War Movie Posters.

[history-buff1944]

Good stuff my friend thats for sharing.

 

Here's one a 1962 Korean War movie, Robert Redford, John Saxon, and a rare acting apperance by the later, very well known Producer Sydney Pollack.

 

 

Nice and Rare piece--rare because this movie did not have a wide opening and not much material available to collect. I have a half-sheet poster for: Away All Boats w/ Jeff Chandler, and others. This movie is an early Clint Eastwood appearance as a Med orderly. I dont have a photo of this yet but--it was used in a Theater in Michegan and even has that info printed on it.

"A Bridge Too Far" Long movie, but still one of my favorites.

[trenchbuff]

This movie sparked my interest in WW1 aviation. "The Blue Max"

[trenchbuff]

A different version of "The Blue Max".

Copy of lobby card that came with the DVD. Thanks; History Buff, Trench Buff, Patches and all others; I'm quite over matched.

Here's one for you sailors of the late 60s early 70s, a real period piece, I do believe I should get this from Amazon on DVD.

Found this site for Foreign movie posters, one you will see will be for the Italian ? release of Battleground, the other one is for some WWII marine movie I never heard of, I guess if you look around the site more foreign posters for American War movies will show up.

Checking out the Japanese sites today and came across this beauty

 

The Japanese issue poster for the Sands Of Iwo Jima.

 

One of my least favorite war films ever, only if was as great as this poster leads on to be!

To not like the Sands of Iwo Jima, why.. WHY THATS UNAMERICAN!

[uplandmod]

I know...I know.....but a Iwo Jima film that doesn't have a Stinger doing its thing, a terrier in a lower Knapsack and Medical Brandy just isn't an Iwo Jima Film!

Well it is not a poster but a newspaper add from 1943, I think. something B-17 related I had to have.

Here is a real early one for you. In World War One the American Ambulance Field Service hired a film company to document their work and the efforts of the Lafayette Escadrille. Titled "Our American Boys in the European War", this film was shown throughout the country in an effort to aid in recruiting volunteers and as a means to wake the country up from it's slumber.

Nice posters, I used to collect some; their size can be an issue.

[ADAM2001]

Here's one from 1970 that I'm sure that EVERYBODY remembers...

Nice Lobby Card. Its because of the workmanship in these earlier LCs is why I love collecting them so much. The style used on this one is like ones used in: Unconquered as well as The Buccaneer and War and Peace.

Here is one of my newest purchases: This is a one of a kind Chicago Tribune used publicity still from the original release for: Captain Horatio Hornblower R.N. and is of Gregory Peck as the Captain:

[history-buff1944]

Next of the newest trio is another one of a kind Chicago Tribune used publicity still for the original release for: Major Dundee and is of the late great Charlton Heston as Dundee and is of a scene near the end of the movie when they are fighting the French Lancers before and or while trying to cross back into the USA: Notice that he has Mr. Potts silver enlaid shotgun!
