  The Shining

  £425.00

  “A masterpiece of modern horror”

  A beautiful, US one-sheet (Studio style) from first year of release, 1980 for Stanley Kubrick’s masterpiece of modern horror  “The Shining”. Designed by one of the greatest poster artist’s ever – Saul Bass. His imagery has become as iconic as the movie itself with the use of just a yellow and black colour palette and a simple image, incorporated into the title logo. Totally original and unrestored, this example is presented in  high grade excellent folded (as issued) condition that displays superbly. A genuinely scarce and hard to find example of  horror film cinema memorabilia for one of the most important and influential horror films ever made. “All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy…”

  Trivia #1: According to Shelley Duvall, the famous “Here’s Johnny !” scene took three days to film and the use of sixty doors.

  Trivia #2: For the “Here’s Johnny” scene in which Jack breaks down the bathroom door, the props department built a door that could be easily broken. However, Jack Nicholson had worked as a volunteer fire marshal and tore it apart far too easily. The props department were then forced to build a stronger door.
