I added this swell filmplakatkarten for “Stand and Deliver” to my collection of standardized testing ephemera. I paid a dollar for it on eBay, and the seller threw in a card for an unrelated Willem Dafoe movie from the 1980s. Regular readers already know that Willem Dafoe is a national treasure, so that’s pretty cool.
Also pictured is my copy of Jay Mathews’ book about Escalante. If you are a fan of the movie and haven’t read the book, it is worth seeking out. If it was a little easier to find in 2025, I would make it the next selection of the “Almost-a-Real-Thing Standardized Testing Book Club.”
