Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Thirty by Forty Movie Poster (measures 30" x 40") (Learn More) The First Great Train Robbery (released in the U.S. as "The Great Train Robbery"), 1979 Michael Crichton English railroad locomotive railway robbery action crime comedy ("Never have so few taken so much from so many."; "Screenplay by Michael Crichton based on his novel") starring Sean Connery, Donald Sutherland, Lesley-Anne Down, Alan Webb, and Malcolm Terris. Note that this movie was based on an actual train robbery in England in 1853. The movie was intended to be simply called "The Great Train Robbery", but it was released as "The First Great Train Robbery" in England, because there had been a major train robbery in 1963, and the producers were afraid that people would think the movie was about that! Also, the producers were able to convince Sean Connery to perform his own stunts in the movie, including running on top of a moving train (they told him it was going at 35mph, but later on it was proven that it had been going 55mph!). 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: NOTE: This 30x40, plus many others that eMoviePoster is selling this week came from a most extraordinary collection. They were purchased by a collector when these films were issued and have been carefully stored under ideal conditions ever since! The result is that these posters are as near to perfect as any 30x40s we have ever sold (or just about any movie posters for that matter!)! If you purchase any of these, you will see that they truly look as though they might have just been printed (although each may have a few minute defects, which you would have to pore over the poster to find). Just finding these titles in a 30x40 size might take years, as they are far more rare than the corresponding one-sheet. To find them in this condition might take one the rest of their life! In the past few months we have sold other 30x40s (and 40x60s, one-sheets, inserts, and lobby card sets) for this collector, and they have sold for far more than they usually do in lesser condition, as collectors have correctly realized that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! Please note that only the 30x40s from this collection will have this information on them. We are also selling 30x40s that did not come from this collection. Also note that these are the very last 30x40s from this wonderful collection (we wish there were more, but this is the end of them!). Condition: fine. Learn More about condition grades
