Remember he's on your side"; "The last law in a world gone out of control. Pray that he's out there somewhere."; "Music by Brian May"; "Written by James McCausland and George Miller") starring Mel Gibson (in the title role as Mad Max Rockatansky), Joanne Samuel, Hugh Keays-Byrne (as Toecutter), Steve Bisley, Tim Burns, and Roger Ward NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Bill Garland Important Added Info: Note that this poster does not have a union logo in the center of the bottom border. Recently, it was discovered that there are Mad Max one-sheets with a "GCIU" logo in place of the "GAU" logo in the center of the bottom border. Since GCIU didn't begin until late 1982, we know the posters with that logo are from the 1983 re-release which makes further sense because there was a major 1983 re-release (after the huge success of the sequel, "The Road Warrior"). However, THIS poster does not have either logo, so we don't know for certain whether it is from 1980 or 1983 (but we believe it is more likely it is from 1980, so we are identifying it in that way, and we know that several other major dealers agree with us). But please do not bid on this poster unless you can accept the uncertainty as to when it is from. If anyone knows more about this subject, please e-mail us and we will post it here.

The poster had fine surface paper loss on parts of some foldlines (typical of high-gloss posters of this period). It also had creases and scuffs along parts of the folds. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well! Learn More about condition grades
