One Sheet (27" x 41"); Advance
Very Fine+ Folded; Artwork by Stan Watts
AVCO Embassy Pictures, 1981

In 1997, following the crash of the U.S. president's plane in Manhattan-which has since become a massive maximum-security prison-a convicted bank robber is tasked with a mission to rescue him. This is the premise of director John Carpenter's dystopian sci-fi thriller. The advance poster is folded and shows only general fold wear, with slight separation at the crossfolds.

In the not-too-distant future of 1997, John Carpenter's highly entertaining sci-fi film imagines Manhattan Island as a high-security prison. The story follows one-eyed criminal Snake Plissken (played by Kurt Russell), who must infiltrate this prison to rescue the President of the United States (portrayed by Donald Pleasence).

Estimate: $300 - 600
