A matted poster concept collage for Sylvester Stallone's Rocky III hand-illustrated by legendary American commercial artist Bob Peak. Known for designing some of the most recognizable posters in film history, including those for the first five Star Trek films, My Fair Lady, and Superman, Peak created multiple concept artworks for Rocky III, including this collage depicting Clubber Lang (Mr. T) leering over Rocky Balboa (Sylvester Stallone) and his rival-turned-mentor Apollo Creed (Carl Weathers), though none were ultimately used. Peak was honored for his contributions to illustration with a 2011 exhibition at the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.

This collage is rendered in mixed media on cut-outs applied to illustration board, which in turn is backed with foam core. It exhibits pinholes and edge wear from hanging, and the foam exhibits scuffing along its borders. Dimensions: 30" x 40" x 0.75" (76.25 cm x 101.75 cm x 2 cm)

Sold without copyright; see notice in the Buyer's Guide.

Estimate: $2,500 - 5,000
