An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded International Half-Sheet Movie Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm]) (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! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Steve Frankfurt & Philip Gips Important Added Info: Note that this is an "international" style half-sheet (meaning it was printed in the U.S. for use in non-U.S. countries). Note the lack of a ratings box. Also note that this poster has never been folded! Some pre-1970 half-sheet posters were folded twice horizontally at the poster exchange, while some were not. It can be difficult to find an unfolded example of many pre-1970 half-sheet posters (note that most post-1970 half-sheets were NOT folded, so they are pretty much only found unfolded, and therefore this does not apply to those half-sheets). Condition: very good. There is a water stain in the blank border in the middle of the bottom edge of the poster and there is a tiny amount of paper loss in the upper right edge. There is a small crease and scuff mark in the black background at upper left, but it is not very noticeable or distracting. The back of the poster has darkened somewhat, but this does not appear to have any effect on the front. The poster is otherwise in pretty nice condition and it displays well.
