The 7th film starring the Marx Brothers and one of the major hits. This poster is extremely rare (this is the only known copy) for this classic comedy caper. Prior to backing it had various areas of wear, slight loss in the borders and fold separation, but this has all been addressed during restoration and the poster presents beautifully.

A group of high school friends become concert promoters at a dance pavilion that is in danger of closing and suceed in pulling together a roster of pop acts. The film is notable for being Raquel Welch's first starring role. Pinholes, slight misfolds and handling, light bleed from a number written verso, otherwise this very scarce poster displays well. |

A plethora of Hollywood greats behind this screwball comedy about a professor (Cooper) researching slang who becomes enamoured by a bawdy nightclub singer (Stanwyck). This is a very rare UK door panel. Any wartime British paper is like hens teeth due to the paper drives. Slight ageing, otherwise in very good overall condition with good colour. |

The 27th in the series, harking back to Carry on Camping, sees the team on an archaeological dig on a camp site. The script makes the most of Sommer's foreign accent to get in as many innuendos as possible, the most famous being the "I'm going about the camp looking for scrubbers..." speech. Excellent rolled condition. |

"Infamy, infamy... they've all got it in for me!" In fact, that's just what happened to Chantrell's original quad design, which aped the Taylor/Burton blockbuster, when C20th Fox successfully sued and the original quad was quickly withdrawn, pulped and replaced with a rapidly assembled replacement. This rare 1 sheet shows Chantrell's design, making it highly collectible. |
