Eric, is your quad double sided?

And it's interesting that this other Park Circus 2007RR quad has the added info line added: "In Association with TCM"

According to the emp description, this copy is single sided. I wonder if double sided versions with the TCM info were also made.
And I wonder why some of these quads have that additional TCM line if the RR was done in the same year?  dontknow.gif

Jeff it's double sided.  Eric

Way back in 1974, I saw this image in a magazine (maybe Famous Monsters) and, try as I might, I couldn't locate a copy of the poster anywhere. 
I wrote some letters (no internet back then) but nobody could help, so I eventually gave up.
Then just a few days ago, my Ebay search showed up and there it was, with a buy it now for the price of a modern poster.
Its not an actual movie poster, but a poster advertising a photo-book with stills and dialogue from the 1931 classic.
Its larger than a one-sheet at 30x45 and doesn't have the printer's color bar at the bottom (as this is a stock photo).
Its rolled (as originally issued) and near mint condition with not a single ding or crease.
The colors are still vibrant for a 43-year-old poster and I am one happy camper.

Great story, and awesome poster.  Brilliant image and colors with the monster and the Dr., and profound quote.

You must have been stoked to see that listing after all those years, and in that good of condition, to boot.  Perseverance pays off.

I recall this poster, too, from my Famous Monsters of Filmland days. I always thought it was a really neat looking poster. Great color and graphics.

Nice pickup, Ted and be sure to post your copy when it arrives, too!  thumbup

Thanks, Shawn.
I've been trying to find some info on the artist (Melo) but nothing yet.
Anyone know of this person?

this is acquisitions thread, not 'I'll be selling it in the future' thread

clap clap clap

I didn't think this was such an odd question seeing as he sells/auctions posters, and Dale posted his 'Audition' which is currently up for sale...

Awesome grab, Ted. It's stories like those that are at the real heart of poster collecting!

Congratulations, buddy!  :)

Chris

Because I believe in 'rulez' I would not be posting anything that involves selling in discussion threads. I think it is a no-no.
there are plenty of places here for me to post FS/FA without injecting guerilla marketing techniques into discussion threads.

sometimes I may have duplicates of course, but I still don't offer them via acquisitions threads

sadly, I do not have any dupes of the Zodiac poster

Hey man, no need to explain yourself. I totally get it, and appreciate that most folks on here post where posts belong. That being said, if someone comes across an acquisition that they are keen on, but up to the possibility of selling, i.e. Dale's Audition, I don't have a big issue with that either. Which is why I asked.

My post was more geared towards Jeff's reply, that I saw as unnecessary.

I agree, but posting the same emoji three times without a word seems pretty 7th grade to me and again, unnecessary. If you can't see why I would take exception to it, then it would be a waist to both of our time trying to explain it.

Moving on...

You are certainly entitled to your opinion. But i would suggest that you will find many posts scattered throughout the forum where people have quickly made use of emoticons in lieu of writing a response. 

And, yes... moving on.
