US one sheet poster by an unknown designer for the 1997 spy comedy film Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery. The film is directed by Jay Roach and stars Mike Myers in a dual role as the titular Austin Powers and his arch-enemy Dr. Evil. It is the first film in the Austin Powers series.

The film’s title and tagline are set in Anzeigen Grotesk — potentially using the digital version from Linotype. The distorted psychedelic text occupying the rest of the poster is based on a type which was originally known as Scorpio or Hoopla, but is also known under various other aliases in digital form, such as BellBottom, Groovy, Balloon or Doobie.
