WESTWORLD ~ U.S. Half-Sheet Poster NSS# 73/254 -~ MGM ~ 1973

This RARE SIZE / RARELY OFFERED / RARE CONDITION poster from the cult-favorite '73 MICHAEL CRICHTON SCI-FI BLOCKBUSTER is in EXCELLENT / FINE CONDITION, with very minor edge and surface wear. Stored flat and out-of-sunlight since the 70s, the colors are rich and unfaded. It's printed on glossy poster stock and has always been ROLLED - NEVER FOLDED: most posters from this film that have been offered from time to time, are (or have been) folded into quarters, creating noticable creases across the entire face of the poster.  This poster DOES NOT have these creases! 

This exciting and popular film about a futuristic amusement park populated by (eventually-malfunctioning) robots is based on a story by best-selling author MICHAEL CRICHTON (who also Directed) and it basically supplied a blueprint for CRICHTON's later mega-hit JURASSIC PARK (a futuristic amusement park which also suffers a breakdown). The poster image shows a partially dismantled YUL BRYNNER / Gunslinger ROBOT , looking dangerous and carrying a six-shooter . Additional images show arriving park guests RICHARD BENJAMIN and JAMES BROLIN and a view of the amusement park's high-tech manned control room. The movie's striking logo is prominently featured on the right.

The poster includes the film's popular catch-lines:

"BOY, HAVE WE GOT A VACATION FOR YOU...

WESTWORLD

...Where Nothing can possibly go w o r n g "

We do not falsify customs forms to mark merchandise values below value or mark items as "gifts" - US and International government regulations prohibit this.
