Looking for House 1977 (Hausu) Criterion Re-release One Sheet
« on: October 22, 2015, 08:45:40 PM »
I'm in somewhat urgent need of this poster! If you have it and feel like you could part with it and would still be able to sleep at night, let me know! I'd be happy to pay fairly. ;D

Criterion had been offering it for $25 on their site for the longest time but when I went to order, it was gone. I can't believe it's proven this difficult to find considering its popularity and the fact that it was readily available for several years at a low price--but i'm having no luck.

Normally I'd be patient and just wait for one to pop up but I now need this poster by 11/19/2015-- I have a ticket to a screening of the film, accompanied by a signing by the director and the clock is ticking!

FYI, I've already tried contacting Criterion (who were no help) and the original designer of the poster (but he didn't respond).

Thanks in advance!

PS: Here's a visual

And here are 2 other orignal Japanese posters I'd possibly be intersted in as well

Was the Criterion 2010RR a full size OS?

Or was it more undersize?

I saw one at a theater here in LA, that was screening the movie at the time, but I dont recall it being 27x40. Not sure tho.

I also remember going onto the Criterion site and finding it in their store (when the theater said they would not sell their copy).

The first of your two alternates is a pamphlet I believe... probably 7x10" max. 




And sorry, I have an extra copy but only of this other style B2...

Criterion had it listed on their site as 27" x 40"

emovieposter had one for sale in the past that they listed for 27" x 39.5"

So yes, I do believe it was supposed to be full-size. When you went on the Criterion store, did you buy one?

Thanks for the head's up about the pamphlet. I had seen the image listed as a poster so I just assumed it was accurate. I'll PM you about the other.

Update: The artist, Sam Smith, did get back to me and was very nice and helpful but he didn't have any posters either.

Would you happen to know of anyone else who has this poster in their collection that I could try to contact?

I don't offhand but will let you know if I come across someone. I know time is of the essence for you, too.  ;)

I'm just going to try bumping this because I'm running very low on time! At this point, if anyone knows someone who has this poster in their collection (whether they are interested in selling or not) I'd be willing to reach out to provide them with an offer. Maybe they could be persuaded if the price were right  ;). Thanks!

The artist also released an 18 x 24" screen print version (signed and numbered from a limited run of 75). http://expressobeans.com/public/detail.php/173569

I used to have it, but traded it fairly recently. I could PM the chap who has it if you like? Or were you only after the 27 x 39" litho?

Thanks for your response. Glad to hear from a fellow EB member. I am specifically looking for the one sheet, not the print. EB lists 2 people as having it in their collections. I wish there was a way to find out who. I'm sure I probably have something that they'd be interested in trading for it.

How did this all work out for you, nebu1ou5?

Did you ever find and buy copy by the date you mentioned?

Hope so.   prayer.gif
