My Canadian LA Confidential poster finally arrived. Just a few dings here and there but overall excellent condition:

Congratulations.

But those drinking glasses are screwing with my mind

Great looking poster, Mel! I am glad you were able to find one. It is a toughie for sure and certainly fits the unicorn bill.

And while we are adding to the thread, I suppose this one belongs here:

Two beauts.

I love Luca Brasi's face creeping over the top of that Godfather poster with the knife in his hand!

this International style Harry Potter poster has to be a Unicorn.
has anyone here seen it before

paul waines · « **Reply #330 on:** October 22, 2011, 08:08:53 PM »

That has to be a U.S. poster, as it's called "Philosophers stone" over here, and the rest of Europe...

MoviePosterBid.com · « **Reply #331 on:** October 22, 2011, 08:41:47 PM »

Paul, that art was only used in International campaigns and the poster has no ratings box.
it IS a final version, so it can only be for international distribution. However in a separate thread we do discuss this title issue, so it's possible that where the International teaser I sold several weeks back is made for the UK and some other European countries, that this poster may have been for distribution to Asia and other countries or even Australia/NZ

ps.. it's also possible it's a mistake poster and was pulled, but seeing as there are reference examples on ebay/bruce/heritage etc, all we can say for sure is ithat it's an International. Maybe Marklawd will know more

Rich supporting censorship?! Say it ain't so!

MoviePosterBid.com · « **Reply #338 on:** October 22, 2011, 10:56:01 PM »

lol.. Holiday doesn't want to censor it because he thinks it isn't a Unicorn.
I'm sure he believes it to be a Unicorn

but I sorta have a story that goes like this:
a few years back, someone was selling a bunch of high quality stuff on my site and I was promoting his stuff.. he had one poster I wanted to buy.. well in all my promos.. I never mentioned that one poster, although it was listed & it did sell for $1000+

I did buy it

Well you have to give Rich credit, he is almost out "P.T. Barnum-ing" Bruce. The poster was posted in mid-auction though it is not in an auction, it was moved to for sale/trade, and now it has made its way to the Unicorn thread.

Just be careful Rich. If you post it in the Brude's Halloween thread, you will anger the big ape.

Unfair! You don't see me posting in this thread about one of the ultimate unicorns that exist in this hobby, the War of the Worlds style B half-sheet, which starts in around 17 hours in my TWELFTH ANNUAL HALLOWEEN AUCTION!

Notice Rich, I said "almost". Bruce is still the king of promo.

yeah but Bruce.. the WOTW hs has been sold repeatedly in the last 5 years.. the Potter poster has apparently not been seen before. Not even by you, who has sold some 6 trillion posters!

also, Holiday moved my post from Mid-auction because I did indeed go too far. I should have realized the poster should have been in Unicorns without any promo. so I have placed it here so.

not that the WOTW doesn't belong here also.. by itself

How bizarre is that, that a new poster can be seen so much less than a classic like WOTW.

I think I know 5 copies of WOTW that have been sold in the past 2 years, not sure if that is repeatedly or not. Is it really a unicorn, or is it just really expensive?

I'd say that's repeatedly and I guess what is a Unicorn may depend on definition.. I think that if 20 or less are known to exist, it is a Unicorn.. I don't know how many WOTW style B exist

crowzilla · « **Reply #347 on:** October 23, 2011, 03:10:09 AM »

Has to be more than 20. I doubt I've seen 25% of the population trade hands in the last 2 years.

sorry Bruce.. it isn't a Unicorn.. just a horse with a fake horn glued to it's head

*but it is still an Arabian White

I think it t'was me with the reference to a Thai/Intl angle for this Harry Potter poster. It's not the same poster tho, it's only single sided and approx. 27 1/2" x 39 1/2". The difference I spotted is that this one has more of the image round the sides of the poster (note how much space is on the right of Hagred)...

This is only the auction photo, but when it arrives I'll take a better one and see if there's any legitimacy issues with it!
