A 1982 Re-Release Theatrical Folded One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) Raiders of the Lost Ark, the classic 1981 Steven Spielberg (nominated for the Best Director Academy Award for this film) World War II (WWII) Nazi treasure hunting romantic action adventure fantasy thriller ("Indiana Jones - the new hero from the creators of Jaws and Star Wars."; "Story by George Lucas and Philip Kaufman"; "Screenplay by Lawrence Kasdan"; nominated for the Best Picture Academy Award) starring Harrison Ford (as Indiana Jones), Karen Allen, Paul Freeman, Ronald Lacey, John Rhys-Davies, Denholm Elliott, Alfred Molina, and Tutte Lemkow NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Richard Amsel Important Added Info: Note that there are two versions of this poster: one with a GAU printer logo and one with GCIU logo. We have been told that the GCIU logo wasn't trademarked until July 1983, so the theory is that any poster that carries the GCIU logo must be from 1983 or later and are either theatrical re-release posters or possibly video store posters. We do not know for sure. If anyone knows more about this subject, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Otherwise, know that the poster offered here has the GAU logo and is 100% the original theatrical poster from the 1982 re-release! Note that all but 28 of the folded one-sheets in this Part I of eMoviePoster.com's December Major Auction were consigned to us by legendary French dealer/collector Dominique Besson. Dominique Besson started collecting movie posters in 1981, and became a dealer in French and European posters in 1994, and has remained as a top dealer ever since! But in addition, 30 years ago, Dominique began collecting U.S. one-sheets, first those with Saul Bass art, and then adding Alfred Hitchcock posters, then Humphrey Bogart, and he finally ended up collecting in an amazing total of 47 different categories, purchasing the posters from all over the world! Now the time has come to sell this wonderful collection, and Dominique has chosen eMoviePoster.com to do so, through our auctions! As noted above, all but 28 of the folded one-sheets in this Part I come from this more remarkable collection (the 28 that do not were consigned to us by other collectors, and are clearly marked). This is not all of the Dominique Besson collection we are auctioning. In addition, there are approximately 200 more folded one-sheets that will be in Part IV of this special auction (ones from the 1970s to present), and there are approximately 100 unfolded one-sheets that will be in Part III (including many great ones). This is a very rare opportunity to purchase folded one-sheets (all of which have had no professional restoration) from one of the greatest one-sheet collections assembled! Note that this one-sheet is from the category that Dominique Besson collected on that he labeled "Steven Spielberg". Condition: very good. There is small separation in the upper crossfold. It is otherwise in pretty nice condition and it displays well. Learn More about condition grades
