An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Autographed One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 26 3/4" x 40 1/2" [68 x 103 cm]) (Learn More)

E.T. the Extra Terrestrial, the classic 1982 Steven Spielberg (nominated for the Best Director Academy Award for this film) science fiction (sci-fi) alien family fantasy melodrama ("His Adventure on Earth"; "He is afraid. He is totally alone. He is 3,000,000 light years from home."; "Written by Melissa Mathison"; nominated for the Best Picture Academy Award) starring Dee Wallace, Peter Coyote, Henry Thomas ("as Elliott"), Drew Barrymore (in her second movie role!), and Robert MacNaughton

Artist: B.D. Fox and Friends Inc
Important Added Info: Note that when this movie was first released, some 27" x 41" posters with the bike over the moon image were created and were personally distributed by Steven Spielberg only and are virtually impossible to find. Shortly after those were made, the studio created the 26 3/4" x 40 1/2" bike over the moon posters for the first regular release, and that is the poster we are offering here (and this style of poster is indeed difficult to find, much more difficult than the other styles created for this movie). Please bid knowing that this is the original 26 3/4" x 40 1/2" first general theatrical poster, but that it is NOT from the small run of posters personally distributed by Spielberg prior to these being printed! Please also note that that we know that there are many reproductions of this poster, and one of the ways to tell if it is an original is by the measurements. We want bidders to know that this poster is 100% original! For those who know the exact measurements of the original, know that we carefully measured the poster and confirm that it measures exactly 26 3/4" x 40 1/2" (reproductions of this poster are either smaller than this or 27" x 41"). Please bid with confidence that this poster is 100% the original theatrical poster from 1982! Also note that this poster has been personally autographed (signed) by Michael Fulmer who was the chief model maker for this movie and Bess Wiley (she apparently worked on the special effects of this movie, although we can't confirm that, but she did work on many other Spielberg movies). Also note that this one-sheet measures 26 3/4" x 40 1/2" [68 x 103 cm], but it has not been trimmed.

Condition: good. The poster was never folded. It had pinholes in the corners, and some creases and scuffs scattered throughout (more so in the background area above the tree at lower left, and below the moon above it). Someone put some restoration paint in the background in that area, and no doubt it matched the background well when it was done, but now it is much more noticeable (see our super-sized image). One could either have a restorer remove the paint and perform additional restoration, or one could choose to live with this defect, but please look over our entire super-sized image to get a good sense of the condition of this poster before placing a bid.
