Great titles there Ves, there are a few that look equally good in their own right. The Big Clock and They Made Me a Killer to name two.

You spelt that wrong, it's AUS.

It is a film NOIR, right?
Nlt supposed to be a Christmas-themed movie with really poorly drawn art, is it?

Surely no one prefers that crude tracing of Reynold Brown's Time Machine art over his beautiful original...

Bogie is almost unrecognizable on that Aussie Enforcer, and the cop behind his shoulder looks like his face is melting.

Lol that is one cool daybill ... bloody New Zealander censor's ruined it with a (R Persons under 13 will not be Admitted) Censor stamp

As for the The Enforcer daybill come on Crow, Bogart farted and they were about to have a

U.S insert, you need glasses bro.

I love the Martin and Lewis daybills...now if I could only get my paws on the few left that I don't have, I'd be one very happy lassy.

I was waiting to bring out the Godzilla daybill when I needed to prove the superiority of aussie artwork and colour saturdation, nice to see I don't have to.
All right, I'll concede there are a few US posters that beat their Aussie counterparts.

A lot of these are too close to call, but I've got to say that "Caddy" daybill is the first Martin and Lewis poster from any country I'd ever want to own, (with apologies to Tom P.).

Before anybody congratulates me on my fine taste, I'd also like to own that happy, friendly "Godzilla". Such a good monster puppy!

I need one of those Carlton Brown of the F.O. posters....

crowzilla · « **Reply #95 on:** July 21, 2012, 12:31:36 PM »

I do like the Rodan daybill better than the US insert, but it's totally different artwork, so again not a good comparison.

oh yeah, I'll probably get yelled at by Peter if I forget to mention that we have a bunch of auctions with some cool stuff ending tomorrow (see link below).

ozcinemagic · « **Reply #96 on:** July 21, 2012, 09:27:19 PM »

Ted to make the official call, but looks like we're done and dusted. Not only has the Aussie paper won out, but the Aussie collectors have shown themselves to be more passionate and dedicated.

Sean was brave while he lasted. No doubt a new generation will inherit his bath toys and take up the fight. R.I.P. old fella...

Special memorial edition in MPE red. Mothra and Gammera soon to be released.

Yes, this is proven daily by prices the Aussie paper brings vs. US originals.
Believe me, you will have no competition from me or anyone I know when the next daybill for Creature from the Black Lagoon, House of Frankenstein, and scores of others appear for sale.

And of course if anyone here has an ugly US insert for House of Frankenstein and would like to trade it for one of the beautiful Aussie daybills with it's superior coloring

I would be happy to track one down for just such an opportunity.

Here's some more Aussie "winners" (the Mole People is especially stunning, they must have spent extra money to hire a 10-yr old to trace & color it instead of the usual 8-yr old) compared to the US losers.
I saw some kids yesterday doing chalk drawings on the sidewalk here, they should probably be hired right-away to color the next round of daybills.

I guess the same people picking this as a winner vs the beautiful original are the same few who think Charlie Sheen is "winning":

vs.

Hey mom! Guess what we did in art class today? We traced a US insert poster and then tried coloring in with chalk. A movie studio paid us $5 extra if we finished it before nap time. Then we watched Sesame Street.

That's great Jr! That hack Reynold Brown will be out of a job in no time!
