Could never afford the A+ TGFH 1S, so I landed the B+ HS for a small fraction thereof:

Could never afford the A+ TGFH 1S, so I landed the B+ HS for a small fraction thereof:
Maybe a fraction compared to the one-sheet (and for good reason of course), but nearly three multiples of what this exact copy brought last time it was at auction - https://movieposters.ha.com/itm/film-noir/this-gun-for-hire-paramount-1942-half-sheet-22-x-28-style-b/a/7113-86206.s?ic4=ListView-ShortDescription-071515#
Mel, have you ever tried to use the "Make an Offer" feature through Heritage? I know several people who have been able to pick up pieces they wanted that way.
I will be interested to hear your opinion of the piece once you have it in hand. It's good that the overall fading doesn't bother you, but the restoration/recreation to Lake's face (as you say, the centerpiece of the poster) is far too much paint for my taste - especially around the eyes and details of her hair. Compare to this prior Heritage sale to see what I'm talking about. Guess this is why T avoids the restored stuff.

Can't really say, out of courtesy to HA & confidentiality, but something.
I've been giving stuff to Heritage and Profiles in History for a while and factually, they both have been kicking ass for me. Getting me better prices than even my sticker, but I haven't been disappointed yet by either of them for sure.

Did you get $400K hammer for something you only had stickered at $240K? faint2.gif
Cause that is really kicking butt.
many auction houses have never even had a single $100K hammer, and Heritage is doing it seemingly every auction. notworthy.gif

That's exactly why. I got burnt before and never again. I will only buy linen if it's the ONLY chance I have to own a rarer poster.

because it's a business arrangement between Heritage and myself.

yes. that's the only reason

you've outed me. I paid $14 for that poster in 1949 when I was in Italy on vacation and to pick up the 12 Action comics #1's I had stored there in a vault beneath Trevi Fountain. They're still mint. Heritage will sell those too.........

My HA Sig slim pickings...
The big one is obviously the French Beauty and the Beast which I got the day before through a private sale and won't receive until September. Folded, mint. More later.

I just received this Dracula's Daughter HS from the first release of 1936, unrestored and in very good condition. I've been looking for the OS for some time, so in the meantime this poster will have to do. I always loved how moody and atmospheric those haunted eyes are...

The HS is BETTER than the 1S IMO:

Good for you Richie. I missed this part of the auction but somebody else came from way behind just a few dollars lower than my top bid.
Mel, have you ever tried to use the "Make an Offer" feature through Heritage? I know several people who have been able to pick up pieces they wanted that way.
set=path%5B5%2F3%2F2%2F9%2F5329884%5D&call=url%5Bfile%3Aproduct.chain%5D[/img]
No, I think I opted out of receiving offers and the prices offered by other are much higher than auction prices.

I'd be curious to know if HA received the HS already in that restored condition or if it was sent out by them to be worked on, before the Sig auction?
Lake's look around her left eye area appeared a little different to me, too (I hadn't read the auction descrip, so didnt know it had been retouched/restored and thought that was how it was printed), and now, when comparing to the unrestored copy, I see what you are referring to, Sean.

That Howl poster art is very cool! cool1
Congrats on the nice, overall haul, too.
-
Thank you Jeff and Mel!
Mel, I agree that the 3S for Dracula's Daughter is very nice, I almost bid on the copy that you linked which was sold by HA a few years back but refrained from doing so because it was on linen. At that time, I refused to buy any linen-backed posters. I have since relaxed my policy a bit when it comes to larger posters (3S, 6S, French 47X63 and Italian 4F) if a folded copy is hard to get. I still like the OS best for that title, I love how simple and minimalist the design is. But I'm happy to get my hands on this HS for now.
-
Hey Michael nice set there. I like the Baby Driver and Graduate. Agree with Jeff the Howl is cool.

A beauty for sure! Congrats, Benjamin!
-
No, I think I opted out of receiving offers and the prices offered by other are much higher than auction prices.
I just noticed that the last time HA sold the TGFH half that it was someone who accepted offers. Perhaps there was a price in between the $597 it sold for last time and the price you paid that could have shaken it free.

Nice piece - and all the items that sold in the Haggard auction went for reasonable prices (I was kicking myself later in the day when I realized I had totally forgotten about the auction).
The Dracula's Daughter 1-sheet is a real rarity. The half sheets, inserts, and lobbies all appear fairly regularly but the 1-sheet just doesn't turn up for sale. I don't believe there are more than five copies known, while I've had that many copies of the TC alone in the last 20 years, for example.

Got these today.

Yeah, completely ridiculous. I have a couple of those that I paid $20 for when the movie came out. Having said that, never forget that $400 to some is like $4 to others. There are a few people at Emovieposter who repeatedly overspend on lesser condition posters that can be found for much less in much better condition. I don't get it, but then I remind myself that if I was a billionaire, I wouldn't care either.

I had this arrive a few days ago.
A French affiche, measuring 23.5" x 31.5" for the film, They All Kissed the Bride (1942), with Joan Crawford, Melvyn Douglas and Billie Burke. This poster is from the first French release in 1945.
The poster art was done by Boris Grinsson.
Signed and dated (45) in the upper right corner.

4 times or so a year, as studio annuals came out, some studios had the annuals bound inside Trade magazines, like Motion Picture News.
That's what both are, the magazines with the annuals bound in.
sometimes during the summer, the magazines would have one-by-one all the studio annuals in sequential issues for about 12 weeks
the magazines are difficult enough to find. this is the one Metropolis is in

I guess a more recent similar pub would be a Variety ad supplement. But not as cool.
I've had quite a few of the magazines with the annuals in them. Unfortunately, too many people take them apart to remove the ads, which I only do when they are damaged. I may take the Metropolis one apart (though I've had it for years, so who knows when that would ever be), but the Kong one is a NM issue, so, no. Naturally, because of this, the bound issues are becoming more rare all the time.

For recent poster,this is the one which really caught my eye,
The new film Mother! by director Darren Aronofsky starting Jennifer Lawrence, Javier Bardem and Ed Harris.
(http://i1074.photobucket.com/albums/w401/angelflyover1/Mother%20poster_zpslbvow6th.jpg) (http://s1074.photobucket.com/user/angelflyover1/media/Mother%20poster_zpslbvow6th.jpg.html)
If I am to interpret the meaning of the image,I would explain it as "I am your mother and I am giving you all my heart.
-
That Mother! art by James Jean is a showstopper.
Might be a bit gory for my taste, but it gets your attention immediately.

Always wanted The Green Slime. Never could find one in my price range. Nice!

"Children of the Damned" (1964) is a rather disappointing sequel to the excellent "Village of the Damned" (1960), which you should try to watch if you haven't already. No need to watch the sequel unless you're a completist like me! Also, you can skip the terrible 1995 remake of "Village" by John Carpenter.

Off topic. Sailing with friends as we speak. Just saw a pod of about 200 dolphins dancing around our boat. First time I've seen so many. Babies too. Quite awesome. Just thought I'd share.
Okay, back to posters :)

So true, Benjamin.
Maybe bronze the DVD/cover and it would make a nice door stop. 8)

My sentiments exactly Ted :)
-
And is Mother a painted poster too? Or just manipulation of images to create a look of paint.
All to say, photo art of a heart-less Jennifer might be a bit too horrific. Even if a horror film.
-
Yes, Mother! by James Jean is total art.
He also did another of co-star Javier Bardem.

I believe there is a pressbook out there. there is a half sheet and window card known several lobby cards.
some more pics of stuff, not necessarily this month's pick-ups, just finally took pictures
(http://www.comic-art.com/apf/apf2017_002.jpg)
here is a pic from 6000 years ago when dinosaurs and man lived side by side. I have it on good authority that this is an actual photo, but it has been colorized.

the key to this card is the gal in the back. It's also directed by Tod Browning

Ok I haven't posted anything for a while so here we go with some new Quads. I got this last week and it was something that I had been after for a long time (well a few years since its release as they were very difficult to get hold of). Pleased to finally get this in my collection of UK Quads.
(https://i.pinimg.com/564x/ef/b9/1b/efb91b2410288e36221c808d95c9c1ba.jpg)
Also a couple more new ones from really great indie films... The very good film "Under the Shadow".
(https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/564x/4b/ab/96/4bab96264facc3846bf18008b73f19db.jpg)
And Hounds of Love. Must see if you like your films gritty and raw. Fantastic debut feature from Australian director Ben Young.

This Japanese animation Quad "In The Corner of the World? that I rescued from the trash bin at work.

Picked up these Uk 1 sheets for the new Blade Runner (but still need the actual Quads which are so far escaping my clutches!

Great selection of posters here.
I hadn't heard of "Under the Shadow," so your post got me looking and I found the trailer.
Think I'll have to watch this one tonight.

I wish I had the snipe "are here":
when the film was coming out, I would walk by the Lefferts Thteare in Queens and the poster was displayed in some format, moved every day to a different frame somewhere in front or in the ticket lobby area. Then one day, I walked by and the snipe had been placed on whatever posters they had up.
-
I had a bunch of them since 1969, some with the snipe and some without.
I'm down to the last one (w/o snipe).
Maybe I shoulda kept one of each...
-
Two of a bunch that arrived yesterday, this one has drawn artwork, nice to see...
