do you think 10,000 is rare?

and what about this lie:
newer posters are made by the millions."



Nope..  Something like 5 known copies is rare to me and proofs and errors don't count..

5 known copies isn't rare, that is ultra-rare.
I know there was a discussion about this before... most people think 25-50 is rare

I think the major problem in assuming any sort of rarity is you can only know what you know...  I think it is easy to say that there are a lot of posters that always show up in signature / mini/major / etc. auctions...  If they are so rare, why are they always so available?

UGH - this is like arguing over if the Pawn Stars shop is crotch-to-crotch packed or only crotch-to-ass packed  eyeroll

I just looked up "butts to nuts" in the urban dictionary and apparently (in addition to referring to a crowded venue) it also means to dudes riding on a motorcycle!

Ha Ha Ha!!!  Is this the first instance in all of film poster history that another country re-used Australian artwork?

It would have to be the first, wouldn't it? Imagine the level despair you must be in before deciding the only option you have was to re-use Australian DB artwork..shudder...

I learned this the hard way - to check ebay against what I'm bidding on elsewhere.  I learned the lesson just like this bidder will soon enough.

For sure, Matias.   ;)

$840.00 for a commercial (and more scarce) poster.

Amazing!

Surely our friend Neo here has his motives for bidding that high (as we all have ours, when bidding in stuff we desire). As most of you know, I like old paper, that why the  :o
