A guaranteed original UK quad movie poster from the 2023 50th Anniversary release of Robin Hardy's pagan horror movie "The Wicker Man", based on the 1967 novel "Ritual" by David Pinner.

Originally released in 1973, this cult classic stars Edward Woodward as Sergeant Neil Howie, flown to a remote Scottish island to investigate the disappearance of a young girl. Are the islanders, led by Lord Summerisle (Christopher Lee), responsible for her death and is it related to their strange pagan beliefs?

A perfect example of 'folk horror', it is the grandfather of recent hit films such as Midsommar. (Apparently Christopher Lee considered it the best of his well over two hundred films.)

This fantastic movie poster, with incredible artwork by Richey Beckett, was produced for the 2023 50th anniversary release of the film. Produced in very small numbers, you can feel the ink on the paper. Given the small number in the print run, perhaps it was screen printed by hand. A really beautiful poster for this iconic British horror film. 

As our photos show, it will look amazing on the wall of any horror fan!

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

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.
