THE EVIL DEADOne Sheet (27" x 41"); Silk Screen Alternate Poster Signed by Bruce Campbell and Director Sam Raimi (JSA COA)Very Fine- Folded; Artwork by Mike Ditz New Line, 1983This might be the most significant modern horror poster in existence! This special poster was printed exclusively to promote the first-ever 16mm screenings of "Evil Dead" at select theaters in 1980. This poster was created before the film was distributed nationwide in 1981. The poster is printed on a thicker paper stock using a silk screen. It features the iconic artwork by Mike Ditz and the film's original title, "Evil Dead." This is a pre-wide release poster from one of the independent or film festival screenings that Evil Dead underwent before its wide release by New Line Cinema. Notably, this poster bears the New Line logo, indicating it was likely used after the film's acquisition for distribution in early January 1983 but before its wide release in mid-April 1983. Given the few screenings during that period, this poster probably originates from one of two New York shows in May (as indicated by a Variety ad featuring the same artwork). Additionally, it's worth noting that the title is simply "Evil Dead," the name used before New Line rebranded it to "The Evil Dead" and switched to the now-iconic hand-art by M. Skilsky. The scarcity of this early, pre-wide release poster is truly remarkable! Signed by Bruce Campbell and Sam Raimi (Dallas Fort Worth, TX) in 2019. From a Private Collector.This item stands as a unique piece in modern cinema. It is an exceptionally rare release poster of the horror classic, produced by Renaissance Pictures. The poster shows typical signs of wear, such as a small one-inch tear at the bottom center and a minor v-shaped crease near the lower right corner. On the back, "Evil Dead" is written in pencil.Sam Raimi's controversial and hugely successful debut: a low-budget but hugely inventive horror romp, in which five students - including Bruce Campbell's Ash Williams - accidentally unleash a malevolent supernatural force while staying at a remote cabin in the woods. The film spawned a series, still going today with the recently released "Evil Dead Rise."This lot will be auctioned on Thursday, September 12th.

CHINATOWNOriginal Pencil Artwork for Billboard and Color Rendering (Artboard 1: 12.5" x 16.5" &Artboard 2: 15.5" x 15.5")Very Fine; Artwork by Jim Pearsall Paramount, 1974When searching for Jim Pearsall on Google, you can find a movie poster quote that says "Jim Pearsall was a one-hit wonder, but what a hit it was!" While Jim Pearsall worked at the now-defunct movie marketing company, Diener Hauser Bates Advertising, he created the artwork for the 1974 film "Chinatown", which is considered one of the greatest movie posters of all time. Apart from the 1975 B-movie "Breakout" starring Charles Bronson, there are no other credited movie poster commissions for him.The collection includes two art boards for a Billboard Study. The first is an original piece measuring 12.5" x 16.5", created with graphite on tissue and mounted onto a thin artboard using tape. In the lower-left corner, there's a credit block piece measuring 1.5" x 4.5" attached to the tissue, crediting "written by Robert Towne" along with the studio credit. A minor .25" tear in the lower left corner does not affect the artwork. Over time, the tissue has yellowed, yet it still prominently displays a strong pencil illustration of the main characters, Nicholson and Dunaway, and the film's title. This original artwork is likely the work of Jim Pearsall. The second item is a 15.5" x 15.5" color print mounted on an illustration board. Despite significant wear from production, the central art image remains largely unblemished. The artist's signature, "JP" (Jim Pearsall), is in the print in the lower right corner.Jack Nicholson gives one of his best performances as private detective Jake Gittes in Roman Polanski's complex and murky noir mystery, which won an Oscar for its screenplay, by Robert Towne.This lot will be auctioned on Thursday, September 12th.

Elvis plays a version of himself allergic to pretense, providing many of the film's most enjoyable moments. The titular musical number remains among the greatest in silver screen history. Nonetheless, when his co-star Judy Tyler died in a tragic car crash before the film was released, Elvis refused to see it.This lot will be auctioned on Friday, September 13th.

A FINE AND RARE FRENCH QUARTER STRIKING MUSICAL PICTURE CLOCK WITH ANGELUSMAISON WURTEL, PARIS, CIRCA 1860With oil on canvas after David Teniers the younger (1610-90) 'two men playing cards in the kitchen of an Inn' with the composition adapted to incorporate a longcase clock, hinging upwards along with the floral relief moulded gilt composition frame to reveal the internal mechanism comprising four elements; the first a four pillar two train gong striking clock movement of duration of around two weeks with anchor escapement regulated by lenticular bob pendulum and outside countwheel strike on a gong, the frontplate stamped with oval M'ON WURTEL, HORLOGERIE... trademark beneath numbers 743, 9 2, fitted with 1.625 inch circular white enamel Roman numeral dial signed M'ON WURTEL, A PARIS to centre and with steel hands; the second mechanism comprising a separate conforming hour striking train to repeat the hour shortly after the principal movement released via a pivoted detent from the under dial motionwork; the third mechanism released in a similar manner shortly after six o'clock with single barrel and vertical fly driving a pinned wheel to operate the Angelus sequence on a graduated pair of gongs; the fourth a musical mechanism released on the hour and playing a choice of twelve tunes via a 16.5 inch pinned cylinder on a 74 tooth comb, the cylinder mounted on a steel bed stamped with serial number 43418 with indirect chain winding for the large spring barrel opposing fly and controls for tune change/repeat, start/stop and continuous play/hour activation only connected via steel rods to brass pulls positioned to the underside edge of the case, all mounted on the backboard of a shallow box case alongside tune sheet inscribed No. 43418, 12 AIRES to upper margin over manuscript tune list including La fille de Madame Angot, Souvenie de Cock and Mandolinata, the lower margin inscribed Maison WURTEL, Passage Vivienne, 38 et 40, PARIS, the back panel also applied with two additional labels for MAISON WURTEL, E. PIERFORT Suc'r..., and GATTOLLAIT along with a modern brass plaque explaining the function of the plungers for the music mechanism.The image 63.5cm (25ins) by 79.5cm (31.25ins); the case 83cm (32.75ins) high, 99cm (39ins) wide, 19cm (7.5ins) deep. Provenance:From the private collection of a professional sportsman and commentator. Maison Wurtel was founded by Guillaume-Ferdinand Wurtel in around 1837 when he advertised as working from 38-40 Passage Vivienne, Paris. Three years later he was listed in a trade directory as a horological maker and seller offering picture clocks as well as a supplier of concave glasses. In 1841 a magazine, 'La Presse', recommended 'La Maison Wurtel' to their readers informing them that they can buy watches, table clocks, picture clocks, music boxes, alarm clocks and 'objects of fantasy'. In 1856 they exhibited at the 'Exposition of Delepine of Paris' but unfortunately were positioned within the scientific instrument section to the bafflement of visitors. Maison Wurtel were known to have sourced their clock movements form Japy Freres and the musical mechanism within the present lot can be attributed to Auguste L'Epee of Saint-Suzanne, Doubs, France (who worked from 1839 until the end of the century). The Angelus mechanism is a particularly rare feature which traditionally served to accompany the recital of the Angelus prayer in Roman Catholicism. Condition Report: The clock, striking and angelus mechanisms are all in relatively clean original working condition with the various levers and detents present. The musical mechanism is also in relatively clean working condition with no visible losses to the teeth or noticeable corrosion issues. The clock was in use in the vendor's home when consigned however due to the nature of the item some adjustment may be required to ensure all the features operate as an when they should once the picture is hung securely on the wall. The canvas is in good condition with no visible tears or holes of noticeable repairs. The frame is in fine condition with good gilding throughout. The pine back box has some slight wear/bumps (most noticeable to the back corners) as well as other relatively minor age related faults - otherwise is in very good original condition.Clock is complete with pendulum and two winding keys.

A FRENCH BLUE CHAMPLEVE ENAMELLED CARRIAGE CLOCKATTRIBUTED TO THE COUAILLIET FAMILY, SAINT-NICHOLAS-D' ALIERMONT, CIRCA 1900The eight-day two train gong striking movement with replaced platform lever escapement regulated by sprung bimetallic balance, stamped 177 to the lower inside edge of the frontplate and with Couaillet-pattern stamped hand-setting arrow to backplate, the dial with cobalt blue and gilt foliate scroll engraved centre within silvered chapter ring incorporating vertical Arabic numerals, with blued steel spade hands within rectangular mask further decorated with symmetrical bird inhabited gilt foliate scrollwork onto a blue enamel ground, the bevel-glazed case with enamelled square section hinged baton handle over conforming foliate scroll and cobalt blue decorated frieze and square section uprights, the rear with pin-hinged door, on conforming decorated skirt base with small squab-type feet; with original tooled red Morocco leather covered protective case with two-part opening front to reveal a silk-lined interior.The clock 13cm (5ins) high with handle down, 8cm (3.125ins) wide, 7cm (2.75ins) deep; the case 16.5cm (6.5ins) high, 10.5cm (4.125ins) wide, 9.5cm (3.75ins) deep. The hand-setting arrow stamp to the movement backplate of the first item in the current lot conforms to that used by the Couaillet family as illustrated in Allix, Charles and Bonnert, Peter CARRIAGE CLOCKS Their history and development on page 435. Couaillet Freres are discussed by Leigh Extence in his article The Carriage Clock Makers of Saint-Nicolas-d'Aliermont published in National Association of Watch & Clock Collectors Bulletin, 2020; where they are described as being one of the most prolific makers of carriage clocks operating from the horological town of Saint-Nicolas-d'Aliermont (near Dieppe) during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. In 1885 Armand Couaillet was employed by the prominent maker Albert Villon, but in 1892 he and his brothers Denis and Ernest set up their own workshops in the centre of the town as Couaillet freres. They increased the size of the concern when buying the house and workshops of Delépine-Barrois across the road in 1912. Condition Report: The movement is reasonably clean; the going train is currently running however the strike train is not presently operational and is jamming the hands. The spring is sound and there is no obvious visible faults hence probably due to gummed-up oil. As catalogued the escapement platform is a replacement. The dial is in fine condition with only very slight mellowing to the silvering of the chapter ring evident. The case is in very good original condition with no visible chips to the glasses. The front frieze has slight distortion (waviness) to the enamelled section and a couple of very small losses to the enamel otherwise faults are very much limited to a few very small enamel losses and slight patchy oxidation/mellowing to the finish. The case has incomplete carrying strap and wear around the lip of the base most noticeably to the rear as well as general overall light rubbing/scuffing/wear. The interior has some degradation/splitting to the silk lining otherwise is generally sound. Clock has a winding key. Condition Report Disclaimer
