The urge to soak him/her on general principal is certainly growing.

Agree. S/he  is like a vacuum cleaner.

My only hope is that already won the poster i want. So s/he won't be bidding for it again... i lost it..once....moron1

I see that ma500969 is the highest bidder on the top six items on Bruce's special April auction. That guy has some serious cash! He's buying all the 10's and 20's posters.

So far looks like s/he is buying 20 posters. I don't know how people manage to keep up bidding for 20 posters at once...

Uhmm

Not me, Steve..but whoever it is.. if they have the cash, the fortitude and desire to want and win.. that's all that matters, right? (And is what that person is doing). And whoever this is, they are putting one hell of a nice collection together, that's for sure.

So again, i say, a big congrats to whoever it might be.  cheers

This, I think, is the best art on the movie.  Nistri is awesome.



So glad I already own a mint folded version, because I would for sure go for it.



I wonder why mine has more blue in it.

And this Carfagni imagery on this 2F of Marlene Dietrich for Flame of New Orleans is also very nice. Currently at $1600.00

Oh Bruce, your large sized posters auction this week is grrrrreat!


PS, there is an unaccounted for arm in this one, or am I over analyzing it?

That arm sure in "unaccounted for," Steve. 

We probably need to watch the flicker to see who it belongs to (or perhaps it is disembodied).   ;D

This is a cool poster, not rare, but actually somewhat hard to find in the "more production" series, at $199.

Beware...

Seller is listing it in the repro category, but I imagine someone somewhere down the line will try and pass it off as real.

If that is actually a pic of your poster Thierry I certainly would be hesitant to use the word 'mint' to grade it :/
