Putting the “Art" in Movie Poster Art

from The Stuff Dreams Are Made Of · host The Stuff Dreams Are Made Of

Sure we all love the cool Blade Runner poster on our wall, but did you ever wonder who actually painted it?  The answer may surprise you as Ryan and David take you into the world of movie poster original art collecting. Learn all about the golden age of movie posters, how they were commissioned by the studios: the prelims and comps, the foreign editions and how to collect them all.  Hear about treasures from Ryan and David’s personal collection: Conan the Barbarian by Casaro, Star Wars by Jung, and, yes, even Blade Runner -- one by John Alvin and another by Drew Struzan.  Plus meet author and collector Jimmy Willis and hear about his collection of almost one thousand pieces of original poster art including works by Frazetta, MAC, and Frank McCarthy.
