Terry Gilliam Baron Munchausen Stickers

Baron Munchausen is a fictional German nobleman created by the German writer Rudolf Erich Raspe in his 1785 book Baron Munchausen's Narrative of his Marvellous Travels and Campaigns in Russia. The character is loosely based on a real baron, Hieronymus Karl Friedrich, Freiherr von Münchhausen. The film is based on the tall tales about the 18th-century German nobleman Baron Munchausen and his wartime exploits against the Ottoman Empire.

The character of 'Baron Munchausen' is best known from the movie of the same name directed by Terry Gilliam in 1988. However there are several film versions (all have large cult followings) of the circa 1785 stories and many versions of the books. In this montage I have illustrated some of the best known stories for the Barons many fans.
