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'")

Artist: Barry E. Jackson
Important Added Info: Note that this poster does not have NSS information in the bottom border. Starting sometime in the late 1970s, both the National Screen Service and the movie studios would sometimes print posters for the same film. Both posters would have the same images and art but the studio-printed posters would lack the NSS identification information normally found at the bottom of posters printed by the National Screen Service. The poster offered here was printed by the studio, lacks NSS information and is 100% original

Condition: good to very good. There are pinholes in each corner (some torn from rough removal) and there is paper loss at upper left in the blank border. There is a small white circle in the sky at upper left that appears to be a printing defect. There is light wear and some creases along the foldlines and a tiny glue stain in the upper right blank border but otherwise the main image of the poster is in pretty nice condition.
