I thought I would share this gem with Arbuckle and Keaton...it's the only mini lobby card I have on this film...Imagine getting to see those two work out their comedy routines.....Enjoy!

What a great looking card, Tait. Let alone seeing Keaton with a smile!

What size is a mini LC?

mini Lobby cards are 8 X 10 in size....they are tough to find....the ones I have handled were heavier paper and had a nice feel to them...

Buster was quite animated during some of the Arbuckle short comedies....here are some Gif's of his smiles...in the 1917 short Coney Island he seemed to be really enjoying himself!!

Great to know, Tait, as I'd never read about the mini LC before.

And what fun gifs! Keaton's face didn't crack, when he showed his pearly whites!

The Raven (1935) (1948 Realart RR 3 sheet)

Something I came across a couple years ago, and haven't seen a copy of, since. HA has never auctioned one, and EMP only ever auctioned one copy. This is that same 3sh.

The overlaid colors on Karloff and Lugosi's faces really pop, and the large facial images of both work so well, too.

And since no 3sh from the first release has ever surfaced (or another from the '48 re-release), I'm quite happy to have acquired this.

Congratulations. Both LC are exquisite. I assume both are now yours?

Beautiful pair of cards, Tait.

And in really nice condition, it looks like, too.

Impressive 3 sheet there Jeff! That should go on the wall!

erik1925 · « **Reply #613 on:** November 03, 2015, 01:39:59 AM »

Thanks, Steve.

I'd like to have it up, but need to figure a way to do it without it having to be backed, as it doesnt need that.

Boss 3 sheeter.

I've the one sheet, insert and title card from '48. The lobby cards are great also and starting to command a pretty penny.

Gingerman · « **Reply #615 on:** November 18, 2015, 04:53:10 PM »

WOW how did I miss the Raven?

That is awesome Jeff I actually was wondering how a 3 sheet would do in a spotlight frame...one in more than one piece..without being backed of course.

erik1925 · « **Reply #616 on:** November 18, 2015, 06:16:32 PM »

Thanks gents.

And yes, Chris, I'd like to be able to frame this, too, but without backing it. The condition is fine just as is, looking like it was never used or displayed in the first place. So the paper is solid, even along the fold lines.

My unicorns would be the Japanese promo posters for The outsiders. Only ever seen them on EatBrie's site!

Nem! -- Ilona "Filó" Fischer, Hungarian B1 1955

I've been trying to supplement my Eastern European film poster collection with a few important propaganda/political posters from the era... Glad to report that I was able to track down this awesome post-WWII, anti-fascism, anti-Nazi propaganda poster from Hungary!

Crazy Vick · « **Reply #619 on:** January 19, 2016, 08:50:10 PM »

What an amazing poster on so many levels. A real coup when propaganda artists were able to showcase art in support of messaging. I wasn't sure from your other post if you had bought this or if you were just sharing the art. That must have set you back a few bucks!

Jeff also PM'd me and pointed out that the original thread I posted this in was for Christian's posters -- so I moved it here. It definitely wasn't cheap, but I got it for MUCH less than my max bid so I was quite happy in the end

erik1925 · « **Reply #621 on:** January 19, 2016, 09:56:47 PM »

That's one powerful looking poster, Matt.

Congrats again on the win.

Absolutely stunning. As usual, you are doing it right, Matt.

Incredible poster art. Congratulations on adding this one to your collection Matt.
