New York City is a walled maximum security prison. Breaking out is impossible. Breaking in is insane."; "Written by John Carpenter & Nick Castle"; about a future where Manhattan is a prison island and Kurt Russell has to rescue the President whose plane crashed on the island) starring Kurt Russell ("as 'Snake Plissken'"), Lee Van Cleef ("as the 'Police Commissioner'"), Ernest Borgnine ("as 'Cabbie'"), Donald Pleasence ("as 'The President'"), Isaac Hayes ("as 'The Duke of New York'"), Harry Dean Stanton ("as 'Brain'"), and Adrienne Barbeau ("as 'Maggie'") NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we have only auctioned two examples of this poster before! Also note that this is a rare Japanese "B1" poster that measures 28 1/2" x 40 1/2" [72 x 103 cm]! "B1" posters are FAR more rare than "B2" posters (which measure approximately 20" x 28 1/2"), and because they are larger (similar in size to a U.S. one-sheet), they are more impressive when displayed on a wall! Also note that this poster was tri-folded only (which means there is no vertical machine fold) but because it would be more expensive to send flat, it will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: good to very good. The poster was tri-folded only and has general fold and border wear. There are creases scattered in some areas (see our image). It is otherwise in pretty nice condition and after a pretty simple linenbacking the poster will look great! Learn More about condition grades
