An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Thirty by Forty Movie Poster (measures 30" x 40") (Learn More)

Apocalypse Now, the 1979 Francis Ford Coppola (nominated for the Best Director Academy Award for this film) Vietnam War epic military action thriller ("Written by John Milius and Francis Coppola [sic]"; "Narration by Michael Herr"; nominated for the Best Picture Academy Award; adapted from the classic novel by Joseph Conrad, 'Heart of Darkness', but transplanted from Africa to Vietnam; about a mentally unstable soldier sent on a secret mission to assassinate another soldier who has gone insane) starring Marlon Brando (as Colonel Walter E. Kurtz), Robert Duvall (nominated for the Best Supporting Actor Academy Award for this film), Martin Sheen (as Captain Willard), Frederic Forrest, Albert Hall, Sam Bottoms, Laurence Fishburne (billed as "Larry Fishburne"), Dennis Hopper, Harrison Ford, and Scott Glenn

Artist: Bob Peak
Important Added Info: Note that the poster has no top blank border, and the bottom border is right below the small writing, but it has NOT been trimmed. At this time, the studios experimented with printing 30x40s with a "full bleed" (meaning no blank border on the top and bottom), but they soon abandoned the approach (likely because some theater owners wondered if the poster had been trimmed!). The poster does measure 30" x 40", and it WAS printed this way, as was every other 30x40 for this title!

Condition: very good. There are a few faint creases around Brando's head, but they are truly not very noticeable or distracting.

This poster was never folded (it was sent rolled in a tube to the poster exchange, and then to the theater, if it was used in a theater). The poster has survived in pretty good condition, but has a few minor imperfections. We may have written a few words about those imperfections, but we may not have, as they are fairly minor, and you can likely see them by looking at our "super-sized" image of the actual poster. Note that, if the poster has "crinkle marks" which are difficult to see in our image, we ALWAYS mention that in words!
