A guaranteed original and framed 11x14 lobby card from 1971 for Lee H. Katzin's car racing thriller "Le Mans", also released as "The 24 Hours of Le Mans".
Featuring footage captured during the real-life 1970 race, Le Mans tells the fictional story of Porsche racing driver Michael Delaney (Steve McQueen). With death and danger seemingly all around, should he quit or go for a Porsche win at Le Mans?
The addictive nature of racing portrayed in the film mirrors life. McQueen was obsessed with creating a true racing film and its production took a significant toll on him and those around him. A 2015 documentary, Steve McQueen : The Man and Le Mans, tells this incredible story.
This superb lobby card, showing McQueen concentrating at the wheel of his sports car, was used in the foyer of a U.S. movie theater at the time of the film's release.
It is in wonderful condition and has been framed by us in a black ayous wood frame with an iced white mount, protective barrier board and crystal clear Perspex glazing. As our photos show, it will look amazing on display!
By the way, Steve McQueen considered becoming a professional racing driver. In 1961 he drove a Mini at a British Touring Car race at Brands Hatch, finishing third!
We only sell guaranteed original movie posters. We do not sell reproductions.
Note: This lobby card is priced framed. Photos showing 'in room' images are for illustration only. Please check our hi-res images and the sizing information shown above.

Original Poster Buying Guide
Authenticity & Original Posters
Art of the Movies specialises exclusively in authentic original cinema posters issued for theatrical release. These are not modern reproductions or decorative reprints.
Original posters were produced in limited numbers for cinemas to promote films during their initial release. As a result, surviving examples have become highly collectible artefacts of film history.
Each poster offered on this site is an authentic vintage piece created for cinema exhibition and carefully selected for collectors and film enthusiasts.
Condition & Age
Vintage cinema posters were working promotional materials used by theatres and distributors. As such, signs of age and handling are normal and form part of their character.
Condition is carefully assessed for each poster and reflected in the description. Where relevant, notes may include details such as light handling wear, fold lines from original cinema distribution, or minor edge wear.
Any significant restoration or conservation work will always be clearly stated.
Poster Formats & Dimensions
Original cinema posters were produced in a variety of standard formats depending on the country and era of release.
Common formats include UK Quad, US One Sheet and other theatrical display sizes. Exact dimensions for each poster are provided in the product details where relevant.
These historic formats are part of the distinctive character of original film advertising.
Framing Options
Many posters can be supplied professionally framed as an optional extra.
Framing is carried out using archival-quality materials designed to protect and display vintage paper safely. Frames are prepared to complement the artwork while maintaining a clean, gallery-style presentation.
Where framing is available, it can be selected before purchase.
Packaging & Delivery
Posters are carefully packaged to ensure safe delivery.
Unframed posters are typically shipped rolled safely packaged within our extra-thick custom-made tubes. Framed pieces are securely boxed using protective materials to minimise movement during transit.
Orders are dispatched with tracking where available.
