An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27 1/4" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) Ghetto Freaks (a re-cut version of 1970's "Love Commune" [also known as "Sign of Aquarius"]), the 1972 Robert J. Emery marijuana marihuana pot weed drug musical hippie sexploitation melodrama ("Every white society chick wanted to join his soul family to get in on the integrated action...!"; "[gonna get your stuff]") starring Allen Wakefield, Cathy Holen, Samuel Barkay, Brenda Stokes, and Virginia Morris. Note that a clever producer bought the rights to this 1970 movie, re-cut it, and turned it into "Ghetto Freaks" and gave it a new release in 1972 with fake stars, director, and no reference to its earlier incarnation. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this poster was printed in two versions, one that is orange and black, and one that is all purple. We don't know if one style predates the other. This auction is for the "orange" style. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Note that this one-sheet measures 27 1/4" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]. Note that this one-sheet is one of the 28 folded one-sheets in this Part I of eMoviePoster.com's December Major Auction that were not consigned to us by Dominique Besson. It was consigned to us by another collector, but that in no way diminishes this poster, and it fits well with the Besson collection. What is the Dominique Besson collection? He started collecting movie posters in 1981, and became a dealer in French and European posters in 1994, and has remained as a top dealer ever since! But in addition, 30 years ago, Dominique began collecting U.S. one-sheets, first those with Saul Bass art, and then adding Alfred Hitchcock posters, then Humphrey Bogart, and he finally ended up collecting in an amazing total of 47 different categories, purchasing the posters from all over the world! Now the time has come to sell this wonderful collection, and Dominique has chosen eMoviePoster.com to do so, through our auctions! This is not all of the Dominique Besson collection we are auctioning. In addition, there are approximately 200 more folded one-sheets that will be in Part IV of this special auction (ones from the 1970s to present), and there are approximately 100 unfolded one-sheets that will be in Part III (including many great ones). This is a very rare opportunity to purchase folded one-sheets (all of which have had no professional restoration) from one of the greatest one-sheet collections assembled! Note that this one-sheet is being auctioned in the category that Dominique Besson labeled "blaxploitation". Condition: good to very good. There are creases scattered down the center of the poster. There are creases, smudges, and a few stains around the edges, with a few creases scattered throughout the image. In spite of the above defects, the poster could be displayed and enjoyed as it is, or one could choose to have the above defects corrected through linenbacking. Either way, the new owner will have a great wacky poster to display on their wall! Learn More about condition grades
