YANKS

Original British 30 inch x 40 inch Quad Poster for the 1979 John Schlesinger World War II Drama YANKS, screenplay and story by Colin Welland and starring Richard Gere, Lisa Eichhorn, Vanessa Redgrave, William Devane, Rachel Roberts and Joan Hickson.

The film depicts the relationships between American soldiers stationed in semi-rural England and the local population during the build-up to Operation Overlord in 1944. In particular, three romances between US service personnel and local women are shown, in order to explore the effects of the cultural differences between the brash GIs or “Yanks” and the more reserved British population.

The poster is in very good folded condition.
