Mid-auction analysis - OMGs!, LOLs!, WTFs!, whatev....

Hmmmmmm....

There is not much under there, me thinks

Bruce.. I looked at Anthony Adverse and considered bidding for it. then I noticed it had gotten some good bidding and passed.

I loved that film when I was young and watched it every chance I had.
Sadly, little paper seems to come up on the title and when it does, it's always the same poster

[Bruce]

Rich, Fredric March is one of the absolute most underrated actors there is! Like Bogart, he appeared in a TON of great movies, yet he is rarely mentioned as one of the all-time greats.

And he seamlessly made the transition from leading man to character actor.

Here are ten of his best roles:

Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde
The Sign of the Cross
The Barretts of Wimpole Street
Les Misérables
A Star Is Born
One Foot in Heaven
The Best Years of Our Lives
Executive Suite
Inherit the Wind
Seven Days in May
and more!

Bruce

Ok, I'll put my money where my mouth is for once.  Bruce just put this up.  Get the fuck out of my way, because it's mine.

I likey a lot... but your safe this end, I'm holding out for the English lenticular version!

[paul waines]

Now that's the one I'd want.....you shouldn't have shown me that one, me also likey...

[agentprovocateur]

I think it's quite elusive Paul... have been keeping my eyes out for one over the past 2 odd years ever since I heard about it.

I purloined that image off a website that sold it for £350, if my understanding is correct it was a standee and only the portrait section is lenticular... but I could definitely be proved wrong!

[paul waines]

That would make sense re: only the portrait being lenticular, a bit like in the film. I don't get the Standee bit, is it like a bill board stand...

The standee hand mini-lenticulars that were part of the setup. There is also a full size lenticular with an unconfirmed existence count of less than 10 or maybe even 5 I believe.

[marklawd]

Exactly 6 of the US one sheet size, allegedly. Please don't ask me to provide studio confirmation.

Here is a thread about the lenticular for Azkaban.  If there were only 6 produced, that has to be an ultimate unicorn.

[Louie D.]

that has to be an ultimate unicorn.

Only if you like "Top Gun".

Maybe they were available at Suncoast...

[Chupito]

I love the artwork on this bond poster.
Is this the 2 foglio Italian original release?
..shame its stuck on board or was it fabricated like that?

[agentprovocateur]

Some fascinating stuff in emovie's latest auction... especially two, one with artwork I've never seen for the film!

It'll be obvious what I'm after

Hey does this Tiffany's look a little dot matrixy to you guys...

Did you miss this part?

"The title was cut out of this poster"

Even if it's real, its a dawg.  Better to spend a lot more money on a nice copy, than a little money on shit.  If you want an example, then buy a repro to display. Don't waste your money on this.

Crap, I went right for the pictures. It is a "dawg".  Still I didn't realize how bad the printing job is on these.  I checked a few out on HA zoomed in and they are this way. 

[eatbrie]

I would not buy this for $1.

[Charlie]

Well I might buy it for $1 and clip out Audrey to hang up with thumbtacks; plus it looks like you could make at least $200 profit if you were to resell it.

[holiday]

Boy, between Bruce and Rich this week, there's a whole lot of nice posters on the block.

They really do.  That Halloween lineup with all that fairly old school stuff is pretty insane, and Rich has a lot of great newer stuff.  

Rich, what happened with the PF Lucky Strikes poster?  Haven't you sold that joker 2 times already?  Geez Louise, that has to be the most notorious Lucky Strikes poster around!

[ATLfun]

  If I recall correctly, it was purchased by Rattler.  He bought it unaware that it was sun faded, and asked to return it.

I'm pretty sure he sold it twice, returned both times, and the guy who had it before him sold it at least twice, returned both (or more) times, then Rich bought it.

  Well, Rich has taken a blood oath to protect the identity of his sellers.  But I know, that Rattler bought the last one which looks like the one being sold this time.

Ah, well that's good that he protects the identity of his buyers (did you mean to say buyers?), and maybe he only sold it once then.  Still I've never seen a poster returned so many times, and the PF Lucky Strikes is a notorious version, itself.
