Please check this U.S 1 Sheet movie poster for the 1968 action war thriller DARK OF THE SUN. Fantastic bold action illustration by American poster artist Frank McCarthy! This 1 sheet poster grades in Very Good condition. We point out a hole near the art area, above the arm of the guy with the chainsaw and the top copy, on the left. The top cross fold shows an under 1/2" separation of the paper, shown in the 7th picture. The poster exhibits strong color. Guaranteed original and genuine from 1968, DARK OF THE SUN came out prior to the MPAA's rating system being put into practice, so the poster carries the "Suggested for Mature Audiences" advisory. Issued by the National Screen Service, number 68/14. The poster has been respectfully handled, though there are a few small edge tears and dings. We ask you to examine each photo carefully. Guaranteed original, the verso of this poster has a light red stamp with title and NSS number, but fortunately it doesn't bleed through the paper to the front. This 1 sheet was printed single sided, folded at the factory and is untrimmed at 27"x41", all standard for a U.S. 1 sheet movie poster from the 1960s.

Condition Grades

Mint - An unused poster, almost as pristine as when initially printed. Exceedingly difficult grade to achieve.

Near Mint - Unused or carefully used, but showing some minor signs of age or storage wear. The folds on the poster should be clean - that is standard and not considered a flaw for pre-1980's movie posters.

Very Fine - Movie poster shows minimal signs of wear and usage with no pin holes, fold damage or paper loss. The image area should be clean and bright, the paper supple, not brittle.

Fine - A poster in average used condition. Movie poster might show pinholes in the corners, edge wear, small tears on edges or image area and minor discoloration.

Very Good - Below average condition due to being heavily used, but with little paper loss. Paper may show slight stains, soiling and larger pinholes in corners and small holes in the image area proper. Movie poster may also have defects such as light ink markings, tape on the back of the paper and substantial border damage. A poster in this category may be a restoration candidate.

Good - A very heavily used, worn and brittle movie poster. Paper may be missing chunks of paper, show heavy dirt, water stains and/or significant discoloration.

Fair - Heavily used as above with tape on verso or on front of poster with a substantial number of holes in poster, especially in image area.

Poor - Poster may have substantial paper and L loss. A poster that has been heavily water damaged, or has been heavily stained. A poster with foreign material in substantial amounts, such as paint or marker on front or back of the paper. A dry mounted movie poster or one that has been laminated would fall into this category.
