Congrats

Could the first poster be printed without the red colour?

erik1925 · « **Reply #101 on:** February 15, 2016, 05:44:53 PM »

And unlike the "final" Belgians with full color, this particular copy is also missing the printer's info on the lower, right border.

Good call on both observations...

I'm not very well schooled on proofs, is it a possibility that that the printers info. was left off until the final run? Or do most feature printing info. from the get-go?

erik1925 · « **Reply #103 on:** February 15, 2016, 06:40:40 PM »

In EMP's description, they also say that it appears to be a proof. They go on and add:

"We know nothing more about the poster, but it is certainly interesting and different! If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here."

Just a thought: Maybe it was a copy that was taken off the line, by a print worker, prior to the last pass of inks, (and the printer's info was likely printed in black) because that person liked the way it looked in those more eerie, light green tones? (Similar to how some posters from the '30s thru the '70s, for example, have shown up, never folded, because someone snagged them before they reached the folding part of the line).

Just a guess, but in any case, it gives it a very different, overall feel.

Sounds like a pretty tight possibility for sure, thanks!

There was a Marler Haley Halloween set on ebay last year or the year before, time kind of blends together these days, but anyway, the whole set was right around 1000 if I remember correctly. Wish I would have bought it now.

That would have been a nice to set for 1000 Dale. I kinda wish you bought it too, so I could see the rest of the set......

Hey there,
This is my first post outside of the 'Hello' section... great to find a place with such an active community for one of my passions.

I picked this up last week... took a bit of a stab on it, because it is a bit of an unknown. It's the Belgian poster release for Rosemary's Baby, though this particular print has a brighter/alternate image than all of the others of the same issue I could track down. EMP lists it as a possible proof. If anybody has any input or information, it'd be much appreciated!

On the left is the poster I purchased, on the right is what all other examples of this poster resemble.

This is an incredible film...just because they made it so credible...boy...and I like the poster too.

Congratulations!

Congratulations!

Thanks! Was stoked to pick it up. However you feel about Polanski, there's no doubt he hit it out of the park with this one.

MX OS for Los Hijos Ajenos (1959) (I believe the translation is: The Children of Foreigners)

The tears on Gracia's cheeks almost look 3D to me, as well as the overall detail in her face.

Last night, I was getting ready to throw away/recycle the packaging that this poster came in, and found this inside. The seller must have included it with the poster but i wasn't aware of it. It's a b/w advert of some kind for the same film. It measures 9x11 inches and is printed with black ink. The paper is heavier than newsprint and there is nothing printed on the back.

Also, written in red pen, on the upper, right corner is "Wellington" as well as "Ritz Wellington" in light pencil. In looking up that name, I did find a reference for a Ritz Theater located in Wellington, TX (http://www.wellingtonritztheatre.com/blog/about-the-ritz/), so maybe it was shown here.

Nice surprise for sure! Even cooler to get a bit of history on where your paper has traveled from.

Very nice, Rosa. There are some films that really stand out among the rest, as well as their posters.

StarryKat · « **Reply #117 on:** February 17, 2016, 02:08:11 PM »

Paul is the best, so wonderful. I have a large print from Cat above my office at work and a small re release of Hustler.

Rich, those are incredible!

Gotta love Karloff, any day of the week, and that Seven Footprints of Satan is a really interesting image, too.

Congratulations Rosa, you have lots of images of Paul Newman on that one
