Original 1975 U.S. release 11" x 14" Lobby Card set of 8 color cards from the sci-fi classic: "ROLLERBALL" starring James Caan, John Houseman, Maud Adams, John Beck & Pamela Hensley. All cards have the code: 75/20 in the lower right corners.
Brief Synopsis: The year is 2018. There is no crime and there are no more wars. Corporations are now the leaders of the world, as well as the controllers of the people. A violent futuristic game known as Rollerball is now the recreational sport of the world, with teams representing various areas competing for the title of champion. The defending championship team, the Houston team led by the determined ten-year veteran Johnathan E., are looking to repeat as champions. However, Bartholomew, the sinister corporate head, wants Johnathan to retire, even though he is the most respected athlete of his time. Johnathan's rebellious quest will not come out with complications, both for him and his teammates, after he decides to continue playing despite Bartholomew's threats.
This classic lobby card set is in FINE condition. There are NO creases (except card # 7), NO tears, image areas are crisp and vibrant, and all the cards have beautiful color gloss. However, as these are theatrically used cards, they do have flaws: Card # 1 has a tiny circular censorship stamp above the "R" and some writing on the back of the card (not visible on the front). Card # 3 has a number of tiny pinholes in each corner. Card # 4 has a tiny circular censorship stamp above the "R" and a number of tiny pinholes in each corner. Card # 5 has a tiny circular censorship stamp above the "R" and a number of tiny pinholes in each corner. Card # 6 has a tiny circular censorship stamp above the "R" and a number of tiny pinholes in each corner. Card # 7 has a vertical crease along the silver border, a tiny circular censorship stamp above the "R" and a number of tiny pinholes in each corner. Card # 8 has a tiny circular censorship stamp above the "R" and a number of tiny pinholes in each corner.
