Monty Python's Life of Brian, the 1979 Terry Jones English historical religious comedy ("He's not the Messiah...

NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.
Artist: William Stout
Important Added Info: Note that this is the first time we have auctioned an advance one-sheet ("Coming Soon to a Theatre Near You!") for this title! Our consignor received this rare poster directly from the printer, and was told that it was "recalled" because Warner Bros. neglected to credit Terry Gilliam for his animation. Also, the regular (non-advance) poster has "Honk if you love Brian" in the lower-right of the art which completely covers artist William Stout's signature.

UPDATED 09/07/2016: Note that we have updated the Important Added Info!


Condition: good to very good. There is moderate fold and border wear. Much of the poster is printed with a slightly reflective gold surface that has a few visible creases and smudges. It is otherwise in pretty nice condition and it displays well from a reasonable distance!
