- Share via
An original Dan Goozee preliminary painting for a 1977 “Star Wars” poster, a one-sheet from the 1954 3-D horror classic “Creature From the Black Lagoon,” a French poster of Jean Cocteau’s 1946 masterpiece “Beauty and the Beast” and a poster from the 1933 Greta Garbo historical drama “Queen Christina” are among the stunning offerings at Bonhams and Turner Classic Movies’ latest auction collaboration, “Picture Perfect: The Art of Movie Posters.” The auction takes place July 20 at Bonhams, 7601 Sunset Blvd.
Though most of these posters are far too pricey for the average die-hard film fan, Bonhams is having four days of auction viewings starting July 16 so you get to see these historical images in person. For more information go to https://www.bonhams.com/auctions/22374/
