These are two rough composition sketches for the third and fourth "Police Academy" movies. Some of the character poses are similar to the final poster leading us to believe the studio allowed several artists to submit designs for the posters with guidelines for how each character should be portrayed. Although the studio did not use Weistling's design, you can see elements that Drew Struzan then used for the final artwork.

12" x 8.5" (30.5 x 22.5 cm); 11" x 8.5" (29.5 x 21 cm)

Condition: Very good to Excellent

The first artwork has four lines of masking tape affixing the tracing paper. The second had a tiny amount of paper loss on the top border. The art remains untouched and in excellent condition.

Artist: Morgan Weistling
