An Unfolded Special Poster (measures 15 1/2" x 17" [39 x 43 cm]) (Learn More) Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (released in the U.S. as "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone"), the 2001 Chris Columbus English/U.S. family witchcraft sorcerer magic adventure fantasy thriller ("Let the magic begin"; "Journey into your imagination"; "Journey beyond your imagination."; "Need a break from your family? Spend Christmas with Harry."; "It's everything you wished for this Christmas."; "Not the only one with a homemade sweater for Christmas?"; "It's everything you wished for... and more."; "Based on the novel by J.K. Rowling") starring Daniel Radcliffe (in the title role as Harry Potter), Rupert Grint (as Ron Weasley), Emma Watson (as Hermione Granger), Richard Harris (as Professor Dumbledore), Maggie Smith (as Professor McGonagall), Robbie Coltrane (as Hagrid), Ian Hart (as Professor Quirrell), Richard Brenner (as He Who Must Not Be Named), Alan Rickman (as Professor Snape), and John Cleese (as Nearly Headless Nick). Note that this film was known as "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" everywhere except the U.S., where it was known as "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone". This was to keep the film consistent with the book series because the U.S. publisher, Scholastic, had changed the title of the book to "Sorcerer's". The change was likely due in part to American children not being familiar with the mythical alchemist substance. An uncited source states the publisher also thought that an American child would not want to read a book with the word 'philosopher' in the title! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: This is a very rare uncut printer's test poster (often referred to as a "printer's proof")! Before a poster was printed in large quantities, the printer would print a limited number of posters as "test" posters. Because they needed to be shown to people at the studio, people in the art department, the stars, etc, they would print a number of test posters and distribute them to these people. Some of them would be fully trimmed, but often they would leave the color chart on the left edge of many of the posters, Note also that this poster is double-sided, but not in the regular way. There is a different image on each side of the poster. We have provided an image of each side, and please realize that the winner of this auction will receive ONE poster! Condition: very good to fine. Learn More about condition grades
