Description

Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (Columbia, 1964). Very Fine on Linen. Three Sheet (41.5" X 78") Tomi Ungerer Artwork.
In Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb, a masterful political satire, Stanley Kubrick pushes his recurring theme of the absurdity of war to its ultimate conclusion with the accidental launch of World War III. Widely regarded as a masterpiece of dark humor, the film features one of cinema's finest ensembles, including Peter Sellers in multiple roles, Keenan Wynn, Sterling Hayden, George C. Scott, James Earl Jones, and the unforgettable Slim Pickens as the atom-bomb-riding cowboy. This striking three sheet poster is an ideal showcase for illustrator Tomi Ungerer's remarkable artwork for the film. Expert airbrushing and precise touchup have been thoughtfully applied to address fold wear, creases, fold and crossfold separations, a few small chips and tears, and minor staining within the uppermost center plane, resulting in an impressive presentation.
