They're on a mission from God."; "The show that really hits the road."; "The most devastating team since nitro and glycerine."; "Written by Dan Aykroyd and John Landis") starring John Belushi (in the title role as Jake Blues), Dan Aykroyd (in the title role as Elwood Blues), James Brown (singer), Cab Calloway, Ray Charles, Carrie Fisher, Aretha Franklin, Henry Gibson, The Blues Brothers Band (Steve Cropper, Donald 'Duck' Dunn, Murphy 'Murph' Dunne, Willie 'Too Big' Hall, Tom 'Bones' Malone, Lou 'Blue Lou' Marini, Matt 'Guitar' Murphy, Alan 'Mr. Fabulous' Rubin), John Candy, Kathleen Freeman, Frank Oz, Twiggy, Charles Napier, Paul Reubens (as a waiter), John Lee Hooker, and Steven Spielberg (as a clerk). Note that a big part of the appeal of this movie was the cameo appearances by many of the greatest blues legends of all time, and the soundtrack included not only classics performed by Belushi and Aykroyd, but also original classics from the performers themselves! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Olly Moss Important Added Info: Note that this art print has been hand-numbered 72/75! Also, note that Alamo founder Tim League tells us a VERY important additional detail about this poster. He says "The ONLY WAY collectors could get this print, was to be at the actual screening. It was NEVER available online, and thus has been particularly sought after by Mondo collectors!". This is one of 2,346 auctions for Mondo/Alamo Drafthouse prints from the personal collection of Tim League, co-founder and Executive Chairman of Alamo Drafthouse! All 2,346 auctions begin on November 29th, and all close December 13th, starting at around 3:00 PM CST, a few seconds apart! All the prints are being auctioned by eMoviePoster.com, and will ship to the winning bidders from eMoviePoster.com, who WILL combine purchases into as few packages as possible (and they can also be combined with purchases from "non-Mondo" eMoviePoster.com auctions, only charging the actual cost of shipping, plus $3 for packing materials). Please know that 100% of the proceeds from the sale will go towards paying staff of the Alamo Drafthouse and paying debt and expenses accrued during the COVID closures. And eMoviePoster.com has slashed its commission rates, so that we too can do all we can to support this most worthwhile cause. Whether you are a prior collector of Mondo prints or if you have never purchased one of them before, you surely have a movie fan in your life who would like something unique under their Christmas tree this year (or maybe you want to give it to yourself!). Our deepest thanks to everyone who participates in this very special set of 2,346 auctions! Condition: fine. The limited edition art print is in wonderful condition and it displays quite well! An important note about the condition of the print in this auction (or, in the case of 25 of the auctions, prints). It comes from the personal collection of Tim League, and it has been carefully stored since it was first printed. In the case of all but 46 of the 2,344 of the prints, it is in wonderful condition, and likely looks exactly as it did when it was printed, and we give all those our "fine" grade, which is the highest grade we give (and which equates to most dealers' "mint" grade). In the case of a very small number of the prints (46 in all!), it acquired one or more defects, and in those cases we give it a lower grade, and explain in words what those defects are. If you like purchasing limited edition prints in wonderful condition, THIS is the auction for you! Learn More about condition grades
