A truly one-of-a-kind piece of cinematic history! This oversized 19 ½ ” x 29″ studio photo was distributed by 20th Century Fox to select theaters in 1972, capturing the thrilling scene of Roddy McDowall’s double falling, while Carol Lynley, Ernest Borgnine and Red Buttons, cling to the side – a moment rarely seen in other promotional material. For collectors and fans of Irwin Allen’s legendary disaster films, this is an extremely rare studio-issued photographic display from the original 1972 theatrical release of The Poseidon Adventure. Measuring approximately 19 ½ ” x 29″, this oversized glossy photo was distributed by 20th Century Fox to select first-run theaters for lobby display, with the studio stamp on the reverse confirming its authenticity. Preserved by a lifelong collector of Poseidon Adventure memorabilia, who saw the film at age six and has followed its legacy for decades, including meeting original cast and crew members. Never seen another example of this studio-issued blow-up. This item is not just a collectible; it is a piece of cinematic history, representing the grand theatrical experience of the early 1970s and the passionate fan culture that endures to this day. Excellent overall; glossy surface intact. Studio-stamped reverse clearly legible. Part of a lifelong collection of Poseidon Adventure memorabilia. Likely displayed in select theaters during the original release. The poster does not feel like normal poster backing. It is on glossy and thick, almost card stock feel to the poster. A very unique piece. A rare opportunity to own a piece of the original theatrical experience and the enduring legacy of a beloved film.
