"A world inside the computer where man has never been…"

A guaranteed original Japanese 'B2' movie poster from 1982 for Disney's sci-fi classic "TRON".

Starring Jeff Bridges ("Kevin Flynn"), as a former game designer for ENCOM. While attempting to hack in to the ENCOM mainframe, Flynn is digitised and beamed in to the computer, having to play a number of games and eventually destroy the ENCOM Master Control Program (MCP) in order to escape.

Perhaps underestimated at the time of its release, TRON was recognised fourteen years later with a special Academy Award for Technical Achievement.

This absolutely fantastic movie poster has never been folded and (as our photos show) is in lovely condition with just a few signs of previous handling. It carries a fantastic Japanese photo montage that we haven't seen used on any Western posters. A super smaller format poster for the sci-fi and computer fan!

For those that didn't start computer programming in the late 1970s / early 1980s, TRON is a command used to provide information to help debug computer programs. A real technological hero! The release of the film coincided with the explosion of the home computer market. For many, now middle-aged, "TRON" provided the perfect sci-fi adventure version of the many hours sat coding (and debugging) in a bedroom. An iconic poster.

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.
