National Lampoon's Animal House (released in France as "American College"), the classic 1978 John Landis teen college university fraternity slapstick comedy ("These guys are flunking out of college and loving every minute of it. You will too."; "What turns a clean-cut college kid into a shambling, sex crazed, drooling, degenerate, drink sodden college kid?"; "A Riotous Comedy in a Class of its Own."; "It was the Deltas against the rules... The rules lost!"; "Dress optional: toga not required!"; "A comedy from Universal Pictures"; "Written by Harold Ramis, Douglas Kenney & Chris Miller") starring John Belushi (as 'Bluto' Blutarsky), Tim Matheson (as Eric 'Otter' Stratton), John Vernon (as Dean Wormer), Verna Bloom (as Marion Wormer), Tom Hulce (as Larry 'Pinto' Kroger), Peter Riegert (as Donald 'Boon' Schoenstein), Mary Louise Weller (as Mandy Pepperidge), Stephen Furst (as Kent 'Flounder' Dorfman), James Daughton (as Greg Marmalard), Bruce McGill (as Daniel Simpson 'D-Day' Day), Mark Metcalf (as Doug Neidermeyer), DeWayne Jessie (as Otis Day), Karen Allen (as Katy), James Widdoes (as Robert Hoover), Martha Smith (as Barbara 'Babs' Jansen), Donald Sutherland ("as Jennings"), Kevin Bacon (very young in his very first movie role as Chip!), Douglas Kenney (as Stork), Stephen Bishop (as "charming guy with guitar"), and Sarah Holcomb (as the Dean's daughter)

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that this advance one-sheet (note the "Coming this summer." at the bottom of the poster) is far more rare than the "regular" one-sheet poster. We have only auctioned it seven times over the past 15 years! Also note that this poster was tri-folded only (which means there is no vertical machine fold) but because it would be more expensive to send flat, it will be sent rolled in a tube. This poster (and eleven others that we are currently auctioning in this part of our December Major Auction) has a wonderful provenance! It comes to us from a man whose relative worked for 20th Century-Fox in the 1970s and early 1980s, and he received many posters during the course of his job. He gave them to his young relative (our consignor), who has carefully preserved them ever since, and now, after all these years, he has given them to us to auction. So each of these posters is a guaranteed original poster, with impeccable provenance!

Condition: very good. There is minor fold and border wear (more so along the center horizontal fold). It is otherwise in pretty nice condition.
