This is an issued stock certificate from The Cannon Group, Inc., dated in the 1980s. It features a clean blue layout with engraved borders, handwritten shareholder details, cancellation holes, and a striking gold foil vignette of the Cannon logo—a bold design choice that mirrored the company's public ambitions.
Founded in the 1960s and transformed in 1979 when acquired by Israeli filmmakers Menahem Golan and Yoram Globus, The Cannon Group became one of the most prolific independent studios of the 1980s. It gained attention not through critical acclaim, but by flooding the global market with low-to-mid-budget films at astonishing speed. Cannon produced and distributed hundreds of titles, from martial arts hits like Bloodsport to Charles Bronson’s Death Wishsequels, Chuck Norris vehicles like The Delta Force, and pop curiosities like Breakin’, Over the Top, and Masters of the Universe.
While most major studios relied on large budgets and prestige, Cannon embraced cost-efficiency and aggressive foreign pre-sales. The company expanded rapidly, even acquiring the British-based EMI Films, and for a brief period had a presence at prestigious film festivals—famously screening Jean-Luc Godard and Franco Zeffirelli alongside its action-heavy catalog. Their ambition reached a peak in the mid-80s when Cannon attempted to enter the superhero genre with an ill-fated Spider-Man project and the commercially unsuccessful Superman IV: The Quest for Peace.
By the mid-1980s, the company had expanded too quickly—attempting to play in both arthouse and blockbuster markets. It entered the New York Stock Exchange under ticker “CAG”, but financial filings began to draw attention. In 1988, Cannon was the subject of an SEC investigation into accounting irregularities and possible misrepresentation of earnings. That same year, Pathé Communications (controlled by Giancarlo Parretti) acquired a stake in the company, only for Pathé itself to later be embroiled in fraud and financial scandal.
As Cannon unraveled, many of its announced films were shelved, sold off, or quietly abandoned. Golan left the company in 1989. By the early 1990s, Cannon ceased operations altogether, its assets eventually absorbed into MGM’s library.
