This poster features the star child floating in an iris. The release of the 70 mm film helped to make it a commercial and critical success. As this poster was designed for 'wild' pasting only unused posters could have survived. On top of this fewer were printed as they were only used in New York City and other metropolitan areas." from Sothebys "2001: A Space Odyssey is a 1968 epic science fiction film produced and directed by Stanley Kubrick. The screenplay was written by Kubrick and science fiction author Arthur C. Clarke and was inspired by Clarke's 1951 short story "The Sentinel" and other short stories by Clarke. Clarke also developed a novelisation of the film which was released after the film's release and in part written concurrently with the screenplay. The film stars Keir Dullea Gary Lockwood William Sylvester and Douglas Rain and follows a voyage to Jupiter with the sentient supercomputer HAL after the discovery of an alien monolith. " from Wikipedia; B&W Illustrations; Stanley Kubrick's landmark science fiction film celebrates its 50th anniversary this year. It is still considered one of the most influential sci-fi films of all time. Surprisingly the initial release of the film was not a huge success. . MGM unknown
