A guaranteed original Australian Day Bill movie poster from 1986 for Rob Reiner's incredible teenage adventure "Stand By Me", based on Stephen King's 1982 short-story "The Body".

Starring Wil Wheaton, River Phoenix, Corey Feldman, Jerry O'Connell and Kiefer Sutherland, this sensational film tells the story of four teenage friends from a sleepy Oregon town. When a local boy goes missing, the friends decide to become heroes and set off to find the body.

The cast are all fantastic, but it is Phoenix' 'old before his years' portrayal of troubled Chris Chambers that steals the show. An amazing performance from a young actor taken too early.

Critically acclaimed as one of the best films from the 1980's and nominated for the Best Adapted Screenplay Oscar, this is one of our favourite films. We adore it.

We have been looking for posters for the movie for years and are absolutely thrilled to have found a few from Australia. As our photos show, they are in fantastic condition and will look amazing framed and on display!

By the way, the Stand By Me title (borrowed from the Ben E. King song that appears on the film's soundtrack) came about as the producers were worried The Body sounded like a horror (or perhaps even a porno) film!

We only sell guaranteed original movie posters. We do not sell reproductions.

Note: This movie poster is priced unframed. Photos showing framed and '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 theatrical posters were produced to promote genuine cinema releases and re-releases. 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.
