The planet called Dune"; "The motion picture event for 1984"; "Based on the novel by Frank Herbert"; "Music by Toto") starring Kyle MacLachlan (as Paul Atreides), Brad Dourif (as Pitere De Vries), Jose Ferrer, Francesca Annis (as Lady Jessica), Leonardo Cimino, Linda Hunt, Patrick Stewart (as Gurney Halleck), Sting (as Feyd Rautha), Max Von Sydow, Sean Young (as Chani), Silvana Mangano, Kenneth McMillan (as Baron Vladimir Harkonnen), and Virginia Madsen (as Princess Irulan) 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: In this case, the #1 in the title of this sale is not the actual style of the one-sheet (whenever we know the style of a one-sheet we list it for those of you who know which style you are looking for). In this case, the posters from this particular movie were not marked, but because we are selling more than one poster from this movie this week as separate eBay sales, we needed to differentiate between the sales, and we did so by marking them "#1, #2, etc. Note that this is a rare advance one-sheet (note the "Coming Soon to a Theatre Near You" at the bottom of the poster). Note that this one-sheet came directly from an individual who worked at Universal Pictures in the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s. He received many samples of posters which he carefully saved. Not only are they in wonderful condition (practically brand new unless otherwise noted), but his collection includes some posters that are extremely rare, and in fact, he may have some posters which were only made as samples and never were generally distributed! Condition: very good to fine. The poster would be fine except there are four creases in a vertical line in the top right center of the image background (above and below the tagline).. Note that this poster was never folded. Most movie posters from before 1980 were machine folded immediately after printing, but a very few were left unfolded. An unfolded poster from before 1980 is almost always far more difficult to find than a folded poster of the same title, and finding unfolded posters in excellent condition is even more difficult!
