The Longest Day (20th Century Fox, 1962).

The Longest Day (20th Century Fox, 1962). British Quad (30" X 40"). This massive, star-studded recreation of the D-Day invasion was one of the first war films to depict the enemy speaking in their own language (with subtitles provided), and utilized as many authentic locations as was possible. It was a pet project for producer Darryl F. Zanuk, and his faith was rewarded by the film's huge success, which helped offset the costs of Cleopatra, which was being filmed concurrently. John Wayne heads up the huge cast, which also includes Richard Burton, Eddie Albert, Red Buttons, Sean Connery, Henry Fonda, Mel Ferrer, Robert Mitchum, Roddy McDowall, Rod Steiger, and many more. This evocative, unrestored British quad features a moody shot out the window of a bunker as the invasion begins. The sheet is in superb condition, with corner creases and a small chip at the bottom centerfold being the only flaws of note. Declare victory with this stunning poster. Very Fine.

Important notice: Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 100-110 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Since eBay bids are not shown to us until we open the lot on the floor, we treat those bids just like floor bids. In most cases the floor responds before the eBay bid is presented to us, due to Internet lag time, so for consistency we have made it a policy that floor bids are always considered first over tie eBay live bids. Also please note that all Heritage lots purchased through eBay Live carry a 22.50% Buyer's Premium with a $9 minimum Buyer's Premium. Please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions before you bid. This lot is being auctioned in conjunction with a live floor auction by Heritage Auctions. All final auction and invoice information will be supplied by Heritage Auctions, and all other information should be considered preliminary. Lot:85983
