'The Running Man' is a deadly game no one has ever survived. But... Schwarzenegger has yet to play."; "Based on the Novel 'The Running Man' by Richard Bachman"; written by Stephen King, who used a pseudonym to write "The Bachman Books") starring Arnold Schwarzenegger (in the title role as the Running Man, Ben Richards), Maria Conchita Alonso, Yaphet Kotto, Richard Dawson ("as Killian"), Jim Brown, Jesse Ventura, and Mick Fleetwood NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. 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 47 1/4" x 69 1/4" [120 x 176 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! Note that this is an advance French poster (note the "16 Mars" at the bottom of the poster). Also note that this is a double-sided poster. From the 1990s on, movie posters were often made in double-sided versions (for use in light boxes). If we do not note that a poster is double-sided (as this is), then it is single-sided. Note that the image on the reverse is a mirror image of the image on the front! Condition: good to very good. Learn More about condition grades
