Monty Python's Life of Brian (1979) Original Movie Poster Honk If You Love Brian

Description: Monty Python's Life of Brian (1979) Original Movie Poster Honk If You Love BrianMonty Python's Life of Brian (1979) Original Movie Poster Honk If You Love Brian In the Beginning, there was Something Completely Different. And it was Good. Thereafter, Monty Python begat HOLY GRAIL which begat their Supreme and Holiest Cinematic Achievement, LIFE OF BRIAN. Graham Chapman, John Cleese, Eric Idle, Terry Gilliam, Terry Jones and Michael Palin (in alphabetical order) were aided and abetted by Previous Beatle George Harrison's Handmade Films when nobody else would give them a shekel to finance their most charitable work, more or less. The effusive poster (there's so much comedy to effuse) captures the, uh, spirit of the Gospel of Brian like nothing else -- outside, perhaps, of a 35 mm or 16 mm print, or a VHS copy, or maybe a DVD or Blu-ray, all of which are also available from someone, somewhere. But for now, we have this Holy One-Sheet, left by Brian as a Sign that we, too, should follow his example and place his poster upon our very walls, or in storage until the Rapture. (Original American release sired by Orion through Warner Bros., or vice-versa.) * * * * * Recapture the lost magic of Big Screen Motion Pictures with a genuine movie theater one-sheet! In the Before Times, movies were social and cultural events, larger-than-life communal experiences presented in special places in the dark. Miss that? Turn any room into a movie theater lobby with a regulation-sized poster (usually 27 x 41 inches), direct from my old theater to yours... Every piece is a genuine, collectible slice of film history -- 100-percent exhibitor certified! Accept no substitutes! FREE USPS DOMESTIC SHIPPING UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED. There are so many hidden expenses -- from postage, handling and proper packing materials to various ebay seller fees -- and as a long-time ebay buyer I generally just want to know exactly how much somebody is asking for something (plus your local taxes, of course). So, as a new seller, I'm trying to price my items to include all other associated costs within my control so it's easy for YOU, the buyer, to see your actual cost. Please keep that in mind when considering the total price and the collectibility of the item. Details below. ABOUT THE POSTERS AND THE GEEZER SELLING THEM: I'm an old movie theater booker and proprietor (among other things), with a lifelong penchant for collecting (movie posters, LPs and CDs, DVDs and Blu-rays, vintage audio equipment, tiki mugs...). The one-sheets I'm selling are ORIGINAL, HIGHLY COLLECTIBLE posters from my personal collection, unless otherwise specified -- actual theatrical one-sheets (27 x 40-41 inches, depending on the date they were produced), supplied to American exhibitors for many decades exclusively by National Screen Service (NSS). I wish you could see them Actual Size, because their visual impact is more striking than ever now that most people watch movies at home on flat-screen TVs that are only slightly larger (or smaller) than these lobby posters. These are the real things, NOT REPRODUCTIONS. You can verify their authenticity by looking at the NSS number and release date in the lower right corner. Most one-sheets were NSS folded (that's the way they stored and shipped them), but I've kept these flat or rolled for the last 40-50+ years, since most of them are from the 1970s and 1980s. They've spent a lot of time under my bed, safely sealed in storage containers. Many of them were actually used in movie theater lobbies and display cases, which accounts for some frayed edges, crinkles, pinholes, tears, or tape (on the back) -- which don't affect the image printed on the poster itself. These were hard-working one sheets and they have developed "character" over the decades! Please CHECK THE PHOTOS because these are the actual posters you will receive. I've tried to add close-ups of relevant details and/or any minor blemishes. The photos were taken in natural daylight and the only picture "adjustments" were to brightness, sharpness and contrast to make them as accurate as possible. I placed them on a cardboard flat resting on a white bedsheet and in some cases used quarters for scale -- and to hold down the edges for the photo. I'm a new seller, but I've been buying on ebay since the 1990s, so I figured it was time I returned the favor. PRICES INCLUDE SHIPPING. All one-sheets will be shipped rolled in sturdy 2- or 3-inch by 30-inch cardboard mailing tubes designed for that very purpose (unless, as noted, there's some good reason not to). US SHIPPING ONLY via USPS PRIORITY MAIL or USPS GROUND ADVANTAGE (usually 2-5 business days) with tracking and insurance. Thank You and Please Enjoy the Feature Presentation!
