As the title states, what is the biggest poster in your collection?

This beast just arrived today.  A 5x10 foot banner for The Hulk (2003), a marvelous Cheesy movie IMO.  The larger formats are pretty awesome IMO, especially the vinyls as they are very high quality.  Luckily (for me) they're a lot more rare than the regular formats and I probably won't buy one unless I really like the movie and design, as I intend on displaying the few I own.

I have a rolled 8-Sheet (mediocre Disney flick) and a regular 6 six sheet (Close Encounters 3rd Kind).  I also have a few 10x5 (or 5x10) banners, although most of 50+ vinyl collection runs smaller than that...

For length in one piece, it would have to be this one... 120in I think



Otherwise, any French 6 sheet posters I own, like these 2 94x125in.

I was checking my website and I listed this one as being 120x160in.



Why the fuck do I own it, I don't know, but I do.

I think I still have a 30sheet for War of the Worlds here somewhere. Other than that it would be banners. Have some huge ones for angels and demons. The 300 Banner set was pretty big if I remember correctly.

This reminds me of when I went to EuroDisney. All the Droids, in fact all the Star Wars actors spoke in English, then French. Quite amusing...


The biggest poster I think I have is this French.....er 6sht I'm guessing!!  It seems to measure about 92"x122", and is in 4 pieces.
Couldn't fit it all in, in the pic...

Must be post 1937.  Funny how much the female looks like Disney's Snow White.

The Hulk (2003), a marvelous Cheesy movie IMO.
 

Really liked the Ang Lee HULK so much better than the second...

I have several bus stops and banners, but the largest poster I have is a mural for LOTR: THE TWO TOWERS.
I don't have pics of it yet, but it is five or six pieces -- like one sheets side by side -- measuring approx. 40" high by 150-180" wide. It's a big 'un.

A lot of awesome stuff in this thread.  

Rich, do you think there is a good market for those 24 sheets?  Seems like it would be a small demographic of people who would want to display one of those, but would they be willing to pay some big bucks for one?

Louie, never heard of Machine Gun Mama but checked to see the one sheet and your six sheet sounds like probably the coolest piece in your collection IMO.  I love me some bad ass women with some bad ass firearms.  Grin

Dale and Archie, sound like you guys have a lot of the vinyls.  Personally, I don't see them too often, only one theater out of several I've been to in the area ever has them on display, and I rarely see several of the same title for sale on Ebay.  Would you guys say that the future outlook as far as long term value for some of the better titles is good given the rarity, quality, etc. of them?

Mel, that's a cool six sheet.  Almost like a gnarly aquarium on the wall, the only things it's missing to make it truly epic are some mermaids.

Brude, I'll have to check out the Ang Lee version.  That LOTR mural sounds cool, you should try to snap some pics of it sometime.

Lolz.  It is a really cool film, I can't imagine one being better than it anytime soon, thanks for the correction.  The 2008 version has been removed from my queue.   Grin
