"SURVIVAL OF ST. JOAN" ORIGINAL BROADWAY POSTER BY DAVID EDWARD BYRD

Description

"THE SURVIVAL OF ST. JOAN" ORIGINAL OFF-BROADWAY ROCK OPERA THEATRE WINDOW CARD BY DAVID EDWARD BYRD
1970
AN ORIGINAL THEATRE "WINDOW CARD" FOR THE  OFF BROADWAY CULT ROCK OPERA "THE SURVIVAL OF ST. JOAN" WITH MUSIC BY SMOKE RISE AND MUSICAL DIRECTOR STEPHEN SCHWARTZ.("WICKED"). THIS POSTER WAS DESIGNED BY THE BRILLIANT DAVID EDWARD BYRD.  IF YOU DONT KNOW THIS PROLIFIC POSTER DESIGNER, PLEASE GOOGLE HIS NAME.  THIS POSTER, LIKE "FOLLIES" AND "GODSPELL",  IS  PART OF WHAT HE CALLS HIS "HEAD SERIES". THE CRAZY PREMISE OF THE OPERA WAS THAT ST. JOAN SURVIVED BURNING AT THE STAKE .   PLEASE NOTE THE COMPLETE LACK OF CREDITS EXCEPT THE TAG PHRASE "A MEDIEVAL ROCK OPERA"  IT PLAYED THE (OFF) OFF BROADWAY ANDERSON THEATRE FOR ONLY 16 PERFORMANCES.  HOWEVER DAVID EDWARD BYRD'S WONDERFULLY BIZARRE POSTER IS VERY RARE, AND EVOKES THE STYLE OF POSTER ART AND IMAGES HE AND OTHERS CREATED FOR THE GREAT HARD METAL AND ROCK ARTISTS AND BANDS OF THAT ERA.  THIS "ST. JOAN" WINDOW CARD IS PRINTED ON HEAVY CARDBOARD STOCK AND MEASURES 14" X 22"AND IS IN VERY FINE+ CONDITION, WITH ONLY MINOR STAINING ON THE TOP RIGHT EDGE WHICH DOES NOT INTERFERE WITH THE ART AT ALL.  IF PROPERLY MATTED THE STAIN WOULD BE MASKED.                                                           GREAT COLLECTIBLE DAVID EDWARD BYRD POSTER ART!

"BURNING A WITCH"
never live with regret"..
Hello.  By way of introduction and for your information, I am TMQPOSTERS.
Everything that you will see on my EBay Selling List is from my personal private collection.  I started collecting NEW and VINTAGE ORIGINAL MOVIE POSTERS (especially GONE WITH THE WIND,  STAR WARS,
all SPIELBERG, DISNEY, ACADEMY AWARD WINNERS, BATMAN, LORD OF THE RINGS, HARRY POTTER, BROADWAY,
CLASSIC,
CULT, CAMP, TRASH, ETC!!!) since I was a 27 year old in 1976 when I moved and lived in NYC.
All the posters (even the originally folded ones) have been rolled in tubes and stored in a temperature controlled environment from the time I purchased each one.
Needless to say, it is a diverse and eclectic collection of over 650 POSTERS.   I also collected ANIMATION ART, specifically ORIGINAL DISNEY HAND PAINTED PRODUCTION BACKGROUND PAINTINGS that went under camera in the filming of Disney movies.  I will not knowingly misrepresent the pieces I put on EBay.
All the photographs you see of my posters and art are ones that I have taken, not downloaded from other online sites. I will gladly answer all questions, discuss shipping, etc.
Whether you're a fan, collector, dealer, and/or looking for an investment piece, this is a great opportunity..
The Movie and Theatre Posters and Animation Art I offer will be interesting, diverse, original and in many cases a rare opportunity for any collector.  Yes, some are Museum quality pieces, or obviously will be.
I am now 6
5
years old, downsizing, and divesting myself of this collection just as enthusiastically as when I started accumulating this wonderful brilliant trash. Thanks for your interest.
And wait till you see what will be "COMING SOON TO A THEATRE NEAR YOU!!!"
Too often in life we regret not doing things that we are able to do, for whatever reason, when we are presented with the opportunity to do so.  I say “Never live with regret”.
