Title: Clockwork Orange UK Quad
Post by: wattsy04 on September 08, 2016, 02:38:32 AM
Hi

I've collected posters all my life however one poster I've always wanted but don't have a great deal of knowledge on is the Clockwork Orange UK Quad. I know these were bootlegged quite a lot however are there any obvious signs of a fake?

What is the finish of the poster Matt, glossy?
Any distinguishing marks?
Were they all folded?

Thank for your help

thanks very much for the reply.  I forgot to say how do you tell the difference between a 1971 original release and a 1980s re release. they seem to have the same image and some rolled copies seem to exist.

thanks
Paul

There is indeed a full size (30x40) repro -- but it's on modern glossy stock and the print is blurry in person.

The more common, higher print quality repro is undersized. I think it's 27x40 -- don't believe sellers who say they are trimmed originals.
