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

Assault on Precinct 13, the 1976 John Carpenter crime thriller ("A White-Hot Night of Hate!"; "The gang that swore a blood oath to destroy Precinct 13... And every cop in it!"; "Written and Directed by John Carpenter"; essentially a re-make of "Rio Bravo", but set in a police station instead of a western jail) starring Austin Stoker, Darwin Joston, Laurie Zimmer, Tony Burton, Charles Cyphers, and Nancy Kyes (billed as "Nancy Loomis")

Artist: Robert Tanenbaum
Important Added Info: Note that the tagline for this movie that reads "The gang that swore a blood oath to destroy Precinct 13... And every cop in it!" was apparently too controversial for some theaters that showed this movie. This poster has a piece of black tape over the end of the tagline (the part that reads "and every cop in it!"), and on top of the tape is a cut out ad from a pressbook. Depending on how you look at it, this "censoring" of the tagline is either a major defect, or a pretty cool historical artifact!

Condition: good. Note that there is a large piece of tape and a snipe in the right of the image (see above for why).
