All the Aussie one sheet is missing is Lorre (then it would be sublime!).  It certainly trumps most if not all of the US art in my opinion...

Really, you shouldn't use such crass language about Ingrid Bergman.  Plus we have at least one female regularly on the board nowadays. For shame!

You are correct and I am Sorry. I really did forget she was here.  :-[

I'd buy some original poster artwork for the Bond series, but obviously not in the same league as the £70k+ spent recently at Christies!  :o

Actually, Jonny, you make a valid point...
...one poster I truly want is a mint condition, rolled copy of the Star Wars Chaykin poster; definitely not requiring $10k!

I think the question is like that movie with Richard Pryor where he must spend $2,000,000 in 30 days, he can't give anything away and he has to spend it all.

I have to spend my $10,000 and the question is "if you had $10,000 to spend on ONE poster, what would it be"

so the idea is to "blow your wad", with limitations

my problem is that there would be very few if any Raymond Chandler posters that fit the bill.
if a Murder My Sweet 6 sheet exists, it may go for $10,000.. or it may not
I guess if a Blue Dahlia 6 sheet existed, it might be $10k

I wouldn't spend $10k on a poster for my gambling collection (too much of a gamble), but if I did, again it would probably be a 6sheet and it would be Charlie Chan in Monte Carlo

there isn't any Universal Horror item I want that I could buy that low and there def. is no 1940s-50s horror or sf piece I am interested in at 10k

so then it would be Fritz Lang, but the problem here is anything I would really want at the upper prices is probably more than 10k (proven as fact by my underbidding the Spies 1sh) and anything else is probably considerably under $10k

so running all those through.. it's the Blue Dahlia 6 sheet, for $10,000 and thank you very much sir

"Brewster's Millions".  Made and remade a bunch of times and according to IMDB, in development for another filming in 2012.

yeah that's the one.. I think it was twice during the silent era, once in the 30s, once in the 40s with Dennis Morgan and who knows how many times without the real name of the story

so this thread is "Brewster's $10,000"

If you've got $10k for movie posters, then there's only one place to shop -- and it's Muy Bonito Benito!

Look at the poster you want, think about the higher value it could sell for, and then send him a paypal payment for 3 or 4 times that maximum you thought about...  ;D

It has been over 10 years since T asked this simple question.  What do you all think now?
For me, I'd like to make a private go at the 1932 Spanish Black and White one sheet for Frankenstein that didn't sell a few years back.

Dead Of Night UK quad for me. May have to consider buying a bigger house to have some place to hang it though.
