Okay, I'll start a little bit ahead of time with 2 posters I won yesterday... A French 8 sheet for Bonnie and Clyde (1967, art by René Ferracci)... This one is 120x160in!!!  From Dan Rickard... this Star Wars Style C (PG version). I've wanted the more common international version of this poster for a long time, but was always too scared to buy it because of the multiple reprints on the title, so when Dan posted the rarer PG version (which has not been reprinted), I jumped on it.  And finally, this great Bardot poster for Haine, Amour et Trahison (1954, Italian 4 Foglio, 55x78in, art by Anselmo Ballester). I already posted a bad internet picture of it, but this is my own.  |

Absolutely beautiful. No seriously, I think it is gorgeous (albeit too big for my liking), to the point I have sent a link to my wife because I know she will think so too. |

Is that why you have had a restraining order taken out against you?  |

A superb poster from my favourite artist and time period for Italian posters. I rarely bid on 4 Foglios though as I find them just too large to handle and view. Mark |

I love it when we get new members. It is like a door opening into a world of undiscovered stock.... Been searching and wanting this one for about 5 years.... Now to pray it makes it across the ocean and into my hands.... You "mint it" folks will have to excuse the staple rips... It's just a beauty! Thanks Mark.... Sorry daybill-o-files; Charlie stole another one! Promise last one... Scouts honor...  |

Good work Charlie!  It's hard to find the first original for Kwai. It took me a while too. |

If it's vinyl could you iron it on low (with a towel in between)? Seems like it would be able to handle that very well... |

Yeah, there are a few websites that suggest doing that. I'm a little hesitant to try, since I've used an iron probably 5 times in my entire life, but I may do a test on a small area and see how it goes. I'll let y'all know how it goes if I try that method. |

I'd be loathe to do it on vinyl - it's not a 'natural' material so there is no damage to fibres as such, therefore it would be unlikely you could return it to it's former glory as there is no 'memory' inherent in the material for it to reform. What has happened is the material has stretched, you may be able to flatten in to some degree by pressing under something heavy, but unlikely looking at the pics.
Other than returning it to the carrier or shipper then IMHO your best bet is to either slowly hang it and stretch it with weights over time or shrink the problem with heat such as a hair dryer or pain stripper. The latter is highly dangerous to the longevity of the item!
