Lot Essay

The most sought after poster from the U.S. campaign for War Of The Worlds is the style B U.S. half-sheet. It is the only poster from the original campaign which depicts the flying saucers and is similar to the British quad offered here but pales by comparison. The full artwork and rich colours of this extremely rare quad, a stone lithograph, make it generally considered to be the best poster for this film.
