A guaranteed original U.K. quad movie poster from the 2024 restored 4K release of Charles Crichton's Ealing Studio comedy classic "The Lavender Hill Mob" starring  Alec Guinness, Stanley Holloway, Sidney James, Alfie Bass, Marjorie Fielding and Audrey Hepburn.

When a conscientious bank clerk and an artist concoct a plan to steal a gold bullion shipment, can they pull it off, successfully smuggle their swag out of the country and then enjoy a life of luxury?

Winner of the Best Story Oscar, The Lavender Hill Mob was voted the 17th greatest film of all time by the British Film Institute and is also recognised by the Vatican Film List as 'Art'! 

This wonderful movie poster was produced by Studio Canal to support the 2024 release of a 4K restoration of the film, produced using a 35mm duplicating positive as the original negative was unavailable.

With original artwork by Matt Griffin, this superb double-sided movie poster has never been folded and as our photos show, is in wonderful condition with very few signs of its use in a U.K. cinema. 

The March 2024 release was relatively limited and there aren't many of these posters around. We love it!

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

Note: This 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 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.
