The Searchers Poster

A 2011 licensed screenprint poster (NB. 17"x 26") for the seminal John Wayne western "The Searchers" (1956) with artwork by David O'Daniel.

O'Daniel developed an idiosyncratic style, using a brown/gold colour palette, metallic ink effects & intricate patterned details in his compositions. We have several examples currently for sale. This particular poster has been hand-numbered & signed on the lower border. The poster was commissioned for a screening of the film at the Castro Theatre, San Francisco, 4th August 2011. Just 150 of these posters were printed.

This poster is in near mint condition. The poster will be sent rolled with protective paper in a sturdy tube. This is a scarce poster & will NOT be discounted.

The Mondo & associated Alternative Movie Poster (AMP) movement began in the early 2000's & represents a rejection of the "modern" photo-based design method of producing cinema posters. Mondos & AMP's are cinema posters created as art pieces. Generally these have not been made for film marketing purposes but instead are artistic re-interpretations of both classic vintage films & modern movies. Mondo/AMP posters are exceptionally high quality prints, released in strictly limited numbers (invariably sold out on release) & become instant collectables.
