An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Teaser One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) Alien, the classic 1979 Ridley Scott English/U.S. science fiction (sci-fi) space monster horror action thriller ("In space no one can hear you scream."; "a word of warning..."; "Story by Dan O'Bannon & Ronald Shusett") starring Tom Skerritt (as Dallas), Sigourney Weaver (as Ripley), Veronica Cartwright (as Lambert), Harry Dean Stanton (as Brett), John Hurt (as Kane), Ian Holm (as Ash), Yaphet Kotto ("as Parker"), and Bolaji Badejo (in the title role as the Alien). Note that fantasy artist H.R. Giger did the wonderful art that was used to create the alien and the alien planet, but his art was not used on any of the regular posters, only on special prints created after the movie became a hit! 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: Note that this is a teaser one-sheet (note the "ONE SHEET 'ALIEN' TEASER" at bottom right and "COMING FROM TWENTIETH CENTURY-FOX" at bottom center). It is far more rare than the "regular" one-sheet (we have auctioned many times more regular one-sheets as teaser one-sheets), and it has a completely different image (and the image on the regular one-sheet was also used on almost all other U.S. posters, which makes this poster with a completely different image stand out all the more)! What IS linenbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: fair. The poster had creases, scuffs, and surface paper loss on parts of the folds. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. Unfortunately, after it was backed, the poster became wet and it acquired considerable water staining in the bottom several inches, both in the poster and in the linen backing. This poster urgently needs to be removed from the backing and re-restored, so bear this in mind before bidding. Also note that we will not send this poster with other posters for fear the potential mold at the bottom of the poster could migrate to other ones, so it will be sent by itself in a tube, and also bear this in mind before bidding.
