In the programme he is injected with nausea-inducing drugs and made to watch violence, similar to the type he had committed. It is while in therapy that his eyes are clamped open.

This is an original cinema poster for the film Get Carter. This item will be on display in the Saatchi Gallery, London as part of their 2025 ‘Flowers – Flora in Contemporary Art and Culture’ exhibition which opens in February 2025. It will be delivered framed after the exhibition finishes in May 2025. Michael Caine, in one of his iconic roles, plays London gangster Jack Carter who travels north to his hometown of Newcastle to avenge the death of his brother. Arnaldo Putzu produced the stunning artwork for this poster. Its not 100% clear why the artist painted a floral pattern on Caines suit jacket. Perhaps it was an ironic nod to the swinging 60s. In any case it certainly hits the mark making this one of the great British film posters form the last 60 years. The poster is linen backed in excellent condition.

This is a UK poster from the films first release in 1971. The 3rd unframed image is the actual poster available for sale.

This is an original style D poster for the film Star Wars. It is widely known as the Circus Poster and on the request of George Lucas George Lucas features ?Luke and Leah? swinging on a rope. Charles White produced the sketch and airbrush sections of the poster while Drew Struzan painted the portraits with oil. After carefully producing the painting you see on the 'postage stamp', the realised they had left no space for the credits and came up with the solution to paint the Obi Wan Kinobi on the right-hand side thus creating the scale required for the credits at the bottom. The first printing of the poster was done in the summer of 1978. (The film was so popular that it had continued to run in cinemas since its release in 1977.) The poster was commissioned to be re-printed in 1992 but this version is from 1978 print run. It is linen backed and in outstanding condition which can be best assessed in the third unframed image.

This is an original UK quad cinema poster for the film Moonraker. Having previously seen Bond in diving gear, skiing gear, and of course his trademark tux, the Moonraker poster sees Bonds wearing a spacesuit. Moonraker was thought by many to be the franchise's answer to the 'Star Wars' phenomenon gripping the world in the late 70s. There is an almost 3D quality to this poster in which friend/foe Jaws and the Bond girl Holy Goodhead feature prominently. Overall this poster presents really nicely and would look greate framed with no colour loss through fading. The unframed image is a higher-definition picture that enables condition assessment.

This is an original US One Sheet Poster for Diamonds are Forever. With George Lazenby having played the role last time, Bond is immediately recognisable as Sean Connery, surrounded by two female characters holding handfuls of diamonds. All 3 are positioned on the arm of a space buggy that Bond hijacks in the film. Blofeld's diamond satellite superweapon and oil rig lair feature in the background. Instead of a tagline as used in previous Bond posters, the "Forever" in the poster is repeated. This poster is in beautiful folded condition with no colour loss along the folds let alone cracking. The artwork by Robert McGinnis works particularly well with the portrait format of this poster. It was to be Sean Connery's last appearance in an Eon-produced James Bond film.
