1979 Rocky II Original Vintage Poster

About the Item

Released in 1979 to critical and commercial success, "Rocky II" saw Sylvester Stallone, Carl Weathers and many more of the original cast return to their iconic roles. As with the first film, it was written and directed by Stallone, with the story seeing Apollo Creed convince Rocky Balboa into the "rematch of the century" for the Heavyweight championship. This beautiful and incredibly rare design, known as the "rematch" design, is from the original promotion of the film in 1979 and is stylised in a boxing match promotion with "tickets on sale at box office". A brilliant piece of cinema history, the piece looks great framed.

James Bond 'Moonraker' Original Vintage Australian Daybill Movie Poster, 1979
Located in Devon, GB
Capitalising on the sci-fi space craze in the wake of 'Star Wars,' EON Productions opted to postpone filming 'For Your Eyes Only' in favour of loosely adapting Ian Fleming's 'Moonraker' as the eleventh instalment in the James Bond series. And so Roger Moore's fourth outing as agent 007 saw him head into outer space to prevent a plot to wipe out the world population and recreate humanity with a master race. Despite production costs more than double those of 'The Spy Who Loved Me' (1977), the space-age lark became the highest grossing 007 movie to date, until usurped by 'Goldeneye' in 1995. The Australian Daybill poster featured the same spectacular silvery artwork by American artist Daniel Goozee as the British and US poster campaigns, which pictured Bond in a spacesuit rather than his typical tux. Although a similar format, Australian day bills are significantly rarer than US insert posters.
