND sees a close up of Spider-Man’s iconic mask adorned with travel stamps indicating the European cities Spidey and his pals are set to visit, including Berlin, Prague, Venice and the setting of the movie’s action packed finale London; it’s a particularly clever and memorable design. This original 2019 poster is offered in excellent rolled (as issued) condition with the landscape format of the quad the perfect way to showcase the artwork. Very cool and very collectable this exceptional looking piece represents a fantastic item of ‘modern’ super-hero movie memorabilia.

Trivia: Mysterio’s “fishbowl” helmet is inspired by illustrations from classic Spider-Man comic books. When creating the look of his suit, the costume designers looked to Iron Man, Vision, Doctor Strange, and Thor.

Film Description

Spider-Man: Far From Home Movie Poster

“Our friendly neighborhood Super Hero decides to join his best friends Ned, MJ, and the rest of the gang on a European vacation. However, Peter’s plan to leave super heroics behind for a few weeks are quickly scrapped when he begrudgingly agrees to help Nick Fury uncover the mystery of several elemental creature attacks, creating havoc across the continent.”

With Spider-Man: Far From Home we’re entering a whole new Marvel cinematic era. Iron Man is gone, Captain America is gone, and the Avengers as we know them are no more. So, what does Marvel do moving forward ? – Spider-Man is their immediate answer.

Spider-Man vacations in Europe where the enemies are creatures called Elementals and they take the form of various elements (e.g. water, fire, air, etc.). That’s one of the reasons I thought this movie would be weak because Spider-Man already had to fight a similar looking thing in Spider-Man 3 with the Sandman. I was thinking, ‘Who cares to see him fight water or fire ? That’s a horrible premise.’ Thankfully, the movie was more intelligent than that.

Quentin Beck aka Mysterio (Jake Gyllenhaal) ends up not being a superhero but a super-villain. I liked the twist. Even though it required a big production team and some next level tech I liked the idea of the Elementals being fictitious as opposed to real monsters. Furthermore, I wasn’t too keen on a Mysterio as a superhero. He was too all-of-a-sudden and too generic.

I also liked the Peter Parker-Mary Jane love story. It was more believable. They didn’t overly romanticize it. It had a realistic awkward teenage feel to it and more of an innocence as well. I mean it helps that they both look like teenagers as well as opposed to the very adult Tobey Maguire and Kirsten Dunst. Their upside-down kiss in the rain was akin to The Notebook or some other romantic film. In this movie it was more muted, kind of playful, and definitely awkward (as you would expect Peter Parker to be).

Most Popular Poster Types

US Posters

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
14 x 22″ printed on heavy stock paper with the top 4-6 inches usually left blank for the local cinema owner to fill in the cinema and the date it was due to play. Largely discontinued during the 1970’s.

HALF SHEET
22 x 28″ printed on heavy stock paper. The image displayed is normally a smaller version of the main poster, although some do have different artworks and sometimes come in two versions.

INSERT
14 x 36″ printed on heavy stock paper. Inserts usually have the same artwork as a one sheet. Popular with collectors since they are smaller and easier to frame. Normally come tri folded or rolled.

STYLE Y/FORTY BY SIXTY
40 x 60″ printed on heavy stock paper. Rare since they were primarily used for major motion pictures only. Designed to be used outside the theatre, on an easel, normally at a drive-in movie theatre.

ONE-SHEET
27 x 41″ printed on paper. This is the most common size of poster, intended to be displayed in a glass “marquee” case. It is the most sought after size by collectors. 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.

THREE-SHEET
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.

BRITISH Posters

BRITISH QUAD
30 x 40″ Most common poster size used in the UK. British Quads are horizontal and may have different artwork to the US one sheet. Like a US one sheet they normally come in two versions. Like a US one sheet they are usually supplied single-sided or more commonly now as a double sided poster.

BRITISH ONE-SHEET
27 X 40″, printed on paper. Very rarely used size.

ITALIAN Posters

ITALIAN LOCANDINA

2-FOGLIO (DUE)

FRENCH
