U.S. premiere movie ad for 1979 "Apocalypse Now"...



Item # 707325

August 13, 1979

THE VILLAGE VOICE (weekly), Greenwich Village, New York, Aug. 13, 1979

* "Apocalypse Now" U.S. premiere movie advertisement
* American epic war film - Francis Ford Coppola
* Marlon Brando - Robert Duvall - Martin Sheen


The back page has a nice advertisement for "Apocalypse Now" for it's U.S. premiere in Manhattan. This ad is for the very first showing of the film. (opening day)
I suspect this to be an extremely rare item because their was really no reason to save it at the time.
It is worth noting that "The Village Voice" was an American news and culture paper, known for being the country's first alternative newsweekly. Founded in 1955, the Voice began as a platform for the creative community of New York City.
Complete with 112 pages, one fold across the center, nice condition.

Provenance note: This issue comes from The Village Voice's own archives, part of their in-house collection used to create their digital archive. Rare as such.
