I think this early December haul from T has half the month covered already. ;D Some really nice stuff in that mix! clap
Received some 40 posters yesterday. A pretty good haul. Nothing out of this world, but some items I wanted for a while.

Here's a Japanese tatekan I just scored for Sam Fuller's film noir HOUSE OF BAMBOO (1955.) Interestingly, this is one of the earliest Hollywood films to shoot on-location in Tokyo, so I've been looking for this foreign poster for a while...

Finally can say I have something nice on what may be the paragon of film noir:

NICE, Chris. Is that a half sheet?
-
Here are a few to help get the month started.
Nothing to break down the door, but some welcome additions none-the-less.

Rosemary's Baby : Mondo screen printed release. I have a fondness for most anything Rosemary's Baby related, so this was a no brainer. Love the lines and apect of this art by Jonathan Burton.

Burton's Rosemary's Baby is very nice, Chris.
Cool piece of art for a great film.
clap clap clap clap
-
I've never seen Iron Eagle, but in just looking at the poster, was it sort of a Top Gun rip-off?
-
Thanks, Ted!
Jeff, it capitalized on the success of Top Gun, but it's not really a rip-off. I picked it up because of the found memories I have of that movie as a kid, and being into jets and fighter planes in general at that time in my life.
-
Thanks, Chris. The look of the poster had me thinking it might have taken quite a bit from the TG flicker. Good to know. And even more important is that the movie and now the poster hold fond childhood memories for you. thumbup

You've all heard me whine about losing many classic movie posters to a few unscrupulous dealers way back when.
Now, as I enter my 50th year as a movie poster collector, I am going to focus on finding replacements for those I miss the most.
This week, I scored two.
This 1962 Day of the Triffids one-sheet just arrived and it is virtually as spotless as the pic above -- no tack holes, no tears, no separations... nothing.
I'd show you my pics but Photobucket is on another fucking bender.
Been struggling with that damn site for the last half-hour.
Here are some hotlinked ebay pics from the seller.

My second replacement poster (from a different seller) should be here by Thursday or Friday.
-
Looks fantastic, Ted! Great condition. And one to check off the LONG awaited replacement list. woohoo
-
Thanks Jeff.
I'm quite freaking happy!
woohoo
-
That is fantastic poster, Ted. Congratulations. I have such fond memories of that film, watching it on TV with my Dad when I was young.
Also, the only thing better than a fantastic poster is a fantastic poster in great condition!
-
Man, that thing looks great, Ted. Congrats on another beautiful score!
-
I've been wanting one of those, congratulations thumbsup.gif
-
Excellent stuff Ted, and as you say, amazing condition.
Can't wait to see the next one now.... Friday maybe Eh.. pcorn
-
Thanks movie poster maniacs!
The one I used to have was tacked on my bedroom wall beside my One Million Years BC poster for years.
I bought it from Fred Clarke (Cinefantastique) for $1.50 (those were the days).
It got dirty and faded, torn in a few spots... nothing like this pristine beauty I just received.
I couldn't be happier.
cheers
-
Jeff Iron Eagle is a good movie, but my opinion might be a bit biased since it was one of my favorite movies as a kid......Also that post of T's haul is pretty great. I want the Red White and Blue Halloween Quad!!!!! It goes with the 1 out of 4 Double Crowns I won a few months back.
Ted Triffids is Cherry!!!! Congrats. I also took note of your approval of the Thai Dead and Buried. I seriously need to update my site. The online horror section has around 35 posters, when in reality I have around 100.....

Thats a Great looking poster, Ari. Love the intense colors and the ant imagery, too. Bravo! thumbsup.gif
How's the movie? I would think good since it was directed by Werner Herzog.
-
you have to like Herzog, which I think is usually a case of LOVE or HATE, but I happen to LOVE, so I think its GREAT!
;D
PS- yeah its day-glo goodness.
-
Nice poster Ari, I really like the colors as well and I'm a big Herzog fan myself. I also really like the HOUSE OF BAMBOO Japanese poster and think it's a great film to watch, especially the ending. I don't get jealous of too many things but that DETOUR has got me going! I love the all the promotional material for it but it's always out of my financial reach whenever I see any listed.
Here's a fun Thai poster for HARDLY WORKING. I've never seen the film and hear it's not good but you'd never know by the look of this poster.

Hokey smokes (to quote Rocky & Bullwinkle), boy did I blow it AGAIN by not setting up the notify thing for this month. Why do i always DO that (probably because I always post my 1st of the month post on the END of the previous month perhaps?)...but wow! Wow! WOW!!! Look at all of the goodies!
Here's a Japanese tatekan I just scored for Sam Fuller's film noir HOUSE OF BAMBOO (1955.) Interestingly, this is one of the earliest Hollywood films to shoot on-location in Tokyo, so I've been looking for this foreign poster for a while...
Cool. What IS this tatekan bad boy, dpcarlson? Like an insert? Bigger? I don't know much about Japanese posters, but this is cool. I like the flair at the top. is it in two pieces? Nice.
(http://i479.photobucket.com/albums/rr156/Assgoblin/IMG_8485edit.jpg)
CHRIS, congratulations. Me likes this one, too. I also like the name of the top billed actress...ANN SAVAGE. Ha! I wonder who she was. Never saw the movie...
Here are a few to help get the month started.
Nothing to break down the door, but some welcome additions none-the-less.
CHRIS Oooo I'm not quite hip as to what the Mondo stuff is exactly...but I do like your ROSEMARY'S BABY. Keep going. You are doing super great!

Holy crap, TED! That is AWESOME. You da man! I saw you mentioning this poster elsewhere on here...which lead me to look in here. Dang dude! That is STUN-O-RAMA gorgeous! Oooooo... major jealous! But what is the 2nd poster you mentioned? Hmm. Why the mystery? CONGRATS, pal!
got a few things today, but this is the best.
Hey ARI. That is a super fun piece. The colors just pop all over the place! COOL! It takes place in Australia, huh? Do YOU know where the green ants dream? Fun.
Here's a fun Thai poster for HARDLY WORKING. I've never seen the film and hear it's not good but you'd never know by the look of this poster.
MIKE, Thai posters are just so cool---even for titles which aren't exactly on anyone's radar like this one. WOW! LOVE it. Thanks for sharing.
Good job everyone.
CHEERS!

Thanks, Shawn.
The next one should arrive any day.
Not as striking as my Triffids, but from a film I liked a lot.
I think you have one, actually.
The third I won tonight and I know that you have that one also.
cheers
-
Yep, congrats on a really nice Triffids poster from an enjoyable film. The book's worth reading too, don't know whether you have read it? A bit stiff-upper-lip-English from the fifties but the story still stands out as very original.
-
Monster a GG, hell yeah, I sleep with the ants most nights!
Ted, nice triffids, the 80's BBC mini series is the BEST adaptation of the story though (IMHO;)
-
Bump on the Ants, Ari. That thing looks like it's been in a time capsule.! thumbsup.gif
Thanks, Shawn! Looking forward to your monthly update...
-
Ted, nice triffids, the 80's BBC mini series is the BEST adaptation of the story though (IMHO;)
The one with John Duttine in, it re-surfaced on British tv a couple of years ago. The quality was a bit shaky, (don't know whether it's the film they used but a lot of films and tv series from that era don't look great) but it was more faithful to the book. You might think the BBC would make a few more sci-fi stories given that the re-vamped Doctor Who has been so popular but they seem to stick more with tried-and-tested costume dramas which they successfully flog around the world.
-
yeah, I love it, also there was an even newer version from the UK, few years back.

Thanks, Martin.
And yes, I've read the Wyndham novel.
I actually still have the first edition with cover art by Whitney Bender, 1951.

-
Hey, that's really nice. Interesting pre-film artist's idea of what a triffid might look like. I used to have the orange cover Penguin version but mislaid it.
I also re-read a couple of his others last year - The Kraken Wakes and The Midwich Cuckoos, the latter especially is still very good. Apparently, John Wyndham was a bit sniffy about sci-fi and preferred to call his efforts "logical fantasies" but, whatever, they're a good read.
-
I have the Midwich Cuckoos but haven't read the Kraken Wakes.
Must get a copy.
While we were talking, post office just delivered a few new ones from EMP.
First up is the American one sheet for Spirits of the Dead (1969), art by Reynold Brown.
I wish they would've printed this in 4-color...
(http://i629.photobucket.com/albums/uu12/brude2000/spirits_of_the_dead_intl_WC06989_T_zpsm3f0gaqq.jpg) (http://s629.photobucket.com/user/brude2000/media/spirits_of_the_dead_intl_WC06989_T_zpsm3f0gaqq.jpg.html)
Then another Robert McGinnis poster for my pin-up sub-collection - The Teasers (1975):
(http://i629.photobucket.com/albums/uu12/brude2000/teasers_NS00312_L_zpsdkag1dio.jpg) (http://s629.photobucket.com/user/brude2000/media/teasers_NS00312_L_zpsdkag1dio.jpg.html)
and lastly, my second poster replacement this month.
Not quite as jaw-dropping as my Triffids, but a classic that I had for years and wanted to replace since I lost it.
I do love the design...
1962's Night of the Eagle -- released here in the US as Burn Witch Burn

Hey all, haven't posted in a while but here are some pre-Christmas additions to the stack,
Hard Day's Night (1st Japan release 1964)

-
Three more beauties.
Love 'em all, especially A Hard Day's Night!
cheers
-
Awesome haul, Ted.
Spirits of the Dead was a big one for me on many fronts. First Fellini, first Vadim, and first Bardot...been in love with'em all since, especially the later ;) This film, Cinema Paradiso, and the Butcher Boy were the first to really open my eyes to international cinema as a young teen. Still need to grab some paper from it.
That Burn the Witch is gorgeous as well...
Congrats, buddy!
-
Thanks, Chris.
Its been a good month for my meager little collection.
cheers
-
Another awesome looking Japanese trio there, Devin. way to go. I would imagine that the Double Indemnity isnt all that easy to find.
Congrats on finding a copy! clap clap clap
And sweet haul, too, Ted. Burn Witch Burn is also a poster Ive always really liked the imagery of, also. thumbsup.gif
And Jane certainly knows how to hoist a candle stick. ;D
-
Devon...nice haul, especially the HARD DAYS NIGHT. Groovy.
Ted, congrats on BWB. I do have one --you were right--but what happened to your other one that you need to replace? SPIRITS OF THE DEAD is also uber cool.
-

I won the third last night at EMP.
It was one of the few non-Besson posters available, but was one of my lost favorites.
Can't wait til I get it here in my greedy hands.
And yes, you already have one.
cheers
-
Thanks you guys :D Quite happy with those. The Double Indemnity has popped up 2 times this year but 3rd times a charm!

-
But how were they lost?
I traded 100s of horror and sc-fi posters to a few unscrupulous dealers in the late 60s for comic books.
I had no idea what they would be worth at that time.
I lost Forbidden Planet, The Mole People, Invaders from Mars, Earth Vs the Flying Saucers, The Giant Behemoth and many, many more for what amounted to a worthless pile of comic books.
I was just a kid and they were sharks.
Mofos.

I really enjoyed this film and have been looking for a poster.
That one sequence has haunted me since I first saw it.
Ugh.
Congratulations!

Thanks!
Spoilers Ahead
It started of slow, and then all of a sudden when they entered into their territory it started to pick up quick. I really liked the movie. lol and I know exactly what scene you are referring to lol.

Yes.
T is a bit um modest. WOW!
-
Love the, Memento, Mike!
Killer horror haul, Tob!
-
BIG MIKE and TOB---killer pick ups, both of you.
BIG MIKE, I have always loved CAULDRON OF DEATH -- even though the film is NOT a horror flick and it's just a clever re-titling--and no woman is ever thrown in a vat of acid like that (but there IS a vat of acid in the movie. No spoilers though.) Stunning horror art. And the other two are delicious as well.
TOB, color me green (as in "with envy") over your HOUSE poster. What a bat-shit crazy movie...and an impossible (for me, anyway) poster to get. Bravo, my man! Wow! Wow! WOW!!!
-
Thanks guys! Appreciate the nice words.
-
It's the 15th. I've got my usual post of 10 new acquisitions going up on my thread in just a few minutes. As usual, here is a sample--not the best stuff by far. (Actually there are a couple I am really excited about. It may be worth your while to take a gander at my page this time. I'm not kidding!)
Also, I started a little daily advent calendar, counting down to Christmas Eve when i'll throw up a bonus post and then again on Christmas Day. I may post samples on those days as well. For now, here are these:
BLAIR WITCH:

So you're the one I was bidding against on that one? Well played, sir. Amazing poster for an all-time favorite movie.
-
Sorry! and thanks!! I also really love the film a lot.
-
A few new ones. Couple of UK Quads and German A1. I'm really starting to like the German A1s because they are not expensive, typically carry the same art as US and UK and very cheap to frame due to the size.

Dont say cheap and foreign country on a message board, start a feeding frenzy. Japanese posters used to be as well until someone said the same thing about them :)

It is rather like Box Office Mojo splitting of film revenue between Domestic and International.
Domestic, to whom exactly?

(https://www.dropbox.com/s/9uh9zjxywom112d/rogueart.jpg?raw=1)
The Lobster: One of my favorite films of 2016. Certainly not for everyone, but one I latched on to.
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/oyru7q77k3cv4ym/lobster.jpg?raw=1)
Inglorious Basterds: This is the international one sheet...almost exactly the same as the U.S., but doesn't have the annoying wording in the middle of the upper artwork.

Batman - The Dark Knight: Wildling art

Starry Eyes: An incredible indie horror film, very much in the vein of Lynch or Cronenberg
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/w97di3rn121ashe/starry.jpg?raw=1)
Rosemary's Baby: This is the original Polish poster with art by Wieslaw Walkuski from '84 (first year of release in Poland). This film has become one of my few niche collections. I've been gravitating toward the paper from this film for a while, so I figured I might as well give in.

Rosemary's Baby: Alt. U.S. one sheet. I really dig the layout and halftone artwork on this one.

Congrats to everyone on all of their grabs this month, and I hope the holidays treat everyone well.

that polish RB is my favourite art on the film.
well done.

Hey CHRIS! I agree with ARI on the Polish RB. On the other RB with the inverted cross, I USED to have one but sold it (stupid of me) several years ago for next to nothing---so I'm jealous about that. Oooo STARRY NIGHT sounds interesting and...just what is THE LOBSTER? I may need to see that too? (Do i need to wear a bib?) Bravo on the great pickups!
-
the other RB is kinda full of spoilers isnt it (?)
-
Nice group of posters, especially the Rosemary's Babys.

Thanks fellas, appreciate the kind words.

Sorry! and thanks!! I also really love the film a lot.
Ever seen another one for sale, Tob? I'm still looking for one.

Some new additions from Bruce:

Like the provenance behind this one---from the estate of the artist.

An S2---not springing for an original so long as my wife has any say, so figure this is an acceptable alternative.

Quad.

Missed out on one of these on eBay then saw Bruce had as a fixed price item, so a win after all.

And a print #/300.
Thanks for the look.

Starry Eyes: An incredible indie horror film, very much in the vein of Lynch or Cronenberg
(https://www.dropbox.com/s/w97di3rn121ashe/starry.jpg?raw=1)
I've heard a lot of good on this title but haven't had the time to stream it.
Maybe I should find time right after the holiday?
Nice posters!
cheers

I like the film Kes enough that I broke from my usual habits of buying only Mexican posters and picked up the quad:

And I got this Mexican beauty by Juanino which I had been eyeing for a while:

WOW!!! Super nice. Bravo! thumbsup.gif

WOW!!! Super nice. Bravo! thumbsup.gif
Thanks! I generally find the quality of Juanino Renau's artwork more inconsistent than his brother Josep. But there are some Juanino titles, of which this is one, that I think are truly inspired.

Nice "Kes" poster, from a great film - very envious.

Seems almost time to watch it again.

HepCatPunk: I dig the Polish (?) CLOSE ENCOUNTERS and the LAWRENCE OF ARABIA.
GARGOYLE67: I second what Ted said....I also really like your STAR TREK BEYOND. Oooooo
In just a few hours (as soon as it hits midnight on the APF clock), I'll put up a bonus post on my thread for Christmas Eve. Here's a sample, as usual. The best of the posters are saved for the thread, of course. Look or don't...but have a swell Christmas Eve!

Good to see a fellow APFer picked that up! That is one of the best pieces I consigned to eMovie recently. It's a rad design, and extra nice that it came from the artist's personal collection.

Love THE DRIVER.
Was flicking stations one night and something was on, didnt know what, but it HOOKED ME, couldnt stop watching, turned out it was THE DRIVER, what a film, Walter Hill sure made some great films.

Merry Christmas APFers. I am about to unwrap a bonus Christmas post on my thread. Here's a little sample...just the "stocking stuffers" of the post, really. You can visit my thread if you are curious or not. Either way, celebrate the day! Ho Ho Ho!

Season's Greetings!
CHEERS!

Love that Zombiethon, Monster! All of the names of the films it includes makes it all the better. I wonder what exactly, Oasis of The Zombies is about.
-
Love that Boris Vallejo art on Deathstalker II, Shawn.
That's the only one I am missing from the four films.
Your post reminds me that I have to snag one of them soon.
Also liking that Zombieton.
cheers

bed1 bed1 bed1 My last acquisition. I can enjoy it for a while.
It has some defect (it lacks corner) per the other this quite well

Awesome, Taniaedurne. Super looking poster. Congrats on the pickup!! thumbsup.gif

haha oasis of the zombies is a jess franco movie about a bunch of models on a photoshoot in the middle of the african desert that get GRABBED by nazi afrika corps soldiers. relativley amusing movie if you like franco stuff :) but daft as a brush!

Loving that Forbidden Planet, Taniaedurne.
Beautiful!

Nice one Rich. The elusive 4th style of the holofoil.

CHRIS, like TeamWeapon said, OASIS OF THE ZOMBIES is a cheesy Jess Franco schlock fest. I like it, but it's definitely on the lower end of the zombie movie genre (NOT counting the flood of direct-to-video crap out now).
TED, glad you dig the DEATHSTALKER II poster (which I think is really the least interesting of the four---but, as a collector, it is a "must have") and the "ZOMBIETHON". Ha! You have excellent taste.
TANIAEDURNE: Double WOW-y! Love the FORBIDDEN PLANET posters!
RICH--nice pick up.
-

Sean,
Awesome hall man! The standouts for me are the High Rise, Moon, Girl Walks Home, and Salon Kitty.
I'd say you're making up for lost time!
Congrats.

What a pile of crazy.
Love your taste, Sean!

Wow Sean! WILD, WILD stuff! LOVE it! Bravo!

Great pick ups, gents!
And, Wow, Sean, that is quite the nice haul you pulled in, too! Congrats. Some wicked looking pieces in that grouping! clap clap

Some great stuff from all this month.
Taniaedurne - That Forbidden Planet is awesome, the missing paper adds character. It's beautiful.
teamweapon - The Moon is a fantastic poster, just love the simplicity of it. That 31 is great.
Just a simple one for me.

Nice pickups BASEMAN and DALE.
Jeepers! It's soon to be the very last day of 2016. How did that happen? EEK! Anyway, to send the year off in style, I've created another bonus post for my thread that i'll get up sometime after midnight APF time. Here's my usual sample:

lost river is ryan goblins directorial debut and its a SUPERB movie kind of set in a lynchian universe, cinematography is excellent too, VERY much worth seeing in my opinion. i wanted a 1sht for it but i wont pay $100 for a new poster which is about what they seem to go for.
31 was a putrid unwatchable MESS of a movie i can't bad mouth it enough!
the 2 agrentian posters were also my faves out of the bunch i think? i had been looking for black gold for quite some time. both in really nice condtion as well. a pleasing bunch of paper :)
