BID PER WHAT YOU SEE IN THE PHOTO, NOT THE AI GENERATED TITLES AND DESCRIPTIONS! 1980 American Raspberry Original Theatrical Movie Poster
This original theatrical movie poster is for the 1980 film American Raspberry, a production released by the Cannon Releasing Corporation. The poster features a satirical illustration of the Statue of Liberty with a laughing facial expression and a crown stylized as a film strip, set against a background depicting a faint New York City skyline. Promotional copy on the poster includes the taglines You’ll wonder where the censor went… and This movie is rated bonkers. Under 17 must be accompanied by a mature chimpanzee. A comprehensive credit block in the lower right corner identifies executive producer Robin French, music by Ken Lauber, written by Stephen Feinberg, John Baskin, Roger Shulman, and Bradley R. Swirnoff, produced by Marc Trabulus, and directed by Bradley R. Swirnoff. The poster includes the stylized hexagonal Cannon Films logo and a standard Motion Picture Association of America R rating box. A copyright line at the bottom left reads © 1980 CANNON RELEASING CORPORATION.
Condition report:
The poster is in good vintage condition, exhibiting standard horizontal and vertical factory fold lines typical for theatrical posters of this era. There is minor evidence of handling and light edge wear consistent with its age and intended promotional use. The paper retains a glossy finish and the colors remain vibrant.
