Our expert's notes

One-Sheet (27" x 41") ; Advance
Very Fine on Linen; Artist John Alvin
Universal, 1982

This lush advance one-sheet poster by famed poster icon John Alvin features the dazzling spaceship in the clouds artwork, which provides both captivating mystery and visual intrigue, and is regarded by many fans as more eye-catching than the posters that followed. Copies of this poster in any condition are scarce and will only accrue in value.

This poster has been professionally restored, addressing slight wear in the lower left corner border and tiny pinholes in the lower border, none of which are in the image itself. There have also been some minor fold wear touch-ups, but the poster image is in terrific display condition.

Inspired by an imaginary friend he created after his parents divorced, Steven Spielberg's E.T. united cinemagoers around the world through their love for his and writer Melissa Matheson's empathic alien creation, and the floods of tears they shed when E.T. finally had to go home.

Estimate: $600 - 1,200
