Grade: C8 Very Fine. Rolled, single-sided. Completely unused poster with only the most minimal handling/surface/edge wear. Would grade even higher if not for light compression marks from being stored in a loose tri-fold configuration and a small stain on the lower left edge.

Framing: List prices are for posters only. Please inquire to discuss framing options.

Price: $825

From John Carpenter, the original master of the genre film — a torch now carried by Quentin Tarantino. Escape from New York is easily one of Carpenter’s best and most beloved. It’s not surprising that Kurt Russell considers it his favorite film and Plissken his favorite role. Part dystopian sci-fi, part exploitation film, all badassery.

Could there be a more perfect poster for this film than this rare and absolutely gonzo Thai poster? This masterpiece from famed illustrator Tongdee Panumas is reminiscent of works by Boris Vallejo and Frank Frazetta, but with a style all it’s own.
