2001: A Space Odyssey (MGM, 1968). Folded, Fine/Very Fine. Six Sheet (77" X 80"). Robert McCall Artwork.
One of the most influential genre films of all time, Stanley Kubrick's sci-fi masterpiece manages to enthrall and perplex audiences even 26 years after the plot's "futuristic" events purported to take place. Humanity discovers a mysterious monolith buried on the Moon, which appears to be a signal from an advanced alien intelligence. A mission aboard the spaceship Discovery One travels to Jupiter to investigate, but the ship's AI, HAL 9000, begins to malfunction and turns against the crew. The film explores humanity's evolution, technology's potential dangers, and the possibility of contact with superior extraterrestrial life. Its groundbreaking visual effects, enigmatic storytelling, and philosophical depth make it a landmark of science fiction, blending awe-inspiring spectacle with meditative reflections on human progress. Printed in four panels and folded as issued, the poster exhibits even toning to the white areas, fold and fold junction separation, edge chips, and surface loss, heavy pinholes, and minor spot staining. There are tape remnants in the blank areas where the panels were previously adhered together. Overall, this impressive large format piece creates a striking impression.
