Artist: Graham Humphreys Important Added Info: Note that the poster we are offering has the credits in a black bar across the bottom, while some have the credits in a white bar at the bottom. Poster artist Graham Humphreys was kind enough to respond to our query with the following information. "I've seen some before. Normally it would be black, but I imagine a run was made without the extra inking so that venue strips could be pasted more easily on the raw paper. At that time, venue strips were quite common. The only reason the orange credit block remains is simply because it wasn't part of the 4 colour process. The orange was a double hit 5th colour, and presumably it was just more efficient to leave the printing plate as it was. This is what I assume anyway. There is no reason for any dodgy reproduction to have a white strip. Quad posters were designed in the knowledge that the bottom 3 inches would often be covered with a venue strip, pasted with individual cinema details and dates." Note also that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: good. The bottom 2" was folded back at one time and there are creases, pairs of staple holes and a few tiny tears around the edges. There is some fine surface paper loss on parts of the folds. Please see our super-sized image before bidding on this very desirable British Quad. Learn More about condition grades
