Not sure what I could afford with it, but it would have to be a Universal Horror of some kind. Hopefully from the Frankenstein series.

Probably la dolce Vita, 2F - the bluish colored one with smoker and anita

the only Hammer daybill I have seen but dont have, its for sale and a LOT less than $10,000 ($800). I wouldn't be fussy. Thats the poster I want most (you can keep the change).

I'd go for this 1 sheet.

French Casablanca goes right in this price range:

If the Casablanca lobby card I have in my profile picture can be gotten for $10,000 that's the one I'd get.

I'd put it towards the Theda Bara "Cleopatra" WC in the Heritage auction, and use the rest to buy something else. This would look astonishing next to the "Salome" WC, so those of you that still haven't thought about what to get me for Christmas (it's never too early), this would be the ideal gift.

If you find the guy who will sell that to you for $10k, we will crown you a poster buying god.

My all-time favorite movie is M, so I'd love to own some paper on this. I'm not sure of the price, though. The Casablanca that Mel posted, I will own in the next ten years (God willing, of course.) Not a big fan of the Black Lagoon. I never got the attraction to the big lips monster. Maybe some Hitchcock, like Shadow of a Doubt. A three sheet for Laura. But I don't think these are worth $10k.

Has anyone ever sold a US 1 sheet on this title?

Cine-Images has some nice original M posters.... a bit pricey for my tastes though!

Original German 3-sheet 20,000 Euros
http://www.cine-images.com/moteur/page_detail.php?id=3390

Original French 1-panel for 30,000 Euros
http://www.cine-images.com/moteur/page_detail.php?id=5182

And last but, by no means least... an insane art deco French 4-panel that makes me want to weep it is so beautiful! Unfortunately, the 50,000 Euro price also makes me want to weep!

You haven't really answered your question yet T... I'll show you mine if you show me yours.

I'm still debating as one of the posters I want the most is less than $10k. I can't decide if I should pick based on absolute desire (even if less than $10k), or based on maximizing my $10k purchase (best poster right at $10k)...

Man this is a very hard question to answer...I am still working on it

let me get my time machine and go back to 1995

It is hard for me to pick one I like that is close to $10,000 and not a lot more or less. For less I would say a House On Haunted Hill 3sh.

raulleaf · « **Reply #21 on:** July 13, 2011, 07:33:07 PM »

To Catch a Thief 6-sheet. Not quite 10K.... This would be the ONE though...

But maybe I could work a deal to throw in a Rear Window 3-sheet?.

Oh yes, I will buy these before I die even if I have to charge them to a credit card on my death bed....

These have been my "if I win the lottery" posters since I started collecting. Probably would buy all version if I won the lottery though...

CSM · « **Reply #22 on:** July 13, 2011, 09:58:25 PM »

After much consideration it would have to be one of these (right now anyways

)

That Australian 1S is the best 1S for Cassie - first time I've seen it!

Here are two rare Italian re-releases in the 10K range:
