Artist: Tom William Chantrell Important Added Info: Note that this poster is from the first continuous release in England in 1978, after the movie won Academy Awards, and because the movie played continuously in England, it is not a re-release! We are also currently auctioning the pre-awards British quad in a separate auction. Also note that this British quad measures 30" x 39 3/4" [76 x 101 cm], but it does not appear to be trimmed (we have previously auctioned examples off this poster that measure exactly the same, and also the tiny NSS printed information in the left of the bottom border is slightly off-register, but that too was true of past examples). We feel certain that this is how this poster was created, and that this is absolutely the 1978 British Quad from after the Academy Awards. Condition: very good. The poster was never folded. There are creases along the bottom border and very minor wear in the other borders. Otherwise, the poster is in nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
