“Flesh to touch…Flesh to burn! Don’t keep the Wicker Man waiting !”
An outstanding example of a true British classic. This is an original 1973 Country of Origin British Uk quad film poster for Robin Hardy’s cult horror masterpiece “The Wicker Man”. One of the rarest and most sought after titles of the horror genre. We all know how it ends, making the symbolic imagery featured even more frightening. Striking duo-tone design with vibrant unfaded yellow background with deep black detailing. Printed on a ‘parchment’ type paper it represents a triumph of advertising with design and artwork perfectly suiting the subject matter…truly memorable and haunting. Totally original and unrestored this folded (as issued) poster displays and presents to excellent effect and is easily the best example I have ever offered for sale. A true investment grade piece that represents a scarce & sought item of authentic country of origin British horror movie memorabilia…“Come…It is time to keep your appointment with the Wicker Man.”
Trivia: Many years after making this movie, Edward Woodward re-visited some of the locations and claimed that he found the makeshift cross (that Howie makes out of some pieces of wood) still intact where it was left in the original scene.
