"The Mafia? I've shit 'em"  Great film and a very cool poster, although I think the quad has some charm too. I agree with your write up Ed, it's fascinating to see how London has changed, in particular, the docklands. |

Another great write up on your website Ed - undoubtedly the most professional and informative poster collection site in my opinion.
I have that Long Good Friday poster - and another UK style which is arguably as good! I will try and find time to take a picture of it and a couple of other UK styles as well.

Agreed. I check on Ed's site every day or two for updates. It is a learning experience, no doubt. And I dig the close-up pictures, too! |

Thanks gents. I agree with Bruce and Ted that the film is a must-see classic.
Mark: Do you have the one sheet with artwork by Tom Chantrell (as featured in Sim's great book)? I'd love to find that style too one day. I look forward to seeing the pics.

Definitely lust after the "LGF" one sheet. Nicely done.
On a side note, does anybody know how many different quads there were. I know there's the "fuse" and I seem to recall one with Razors too. Are there others?

I think there were two quads for the original release - there were also at least two double crowns (probably four) based on the same style of the original quads - and a great re-release quad. I have all of these and will try and put up some pictures by the weekend.

I like that ballerina one, Mel. Great addition there, Ed, as usual, you have a great eye. Pick up your Ansin Metropolis yet? You can have mine if you build me a cool website. |

Cheers Ben. No sign of Metropolis yet  If only I had the skills to build you a site from scratch I surely would - it helps when you have friends who know what they're doing! |

I saw it for the first time (and second timme actually) a couple of months back and really enjoyed it, although I still greatly prefer Mona Lisa in the Bob Hoskins/British crime oeuvre... |

Lol! Well, I am trying to counter the poster of hot girls that have been posted. Beef-cakes need some love too :p It's my first Italian 2 sheet. There's three more coming my way. A French "Risky Business" and "Last StarFighter". |
