An Original Vintage (from an early 1970 2nd release of this movie) Theatrical Folded British Quad Movie Poster (BQ; Quad Crown; measures approximately 30" x 40") (Learn More)

Kes, the 1969 (released in the U.S. in 1970) Ken Loach English boy-and-his-beloved-falcon juvenile family relationship melodrama ("They beat him. They deprived him. They ridiculed him. They broke his heart. But they couldn't break his spirit"; "He lies, cheats, and steals, but has learned to survive...And doesn't give a tupp'ny damn for anybody! But he cares about Kes"; "From Barry Hine book 'Kestrel For A Knave'"; about a 15 year-old English boy who constantly is in trouble and has a terrible home life; he finds a kestrel, a type of falcon, and trains it, and there are strong parallels between the life of the boy and the life of the bird) starring David Bradley, Colin Welland, Lynne Perrie, Freddie Fletcher, Brian Glover, and Bob Bowes
If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that this is a rare "country of origin" poster for this English movie! Also note that this British quad was folded vertically three times and horizontally three times (this being folded one time more than is sometimes done, but it is quite common with British quads, especially older ones). Because of this, this quad can be sent in one of our standard size flat packages (but if it is purchased together with quads that have not been folded in the same way, then it will of course have to be sent in one of our tubes if the other quads are unfolded, or, if it is purchased with other quads that are only folded once horizontally than it can either be sent in an oversized flat package, OR in a tube). But if this quad is purchased by itself (or solely with other quads that have been folded the same way), then the shipping can be lower, because it then fits in a standard package. But please realize that because this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time it is likely that the creases have diminished and therefore re-folding the poster will likely bring some of those creases back, but we leave that decision as to whether or not to re-fold the poster up to the individual buyer of this item. UNLESS THE BUYER TELLS US OTHERWISE, THIS QUAD WILL BE SENT ROLLED IN A TUBE.

Condition: fair to good. There are water stains in the middle of the left white background area and there is an oval-shaped water stain in the boy's nose.
