An Unfolded Special Poster (measures 25" x 38" [64 x 97 cm]) (Learn More) X-Men (also known as The Uncanny X-Men) is the comic book superhero team created by Stan Lee & Jack Kirby in 1963 for Marvel Comics. The first members of the X-Men (who were teenage "mutants", brought together by an older professor) were Dr. Xavier (Professor X), The Cyclops, The Beast, Angel, Marvel Girl, and Iceman. In 1975, Len Wein and David Cockrum started an all new X-Men, with entirely different characters (except for Cyclops), and the most popular was Wolverine, who became a solo hero as well, and that led to renewed success for the superhero team. The X-Men franchise has spread to almost all forms of media including books, television shows, and several films. Artist: Jim Lee & Scott Williams 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, which added an extra inch to the width of the poster (which explains why the poster measures 25" x 38" [64 x 97 cm]). Once these printer's test posters were shown to the various people in a position to "OK" them, the printer would print the full print run of the posters. Not only is a printer's test poster far more rare than a regular poster, but it is also 100% genuine as there is no fear of purchasing a reproduction! Condition: good. The poster has very slight discoloration scattered in some areas from exposure to moisture. Please see our super-sized image to get a good sense of the condition of this item prior to placing a bid.
