Hand Signed and Numbered Limited Edition Screen Print (36" x 24"); 448/450
Mint Rolled; Artist Martin Ansin
Mondo, 2013

A Conan The Barbarian Screen Print by Martin Ansin with intense colors and muscle-bound imagery that is both Hand Signed by Ansin and Hand Numbered 448/450 in the bottom right corner in pencil. Through creative vision and original inspiration, Alternative Art in the form of Limited Edition Screen and Giclee Prints has vastly become a big part of the movie poster collecting industry amongst artists, fans, and galleries. With some starting as early as the 2000s, companies like Mondo, Spoke Art Gallery, Bottleneck Galleries, Vice Press, Mad Duck Posters, Skuzzles, and more have procured some of the most talented artists in the world to create lush and loving fan-desired art that was never available before. What began as a very small alternative for those seeking something unique from their favorite film has turned into a major industry where the best posters can sell out in a matter of minutes. Renowned names like Drew Struzan, Roger Kastel, Laurent Durieux, Tyler Stout, Olly Moss, Ken Taylor, Killian Eng, Mark "Jock" Simpson, Steve Chorney and so many others have shown there is indeed demand for amazing art that is sometimes as good as or even better than the original posters from a film.

The print is in mint condition showing no signs of being used or displayed. It shows only the most minimal signs of handling.

Based on Robert E. Howard's pulp-fantasy hero, John Milius' gritty fantasy epic gave Arnold Schwarzenegger his breakthrough starring role as the titular adventurer, out to avenge the murder of his parents by cult leader Thulsa Doom (James Earl Jones).

Estimate: $300 - 600
