Original U.S. One-Sheet Poster Folded Very Fine
Original Paramount Pictures One Sheet Poster (27x41), folded, for the Steven Spielberg adventure classic, RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK (1981) starring Harrison Ford, Karen Allen, and Paul Freeman. Based on a story by George Lucas, this homage to adventure comics of the 1930s has more energy than three action movies put together. Harrison Ford delivers a memorable performance as the renowned archeologist Dr. Indiana Jones, who is hired by the U.S. government to find the lost Ark of the Covenant, which is believed to carry an incredibly powerful energy, before the Nazis find it. The film was nominated for nine Academy Awards including Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Cinematography. It won five Oscars including a Special Achievement Award for sound effects editing. This one sheet is for the first release of the film in 1981. There are two one sheets considered original posters for this film. Another poster was printed in 1982, and is sometimes called a re-release. We do not view the 1982 poster as a re-release poster, however, as the film played widely over a period of two years or so. MovieArt Austin guarantees that this poster is an authentic U.S. one sheet poster for this film. MovieArt Austin will sell no reproductions.
