Artist: Graham Humphreys Important Added Info: Note that even though the poster has "Now on video" printed on it, this poster is from the original theatrical release of this movie in the UK! Palace Pictures tried something new in the UK by releasing this film simultaneously on video and theatrically. This was an attempt to fight video piracy which was at its peak around that time. This poster is rare and 100% original. No other designs were made for this UK theatrical release. Also, Palace Pictures was a small art house company and the film did not get huge distribution. Please bid on this poster knowing that it is surely from the first UK release and is NOT a video poster! Note also that this British quad measures 28 3/4" x 38" [73 x 97 cm], but it has not been trimmed. Also note 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 poster has many creases along portions of the foldlines and edges and there are several light creases scattered throughout (see our image). There are some glue stains on back at center (and to a lesser extent at upper right) and they very slightly bleed through to the front. One could choose to display the poster as is, or after some proper restoration the poster will display well (but bear in mind the poster's condition and the cost of restoration before bidding on it.)
