I need to get rid of them, but I cannot sell them or give them away. I can only throw them away, which I may do when I move.

Please let me know when trash day is. You know what they say, one man's trash...
And don't worry, we're protected by CALIFORNIA v. GREENWOOD, 486 U.S. 35 (1988).

Great pickups everyone! Except for that one. Guh.

Well, we definitely do not want anyone acting like a daybill or any other Aussie paper. I prefer to act like a bus shelter or a door panel.

Had these a week or so..

First purchase off the bay in ages, but it was a must. I had the 8mm film as a kid, it was about the 3rd or 4th film we got, so watched it many times, usually mocking the Awesome (not-so)special effects... No wonder the poster is so scarce on a Quad.

Did get some others, BFG, The Boy, X-Men, Capt America, but I won't put you through them

Congrats on finding and acquiring The Giant Claw quad, Paul!

Tis a early 60's re-release Jeff, but I can't say I've seen a first... $:-\$

Regardless, 'tis a nice find indeed, Paul.

Thanks guys,
It's an Italian 3panel/6sh. Any idea on the rarity of the poster?

Tho not creepy like bigmike's previous entry, I had this arrive today:

A Swedish OS for the film noir, Whiplash (Warner Bros. 1948). I saw this movie for the first time on cable, over the holidays, while visiting my family.

I like the actor credits font style on the poster. It feels very art deco. And the drawn art (aside from the b/w photo in the upper right) is always a thumbs up for me.

On the back of this poster, written in red pencil, is the name, Vadstena. It turns out this is the name of a small town in the south of Sweden.

Nice Swedish poster there, Jeff. Several cool aspects of it, as you mentioned. I also like the bold, red, white, and blue theme.

Neo · « **Reply #196 on:** February 21, 2016, 02:26:09 AM »

Just picked up this one, from the local theater. I saw it in the lightbox, right after seeing the movie a few weeks ago, and it's stunning, IMO.

I asked the manager about it, and she checked to see if there were any others in their storage room, and discovered that the one on display is the only one they received. I gave her my phone number, and she said she'd call me when they stopped screening the movie there, and then I could pick it up, which was mighty kind of her, of course. True to her word, I got the call today, and picked it up when I went to see another movie there tonight. The whole interacting with folks in real life is a nice change.

Anyway, there are some exquisite portrait shots in the movie, and this poster captures of a couple of them very well.

Thanks, man.
