“A family comedy without the family.”
“Home Alone” was a massive blockbuster hit when released in 1990 launching the career of child star – Macaulay Culkin and it has gone on to attain cult status, as one of the greatest and best-loved Christmas movies and is one of the highest grossing box office comedy’s of all time. This original UK quad is from the 1991 re-release and features Culkin’s character Kevin MacCallister in ‘Holy Cow’ posse and his adversaries the ‘Wet Bandits’ – Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern. Rolled (as issued) this example presents to excellent effect with deep blue unfaded background and crisp colours on the character images. It represents a fine example of rare, collectable cinematic movie memorabilia.
Trivia: Joe Pesci was used to adding profanity to most of his scripts, and kept forgetting that he was filming a family movie during his character’s on-screen outbursts, so director Chris Columbus advised him to say “fridge” instead of the “f” word. A lot of Pesci’s unintelligible pained mutterings were his way to avoid cursing.

Scarce, original UK quad movie poster for Kenneth Johnson’s 1977 Marvel super hero actioner “The Incredible Hulk”. One of the biggest and most successful TV shows of the 1970s started life in the UK as a two hour cinematic release, as audiences saw mild-mannered scientist – Bruce Banner (Bill Bixby) transform into the Incredible Hulk (Lou Ferrigno). Both feature on the British quad offered here complemented by bright green (naturally) title imagery taken directly from the comic book. Having a limited release, this is a rare poster. Presented in excellent folded (as issued) unrestored high grade condition. Highly collectable, it represents a fabulous opportunity to own very early Marvel movie memorabilia that will appeal to both the comic book fan and a poster collector.
Trivia: Dr. Banner was named Bruce in the comics, but is renamed David for this telefilm. The tombstone at the end of the episode reveals his full name to be David Bruce Banner. This is actually partially consistent with the comics, in which his full name is Robert Bruce Banner.

“He has no skills and can only find menial, low-paying jobs. He decides to become a gigolo to lonely rich women.”
Supreme example of Tom Chantrell’s stunning artwork; an extremely rare original 1978 UK Quad film poster for the David Bowie drama “Just a Gigolo”. This film was perfect for Bowie (you could genuinely believe he was a 1920s pseudo aristocrat) as the extravagantly named Paul Ambrosius von Przygodski. Tom Chantrell’s artwork (unique to the British release) places Bowie centre stage, cleverly portrayed in black and white whilst the supporting cast, including Kim Novak and Marlene Dietrich (her last movie appearance) are featured in full colour. With only minimal handling wear, this originally rolled (as issued), unrestored example displays to beautiful effect. The deep black background contrasted with vibrant colours makes for a truly impressive piece. One of Bowie’s most stylish movie posters and a fantastic piece of highly collectable original movie and music memorabilia and a perfect showcase for Chantrell’s incredible talent at catching an actors likeness.
Trivia: The last on-screen appearance by Marlene Dietrich. German press reports claimed she was paid $250,000 for two days’ work.

“49% Motherf**ker, 51% Son of a Bitch.”
Heavy metal rock gods don’t come any more legendary than Motorhead front man ‘Lemmy’ (Lemmy Kilmister). A true British institution and all-round ‘top-bloke’ as featured here in the 2010 documentary “Lemmy” by Greg Olliver and Wes Orshoski. With testimonials by rock’s leading ‘Hall of Famers” (many of which are featured on the UK quad design) this is a remarkable cinematic biography. Designed by OTMentertain the imagery on the British quad places Lemmy centre stage offset against an ‘Ace of Spades’ logo. The advertising campaign for the movie was very low key and the UK film posters that accompanied the extremely limited cinema release are truly scarce. Originally rolled (as issued) this incredibly rare example displays to excellent effect and represents a fantastic collectable item of music, film and cultural memorabilia.
Trivia: The film crew had to clean Lemmy’s kitchen to shoot the shot of Lemmy making breakfast cause Lemmy didn’t want to do it or to shoot in a dirty kitchen.

Trivia: The script was written in only two weeks and the film was shot in three weeks.

A beautiful and incredibly rare country of origin UK quad film poster and one of Hammer’s best for Roy Ward Baker’s 1967 supernatural alien invasion thriller “Quatermass and the Pit”.

That we owe our human condition here to the intervention of insects”
Trivia: When Dr. Quatermass is picking at the eyeball of the dead Martian creature in his laboratory, the pupils of the compound eye are a rectangular slot shape rather then round like a human eye. This is reminiscent of a goat’s eye, a creature that, for centuries, has been associated with witchcraft and sorcery.

“After rescuing Han Solo from Jabba the Hutt, the Rebel Alliance attempts to destroy the second Death Star while Luke struggles to help Darth Vader back from the dark side.”
This is the first printing of the original release British quad – the earlier version omitted several characters and these were added later. With an updated design by Feref Associates based upon Josh Kirby’s original artwork for the 1983 British release of “Return of the Jedi”. This revised version was produced to be more in keeping with the US campaign by Kazu Sano, it’s darker in feel and now features the Ewoks. Extremely desirable and scarce in the high grade condition offered here, it really is superb and most likely unused. Totally original and unrestored folded (as issued) condition. A fantastic example of original Star Wars cinematic movie memorabilia from what was the defining chapter of the Original Trilogy.
Trivia: It took six people to work the full-sized animatronic of Jabba the Hutt. The puppet fit three men inside -two to operate the arms, head and tongue and another to move the tail. A man lying below the puppet pulled strings to move Jabba’s mouth and make his sides heave. And two radio operators controlled the slimy goon’s eyes, including pupil dilation, direction and wideness of eyelids. A final crew member was responsible for rubbing gel on the puppet to give Jabba his slimy look.

“The Independent said…There is something comical but uplifting in the baffled ecstasy he feels in still being alive”
Quite honestly some of the finest poster artwork I have seen on a ‘modern’ poster. In these days of digital design it’s a pleasure to see and handle such a beautiful item. Designed by Jonny Halifax for Julien Temple’s film ‘The Ecstasy Of Wilko Johnson’, and winner of the SXSW 2015 Excellence in Poster Design Special Jury Recognition Award this is a special and very rare film poster. After the film’s cinematic premiere held in aid of the Teenage Cancer Trust in London at the Picturehouse on Shaftesbury Avenue on 17th July 2015 it was only screened in a very limited number of select ‘art-house’ cinemas making any paper from the release exceptionally scarce and sought after with the artist himself releasing limited edition prints of the artwork which immediately sold out and have become collectors items in their own right. The poster offered here is a genuine UK quad film poster from the initial 2015 release, not a copy. Printed on heavy stock paper with a four colour silk screen print finish this originally rolled example displays superbly…An incredibly rare and collectable piece of music/film memorabilia.
