It tells the story of a psychiatrist (Burton) who investigates the savage blinding of six horses by a shy and unassuming stable boy (Firth). Burton, Firth, and playwright and screenwriter Peter Shaffer all received Academy Award nominations. Both of these one sheet posters are in very fine plus condition. The standard one sheet has artwork by Bob Peak.

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

Original Polish Poster (26×38) for the Michael Cacoyannis spoof, THE DAY THE FISH CAME OUT (1967) starring Tom Courtenay, Sam Wanamaker, Colin Blakely, Candice Bergen and Ian Ogilvy. Some atomic weapons are accidentally unloaded in flight near a primitive Greek island. The pilots of the plane are sent in on reconnaissance, the townspeople behave bizarrely, the tourist are restless, Gays seem to be everywhere and Candice Bergen is blonde and tan! The poster design features a stunning primitive image of a two-headed fish, one colorful and alive, the other black and dripping with decay. Art on this poster is by Jerzy Flisak. Condition is very good. Could use linen backing.

Later, in London,he is offered a chance to return to the country to help foment a military coup. He accepts but has an agenda all his own. The artwork on this poster is a shocking and bold realization of a pit bull, abstractly and monstrously rendered, covered in blood.. Art is by Waldemar Swierzy. Very Fine.
