No Stated Place of Publication: Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer [MGM], 1973. First German Edition. Near fine. A quite scarce German Movie Poster for Sam Peckinpah's 1973 western masterpiece, "Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid" starring James Coburn, Kris Kristofferson, and Bob Dylan. The film centers around an aging Pat Garrett who is hired by a group of wealthy New Mexico cattle barons to kill his old friend Billy the Kid who had escaped from jail. In the film, soon after his arrival Billy is confronted by three strangers seeking to kill him. All three assailants are killed in a shootout where Billy is aided by a fourth stranger named "Alias" (Blob Dylan) who kills one of the assailants by knifing him in the neck. Dylan composed a number of songs for the movie's score and soundtrack album "Pat Garrett & Billy the Kid" which was released in the same year as the movie. The film was nominated for two BAFTA Awards: for Film Music (Bob Dylan) and Most Promising Newcomer (Kris Kristofferson), as well as for a Grammy as Album of Best Original Score (Bob Dylan). The soundtrack includes the classic Dylan song "Knockin' on Heaven's Door" -- which was a huge international hit. The film also was notable for continual behind-the-scenes battles between Peckinpah and the production company (MGM). Shortly after its completion, the film was taken out of Peckinpah's control and was substantially reedited at MGM's insistence, resulting in a shortened version being released to theaters. [This reedited version was largely disowned by the film's cast and crew.] Ultimately, Peckinpah's original version was released on video in 1998 and many critics declared the Peckinpah version to be one of the era's best films. The poster, which measures approximately 33 inches X 23 1/4 inches, is in about Near-Fine condition with pin holes near the corners, slight wear to the poster's edge, three horizontal folds and one vertical one. QUITE SCARCE.

Description:
Finland: Warner Bros, 1953. No Binding. Fine. An extremely rare Finnish "tour",(possible "insert") poster for the Alfred Hitchcock movie STRANGERS ON A TRAIN. The film was first screened in Finland on the 7th March in 1952. It was re-released in 1962 and had a further screening in 1984 in Helsinki. You are looking at a "tour" poster issued following that initial release of 1952. The poster has a printed date of 1953 - it is most unusual for Finnish movie posters to have a printed date on them. At the bottom there is a blank margin where you might normally expect printed text concerning times, dates, location and ticket price headings for hand-completion in respect of regional/local screenings. The dimensions of this poster are also non-standard. You can reasonably expect a normal Finnish "tour-poster" to conform to approx 24" x 13" but in this case the poster measures 27" x 13.25" - more akin to the Italian locandina. It is possible that…

This book is in good condition. There is some wear on the front, back, spine, edges and corner of the cover. There is some dog-earring on the right corner pages of the book. The pages are white, crisp and clear of any markings. "This is a history of the visual arts produced in the geographical area that now constitutes the United States. Such a book is difficult to title. A History of United States Art sounds awkward and logically might even be construed to exclude the arts of the colonial period. Thus, with apologies to our northern and southern neighbors, I use the title A History of American Art, knowing full well that the terms America and the United States are not synonymous...." - Preface from A History of American Art
