Our expert's notes

British Three Sheet (40" x 79")
Fine on Linen; Artist S. Neil Fujita
Paramount, 1972

The British posters for this crime classic have always had a greater appeal due to the Fujita imagery, as a whole, not being all one would hope for on a poster for this title.

This poster was printed in two pieces and has been mounted to linen. There was fold separation down the left side on the fold just to the outside box containing the Brando image. There was some other area of fold wear, primarily in the white field around the image and the credits. There was airbrush work done to a significant portion of the white field. The poster displays well, but the image slightly lifts from the linen in the upper left corner.

A box-office hit, a critical smash and an Academy-Award winner, Francis Ford Coppola's engrossing adaptation of Mario Puzo's novel is justifiably regarded as one of the best movies ever made. As well as launching Al Pacino - as Michael Corleone, the youngest son in a Mafia family who rises to take over a crime empire - it also revived the career of Marlon Brando (as his father) and redefined the gangster genre.

Estimate: $400 - 800
