An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded One-Sheet Movie Poster (measures 27" x 41") (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!

Condition: good. This poster is in "lesser" condition (what many dealers would describe as "good to very good" or "good", or in the case of items with more serious defects, which should be easily seen on our large images, "fair" or "poor")! Please remember that OUR "very good" grade is much more strict than almost all movie poster dealers, and many of these "lesser" condition posters might pass for "very good" from many other dealers! But it DOES have clear defects, which are likely to be very noticeable in our "large" or "super-sized" images that you can click on from our small image at right. Looking at our super-sized image will likely tell you right away whether it is in "good to very good", "good", "fair", or "poor" condition (if the item has significant defects that are difficult to see in our image, then we describe those in words elsewhere within the auction). Note that some of these posters have tape repairs on the back, and we note more significant repairs, but we do not note just a few small pieces of tape on the back of a poster. PLEASE DO NOT USE WISHFUL THINKING WHEN LOOKING AT THE CONDITION OF THIS POSTER! It DOES have clear defects, and they may be such that you would not be happy with this item. We know that some collectors could accept this item's defects, and display it as is, and we also know that many collectors would only be happy with this poster if they had it restored, so please do not bid on it unless you feel sure you can accept it as it is, or are willing to pay to have it properly restored.
