A great selection of three assorted posters and Lobby Cards for one of the most collected action-adventure war films ever made, Brian G. Hutton's Where Eagles Dare (1968). All three posters show action-packed artwork and fantastic depictions of Richard Burton (Maj. John Smith/Maj. Johann Schmidt), Clint Eastwood (Lt. Morris Schaffer) and Mary Ure (Mary Ellison), the movie's three main stars. The lot comprises a French Grande and Italian Locandina (both created for a 1970s re-release), a first year of release Yugoslavian poster and a set of eight Mexican Lobby Cards.
