Size: US 24-Sheet (~ 9' x 20')
Artist/Illustrator: Bob Peak
Designer: Spiros Angelikas
Release Year: 1979
Region: Unknown
Notes:

  • Tagline Note: No comparison, top left. Two tags were used on this poster art in all its formats ("The human adventure is just beginning" and "There is no comparison").
  • This 24-sheet poster measures roughly 9' x 20' (actual 104" x 232" / 2.6m x 5.9m) and was printed in eight separate panels, which would be assembled and pasted together to form a roadside billboard. If you look closely at the image, you can see slight mis-alignments where the various printed panels intersect.
  • A nearly identical image to this smaller billboard.
  • See this post for a closer look at this artwork including text-free images, variants, and preliminary sketches.
