ROCKY II

One Sheet (27" x 41"); Rematch Style From the David Frangioni Collection
Very Fine+ Folded
United Artists, 1979

Provenance: David Frangioni is a published author, music businessman, producer, technologist, engineer, philanthropist, and drummer. He has worked with Aerosmith, Shakira, Ringo Starr, Ozzy Osbourne, Robbie Williams, and hundreds more. He is CEO of Modern Drummer Magazine and has several books published, including Clint Eastwood: Icon: The Essential Film Art Collection and Crash: The World's Greatest Drum Kits, both by Insight Editions. Frangioni is considered one of the world's most prominent and knowledgeable collectors of Clint Eastwood memorabilia and boasts an enviable archive of movie posters and memorabilia.

This is an interesting piece of movie advertising for the Sylvester Stallone boxing drama, with the poster designed to look like a genuine boxing promotional poster. Dubbed the "Rematch of the Century", it features the challenger Rocky Balboa vs the champion Apollo Creed. This example is folded with bright whites and minor wear on one fold and an MGM/UA snipe over the United Artists logo.
