More about this item:

Probably the most famous of all British Sex-Comedy film Posters.  Chantrell demonstrated his commercial instincts with this Poster, elevating Ms Millington to a starring position (left hand side).  Please see the photo props that Chantrell used in creating the Poster too (image included below) which is being sold separately.  For an exhaustive introduction to the film, please see Simon Sheridan's "Keeping The British End Up" (2001) & his book about Mary Millington entitled "Come Play With Me" (1999).  The film was a huge commercial success, running for 4 years non-stop at London's Classic Moulin.  The allure of Chantrell's artwork, the popularity of the film & the presence of cult figure, Mary Millington, all make this a very collectable piece & a title that has sold previously at Christies Film Poster auctions.  This particular example is probably as good a copy as you are ever likely to find.  Being Chantrell's proof copy, the Poster is in scarce unfolded format & apart from some minor edge creasing, it is in near Mint condition.
