First Release British Quad (30" x 40") Signed by Director George A. Romero
Very Fine- Folded
Monarch Film Corporation, 1969

Rare Original 1969 first release Britsh Quad Poster for George A. Romero's Night of the Living Dead. This astonishing poster was used to promote the limited first theatrical release of the film in England in 1969. The simple and effective high-contrast black-and-white design encapsulates the eerie tone of Romero's masterpiece. Few examples of this incredible poster have ever been offered for auction. More incredibly, George A. Romero signed this at the Montreal Comic Con in 2015. From a Private Collector.

This 1960s cult classic film poster shows slight handling and crease wear, minor corner pinholes, and two diagonal creases on the left side.

George Romero's original zombie movie (though the word zombie is never used), in which a small group of people are trapped in a farmhouse by a sudden epidemic of the walking dead. As well as creating a new genre, this innovative indie film is also notable for making a Black actor (Duane Jones) its hero.

Estimate: $3,000 - 6,000
