But even the Jaegers are proving nearly defenseless in the face ofthe relentless Kaiju. On the verge of defeat, the forces defending mankind haveno choice but to turn to two unlikely heroes - a washed up former pilot(Charlie Hunnam) and an untested trainee (Rinko Kikuchi) - who are teamed todrive a legendary but seemingly obsolete Jaeger from the past.

ImageInformation: A picture speaks a thousand words and form an important part ofthe item description so please take the time to look at all the imagescarefully. All images of the actual item for sale and are photographed undernatural lighting (where possible) and have not been digitally doctored. We donot use stock photos so what you see is what you get. Australian One Sheet movie posters are 27” x 40” not 27” x 41” like their American counter parts andcan vary an inch in length dependent on the printers used to produce them.Modern American posters are now also 27” x 40” but modern posters can also varyby ½” to 1” dependent on the printer used. Australianprinters were under licence to produce the posters as they saw fit forAustralian audiences and many artists did different variations to the Americanone-sheets.The artistswould generally use US poster art or press book images for their inspirationand they would either trace or use their own imagination or a combination ofboth to come up with a new design for the poster. Many vintageone-sheet posters were usually produced using the stone litho process whichproduced rich deep colours but were only printed in limited quantities. It isbelieved that as few as 200 one sheets were printed for films up to 1950. Thisexplains the rarity of the Australian one sheet movie posters. TheAustralian one-sheet movie posters used to be issued folded but now most modernposters are issued rolled and many come directly from the distributors inAmerica as the American one-sheets are also now 27” 40” but can vary slightlyin length size dependent on the distributor and printer used. Many are now alsodouble-sided for use in light boxes.

AboutAustralian Movie Posters:The hand litho process was usually utilized for Australian daybillposters resulting in a rich texture of artwork with subtle toning that wasoften unique to Australia. The artists would generally use US poster art or press book imagesfor their inspiration and they would either trace or use their own imaginationor a combination of both to come up with a design for the poster. The daybillsizes varied considerably from 13" x 30" from the 40s to the mid 60sto 13" x 26" in the 80s. The Australian one-sheets were normally 27”x 40” as compared to the US 27” x 41” one-sheets. Certain firms seem to predominate during certain periods, such asW.E. Smith of Sydney during the 1940s and 1950s. Several other printers like F.Cunninghame & Co. Pty. Ltd. (litho) Sydney, Royelltone Prints Pty. Ltd., and Simmons Ltd. printed older posters but W.E. Smith and Robert Burtonproduced most. During the 70s M.A.P.S started producing movie posters and thereis an overlap where both Robert Burton and M.A.P.S printed some of the sameoriginal posters. Other printers like Brown Prior Anderson in Burwood, Victoria, Australia, also printed some of the B grade and R rated Australian posters and, some of the film distributors like Roadshow produced their own posters. It is important to note that daybills for the original release ofa film often included a lesser duotone and black and white style. In many casesthese are mistakenly referred to as copies or later reissues but they weregenerally released at the same time the full colour versions were issued so arealso originals.
