A rare Artist Proof print from Matthew Woodson for the classic Steve McQueen crime thriller Bullitt. Released in 2017, this Variant version is signed and hand-numbered (AP #13/31) and features some impressive McQueen imagery including the Ford Mustang from perhaps the movie's most famous scene. Woodson had this to say about the commission: "As posters often do, Bullitt began as a complaining session between Jay Shaw and myself. We were talking about how much we missed the classy film posters of the late '60s and early '70s. They were so straightforward and masterfully painted. Those posters and the artists who made them are what made me fall in love with poster art in the first place. So for once I decided to stop whining and actually attempt to make a period homage to one of the most stylish films ever made. For this poster, there were 3 simple rules: Make McQueen look as handsome as possible, make the Mustang look fast, and don't embarrass myself on something with Pablo Ferro's name attached to it."
