I've had so many posters arrive destroyed that I'm hesitant to post ahead of time. But here's the best poster I've ordered in the last couple of weeks - Star Wars Style C tri-folded. The only major Star Wars poster I'm missing now is the Australian ESB OS. Here is the seller's pic (yes, it passes all authentication tests):

Star Wars Style C tri-folded.
That is awesome. How come it is tri-folded instead of being folded the way most one-sheets were folded?
I love that poster.

Nice Chaney, Jr. stills, Dennis! thumbup
Yeah. As always great stuff!

~ Juli
A substantial percentage of posters from the 1960s and 1970s were "tri-folded" or "flat-folded" like that. They are usually more valuable than copies with the vertical fold.
-
Here are the 10 best other posters I've rounded up in the last couple of weeks other than the Star Wars C shown above:
Beautiful Kilian version:

International Black Swan (from Ireland):

Pretty cool half sheet, although I really wanted the OS:

Striking image from the re-release:
(http://i691.photobucket.com/albums/vv275/Forty_Candles/20011968SSF1972rrStarchild.jpg)
Really want the originals but this re-release will suffice for now:
(http://i691.photobucket.com/albums/vv275/Forty_Candles/ButchCassidy1968SSF1973rr.jpg)
Not really into animated posters, but this is terrific:
(http://i691.photobucket.com/albums/vv275/Forty_Candles/Fantasia1940DSR1990rr.jpg)
Very hard to find this documentary poster - finally found it on Movieposter.com:
(http://i691.photobucket.com/albums/vv275/Forty_Candles/HughHefner2009SSR.jpg)
Cool image:
(http://i691.photobucket.com/albums/vv275/Forty_Candles/CatPeople1982SSRStyleC.jpg)
Found a rolled version of this on Ebay - the folded copies are annoying because the fold goes right through Derek's eye - why didn't they design posters with the folds in mind?
(http://i691.photobucket.com/albums/vv275/Forty_Candles/Tarzan1981SSR.jpg)
A Bond poster without Bond? I'll make an exception for this one:

Very nice Star Wars poster! My brother used to own a movie poster shop in Milwaukee, WI and I looked through his 1000's of posters and most were rolled or folded regular. I don't recall seeing any tri-folded posters. Maybe he refolded them to make them easier to take to conventions

Mel,
The Butch Cassidy poster,does that fall into the category of second run with Academy snipe(im learning) or is it a much later re-release?
I believe it wasnt uncommon for films to be released twice in quick succesion if it proved to be a box office hit..it still happens today

That is the 73rr. Here are the US one sheets and the quad. I agree with HC that the quad is the clear winner for BC since it is in full color.

Love the style 'c' Mel, I will have one one day!
This is probably a bit boring after all your great posters people, but I managed to get hold of an 'Exit Through the Gift Shop' promotional board from Germany just before Christmas. Haven't got a clue about it apart from that... the guy in Hamburg found them in his local graffiti shop promoting the film.

I agree with Harry re: under-appreciated TMFSS. That and THE BEGUILED unfortunately always take a back seat to Clint's more popular Westerns.

As Harry says TMFSS is very underrated. The Quad is a great Eastwood image also, but never goes for much. I'll post it when the Eastwood thread starts.

I dont usually mind folds at all but they can be a bit of a nuisance in modern posters. Still thats a pretty cool poster. I was on it but when I saw the dread pirate alphamel I was outta there and onto greener pastures. :P

Had a fairly quite xmas - poster wise - spending my money instead on vast quantities of alcohol! nice !!!!!

I like the 30x40s because they're rolled. Artistically, they're usually exactly the same as the 27x41 with extra space on the sides. They also fit a standard quad frame.
-
agree totally - but i was wondering why there not as popular & demand better prices - i picked up Logans & billion dollar brain for £25 each & funeral cost £40(+P & P) which i consider a bargain.
-

The extra white space on the sides is a minor detracting factor. I'd prefer a rolled 27x41 over a rolled 30x40. Also, a lot of 30x40s have "crinkles," so collectors may avoid them.
-
I gotta get an Exit Through the Gift Shop poster. That French one is awesome!
-
If you care about folds, 30x40 is a nice alternative on older posters, especially since they're cheaper. I personally do not care about folds, as do many collectors, so 27x41 will always remain the format of choice, therefore making 30x40 a sub format collected by a minority and therefore much cheaper. I can proudly say that I do not own any 30x40. IMO, the extra white borders are extremely distracting.

There is one thing that I don't understand Ari. You must have every Hammer daybill produced on this planet. ;)
-
So far there is one I know exists that I don't have, BUT they made HUNDREDS of movies, most probably never made it to our screens, but you never know. The NON HORROR ones are the hardest as sellers generally dont know they are HAMMER and dont list as such. Ill make a new thread re HAMMER and list all the titles, its scary.
But last count 130+ unique hammer daybills (some are variations in art of the same film though).

The uber-cool Butch Cassidy Style B - a little beat up but I got a very good price and my flip frame will cover up most the issues. Also, since I acquired it cheap, I can afford to LB it:
(http://www.posternirvana.com/0DNE/ButchB.jpg)
-
Not trying to belittle your acquisition Mel as I am sure you are very happy but, personally, I think the Butch Cassidy paper is just terrible!
Yes it is a dynamic image but the layout and colouring just seem so bland to me. Not a poster I would ever pay real $ for.
But then again, MANY people have daybill hatred (I call it envy ;) ) so what do I know?
-
Love the Butch Cassidy. I'm going to have to get me one someday.
-
is it the movie? I know its really a popular poster, do you guys who love the poster LOVE the film?
-
The coloring scheme is deliberately muted and faded to mimic an "Old West" style photo or a "Most Wanted" poster. It's popular because it shows the last scene of a beloved movie, shows Paul Newman and Robert Redford - perhaps the best buddy pairing ever on screen - and is "country of origin."

This may be one for MOPO, but do you all reckon I should do with this... As you often read from eBay sellers, this 1935 WC is in Mint* condition!
*Perfect condition except for 4" section missing from right side and ~10" combined sections from top and bottom.
(http://img267.imageshack.us/img267/9721/photojan1144314pm.jpg)
Seriously though, I of course realize that this WC is severely trimmed. However, from what I can tell it is probably quite rare... between eMovie, Christies and HA combined there are no reported sales for this title of anything larger than a lobby card.* I'm sure there are other early Universal Horror films without significant paper, but I was quite surprised when so little turned up during research. What would be the best course of action to protect its value? Should I leave it as is? Should I have it restored? If the later, there would clearly be some major re-creation going on... and I'm not even sure how they would know what it is supposed to look like. There are no records of PB sales, although Bruce sold a herald with a very similar photo of Heather Angel that might be used. Still, I'm not even sure how a restorer would figure out the original layout. That said, is there any *value* left to protect? Is this thing worth anything? I guess it could make an interesting set of movie themed drink coasters if nothing else... :)
Thoughts?
To be fair, in its trimmed state my WC is actually smaller than a lobby ;D
-
That's a tough conundrum, Harry. If you do decide to restore it, you'll be spending a lot of money doing so. I know that I tend to shy away from MP that's had too much work done to it, but that's just personal preference. That being said, a unique piece like that deserves to be seen in its original form. It's a piece of history, after all

Harry, I did a little digging and all I could find was this. I have a few other resources which I will check later tonight. Cool find, dude....
(http://i629.photobucket.com/albums/uu12/brude2000/OTHER/EdwinDrood.jpg)
-
Thanks Brude. As mentioned, Bruce has a herald which (I assume) uses the same image of Heather Angel. But again, even if I can piece it together, the layout is probably still going to be a problem unless another copy or a complete press book is located. That said, I'm missing nearly 50% of the image... I'm not sure this WC is worth much of anything. I can't tell if it is a good thing or a bad thing that so many old WCs got butchered to use as picture backings. Part of me thinks they wouldn't have survived at all if they weren't re-used...

-
Harry, it's the age old question. When 1/2 the original is there is there any point in recreating the other 1/2? Some will say yes, others no. I am definitely in the "NO" category.
It would not be a restoration but a recreation - likely a VERY expensive recreation at that.
Still, it's got some great colours and it is an interesting piece. I would just try to enjoy it for what it is...but again, it comes down to your personal preference and if you ever plan on selling it. If you do recreate it and then sell, I would still only see it as 1/2 a poster and 1/2 a nice painting/drawing. Certainly others will disagree based on some of the HEAVILY recreated posters I have seen sold.
-
Of course, in my previous post I was exaggerating "1/2" as technically more than 1/2 survives on a purely academic basis ;)
-
Nice B1, Mel. There is currently one on my wall.

This just arrived in the post qip woohoo
Got a bit battered when delivered to the last owner but still beautiful in my eyes... now to work out whether to get a professional poster restorer on the case!? I've never had to do this before so advice from more knowledgeable poster gurus would be muchly appreciated.
There's three lines of dings marks travelling up the poster, bottom left up through Morpheus' hands, and two that go through Neo. Will try and borrow a better camera and upload some proper shots so you can see the damage. Here's a poor quality one but hopefully you can see the line of dings...
(http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh164/ianeastdulwich/MatrixIntl1sLightningdetail1.jpg)

-
Nice one, Agent. thumbup I was a few hours late on that one, but glad to see that it went to a good home. Even though it has a few dings it is still an excellent piece. Congratulations.
-
I was also late on that one NeoLoco!
AP, it actually looks to be in better shape than I was expecting!
It is funny as the known number of these int'l 1-sheets doubled after this one popped up on the radar! The seller already had a folded one (than has since been LB'd) so when this rolled copy arrived damaged he decided to sell it... that is 2. The only others I know of in collectors hands are Holiday's and the owner of onesheetindex.com's. A surprisingly rare poster for such a hugely marketed movie...

Nice, Zorba. I'm digging the The Streetfighter and Escape to Athena, they both look sweet in that format. I'm usually not a big fan of the Polish paper for films but that one is exceptional.

I was thinking of bidding on that Telly poster (a person can never have too much Telly MP after all), but decided against it after seeing the extent of the tears and color touch. Nice win, πατριώτη thumbup

Got some from emovie the last few weeks.

Pettibon (James Coburn): "You know, Chick, no matter what you do, you'll always smell like fish."
Still my favorite Bronson film.
Great poster. Nice haul, Zorba.

Thanks Harry and Neo, being a Matrix nut I've really wanted the Lightning poster for a fair few years! Can't believe I've got it now... still undecided whether to repair and/or linen back it tho.
Really like the art on The Streetfighter, could never mistake Bronson's face!
Nothing spectacular, and not posters so sorry if I shouldn't post here, but a mate knows someone who was in ESB and ROTJ and he managed to get these for me over Christmas.

I have a thick pile of stills for FREUD (1962) by John Huston, an interesting picture, though not a classic. I've put the advertizing and publicity stills together and I think they make an interesting gallery. I've added the snipe texts when available. Use the "show info" button to make the texts available.

Interesting TCM poster. Never seen it before

Here are a few things I have picked up lately. Some came from emovieposter.com, and some came from elsewhere. Either way, I'm just filing some gaps mostly, picking up some pieces I have been meaning to get for a long time.
A rolled copy to go with the folded one

Nice Bisley CENTURION, Schan. I was watching that bad boy... thumbup

So that's who got my Transformer Poster.

Nice rolled Dawn! That one is super rare and I'm surprised it went for so little. There are a handful of rolled special 16mm DotD posters floating around, but yours is only the second rolled NSS poster I've seen... After mine of course :)
-
Thanks fellas.......there are others, but I am waiting until I have proper pictures. It's going to be quite the job when I get back getting all of these things sorted out.
Harry, I passed on a Rolled Dawn advance a couple of years ago........I think the asking price was $450. Stupid, stupid me.

I bought a ripper of a fake Dawn rolled once, sent it to Dan as a joke, seller refused to believe it was a fake. But it was a shocker.

Very cool.......I cant say that I have ever seen a close up of what Lugosi actually looked like without makeup on. I am sure many exist, but I had not really searched them out. Actually, he looks remarkably like Ralph Fiennes.

hey I got Lobby cards from Hansel and Gretel, used to have them hanging on a wall with cuckoo clocks. Theres something creepy about them, and not just that its a story of parental Child abuse, leading to pre teenage runaways, who are captured by a Cannibal.

What is creepy about a duck wearing her sunday best making out with a freak?
-
how do you know what I have planned for the weekend?

Technically not a new acquisition, tbh it was the first poster I ever 'acquired', found it rolled in a derelict art college after me and my brother managed to scale the wall around 1993!
But newly hung and loving it... even with the pin holes, paper loss and discolouration! ;D
I just noticed, shouldn't this have been folded? Can't see any fold lines!

-
Love it! Isn't it amazing to have such a big picture of a director on a poster, even bigger than the stars? I can't imagine anyone having this kind of power today.
T
-
Thanks eatbrie, hadn't actually thought about the discrepancy between the leading actors image and the directors. Have to agree with you tho, the only contemporary director I thought of that MIGHT be able to pull something similar off would be Tarantino... but that's my opinion!
-
I can think of no one who strikes a more distiguishable profile then Mr.Hitchcock. Besides Tarantino and Speilberg the general movie going public would have a hard time picking out most directors in a line up. Well I guess you can through a few former actors in there like Eastwood and Howard.

Dude Paul, you gotta leave some time for the rest of us to catch up. You are continuously coming up with rockin' quads. I know more than a few of us want a couple of days rummaging in just one pile of your quads ;D
As for me, I picked up a Better off Dead soundtrack poster. It sits alongside Real Genius as my favorite 80s comedy; and, like the theatrical one sheet, features Drew Struzan art. It measures 24x36.
The poster

Its an awesome movie with a character that I feel separates it from the rest of the 80s teen comedy genre. I watch it every few months. If you like it, check out One Crazy Summer. It is the same director and also has John Cusack. It definitely isn't as good, but could loosely be called a sequel, and is almost worth watching just for the very interesting Cusack/Moore pairing.
-
Great quads Paul. My favorite - The Lost Hours

Thanks Steve, The colours are much nicer in person, I may have to get a better camera. My good one the images are too big, and my cheap one is as temperamental as a Woman. ;)
-
Schan I think that that 1941 B1 is a cool poster. Dont have to be able to read Japanese to see how they are pitching that movie.
I've seen that poster several times and (until now) never saw the shark teeth.
That is a cool Better off Dead poster, Kovacs. And some nice vintage quads, Mr. Waines.
I must thank Mel for this one, since I may have never been on the lookout for one if he had not posted pictures of his one sheet for the film. Although I am not much of a "follower", various factors made this acquisition justifiable, including the title of the movie. :D I was definitely stoked to see the poster tube upon arrival after spending 9 hours working on my car that I had planned on spending about 3-4 hours on.
(http://i766.photobucket.com/albums/xx303/NeoLoco80/DSC00727.jpg)

Thanks Neo. What is really interesting about that poster is that in that silhouette, it looks pretty clear that she has bikini bottoms on. But in the alternate color versions of the poster, she looks to be nude. Am I off on this one?

Hmmm. My brain must be a little tired since I just spent about 10 minutes looking at the Better off Dead poster and then realized that it was the Follow Me poster that you were talking about. hitself After looking at the pictures of the alternate color versions on cinemasterpieces, I can't tell a difference, but it may be that the line where her love handles are pronounced above her bikini is more visible on the regular style?

Congrats Neo! Follow Me is a rated G documentary from 1969 and the model is very likely wearing a bikini. Unfortunately, everyone thinks she is nude, so I can't take this one to to work.

That Niagara is great... is the design meant to look like a poster on a poster? It's the tan/orangey bits down the left and the right that made me think it was.

I think they are meant to be curtains? It's a re-release poster, and looks slightly zoomed in, if that makes any sense.

Love the Chris Achilleos art, Neo. Now, you've gotta get the Corben Den poster to go with it.
My favorite line from the movie: "You die, she dies, everybody dies."
Congrats!

Cooool Neo - you are the 30x40 king. How many do you have now?
I don't know about being "the 30x40 king", but if you couldn't tell, it is my favorite format for slightly older posters. That's all I can say about them for fear that there would be an instantaneous drop in availability of them combined with a drastic spike in prices, due to everyone rushing to purchase them. :D However, I will mention that I have about a dozen of them, a few of which I cannot post pictures of until I acquire one that is fairly rare, for fear that merely posting pictures of them will cause the previously mentioned dilemma. :D
Love the Chris Achilleos art, Neo. Now, you've gotta get the Corben Den poster to go with it.
Funny you should mention that. I actually just scored the Den poster today and it should arrive next week. Apparently I caught the Heavy Metal bug because I also just scored an uncut sheet of Heavy Metal cards that should also arrive next week. Probably going to look into acquiring some of the magazines also.
My favorite line from the movie: "You die, she dies, everybody dies."
Yeah, that part with Den was cool. The first part was probably my favorite, with the cab driver, but the whole movie is pretty darn good.

This one came in this week. Took 4 weeks in the mail but you get that.

Just got a few German Godzilla posters. These used to be common at flea markets in Germany when I was stationed over there with the Army. They are getting harder to find

Those are some epic daybills, Matt. Some of the nicest daybills I've seen. They look excellent linen backed.
Nice Godzilla posters, M^3.

Yowza, what a poster....

Thought I better get in on the Rocky 2 craze. The white one is a bit rough, but was free which is my favorite kind of poster purchase.
(http://www.movieposters4u.net/images/R/RockyIIINTL.jpg) (http://www.movieposters4u.net/images/R/RockyIIINTLB.jpg)
Up in smoke is an upgrade from folded to rolled.

I absolutely love that The Shining poster. So much better than the yellow one sheet in my opinion. Is that an American one-sheet or something else? I've been trying to locate and learn what kind of poster that is and where I could get one.
~ Juli
-
It is the UK one sheet. That one is a little tough to find, the quad format is much easier to run down.
-
also look in Australia and new Zealand for the UK 1 Sheet SHINING, cos we used them downunder, but will have a censor stamp or snipe added (if that bothers you).
-
I'm not familiar with the second Rocky poster - can you give any more information on that one please Dale?
Mark

It is the right panel of a 1 stop poster.
This is what the completed one would look like (if in english):

Finally landed a Planet of the Apes poster - and I especially like this one given my locale - might bring it to the office:

-
This is one of my most recent acquisitions:
(http://filmartgallery.com/posters/5612_small.jpg)
I second Ted's question... is this a rolled original or is it on linen? Either way it is a fantastic poster, but hoo boy, if that is rolled they will have to invent a new classification of rare for you!
An iconic poster for an iconic movie.

It's for sale here (http://filmartgallery.com/posters-Night-of-the-Living-Dead-5612.cfm), Harry. It's LB. I like Matt and I've bought stuff from filmartgallery before, but I don't think this poster should have been posted as a "latest acquisition" since it's not a personal acquisition.

Very cool Dale - that's rolled, right? Mine is rolled too - a little unusual for a 1979 poster.
How did you get that for free? A folded version just sold for $275 (http://movieposters.ha.com/common/view_item.php?Sale_No=511012&Lot_No=52332)!

Hmm, thats a tough point.
All I can do is come from MY POV, I am and have never been a full time dealer (Actually I lie I was for 6 months a few years ago). But most COLLECTORS at some stage need to sell, or want to sell. And the line between dealers and collects really is blurred, except in some cases (theres a few dealers around here who will admit they DO NOT COLLECT).
For me, I have many thousands of posters, and nearly ALL are for sale, I like to keep certain items/genres/directors/studios/whatever, and I also have over the years bought things, i like/want/think is undervalued/can flip for a buck/whatever.
I have items I bought 10+ years ago with only the intention to SELL, and still have them.
So. what I mean is, latest aquisitions, shouldn't be JUST for COLLECTORS, sellers are also BUYERS, and the best sellers are ALSO collectors. If they decide to put a $ on it and hope it sells. Good on em, they might even seek and rebuy again later (I have done many a time).
Its NOT us and THEM, and the good dealers are also those that love having anything special if its just for a few days, or weeks or months.
PLUS if it weren't for people selling, you would have.... hmm... kinda not many posters.
-
This is one of my most recent acquisitions:
This is closer to a dealer advert than a latest acquision. The post was probably made in all honesty to show a possibly interesting poster. If Kinoart, emovieposter, etc were to post their latest acquisions in these threads, these threads would lose their meaning. I think the thread should only show acquisions that were meant to be kept for a long time. I am interested in seeing what people have bought to put on their walls, or to look at occasionally in a nice moment, what gives them joy. Not what is for sale.

Some amazing posters guys, the yellow 'Rocky II' is great... can anyone tell me why the 'Night of the Living Dead' one sheet with green writing is so rare/sought after?
Just received my German Matrix 'Lightning' 1 and 2 sheets*... not a completonist at all ;D
(http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh164/ianeastdulwich/0MatrixGer2s-1sLightning99.jpg)
* have a look at the colour cast of the two German posters compared to the one sheet (under the other two on the left). I wonder why they gave the one sheet a much bluer cast?
And after finding my framed 'Marnie' last week I wondered what else I'd forgotten I had tucked away... again not strictly new purchases but as they haven't seen the light of day for around 10 years I thought I'd be allowed! :-\
Bought this folded '2010' years ago... great atmospheric art.
(http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh164/ianeastdulwich/20101sheet.jpg)

Very cool Dale - that's rolled, right? Mine is rolled too - a little unusual for a 1979 poster.
How did you get that for free? !
It is rolled,that one I paid for, the one stop panel was the freebie.
-
And now for some oddities!
I found this envelope with a folded poster in it and didn't have a clue what it was, once I'd unfolded it I was really surprised to see it's a 'Hitcher' quad, don't remember buying it but the art is quality with nice bright colours...
(http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh164/ianeastdulwich/TheHitcherquad.jpg)
These two, never fear, I didn't buy them... I seem to remember years ago a friend I worked with knew I collected film posters and gave them to me for Christmas :)
'Smoke' by Walt Disney, nope, never heard of it!
(http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh164/ianeastdulwich/Smokequad.jpg)
And 'The Plague Dogs', from the makers of 'Watership Down'... well go figure!

Looks good to me - I posted a basic authentication on MPC (http://www.moviepostercollectors.com/MPC_Authentication_Lost_In_Translation.html) - skin tone looks natural and it's not cropped like the reprint I purchased (of course, no guarantee that all reprints are cropped like mine).
Did you get them from movieposterzone (Max)? That guy has tough-to-find originals.
-
Mel your website was the first place I went to check the authenticity of the Scarlett 'Lost in Translation'... after checking the amount of building in the top right and the colour cast of Scarlett's head I was happy.
It was Max of movieposterzone who I got them off, sent me photos of the actual posters when asked and his packaging was superb, they're both in pretty damn fantastic nick as well.
-

I'd like to know that guy's story, where/how he gets his stuff. Probably got them for next to nothing and sells to us rubes for $$ and - hypothetically speaking - Uncle Sam remains blissfully oblivious of the profits.

The Hitcher is amazing...that Smoke Quad..would that be starring Mr Ron(ny) Howard by any chance ?

Was really impressed when I unearthed 'The Hitcher' quad, had a look through emovieposter and only found the US one sheet with completely different art... just googled Ron Howard, yep, looks like he's the kid with 'The whole world against him...'!

Not exactly movie posters, but these are pretty sweet....And the Heavy Metal madness begins. :D
Heavy Metal 2000 soundtrack poster signed by Julie Strain. Probably gonna have to post this one in the "girls with guns thread" and a signatures thread also due to it's awesomeness.
(http://i766.photobucket.com/albums/xx303/NeoLoco80/DSC00735.jpg)
An uncut sheet of cards that feature the artwork of various Heavy Metal magazine covers. Another cool thing about it is that it measures about 26"x40" which means I can frame it.

hey guys - i didn't actually post this. one of my guys did. sorry if it was in the wrong section, i wouldn't have posted in this section and just joined the forum. although, i do wonder - since i'm new here - if a dealer acquired something amazing/unique (i don't think a 'night of living dead' 1 sheet qualifies), would/should they only share it in the 'for sale' section? as a full-time dealer who began as a collector and loves posters, every once in a while i come across something that i didn't know existed and think others would appreciate seeing. in a situation like that, where you want to show others something and are doing so without the intent of selling it - would it still be inappropriate to post the image here?
just asking. whatever the consensus is.. is fine by me.

personally I think its fine, its different if a dealer posts every single damn item they buy, which would be nuts, but sometimes something special comes in, if it turns into a sale, then, its good for both the dealer and the collector (isnt it?) AND I also will say again, its always easy after time to spot dealers who collect, collectrors who deal, and DEALERS WHO DONT COLLECT. make up your mind where you go. I suggest the 2 former, but thats just me.
-
I think if it's posted in this thread without the blatant attempt at selling it that's just fine.
If someone is interested, they can contact you privately and inquire if it is for sale.

just asking. whatever the consensus is.. is fine by me.
I'd say it's more appropriate for dealers every couple of weeks to highlight a few of their best posters in their own "for sale" threads. Something like "check out such-and-such, very rare at a great price" etc. Most people on these boards are irritated by sales pitches outside the "for sale" section. I think the way Hideyuki/MoviePosterJapan posts is the right way to go - see this thread (http://www.allposterforum.com/index.php/topic,1803.0.html).
-
ok, but what about when. FOR EG, I get a new poster. I also deal, I might get something I am excited to have. And like to show as new Aq, but, it is/will be/might be available for sale. I personally collect a very specific thing, and a lot of things I buy I intend eventually to sell, BUT in the meantime I am happy to have it, and enjoy it while its in my hands. And often sad to see it go.

Question of intent - if you're posting primarily to sell, it should go in the for sale threads. If you're posting primarily to show off a new poster for your own collection (with a vague possibility of a future sale), it goes in the new acquisitions.
Again, just my personal opinion, but it seems pretty reasonable. I know Jeannie used to go on crusades against disguised sales pitches.
The good thing about APF is that most regulars here use the "show unread posts" features, so they actually read - or are at least aware of - the new sales announcements. On NS4 sales announcements are probably ignored b/c they are in a totally separate section of the forum.
-
Question of intent - if you're posting primarily to sell, it should go in the for sale threads. If you're posting primarily to show off a new poster for your own collection (with a vague possibility of a future sale), it goes in the new acquisitions.
I feel strongly this way as well.
-
Where is Jeannie when you need her? laugh1 She would make quick work of this, as she is one of the most efficient forum moderators I've seen in that area.
Although I do agree with the fact that this is not a "for sale" thread, I can't say that I would mind seeing some awesome new acquisition that also happens to be for sale, just as long as this thread doesn't turn into a big spam fest. Then it would get real old real quick. But I am slightly biased also, as I say this shortly after posting an uncut card sheet (albeit for a magazine that is also the basis for a movie) in the latest acquisitions of movie posters thread. :D

I think Matt at Film Art Gallery made it clear that his post of NOTLD was a mistake made by one of his people.
Dealers who collect and want to brag about an addition to their personal 'collection' should absolutely use this thread to do so.
Dealers who want to post pics of their latest sale items should do so in the For Sale/Auction thread.
We don't want these monthly acquisition threads to become long scrolling advertisements.

Ah - more may be merrier but giving out that info is less jolly!
Like any paper, the good ones are generally expensive no matter where they are listed for sale.
Just keep watching eBay and hope that what catches your eye is not something that tickles my fancy too ;)

Day-um Chris! So are those yours? It was hard to tell from the Mammy thread. If so, I'm sure there will be plenty of people beating down your door to get that Cimarron for their best picture collections! I've heard that one in particular has very little paper available for it...

Hi Harry. Unfortunately, I missed out on the Mammy despite a good battle but these came from the same lot. I have also heard that paper for Cimarron is difficult to come by.

Thanks guys. There really is something appealing about the art/graphics used during this period of history (1920s/1930s)...

Great window cards, Chris...they are bee-yoo-tiful! thumbup

Very cool Voyage To The End of The Universe one sheet from 1964. Of course, we'll have to overlook the "exposed body in outer space" silliness....

Mel, that's false advertising! She's hardly "exposed" ;)

It's an excellent poster anyway Mel, I think she's an Alien with no blood pressure, so there's no problem. ;)

That's a hell of a haul, Mr. Dilts. Would you mind posting a pic of the Legend of the Guardians B1? I was looking at the lenticular for a while but am now thinking about just getting a one sheet. I"m interested to see how the B1 looks.

I would like to see the 4 Lost Boys posters as well... are those Japanese?
My avatar approves of your recent score Stew ;D

Yes the Lost Boys were, will post them next week when they arrive.
Getting a little tougher to get decent material over there, somebody is buying up the good stuff and flipping I do believe. I have been lucky enough to have someone trusting enough to buy and hold for me; which I have appreciated immensely, or wouldn't have 5% of the Japanese stuff I have now.

Dude, you totally stole that from Young Frankenstein!
Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: For the experiment to be a success, all of the body parts must be enlarged.
Inga: His veins, his feet, his hands, his organs vould all have to be increased in size.
Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: Exactly.
Inga: He vould have an enormous schwanzstucker.
Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: That goes without saying.
Inga: Voof.
-
Very nice poster Mel, and what will surprise you even more is the film isn't as bad as you would think. It's quite enjoyable, not a porn movie like the poster implies.

Nice, Neo aka 30x40 Kingpin/Sultan/Czar/Potentante/Uberlord

I've always thought it would be an interesting psychological test to have both the "Lady Frankenstein" and "Maniac" posters hanging on a wall, just to see how people react.

Recently acquired a very rare Japanese poster for the atmospheric gothic horror movie MILL OF THE STONE WOMEN.
(http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b174/ganzheit2/Mill-of-the-Stone-Women-B2proid.jpg)
Interestingly the poster (released in Japan in 1961 I believe) already shows quite a bit of nudity. In the version of the movie I saw, the nudity is only hinted at so this image probably comes from an alternative version or a PR photo.

Not the most thrilling poster, especially after T's excellent haul. But it was only 0.99p and I quite liked the film, well it was about James Whale, and did have an amusing Bride of Frankenstein scene in it!

hi all - must apologise for lack of participation but received a Connect for xmas & ive reverted to a 15yr old computer games obsessive - i think the wife preferred it when i spent all my time collecting posters !!
congrats to everyone for some fine pickups recently - particularly T's french posters,matts daybills & Pauls Flesh & t Fiends.
heres my humble offerings bought inbetween getting to grips with F1
i love my Pixar - ive the 1 sheet version of this as well but prefer the quad for this 1
(http://i746.photobucket.com/albums/xx107/m154cath/UK%20QUADS/P1010001-1.jpg)

First rate piece's Mike, really like the POTC, I may look for one of those myself. I don't mind that Green Hornet either, I hope I don't develop a taste for new posters...
Stew and Ted, Well what can I say. I buy a newish poster and even though it was only .99p you slag it off............... :(
Just jesting, I do agree though, and in my world it would have been James Whale running away from his monstrous creations!! But as I've said before, I only collect posters I like, or from films I like. This falls into the latter.

I still have a back log of poster deliveries to catch you all up on... but I couldn't wait on these two babies!
I figure one modern poster would be out of my reach if I didn't find one soon, this one is going to be it. Can you imagine what us old (and hopefully rich) fogies will be willing to shell out for this uber rare int'l Big Lebowski some day? I was thinking it might be Fight Club, but TBL could very well end up being the defining film of our generation... fuck it dude, lets go bowling. Figured I better get in while the getting is good...

And please let me take a minute to nominate eBay seller "lobbies" to the poster packaging hall of fame. My heart sank when I saw the huge gouge in the triangular mailer... I thought they were toast. How wrong was I! It was like the damn Russian dolls of poster packaging! The posters were wrapped in paper with the ends tucked in, they were rolled smaller than the diameter of the strong-walled tube with good padding on the ends, then that tube was in the cardboard triangular mailer with additional padding on the ends. Everything arrived in perfect condition!

A first rate Haul Ron, Do you have the before shots of the one's that Dario did?
Yeah, see below.
Both were pretty decent. The main problem with Suspiria was the wrinkling, which I found unsightly. There was also a fleck or two of missing paper in the folds. Contempt had a lot of wrinkling on the right edge. No missing paper to speak of, but it didn't look great, and the paper was very brittle.

That Suspiria is fantastic! Can I ask if it is a 1-foglio or a 2-foglio?
Yeah, one of the great horror posters of recent memory, I think. Shame that it's rather difficult to find.
It's the 2-foglio. I think the 1-foglio size lacks a lot of the text. That's my memory, anyway. I believe there's a 4-foglio version as well.

He's done a nice job of those Ron, are they going on the wall?

Thanks for the compliments, guys.
Suspiria is hanging now using one of those aluminum poster hangers. I switch things into and out of those. I want to get a frame for Contempt. Always hard to tell what's actually going to end up hanging, though!
ron
-
Yeah, that Suspiria is awesome. Certainly a feat for the eyes. I own the 1-foglio, which is pretty banged up and I once thought of linenbacking it, but since it's sitting in a drawer, I never did. Maybe one day.
(http://www.eatbrie.com/large_posters_files/Photos/Suspiria2.jpg)
Let me ask you a question though. On mine, the red looks almost fluorescent, it totally pops out. Is it the same on the 2-foglio?

Awesome poster, T. I think that might actually be the nicest version with that design.
My understanding has always been that only the 1-foglio features the day-glow red.
ron

You know, after seeing yours and the work Dario did, maybe I should linenback mine. This is certainly a poster I'd love to frame and hang, and there aren't many I'd be willing to put up. But this one has a real artsy touch to it. I don't use Dario, I use Igor Edelman (well, actually, his assistant, since Igor passed a few years ago.) Maybe I'll pay them a visit this week.

Also, that poster would have a been a great concept for Black Swan. Beats all these ugly designs they came up with. No inspiration, I tell ya.

Would love to see that 1-foglio linenbacked.
A while back, someone on eBay was selling the original art for this poster. Seemed to be legit. I think the asking price was several thousand.

Me too!...Thats one hell of a sweet ass poster!

Hey Ron, since you seem to be more in the know about these than I am, is it hard to find one in good condition, at least better than mine, one that wouldn't require linenbacking?

I saw one on Italian eBay not too long ago. I want to say it went for around $300+, but I'm not positive now. They definitely don't come up too often. Chances are you'd be looking for a while.

Wow, this thread really exploded all of the sudden. I definitely love that Suspiria.........its so simple and classic. I too favor the 1 fogli, mostly because of the lack of credits. I will go ahead and take the quality down a notch or 10, though maybe not so much the rarity as this one is pretty hard to find. Its a definitely throwback to the 80s comedy posters.

Excellent Big Lebowski, Dr. Caul and excellent acquisitions, Velvet, the linen backed ones look great. That Suspiria would look killer linen backed, Mr. Brie. Amazing how something so macabre can be transformed into a work of art. Definitely the type of image that is not soon forgotten after seeing it.

Remember that poster haul I got last year, when my garage was pucking posters and I ended up throwing away 99% of them? Well, there was a full tube of those. I kept one, trashed 49. That's what makes it rare. 49 less.

Thanks guys!
I´m not 100% certain if it is from the 1941 release. Everything seems to indicate it is (Universal logo, printing company, type of paper, text, etc). The strange thing is that it was printed in 1 color...
So, until a full color version appears, the best guess is that the poster is first release.

The screen printing detail is beautiful... the richness in the colors is just stunning. I imagine this is why you Mondo fans are always raving about having to see them in person... only this one is ~50 years old! You can even see how the different inks overlapped during the printing process. From what I can tell, the blue was printed first, then the yellow, then the black. Any time the black ended up getting printed on top of another color it resulted in a glossy appearance that isn't present when the black was printed directly on the matte white paper. Seeing this one in person makes me want that Strausfeld Mean Streets even more!

I picked up this little gem. It has some damage but was very cheap ($8) and should tide me over until i can find one in better shape. If you haven't seen this movie, it is worth a look. Christopher Nolan really hit the ground running.

wow i wanna see those.i can only imagine one for the seventh seal!!!
what year were those posters made?
-
I dont know if the Seventh Seal quad is part of that series or not, but I think not. It comes up for auction fairly often (there may be one still on ebayuk right now), and it does not have that look.
-
Yup, Seventh Seal is part of the series. All of these posters were designed by one person... Peter Strausfeld. Greg Edwards has a great write up on him so I'll just post that here in lieu of paraphrasing:
http://www.rarefilmposters.com/category1770107.html
A fine collection of film posters designed by Peter Strausfeld, an emigré artist who was interned during the War along with Academy Cinema director George Hoellering. After the War Hoellering asked Strausfeld to produce some posters for the cinema which he did in wood and lino-cuts till his death in 1980. The Academy Cinema in Oxford Street, London, was built in 1913 and was saved from conversion to a shopping arcade in 1928 by Elsie Cohen of the original Film Society, who proceeded to run it as an arthouse which is how it was ran till it's closure in 1986. The posters became a London landmark, in fact very few were used outside of London, resulting in very small print runs of 3-500. Most of the posters were printed by the prestigious Westminster Press and later by Ward and Foxlow.
He also has a great selection of Strausfeld quads, including some of the original artwork and printer proofs... there are 8 pages of Strausfeld's work in the above link!
He doesn't have my Seven Samurai though... ;)
Here is the Seventh Seal poster:

And of course, the one everyone wants, Mean Streets:

Well, I may be a minority here, but I really think all of these are hideous, especially Mean Streets that sells for so much money. This is one poster that I will never own.
T
-

It was an art-house theater so I'm guessing most of the posters coincided with the original theatrical release... by that, though, I mean the UK release. If you look at the text on most of them they almost look like "review posters"... meaning they might have already made the rounds in their home countries or elsewhere before Academy screened them. For instance, I'm fairly certain that my Seven Samurai poster coincided with the original UK release of the movie... however, I doubt it was printed in 1954. I would guess more along the lines of late 50s or early 60s.

I'm kind of surprised T.... had Strausfeld jammed every character and extra in the film onto his posters we would all be praising these as the latest Tyler Stout release! I think the Stout was definitely influence by Strausfeld, whether he knew it or not...
-
Those Strausfeld posters are sha-mokin, IMO. Nice, classic artwork. Thanks for posting those links, Dr. Caul. Some good reading with a great look at the history and quality of those pieces.
-

I really don't like his work. De Niro doesn't look like De Niro on this drawing, it's not even esthetically pleasing, at least to me. Since you're comparing it to Tyler (I don't really see the connection, but I'll go with it), at least Tyler's characters are appealing. Strausfeld work is just ugly. Again, it's my personal opinion. Maybe I'm old school.
T
-
I see a lot of parallels between Stout (and many of the Mondo artists) and Strausfeld with the stark, stylized black & white drawings and the judicious use of color. But keep in mind I'm talking about that general style and, specifically, its use in movie posters. I'm not claiming Strausfeld invented it or anything... I know local artists have been using simple screen prints for many years. And I think comic books popularized that style well before it was ever used seriously in movie poster design.
By the way, maybe you don't think it looks like De Niro because De Niro didn't really look like "De Niro" back then. I thought he captured him pretty damn well!

Very nice Matt, now we'er talking.
I was keeping quite on the Strausfeid Quads, I have had many chance's to buy them over the years very cheaply, but don't own one. They are not my cup of tea, I know quite a few buy them, but they are not for me (sorry Harry). I believe most are from the 60's, which is an era I collect from, give me a Chantrell any day.
This is what collecting is all about, if we just liked the same things it would be pretty boring.

Paul, you are not wrong. I'm pretty hot for Italian stuff right now. I bought a few too many a few weeks ago. I have them photographed now.

I'm not trying to convince anyone to like them, just explaining why I see a connection to the recent art print market.
By the way, if you have a chance to buy either the Mean Streets or the Badlands "very cheaply"... you'll let me know, right? ;)

Mondo, those are some first rate Italians, I wish I could afford some more myself.
I do understand what you were saying Harry, All I meant to say was they are not for me. I know quite a few collectors who do buy them, I don't know what the attraction is of them, but as I said each to there own.
And you can rest assured if I come across Mean Streets, or Badlands, your name's on them Harry (I hate to say, Mean Streets is one I turned down many years ago).

thats how they shipped it to him duh!
-
I forget what the stamps are for, but I have a few Italians and Belgians that have them. I'm not sure if they were used for mailing or for some sort of tax...
-
They are tax stamps. They are primarily on Belgians and Italians (Italians often also have a series of holes punched in one side that form letters and numbers). Since there are so many fake Belgians, collectors like the stamps because they prove originality. There are no fakes of Italians I know of, so that isn't true of them.
I once had an Italian Intermezzo (the one with Howard and Bergman) that had a tax stamp that was dated 1943, proving the movie played in Italy during WWII, when they were our enemies (apparently Ingrid Bergman's beauty trumped that)!

Gotcha.
There are a few others in this series, some Ingmar Bergman titles, I believe.
I enjoy the Strausfeld quads. I posted a Buster Keaton one earlier in this thread. Here it is again:

Harry, just saw your post now after being in the sun for a week...
Not sure what is going on with the second Cimarron but I too can only assume that it has been coloured in (for fun maybe?).
I have not seen another Cimarron in colour and of course the seller conveniently omits any reference to it in the listing.
It's puzzling because the colouring job doesn't look all that terrible to me!

Great price...great service... Thanks, Rich!

Harry, just saw your post now after being in the sun for a week...
Not sure what is going on with the second Cimarron but I too can only assume that it has been coloured in (for fun maybe?).
I have not seen another Cimarron in colour and of course the seller conveniently omits any reference to it in the listing.
It's puzzling because the colouring job doesn't look all that terrible to me!
If this was colored by hand, they did a good job. Look at the side of the face and hand holding the gun with the brown and more yellow highlighting. If this had been randomly colored, why not just do those areas in just the brown. Was some attention paid to detail, that's obvious to see. It Is it possible some of these WC were printed in color? Stranger things have been known to happen.. ;D

One of my all time favourite films with you know who.
I don't think I have seen the movie, maybe when I was 4 so forgot. I have heard of it (do I get a point for that). The blonde looks nice. Is she the one? Wonder if the cable car scene was shot there for real. Nice ones. I should collect some photos/lobbies instead of just art.
Another 4 Fogli (55"x78") in today (Crowded Sky, 1960):
(http://www.mysterycorp.com/temp/P1040741_mod_1000.jpg)
-
Clint is the one, I'm a big fan but the Blonde is Mary Ure and Ingrid Pitt are two hot babes.
The cable car scene is real with stuntmen tied with ropes you can't see but the close up shots were done in the studio. It's a great flick with Cinema Retro dedicating a special edition magazine to the film.
Crowded Sky looks fab, l might have to suss out the daybill for that one.
-
I've been after this one for a while now... this was one of my favorite John Wayne movies growing up and I don't know of a better modern-take on the Duke.
By the way, when I was a kid, Dern pretty much epitomized evil for me... however I have grown to greatly respect him as an actor over the years. If anyone here hasn't seen it, definitely check out the doc "A Decade Under the Influence" about 70s films, actors and directors. There is a great scene of Dern reminiscing his conversation with the Duke about the pivitol scene where he will have to shoot Wayne (in the back no less). Wayne said "America will hate you for this." Dern replied (with a grin), "Yeah, but they'll love me in Berkeley!" Classic.
My max bid was more than three times my winning bid so it is fair to say I'm happy with the result! I think it will look great next to my Strausfeld Seven Samurai...

That Crowded Sky 4-Guido is just oh, so beautiful. I love the shape its in, not pristine...fits the bill for the visuals there.
Harry C.- that is an interesting piece, I have never seen it before. On one hand, the design of it contradicts the feel and aesthetics of a cowboy film, yet alone one with The Duke...but this is so unique that the cool factor is way up on it.
Dern is cool, did you see Tattoo? Supposedly, he and Maud Adams weren't 'acting' in certain scenes at all. Lucky dude.
-
Dern was the source of that "scoop", but Adams said he was lying through his teeth, and I think he later admitted he made it up to increase the box office.

Yeah, that Suspiria is awesome. Certainly a feat for the eyes. I own the 1-foglio, which is pretty banged up and I once thought of linenbacking it, but since it's sitting in a drawer, I never did. Maybe one day.
(http://www.eatbrie.com/large_posters_files/Photos/Suspiria2.jpg)
Let me ask you a question though. On mine, the red looks almost fluorescent, it totally pops out. Is it the same on the 2-foglio?
T
I have the 1-foglio, too, though in somewhat better condition. I love the use of day-glo red (looks almost orange in pictures, but it looks fantastic live):
(http://i524.photobucket.com/albums/cc324/Thomsen1973/Plakater/HPIM0511.jpg)
The 2-foglio that Ron posted is also quite rare as most of the 2-fogli did not use the motif of the ballet dancer but instead used a photo. The regular 2-foglio is much more easy to find, but Ron's version also pops up every now and then. I still need to get one myself. The 4-foglio has the same motif and seems to come up for sale more often. There was a beautiful copy for sale of that on ebay.it just a couple of weeks ago.
Btw. did I understand correctly that Ron had his 2-foglio linen-backed by Dario? I did not think he backed large sizes?
-

One of the additional reasons I like this poster is that the title translates to simply "Cowboy"... which can more or less sum up the Wayne in any of his films. So even though it is quite abstract, even if you aren't a fan of his movies or even know about the particular film "The Cowboys", nearly anyone can still recognize and appreciate this particular piece as being the Duke through and through.

Nice Messalania poster Ted, you may not of bought much, but that's jollyfine.
Great Lobby's Matt, also one of my top 5 War films, if not the top one. Couple of nice shots of Ingrid amongst them too.

Beautiful piece, although I'm wondering why it looks so orange? Are you sure they didn't do 2 color schemes, or is your picture completely off? After posting my picture on the forum, I decided to linenback it. It's at the shop right now. I should get it in a week or so. Can't wait. I don't linenback very often, but this one, I'm actually thinking of framing and putting up.

Just bought this poster from The Thing from a dealer in Japan. Great movie and this is one of the better posters on the film since most try to hide the monster

Who cares about the missing border piece when you've got a dangerous dame Steve! It's a great poster.

True Chris and love the colours in Quantez!!!

Thanks very much Chris, Matt and Wonka!
Photographing the 6 sheets nearly kills me every time as I:
- stand on the edge of a chair,
- one hand above me pushing up against the ceiling wedging me down to the chair,
- then stretching out with my other hand as far as I can, to about center of poster with camera flat against ceiling at the end of my finger tips trying to hold camera and press the button at the same time.
One of these attempts I'm going to fall off the chair, crash down onto the poster which will get badly ripped, and possibly end up covered in some pieces of poster (or pieces of me!).
I know I could take the photo at an angle and correct it in photoshop but the result is not as good.
-
laugh1 I know the feeling, nearly slipped myself once with a 3 sheet.

My picture is somewhat off. I tried to take several pictures, but I was not able to match the color tone in the picture with what my eyes saw in any of them. It's probably because I have a shitty cheap camera.
However, if the colors were originally supposed to match the tone of the red in the non-day glo 2- and 4-foglio, then they have definitely faded some on mine. My copy has an orange hue to it, though not as bad as the photo let's you think.

I love the set up. Saved the pic last time you posted it. I have done a lot of studio flash photography (models, not posters ;) ), just need the space at home. I guess 3 flash heads are triggered wirelessly from the 4th? Is that a video camera tripod?
-
Yeah, Bruce's set-up is great!
A photographer friend of mine said I should do this, but I have NO IDEA of how to do it, or where to get the gear.
I was quoted by a professional photographer (someone who does the photography for some auction houses etc) that for 500 posters I would have to pay £18,000 !!! puke2 You can imagine my reply laugh1
My friend told me it is very expensive to do, but he has never done it himself (for posters) so how much is this likely to cost??
I've just bought a Nikon D80 by the way ... An old model, granted, but I need it as the images I have taken so far are not that good when you zoom in on them, and I don't feel the need to buy a newer SLR as this is my first one!
Any advice Steve? Or Bruce? Or anyone else??
Best,
Ad

White cotton gloves are essential

You could:
- hire the studio gear to take to your place (ask at the bigger photo equipment stores who hires out)
- hire a photo studio and the studio manager surely will help with the setup of lights and get you started. 10 years ago it cost me £40 per hour but that also included a model.
- find a keen photographer friend who has a couple of flash heads (and leads etc) and borrow theirs to take to your place and see how it goes.
I suggest getting assistance by someone familiar with using indoor lighting equipment to get you started off correctly.
If you have problems with quality when zooming in, that is just likely because the lighting was not bright enough causing a higher ISO to be used introducing graininess, or you weren't using a suitable tripod for stability.
Note, any artificial lighting needs to be positioned to the sides, (not overhead to avoid flash reflection), and close to the surface as Bruce's image shows. An umbrella or softbox is needed to diffuse the light more evenly
500 Bond posters???

Dude, I do not know what kind of camera you have, but a couple of pieces of adhesive backed velcro are your friend. Put them on the camera and then on the ceiling. Set the camera on a timer and just stick it up there. If you want to get really fancy, you can even drop a plum bob to know where the center of the poster needs to go. The velcro peels right off, and a little bit of goo-gone removes any residue.
And for Adam, I can tell you that a good source for the metal board is one of those large white dry erase boards. You can sometimes find them for cheap at used office supply stores. The large ones are big enough for most posters and are metallic for the posting of bulletins and such in offices. Or you can go get some sheet metal and have it powder coated, but that will cost you more.
-
Schan,
Good call - I already have one of those magnetic white boards - how useful are they!? sm1
Steve,
The camera I was using (still until delivery of the D80) is a Panasonic Lumix FZ5.
I'd rather not hire out the gear - I may ask the university I study at what they could provide?
I'm quite pally with a couple of the staff with being older than 99% of the students - seem to get on better with the staff ha!
Can you email me about the photography issues please, by the way - I don't want to hijack this thread as it's about latest acquisitions?
Though, technically, I have made an acquisition in the camera lol!
And yeah, probably 500 posters, Steve.
Possibly more, as I just did a count on one of the lists for the first four Bond's (all unique posters, no duplicates):
DN - 45
FRWL - 40
TB - 54
YOLT - 73
That's why it's taking so long to do!
Best,
Adam

No, your eye's are quite correct Ted. I haven't defected yet though. 8)

Gotta dig the artist's rendition of the Mummy in that poster.. as shown, he's only a wee bit smaller than Mighty Joe Young or Son Of Kong (based on the size of the girl in his hand)... wow1

Just got this beauty from Italy:
(http://i524.photobucket.com/albums/cc324/Thomsen1973/Plakater/Forze_del_male.jpg)
Quattro-foglio by Averardo Ciriello for Abraham Polonsky's FORCE OF EVIL (1948). I am not sure what year the poster is from as it is not dated, but probably a few years later?
I was surprised to see how strong the yellow color of the title was. It has not faded even the slightest - as opposed to the copy that I nearly bought from Posteritati a couple of years ago.
The poster appears to be in very good condition. A bit brittle along a few of the fold-lines as is to be expected of a quattro-foglio of this age (they were often printed on crappy paper). The only real defects are two small holes in cross-folds in the upper part, one with a tiny bit of paper loss. The paper loss turned out to be much less than I had expected, though, from the photos the seller had sent me beforehand. In the seller's photos a small flap was bent over and the hole therefore appeared larger. In reality the loss is probably only around a cm² or so - and both holes are in black areas of the poster, so they should be easy to mend.
Best thing aside from finally getting one of my unicorns, is that the girlfriend just "accidentally" spent a lot of her paycheck on new and expensive shoes - so no complaints about my purchase from that direction. ;D

Grats Thomsen. She really is a beauty.

I'd say filmartgallery and majesticposters are low/mid price retailers. I know the owner (Matt McCarthy) routinely buys posters from the auctions and flips them for 2-3 times the auction price, which is relatively moderate compared to the 5-10 price markup other dealers (cinemasterpieces, posteritati) charge.
I paid $595 for it, which is a 50% markup above the average $400 auction price (http://www.emovieposter.com/imagearchive/poster/265971.html) for LB copies of the domestic poster. Normally I'd wait for the next auction but I'm having an apartment showcase tour showing next month, so I'd like to get it set up for the tour. (If I can get motivated to spend a day rotating posters....)

Matt McCarthy is a good dealer. He has an excellent eye for spotting undervalued items, and the market tends to go his way on things he prices on the high side.

You've gotta give yourself more credit, bro. I'm sure when people see your place they may be a little like a deer in the headlights at first, (like people somewhat are when they see my abode), but most of the people who are fans of movies from any genre think it is awesome, not just because of beau coup posters/frames but because I don't have a wife telling me I can't do it. :D

Btw. did I understand correctly that Ron had his 2-foglio linen-backed by Dario? I did not think he backed large sizes?
I think Italian 1-panel (aka 2-foglio) is now the largest size Dario does.
There was a 2-panel on eBay recently, as Thomsen notes. High asking price. In addition, I know of a dealer who's had them in stock for a while, but he wants something like $800 each for them.
I was quit happy to find the 1-panel in decent shape.
Glad to hear Thierry's getting his backed.

Hooray!

Blues Brothers one sheet purchased from Ron Borst (HollywoodMoviePosters on Ebay (http://myworld.ebay.com/hollywoodmovieposters/)):

Elwood: What kind of music do you usually have here?
Claire: Oh, we got both kinds. We got country AND western.
-
Whoa! Killer! Shame about those old Italian posters always being so brittle. Do you plan to back it?
Oh, definitely. I think that's the only way to go with this as those fold-lines will get more and more damaged every time I take it out for a look. I plan to back it and have those two small hole restored. Will need to save up a bit first as it probably will cost the same as the poster.
First thing is getting a projector and a Blu-ray player, though, so it will have to wait till autumn. In fact I used part of the money I had saved up for the projector for buying this poster. Couldn't say no to the offer I got from the seller (€300 less than the last offer I got from him a couple of years ago).
Oh, congratulations on the lovely daughter to Matt! Flipping the bird at that age... she's going to be a handful! ;D

Thanks for the kind words everyone. As you may have noticed, I haven't been posting as much... she is quite the handful indeed!

beautiful baby girl Matt! Enjoy every minute of it, because the saying, "they grow up fast" is indeed the truth.

But the even better news is that you'll no doubt be selling your collection to pay for diapers, so I'm happy to take your Get Carter and Big Lebowski international at cost :)

Matt, cool beans.
Which venue did you score this, if you don't mind me asking?

Matt, cool beans.

eBay. The seller listed it as pick up only, but when I inquired about shipping they said of course they could ship. I wouldn't say I got it cheap, but I'm sure that helped keep the price down.
-
Nice.
Scoring well in ebay (price or wanted/unique posters) is quintessential 'finding a needle in a haystack'. I would offer that the haystack just keeps getting bigger and bigger lately, and thus is causing my eyes to water. Ha. Getting more challenging, I feel.
Great poster!

I think 'Fatmall' must have an endless supply of these, as well as the other Elm St. titles in Thai format.
For some reason I remember seeing these from him/her over the years several times, to be sure.
-
When you think about it, that Elm Street poster has some quite horrific imagery, but at the same time has some quite daring imagery in respect of the female character looking like she is having an orgasm ... jawdrop lol
-
Can't blame her for the orgasm, a huge penis-shaped Freddy devouring her legs has to be the ultimate turn-on.

Some artists/designers are very clever with the use of imagery.

Title: The Iron Giant
Studio: Warner Bros. Animation
This is an original production sketch done during the character design phase for Dean McCoppin from The Iron Giant. It's drawn on "acme punched" animation paper, which is characterized by its unusual hole punching on the bottom of the page.
The bottom left corner has an ownership stamp from Warner Bros. that reads: "This material is PROPERTY OF WARNER BROS. FEATURE ANIMATION. It is unpublished and must not be duplicated in any manner without written permission from an authorized officer of the company".
Beside the ownership stamp is director Brad Bird's (The Iron Giant, The Incredibles, Ratatouille) approval signature that could signify one of two things:
1. The artist (currently undetermined, I believe it to be Shane Prigmore, and I'm trying very hard to get into contact with him) has shown himself capable of drawing Dean McCoppin and will be animating the character from here-on.
2. This is a finalized model sketch of Dean McCoppin and will be the version utilized for the production of the film.

Nope - I bought it from an art gallery that primarily specializes in production artwork for animated films called Van Eaton Galleries. They have some pretty magnificent stuff, but their website is crap. Regardless, I couldn't be more pleased with the paper. It came with a certificate of authenticity and she told me the number of Iron Giant artwork came from somebody named Shane Prigmore.
A little Googling reveals he was an animator on the Iron Giant (probably an in-betweener) who has now become a Head-of-Story at DreamWorks. He has a blog, but unfortunately (and expectedly) there is no contact information. If I can verify he drew it I'd love to have him sign it too.

Yeah, that's a first-release Breathless, as far as I know. The only 4-foglio that I've ever seen. Art is similar to the smaller French version.
I was after the J&J for a while as well. Wasn't cheap, but I sold some other stuff to pay for it.

YES!!! I was lucky enough to score this unicorn from lazarson3 (http://myworld.ebay.com/lazarson3/?_trksid=p4340.l2559)a few days ago. The best paper for the film IMO. I'm pretty sure emovieposter sold this same one a couple years ago for about half the price, but I am still definitely stoked to have scored it and the markup from the seller I bought it from was definitely fair. Unfortunately, now I know what foxing and creases on card stock are. :D Given the rarity of it, I was more than willing to accept the minor flaws, and I'm confident that Poster Conservation can make it look like new again (will let y'all know how it goes). YES!!! ;D

It is sweet getting one you have been hunting.

I agree that it is the best paper from the original campaign.
Yeah, I think the faces with the descriptions add some character to it. I'm not sure why the 1964 re-release is so popular. It's pretty nice, but is lacking something IMO.

Absolutely. There should be a name change from "poster collecting" to "poster hunting" because it really is a search for a lot of them, unless of course you're Chuck Norris. :D "Chuck Norris does not hunt because the word hunting implies the probability of failure. Chuck Norris goes killing."

Dude, after scoring this, you should post a video of you, your posse, and your goddesses shouting "winning, winning, winning" a la Sheen. In your case it would actually be true :)

That makes me fill slightly inadequate with my measly one sheet. I do prefer the title placement and the use of space on the 30x40.
-
I'm not sure why the 1964 re-release is so popular.
Pretty sure it's because of the pool imagery, which is absent from pretty much everything except the lobbies from the first release. If you're going to hang something next to your pool/billiards table, that's the one to have. Pretty odd actually, makes you wonder if there were contractual obligations for the posters.

Nothing wrong with the one sheet, bro. All the paper for the film is sweet.

You're probably right, about the pool imagery which makes it popular. "Contractual obligations", you lost me on that.
That one is worth investing some money in.
Yeah, I don't try to predict how much stuff will be worth in the future, but I do think that it (as well as all the other paper for the film) are good investment pieces.
Incidentally, the six-sheet has an incredibly similar image.
Bruce
The 6 sheet is a beaut, only thing is (of course) the six sheet would take up the space where 5 other posters that are about one sheet sizes could be on the wall, but an image like that is an awesome one for a poster that size.

congrats on that, my all time favourite film. The re release may show pool balls, but the film is altimately about redemption, lose, hope, regret, love, losing, winning and the first release shows that in spades. I have the Belguim for the title and it is easily my most prized poster.

Oh, and Neo, that Hustler 30x40 is awesome! I am a sucker for cardstock material anyway, and even more so when it features unique art. I will be very interested to see what a restorer can do with the cardstock. Keep us updated!

Dang Paul, I thought this was a Lindsey Hohan flick?? Oh wait, never mind; some idiot, clearly not in their right mind, thought that it would be a good film for a remake. They probably wanted something, anything that Lindsey could actually pull off. Anyway, I like the quad. Do you know who the artist is?

Absolutely no idea, I will check though.

Adjustment Bureau (above average for a current release I'd say):
FYI, it's 'inspired by true events', not a documentary. The trailer looks pretty sappy. The 'Never Say Never' in the tag line has to be a Bieber reference...
The AB onesheet is, unfortunately, far better than the film.

Some nice gear there, Matt!

That Down to Earth daybill is beautiful!
You can say that again.
Great posters all, Matt!

I got my Dark Knight "Why So Serious" poster in a couple of weeks ago but didn't unroll it until today. I took a bunch of photos of different parts to check against MPA's guide on the original...and silly me I didn't take a shot of the whole poster before I rolled it back up and put it back in the plastic. I'm paranoid to take it out again before I get a frame for it but I will for sure take a picture then. I guess I can post the partial shots instead. I was very excited to finally see it, I think it looks great!
Here's the album with the part shots http://img717.imageshack.us/g/dscf2011q.jpg/ (http://img717.imageshack.us/g/dscf2011q.jpg/)

Dear Matt,
You are a bastard.

You never cease to crack me up, Chris. :)
Thanks guys.

(http://i746.photobucket.com/albums/xx107/m154cath/US%201%20SHEETS/P1010004-4.jpg)
Animal House Quad - in perfect nick & a good example of quad & 1 sheet versions being equally,in my opinion,impressive
(http://i746.photobucket.com/albums/xx107/m154cath/UK%20QUADS/P1010003-4.jpg)
Spy in the Green Hat Quad - big thanks to Paul for his advise on this one. the picture doesnt really do it justice. it looks great.
(http://i746.photobucket.com/albums/xx107/m154cath/UK%20QUADS/P1010002.jpg)
The Sting quad - & yes i would probably prefer the 1 sheet but the missus is a P. Newman fan & if it keeps her happy so be it!
(http://i746.photobucket.com/albums/xx107/m154cath/UK%20QUADS/P1010007.jpg)
The Hills Have Eyes Quad - not really a horror fan but just liked the poster & it was cheap
(http://i746.photobucket.com/albums/xx107/m154cath/UK%20QUADS/P1010006-2.jpg)
Herbie Goes Bananas Quad - What can i say? great fun & when i was a child i loved the movies.

Island at the Top of the World Quad - just a great poster
(http://i746.photobucket.com/albums/xx107/m154cath/UK%20QUADS/P1010003-3.jpg)
Metropolis Quad - Finally got this back from the framers - i just need somewhere to put it. all the walls are already full & im just waiting for the bedroom to be finished so it can take its pride of place
(http://i746.photobucket.com/albums/xx107/m154cath/FRAMED%20POSTERS/P1010001.jpg)

Jollyfine bunch Mike, I'm guessing the Kitchen is finished. ;D The Spy in the Green hat looks excellent. No thanks needed, Any time.
Nothing wrong with the Herbie films, I have all the posters too. It's a bit worrying our tastes are very similar... ;)
-
I've said it before but it won't hurt to gush one more time - the Metropolis is fantastic framed up
-
Mike, nice posters!
And that 'Island at the Top of the World' Quad is very, very nice - bet it looks even better in person!?
-
More great quads, Mike.
SPY IN THE GREEN HAT is way too cool -- and HERBIE rocks. thumbup

If I remember right, Island at the top of the world Quad has 3 versions...

And if its the real deal and not a repro or reprint. :-\
It's a gamble you always take, but the reprint is easy to determine. When I get it all I have to do is measure it, but he says its 27x41. While he's not an all-out-poster dealer, he has some valuable memorabilia, like prototype ET movie posters he got straight from Universal. I feel pretty comfortable with the purchase.
It's the studio version, not the NSS one. And to my knowledge the studio reprint is undersized at 27x39ish. So if it measures correct and there are no tell-tale signs of a reprint, I won't be worried.
-
I know which poster you got. I almost bid on it because the price was so good, but since I already own a few of those, I passed. Rest assure, you got the right one, it is legit, and at the right price.
Congrats.

Nice ladies and Mad Dog, Mel. Lovely ladies and Mad Dog 20 20 is a good combination too. :D I've never seen that Cleopatra Jones before, but it is sweet and "funky" is a good word to describe it. That chick with the Uzi is sexy and those are some cool designs and colors on it.

A few that I picked up tonight from Bruce... the big Czech's seem to be somewhat scarce. I'm especially loving that Pierrot le Fou. I think it might be my new favorite paper for the film.

Agree on those Czechs Harry.
I was watching both the Raging Bull and the Once Upon A Time in The West. Also the Pale Rider that I think T got.
The big czechs are cool.
-
Big Czechs are great. The only problem with the really good ones is that you have to write a big "czech" after you win them!
-
Harry, that RAGING BULL is friggin' wicked!
Nice scores!

Meet a czech girl a few days ago. I mentioned I collect posters (yeah, what a dill I am)... well anyway, she likes posters and today sent me a link to a czech poster site Terry Posters (http://www.terry-posters.com/posters). You may know it, maybe not. I think they are all originals, looks like they have over 5000 czech posters for sale. They have Raging Bull (http://www.terry-posters.com/poster/7789-raging-bull). They also have 700 original czech posters for 4 Euro each (http://www.terry-posters.com/tag/72-discount-700-posters-for-4-eur)

Thanks 50s... makes me feel like I got a good deal on my Pierrot le Fou!

Ain't that the truth.

I glanced at the site and most of what I saw are little Czechs, and not big Czechs. Maybe I missed the place where they have the big Czechs, but remember that with Czechs as is true of many other things, size makes a huge difference.

Actually, I find that the little ones are great for framing. My available wall space is dwindling, the designs are always the same as their big brothers, and UV/frames from Sue are cheap in that size... seems like I can always squeeze another one in somewhere :)
By the way, if you are looking for the big ones, he does have those too... just go to the page for the film you are interested in and use the little drop down box in the upper right to select the bigger size. It defaults to the smaller size (and he definitely has way more of those), but there are some big ones too... usually at much higher cost though! Just look at the price disparity between his small and large Pierrot le Fous (http://www.terry-posters.com/poster/9377-crazy-pete-1)... there is more than a 10x difference!

Like I need another beauty poster? Yep, I think I need one more:

Night Orgy of the Vampires - an extremely cool and rare Italian one panel I've been seeking for a long time. The traditional gender roles are reversed!
Some one posted this on NS4 - not sure who to credit for this.
Very difficult to find - I finally located two - let me know if you're interested in the other.

Bought this second release poster for Jaws to replace the LB Jaws that didn't work out. The good news is that it's a lot cheaper and the image is somewhat larger than the original.

P.S. Tomorrow's my second anniversary of serious collecting. The whole craziness started when I randomly walked into a poster store in Denver on March 20, 2009, which led to buying 1000 more posters, ridiculous over-posting on various forums, and serious cash hemorrhaging. So I'm taking a "spring break" from poster world to celebrate, pay off some bills, and hope the Republicans don't shut down the government and cut off my future poster money! Which of course calls for a new avatar and the following cheesy emoticon. (http://bonanzaworld.net/forums/imagesold/vacation.gif)

So as I posted elsewhere... I just won these two in an auction on Proxibid today.
(http://www.proxibid.com/AuctionImages/2261/36413/209.jpg) (http://www.proxibid.com/AuctionImages/2261/36413/190.jpg)
And I *just* won these at a small local auction... and by small I mean like in-a-barn-type local auction! $32.50 for the pair, mint condition King Kong heralds! They are totally in tact, folding out 4 times as large.
(http://img64.imageshack.us/img64/7171/1008502.jpg)

No foolin' on those KONG heralds, Harry? Small barn auction?
Shite.... Some guys get all the luck.
The other posters are smashing, too.
I am sure I am not alone when I say I'd like to see your collection on a website in it's totality.
You have some serious paper, dude.
-
Damn you again Matt. It's amazing the things you manage to turn up - there is literally nothing to be found in these parts!
-
I did the call all the theaters in 200 mile radius thing about 12-15 years ago to look for stuff, I did buy out a couple managers at that time. Now I sit back and think the leg work is not worth it any more as I would want someone in the business for 30+ years, which is REALLY tough to find unless it is an independent owner. It really is sad, as you know there are some folks around the country that are still sitting on stuff, but who knows when it will hit the light of day. California area I'm sure still is the un-mined area of the country. I know someone in the Midwest called and raped most of the areas in the Midwest many years ago, and I think I have a pretty good idea who that is, as I was told their home base ;)
Anyway, worthless post... There will be other finds in the future, but with the internet and shows like Pickers, Pawn Stars, Roadshow, the days of the major find I really think are over.
-
Enjoy your Spring break (whoo hoo) Mel, don't be gone too long the place just isn't the same. ;)
Harry you are a jammy bugger, those are excellent. could you post a pic with them fully open. :)

Its been a while since I posted anything in the new acquisitions thread. This has been on my want list for sometime and I finally found one. Its only taken me about 2 years to find it. Even though the art is the same as the one sheet, the quality of this is much better. Its not an easy one to come across. This is a B1 with a super high gloss finish.

You have to remember, I'm a treasure hunter first, poster collector second. The hunt is game for me... and while there is obviously some luck involved, you wouldn't believe what I do to find some of the posters that I have. One day when I retire from poster hunting, I'll post everything I do to find posters. I'm convinced that even after you all know, none of you will bother with my masochistic ways! ;D
As for a website... I'll get on that right after my kid grows up!
-
Harry you are a jammy bugger, those are excellent. could you post a pic with them fully open. :)
Major faux pas I know, but I couldn't stick around for the end of the auction (or even the beginning)... they are being mailed to me on Monday. My family got in to town last night and you wouldn't believe what it took to convince my wife to let me drive an hour away to bid on posters in a barn! I called ahead for pictures to make sure they were the real deal and they agreed to save the lot for me until I got there... I arrived, 5 minutes later it was up for auction, I won it, and I was back on the road home. I'll post full pictures when I get them... hopefully later this week.

CJ -- that UNDERWORLD B1 is very, very nice....
According to the IMDB, Beckinsale is currently filming UNDERWORLD 4:NEW DAWN for 2012, directed by Mans Marlind and Bjorn Stein, the guys who co-directed STORM and SHELTER.
I have always liked this series and can't wait to see her back in form.
Great score, CJ.

It's gonna take a bit but I should have a review with some pics up shortly. I do have a couple of pics of the main dealers room, but most dealers dislike having their booths shot, so I just got an overview. Dealers I spoke to this year mentioned that sales were a little tough, but I blew most of my dough with Morrie Everett as he had some nice pieces and was willing to negotiate.
The films were great, maybe the best Cinefest I have been to in that respect.

BTW, "Et Satan Conduit le Bal" means "And the Devil Leads the Dance," which makes the artist rendition even better.

Another apparent case of what Mel would call "monkey see monkey buy" :D. Just arrived a little while ago. Had it on my watchlist for a few months and finally decided to apprehend it from never-a-reserve! (http://myworld.ebay.com/never-a-reserve!/) on ebay, they have some cool, rare stuff. It's a nice piece IMO although it doesn't have as good of colors as I expected, but it definitely has that late '60s vibe, not that I really know what that actual vibe was like since it was over a decade before I was born, but it appears to have that vibe.

You are correct Brude. Keeping with my usual theme, I picked this up last night and can't wait to get it home.

THE HUSTLER. Nice! thumbup

Nice Grinsson!

Also from Bruce last night... Night of the Living Dead. Since I bought the 4-Foglio a few day ago (sorry for the double post), I couldn't resist getting the 2-Foglio last night. I believe these 2 Italians are the best art for the movie and they look great together.

Thats one great haul CJ.
May favorite has to be the Yugo Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein.
What year is that poster from? Its freaking sweet!

Wow, CJ nice haul bud!

Harry you are a jammy bugger, those are excellent. could you post a pic with them fully open. :)
Just arrived in the mail today... damn near mint if it wasn't for the slight discoloration on the white backs. I don't think it is water staining as it doesn't even travel through to the back of the paper. They are both stamped:
Garden Theatre
Louisa, KY
Thursday Friday
JUL 27th 28th
How do I figure out what year that is?

Also dig on some of those Polish posters, especially FIGHT CLUB.
Great load of paper, CJ!
-
How do I figure out what year that is?
They are super, Harry.
Why would you think they are any other year other than 1933?
-
I just know some of the old films took a few months/years to be distributed throughout the country... especially to a small town theater (excuse me, theatre) in KY!

Garden Theatre
Louisa, KY
Thursday Friday
JUL 27th 28th
How do I figure out what year that is?
July 27th falls on a Thursday in 1933, 1939, 1944, 1950, 1961, 1967…*
*Added 1933 as I neglected to check the original release date
-

OK, maybe they were distributed for years, but the heralds were probably printed in 1933.
I've seen these on Ebay before and they look identical.
Edit: wait a minute...Angelo's right. They're from 1967. Send me one so that I can carbon date a wee li'l bit of it...and I'll get back to you...

Matt is clearly being a greedy sod considering he has TWO Kongs ;)
-
It was one auction lot... I had no choice! ;D
-
It seems as if these could have came from a auction in Louisa in 2008. They claim most items to be from the 30's. http://yourwvabc.com/story.cfm?func=viewstory&storyid=34951 (http://yourwvabc.com/story.cfm?func=viewstory&storyid=34951) There are a few more articles referring to this sale stating most lots went for 20 or 30 dollars.

Seems plausible that they came from the same find. Thanks for the links!

Not to be overly pedantic (I know, why stop now?), but the 'polish' Fight Club, Blade Runner and I am pretty sure BAT are all art prints made by students.
This is more a note for any noobs reading along, as I am seeing these increasingly listed as original movie posters, when they are most certainly not.

I pretty much look at them as commercial posters and they are printed in limited quantities kinda like the silkscreens but not as collectable. Also, the AP Now is the only one I believe is made by a student. The others are all by artist Michal Ksiaszekhttp://michalksiazek.com/posters.html (http://michalksiazek.com/posters.html)

Neo, nice...what was that, like $12? ;)
Yep. Big spender here. A few of my favorites were pretty darn cheap (less than $20).
Excellent lot of posters, CJ. That Red Sonja is sweet and I see someone bought something from the notorious Brude(?), those The Thing lobbies are cool.
-
Good deal, Neo. I'm glad you didn't interpret my post as insulting, I just happened to see that one the other day. Terrific shape, I am a Bo Derek junkie. For 12 bills, you can't beat it.

Yeah man, no worries. I could have gotten it for $10 but missed the opportunity to use my old fashioned sniping tool (an alarm clock and a schedule revolved around being able to sit in front of a computer to bid :P). The last time that happened, I offered the seller a BIN price for what the opening bid was, and he sent me an email saying he would set a BIN for 3 times the opening bid, so this time I decided to really up the ante and offered a whopping 2 extra bucks for a BIN :D . Luckily it worked out and got a sweet score.
-
That's a great price for almost any 30x40 in that good condition.
I gave up a few years ago trying to find out who the artist was that painted Bo for that poster.
Does anyone know?
I thought it looked like Olivia De Berardinis, but I cannot confirm this.

Thanks for posting the pics Harry, Kong is one of my top 10 films. Those are fantastic, I can only think of one better home for them ;D
-
You know Paul, I don't really need two these... I'm always open to trades! I ended up paying ~$19 each for these after taxes and shipping. If I recall that is more than you paid for your Goldfinger quad ;)
-
Quite true Harry, but we need to factor in "time" on this. ;)
-
Nice Night of the Living Deads and King Kongs!
Just got these from Bruce. A Deep Throat pressbook. I love reading about the film's history
(http://www.moviemonstermuseum.com/posters/pb_deep_throat_asm.jpg)
And I am also a huge Ed Wood fan! Happy to get Glen or Glenda released under one of the alternate titles
(http://www.moviemonstermuseum.com/posters/glen_or_glendasm.jpg)
-
You might wonder what Glen or Glenda had to do with Christine Jorgensen, since she was an early sex change, and Ed Wood's movie was about cross-dressing, but the research I did indicates he originally planned to make the Christine Jorgensen story, but had to alter it (maybe budget constraints) but apparently he went ahead and deceptively gave it an alternate release under that title and tagline anyway!
Anyone know more?
Bruce
-
Not sure, I have the same poster, its a ripper, thanks to Posteropolis Dave.
First saw it on late night TV as a kid, I set my (BETA) to record it, as I saw in the TV guide it had Bela Lugosi (was/am a fan) and I collected tapes (as in recorded anything Horror/related and kept them.
Stayed up to watch also. And nearly cried, I thought it was the best film I had ever seen.
Told all my friends about it at school the next day, they all stared at me.

I was at the Memorabilia show at the weekend, always a nice event. A bit smaller this year, but some great guests and some Jollyfine stalls. The Star of which was our own Terry & Sue, better known as Quadbod. They always have an excellent selection of Quads, and other film Memorabilia. If you are looking for that special Quad check out their web site, or give them ring, they have my wants list, and I'm pleased to say managed to cross a few off...

Our pleasure, Paul! We always get a kick out of seeing our posters go to good homes! You travelled a fair way to see us, so we were particularly pleased to be able to offer you some worthy items.

Interesting find Matt.
One has to wonder if perhaps some of the "choice titles" of that time period were poached on discovery?

Here's one that probably won't mean anything to most of you, but I've been after it for quite some time: Le Rouge et le Noir (1954), a famous adaptation of an ultra famous French book by Stendhal and one of Guy Gérard Noël's best works, IMO. Very excited about it.

As somebody who typically does not like and presently does not own any posters in a language I cannot read, I absolutely LOVE this poster. The duel language but primarily Japanese formatting fits so perfectly with the context of the film and if I were to ever own a LIT poster, I would hope it would be this one.
This poster, to me, has a lot of posterity points. I admire it greatly and congratulations.

Good to see we hold similar tastes! Unfortunately, although mine did not arrive beat to shit there were NOT in the described "excellent condition" (which I guess is subjective afterall) as per MY criteria. Several surfaces scratche on one and some general creasing and minor paper loss on the corners of others.
Still they are presentable...

Just picked up this LB OS "Curse of the Undead" by Reynold Brown (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reynold_Brown), who also drew Attack of the 50 Foot Woman, Creature From The Black Lagoon, and many other movie posters.
It's a great start for a 1950s horror collection - my 1950s collection (http://posternirvana.com/Main/1950s.html) could use some improvement - only have seven originals/non-re-releases from that decade....

The reason I haven't bought much of anything the past year or so. I might be done collecting, this is it for me...will never surpass this. One of 4 remaining, got it for a partial trade/monthly payment deal that might put us in the poor house, but might be worth it.
Sorry for the blurry cell phone pic, will take a better pic when its up on the wall at home.

Nice Brude!!! So is that the 2nd 6-sheet to be found? Or did you buy the one from that comic collector in NYC?
April is shaping up to be a helluva month! I wonder what folks are going to turn up next!
-
Thanks Adam, I wasn't sure if anyone would care about the BoF. I was waiting for T and Holiday to chime in and give me shit for having it linen backed.
It needed it, I swear.
Mate, it is SWEET! ;D
Oh, I uploaded that YOLT UK Quad Advance for you finally!
By the way, traditionally Aprils Fools runs till 12:00pm, so anything after that is rather taking the micky (in the UK anyway!).
-
Beautiful posters guys. Congratulations. Those Frankies are insane, and the Metropolis as well. Although I have no clue about the 2 Mondo posted, they look like they are very reminiscent of that era.
I scored a couple cool pieces today that I've been hunting for a while, the same one that Mel posted about in the "mid-auction..." thread. A Pulp Fiction Lucky Strikes one sheet, not in perfect condition but I'm definitely stoked about it. Thank you very much indeed, sir.

Finding Nemo one sheet. A real cool poster, IMO. Never realized just how many different fish there are in it, and the details are incredible. I was a little weary of this one after Mr. Amethyst mentioned he received a few Finding Nemos that were fakes, but it looks pretty darn good to me. Any Disney Pixar experts or anyone else want to chime in?

Aha, my specialty. :P
Initially, I was going to give you some bad news. At first glance I was going to say your poster is a reprint/bootleg/NegaNemo poster because Crush the turtle's fin is right against the edge of the paper, whereas the known originals I'm familiar with have a considerable space between Crush's fin and the edge of the poster, seen here:
(http://img705.imageshack.us/img705/1479/findingnemover4t.jpg)
However, then I noticed that you have the "2003" variant as opposed to the "May 30" version. (May 30 is also the one Thierry has, straight from the studio) I have only ever owned the "May 30" version, but in my history I've done a considerable amount of "shopping around" and there are several very reputable dealers who have pictures of the "2003" version on their website. This one is from Cinemasterprices:
(http://img845.imageshack.us/img845/3076/findnemo2aug07.jpg)
I don't expect the "2003" version to be a reprint - if so it would have been examined more scrupulously and not listed as for sale on prestigious websites. I can't find either version of the international in the eMovie sales archive, but if your printing is crisp I would say you have nothing to worry about. Everything looks A-OK to me.
What does it measure, by the way?

Alright, I really have to get this sorted out for me. Which of the following are April Fools jokes?
1. Metropolis
2. Bride of Frankenstein
Because quite frankly I will believe any acquisition I see on this forum. As far as I'm concerned you are all eccentric millionaires with infinite resources who spend money on posters because it's all just paper to you anyway.
I also don't believe this business for one second: http://www.allposterforum.com/index.php/topic,177.msg30634.html#msg30634
Mel meeting a girl? No way.

Of course Wonka got the Metropolis. Spread the word... one of the most sought after posters is owned by Mr Wonka.
Harry has been after Bride for soooooo long too. Had to sell his car too but saved one hub cap to use to hold the poster down.
I think Mels mum might have come over for a visit rather than a girlfriend.
Only April Fools joke is, I hope, Mels avatar. Less pretty boys... more anything else...

Sounds good. Looks like you've done your research on this one, thanks for the info. It's been rolled for a while and is being flattened in my flat file right now. Once it has flattened, I will let ya know what the measurements are.

No problem. Pixar is the whole reason I started seriously treading into poster collecting. Animated movie posters are heavily reprinted so there were a lot of reprints for me to sort through. This was long before I knew of any place like APF, so I had to do the majority of my authentication on my own. The only question I haven't had answered is why there is a "May 30" variant. I know it came out May 30th in the US, but it seems odd it would be the same date elsewhere. I know in the UK it was October 23rd.
But unless there is some sort of in-house printing scandal where Finding Nemo posters were being professionally bootlegged, I have no reason to doubt both versions are legitimate. Like the Thai Lord of the Rings poster, sometimes you can just tell. If it looks right, feels right, measures out and is super-sharp, you're good to go.
Quite ironically, I don't actually own this poster anymore. I much prefer the "Little Fish poster".
Which, incredibly, is currently listed on eBay for $5 and ends in 8 minutes. I've done business with Jon Bajon before, his posters are usually a little beat up this is a steal if anybody can get it in time! http://cgi.ebay.com/Original-Theatre-Movie-Poster-Finding-Little-NEMO-/190517812218?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2c5bbf1bfa#ht_500wt_922

Well said and said well, pal. The only exceptions are a few bootlegs produced using the original printing plates. Notwithstanding all the hype, it just ain't that complicated.
Of course, I'm still have to beat up your punk ass for mocking my alleged imaginary girlfriends. Nothing personal, man. (http://www.smileyhut.com/fighting/box.gif) (http://www.smileyhut.com)

Sorry ;)
As for where I found that image... it is full size reprint. I have no idea who printed, what source was used, or when it was done. But it is pretty cool nonetheless.
-
those Metropolis were reprinted in a limited number (signed and numbered) years back.
Actually I can't believe it was Brudes that gave it away.
If another Metropolis was discovered I think I would be hearing the shouts in Australia.

April Fools? moron1 :D Jeez Louise, Chris must have stayed at a Holiday Inn the night before last to solve that mystery. :D

Right on bro. That sounds like some good detective work on your part. The "little fish poster" is pretty cool, and I was actually watching that one - "Finding Little Nemo" as the seller had it listed. I may bid on it next time around, and accept the fact that it is banged up a little bit, since he's selling it at a low price.

He really is a nice guy. He's an old man in Louisiana who lost his job. He has arthritis and can hardly roll the posters to put them in tubes - he accidentally bangs up a lot of them, he told me. He was selling a Pulp Fiction poster to somebody in the UK and his hands were shaking so much putting it in the tube he kept banging the end against the cardboard and dinged up the whole right side. It's actually really sad. Last I talked to him his wife was giving him a really hard time because he had so many posters just sitting around the house in piles. He was given one or two whole storage units full of them and has been trying to pay for groceries while he looks for a new job.
I wound up buying five or six posters from him when he first started listing. The first two he sent me were just ruined. Water damage and wrinkles and hardly collectible. But he was very understanding and courteous. I don't think he fully realized that people collect movie posters, I think he was more expecting people just tacked them on their walls and condition wasn't that important. But he gave me my money back in an instant and made me feel good about buying from him again.
In the end, I did stop buying from him just because the posters were more dinged up than I wanted. But he gave me my money back on all of the ones I was unsatisfied with, no questions asked, and never asked me to mail the poster back.
If you like, if he doesn't relist his Finding Nemo poster, you can have one of mine. I finally just replaced it with a mint one that's been framed by a friend of a Pixar employee for the last eight years. My old one isn't perfect either, about the quality you'll get from Jon Bajon, but you can have it. Just pay shipping.

Yeah man, PM sent. That's real cool of you to do that, although after that story of Mr. Bajon, I feel like I should buy from him to truly support a good cause, I'm sure someone will buy it from him.

Somebody will, I'm sure. When I first started buying from him he had 13 sales. It's nice to see he's up in the 200s now. If you're unhappy with mine, he'd be a good next stop. It's really a beautiful, beautiful poster. It can just be very hard to find!

Why, you're practically stealing Metropolis posters at that price!! Would anybody like to go halvsies?

Harry, did you get anything from that sale yet?
I picked up a great piece for a steal of a price, will post a pic when it gets here.
BTW, Peter of Majestic is a heck of a guy. Talked with him forever at Cinevent last year and especially about that Metropolis he and his partner own. He gave me some great deals on some stuff, he had the best booth there outside of Sean L's lobbies.

LOL ... I already said that over here in the UK Aprils Fools finishes at 12:00pm traditionally, and so when you guys posted those pics I thought the US had the same tradition ... I was wrong ... Obviously runs the entire fecking day over your way! laugh1
I hate you guys - well played clap

Adam, it was 10pm on April 1st when we posted... as far as I know, April Fools Day lasts the whole day!

Adam's right it's only until 12 o clock over in the U.K. The rule is if you do it after that you are the fool yourself... Foolish Americans. ;)

All kidding aside, that's a great sale. Some of the best deals have already been taken, though. With the discount, many of the posters are below auction prices.
-
I agree Mel. Makes me wonder why they didn't simply auction some or all of those.
Bruce

Had no idea the Metropolis was even "for sale". $1.5 million would still be more than doubling his money though right?

-
(http://www.majesticposters.com/shop/images/P/MetropolisHighRes-480.jpg)
With Empire's 25% discount on the METROPOLIS, 3-sheet, that would bring the price down to $1.5 million.
Question for Bruce and others .. if this poster would be placed in a high profile auction, would it sell for anywhere near that price? Would it be more? less? Or is something like this too hard to determine, since a bidding war could send it thru the roof?
I guess a better question is. Is Empire's list price close to a pre-auction estimate? Or does it far exceed that number?
-
Rumor is he bought it for $750,000. I'm guessing that is about what it would go for at auction.
-
I'm with Harry, I don't think it would go over the $1,000,000.

Thanks Dennis. Nice reference photo.
I really like the german dawn of the dead, and it arrived in better condition than I thought. I thought from bruces pictures that the poster was a little faded turns out a- it's impossible to take a pic of that pink and have it look not faded (when in reality it is very very vibrant) and b- It was A lil dusty I took an old (clean) t-shirt and wiped it down gently and it looked almost mint.
A mummy LC I would like to see that for sure.

Great quad. I've never seen this movie, but I got the French version a while back (designed by Kerfyser).

Is it as good as that? Should I put it on my queue?

yeah, its great.

I can't find the review I read that finally got me to see it... but yes, its worth a watch. Then again, I have an affinity for 60s/70s horror even if it is relatively tame by today's standards. Not sure I would even classify this as horror though...
-
Done with a subtlety and style that the Brits do/did so well.
-
By the way, do any of you quad experts know if my poster is an original release? I just found this image on DVDBeaver... I wasn't sure if there were two styles or if one was a re-release. I think I like the tagline better on this one!

It's O.K. Harry seen a bigger one, looks first release also. Must be a style "B", Possibly an advance, a press book would be the way to know for certain.

Ari, you have just reminded me:
I have a Fahrenheit 451 6 Sheet on linen.
I'm not really into that genre, but the art on the poster is quite good from what I recall.
Paul:
"The City of Lost Children" quad looks far better now I have seen it from a distance.
I think the art is quite powerful - I like it!
-
Adam, I think it's quite true with a lot of posters, as they were meant to be viewed from a distance.
It's an amazing image, it's the only reason I bought it. The poster has certainly done it's job, as it's made me want to find the film and watch it...

"Landed" this rare, cool, and very menacing Jaws 2 first teaser poster (seller's pic):
(http://i691.photobucket.com/albums/vv275/Forty_Candles/Jaws2a.jpg)
The art is fantastic and the tagline is probably the best of all time.
Once a release date was set "Coming to theaters everywhere June 12" was added to later printings.
(http://i691.photobucket.com/albums/vv275/Forty_Candles/Jaws2b.jpg)
Supposedly the teaser posters were perceived as a re-release of the original movie, so the studio added an "all new" to later printings, which I think slightly detracts from the poster:

Cool Jaws poster. I'm not a real big fan of any of the Jaws movies (to say the least) but that is a cool poster.
Gotta thank Mr. Amethyst for this one. The colors are really awesome in person. Had one on my watch list for a while and glad I waited on this one because it is definitely authentic and despite a few minor flaws it is a beaut. Thanks again Mr. Amethyst.

Damn CJ, all killer no filler! I havent seen City of Men, City of God was amazing though....

Here are some new ones I picked up.
Great stuff CJ - glad you're back in the game!

Thanks CJ#2 and Mel. If you liked City of Men you will like City of God.

Another nice haul, CJ. I always know when I see that you have posted in the "latest acquisitions" thread that there is going to be some cool paper, and usually for several films.
My pleasure, really. I'm glad you like it. I had it framed briefly and it looks great when its up. In my opinion, it's the most beautiful poster for an animated film in over fifteen years.
The best in 15 years? Wow. That makes me feel even more special that you hooked me up with it. :D Which would you say are the best? Now my brain is running to see which you could be referring to from 15 years ago, so I looked at "animated feature films" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_animated_feature_films) on Wikipedia, and about the best one I could initially see from 15 years ago was Beavis and Butthead 1996, that really is an iconic production (the TV show more than the movie, but both are iconic). Street Fighter II is really an iconic one also (I dominated everyone at the military school I went to when that game was first released, and IMO the video game is more iconic than the movie - but the movie was pretty darn good also, especially the part with Chun Li :D). After a laborious search and deliberation (approximately 5 minutes) I think that I have found an answer - is it Toy Story?

That's really a tough one... I have Toy Story up on my wall right now, it's certainly iconic. But I think my favorite animated poster would be one of John Alvin's. It'd be hard to pick which one though. Check out the "Animation Posters" thread that just got started: http://www.allposterforum.com/index.php/topic,2148.0.html (http://www.allposterforum.com/index.php/topic,2148.0.html)
I know the 1970 Re-Release for Sleeping Beauty is quite impressive as well.

Thanks, but not really. I actually like the Italians because Falk is on them, and I think the drawings are really nicely done. I don't know why they would advertise Columbo without a picture of Columbo. It's like Bond without Bond, or Rambo without Rambo... Thanks for the offer, though. I appreciate it.

No problem T.
The lack of Falk´s image also baffles me... I suppose the show wasn`t too popular down here...

I actually picked this up a while ago, but I just now got around to sleeving some posters (thanks to the BagsUnlimited thread!). I wasn't sure if any of you might be interested in this... its an Incredible Shrinking Man advance poster. I've never seen one sold in the eMovie, HA, Christies archives so I assume it is somewhat rare. It actually measures slightly smaller than a standard 1-sheet at about 26 1/2" x 40". It is two sided and seems to have functioned like a hybrid advance press book + 1-sheet. You can clearly tell it was folded up and mailed directly to the theaters. The back/press side shows theater owners what the 24 sheet advance looks like as well as some other press-related material (including an Orson Wells radio spot!). It also calls out the free advance lobby poster on the verso...
As cool as all that is... I think what might be most unique is that the advance campaign was apparently totally different from regular campaign. Instead of the common-for-the-time 50s monster movie artwork, this has a very modern/minimalist design... it almost feels like a Saul Bass design done in black and hot pink dayglo. It is a full bleed 1-sheet as well, which is pretty rare for this time frame. Anyway, just I thought I would share this unique piece...

Harry. Wow. I don't know what else to say.
The uniqueness and rarity factor alone makes this THE poster to beat this year on the APF. Fantastic find.
How did you come about this, if you don't mind me asking?
-
eBay ;)
Since I bought this, I actually saw another UI 2-sided advance press/poster listed for The Mummy (1959). However, it used the same artwork as the 1-sheet, only in bland pea-green duo-tone. While probably rare like this one, it was kind of a boring poster compared to the 1-sheet (or the French 1-panel!) or I would have bid on it.
-
Very cool Matt!
-
Thanks!

Kudos, Matt!

I am astounded. That is so different and better than every other piece of paper on that movie. All of the production stuff is standard movie schlock and uninspired. What were they thinking?
P.S. Not sure I'll ever be able to look at my half sheet again :(
-
I disagree Jay! I love the original campaign... the artwork fits in perfectly with the other shlock shrinking/growing movies of the day (50ft woman, Puppet People, Colossal Man, etc...). By the way, which 1/2 sheet do you have?
(http://www.emovieposter.com/images/vhp9/550/VHP9_094.jpg) (http://www.emovieposter.com/images/moviestars/AA090625/half_incredible_shrinking_man_WA00037_L.jpg)
In fact, I'm not sure my ISM advance will ever be worth that much. I think people who collect this genre will want the regular campaign art that fits with the other posters. Its not like it was a great film! I think the only reason we know about this film is because of the genre/poster... not sure if anyone will care about a minimalist take on a spectacle!
I still like it due to its uniqueness though... And who knows, maybe it will turn out that Saul Bass did design it and it will be worth a fortune! ;D Speaking of, do any of you know anyone at either Universal or the Saul Bass estate to see if he ever did design work for this film? ;)

It definitely hass a Bass feel. Probably why I like it. I keep bidding and getting outbid on Saul Bass stuff.
My half sheet is the second one with all the little drawn scenes. I don't think it is the one Bruce has pictured, as I boulgt it back in the early '90s.
I saw this film as a kid in the theater and remember being scared by it. Typical '50s nuclear scare stuff.

Well gang I'm very embarrassed/irritated that the seller (Majestic Posters) canceled the sale today of the Barbarella Style B with this explanation:
You ordered the Barbarella one sheet on Saturday. I am sorry to tell you that the poster was sold some time back and not removed from the site. I pored over the site over a 2 day period prior to the sale to make sure everything was up to date in order to avoid this situation. I still missed 3 items, one of which was the Barbarella OS. I apologize. If I can make this up to you I will certainly try... Peter Contarino
If anybody is willing to sell a Barbarella Style B for $500 - $800 price range, please contact me. (Also looking for an Italian Job OS as a possible replacement for it.)
In the future probably best for me - and everyone - to hold off posting until item is actually received.
P.S. I'm deleting the images I posted - no reason to keep it around. Thanks to those who commented on it.
-
That SUCKS! I am sure another will come around Mel.
-
Now I can say what I thought when I first saw it (I didn't want to be critical :)) Great poster, to be sure, I was a little envious, and then I saw it was linenbacked and thought to myself, I hope he didn't spend too much money on it. Try to get it folded next time. I think it's for the best.
T
-
That sucks, Mel. It's a great poster and I'm sure you'll find another.
-
Linen-backed vs. folded
This issue has arisen so many times I think it's theological.
I was planning to permanently frame the Barbarella B and display it as a "showcase" poster, so I preferred a linen-backed copy. I paid $750 for it. Since an LB copy sold for $956 at auction two weeks ago (http://movieposters.ha.com/common/view_item.php?Sale_No=7035&Lot_No=83145), it was a good deal.
But 'twas not to be. But there is another possibility. Stay tuned....

Here's something interesting - a one sheet from 1938 that is ROLLED!
Unfortunately the seller decided to put it in a tube by itself and so it slid around causing the left border to get chewed up from all that banging against the end cap moron1
Anyways, I love the artwork and if you can find a close up image online you will notice that the stencil lines to guide the letter copy are still there! - Quite an oversight which makes me wonder if these "Prison Train" one sheets were rejected and meant to be thrown away but were kept in a stash somewhere (perhaps explaining their prevalence in spite of their age and also why some are rolled?)

Thanks guys! And Matt - I agree, the colours are really what grabs you (so I suppose the poster is doing its job well!).
I don't believe its a stone litho though despite the vividness. Just doesn't have the same look up close as all my Aussie paper (which of course are primarily all stone litho).

Great posters, Chris.

Then I sure am glad you didn't see the auction because it would have turned into a bloodbath.
I do agree completely with your philosophy that all that matters is the next purchase. It's a sickness with no cure.

As usual some very interesting stuff from everyone.
Here are few new ones. A lot more on my website.
Stumbled upon this one. It somehow went under the radar.

A gigantic step down from that awesome House on Haunted Hill.
I hesitated a little before getting this one, simply because I don't know what it is and why there are no credits, and eventually decided to go for it, because I don't know what it is and thought i'd be a nice addition to my Spielberg collection. Thanks Matt!
If anyone has info, please do share.

Speaking of Haunted Hill, the French one by Soubie is a close second, IMO. I've loved this poster since I was a child and used to collect posters on postcards.

Could this be a kind of stock poster? Allowing for different snipes to be attached in the blank area at the bottom? :-\
Jeff

Interesting idea, Jeff. But if it was, don't you think it'd more common?

T,
That's true. Curious then, why it would be printed with no credits yet leaving that large, blank area at the bottom.
What words are printed on the bottom border, in the center?

Thanks for all the kind words about he Haunted Hill poster.
The auction was nearly a disaster. The seller wasn't a typical poster seller and he didn't have that high of feedback. After the auction ended, I didn't hear from him for 3 or 4 days and the paypal payment was not being claimed. My first thought was he must have had sellers remorse because it didn't go for what he wanted. I sent numerous emails asking for some status but got no response. I finally decided to get his phone number and call him. So come to find out, the ebay id was a son who was selling the poster for his father. The email id for paypal was the son's girlfriend. That's who was receiving all my angry emails. So when I finally talked to the father, he was wondering why the money wasn't showing up in his paypal account. He had the poster ready for shipment and sounded like he would have sent it without payment confirmation. I can't tell you how relieved I was when I found out it was going to happen. I quickly sent him the money to the correct email id and got it within 3 days. whew.

Yes congrats! Nice House on Haunted Hill!! Any Resident Evil fans in the group? I have had these for awhile but have never shown them to anyone. They are poster designs for the second film, Resident Evil Apocalypse and are different from the released poster. These have Sony Screen Gems on the back and they are numbered so producers could have voted for their favorite design.

I love this sort of stuff. happy1
Selling??? Lol ;D
-
I have so many of these for so many movies... Got them from studios I worked at. I keep them because they're from movies I like, but they're not worth anything, at least IMO. They're not posters, just mock-ups and ideas. I was at Disney a few days ago and was chitchatting with a friend of mine in distribution. She showed me the entire Pirates campaign. Advertisers probably made 500 of those for the movie, some of them much better than what they ended up choosing. I couldn't help feeling sorry for the people who spent so much time creating artwork.
T
-
I wish I was in your position, T.
I must be one of the very few who really do like this sort of thing.
If you ever decide to sell - let me know ;D
(not that you will actually ever sell mind lol)
And yeah, I have to agree:
Doing an advertising degree has given me first hand experience of spending a lot of time working on something that looks good, but is then disregarded - but, at the end of the day, those guys who came up with whatever design got paid for it, yet if some of the designs were better than what they have gone with for Pirates then the designers of the 'better' posters must feel puke2

Just got this second original 11x14 photo used to design the poster from The Thing That Couldn't Die. I wonder how many different photos exist from this photo shoot and if the original painting exists

They are about 13x19 inches. IMO, these offer other collecting options for movie fans. As a collector of Resident Evil paper, after buying the one sheet, lobby card set, advance poster, and International poster, what's left? I like different images like the Thai poster and other non-US paper and these protp-type posters are unique and offer different images from one of my favorite films

So today was pretty uneventful until i decided to to check out an old tube of posters my uncle sent me from la about 2 years back, the tube was mostly filled with duds but I got a few good ones out of it when it arrived. long story short i found this poster rolled in almost mint condition (extremely minor edge wear). How did i pass this poster up two years ago i have no idea but i am feeling about like bed1 right now. this is going in a frame asap.

That could be an interesting thread... not necessarily new acquisitions-- but showing those posters long stored away, maybe forgotten about or overlooked (as Evan did ;) ), and now being rediscovered and seeing the light of day.

Nice posters Mel I've always liked the something wicked comes this way. never seen the flick though.
-
never seen the flick though.
Yeah, I have been meaning to see it too, kept passing it over for no apparent reason. But after looking at the credits in Mel's poster, I see Pam Grier is in it...so that means I am putting it at the top of the Netflix queue. Ha.

Three for three Mel.
Wonka thats exactly how I feel about Jason Robards! :P
-
It definitely has that Disney quality, but is on the more edgy side of their stuff, especially for that time. I have actually seen it pretty recently, and it still holds up as a decent film. Jonathan Pryce was one creepy SOB.

That POPEYE quad is a strong candidate for great poster / bad film...
Nice catch, Paul.
-
Just got this in the mail today, this is the poster that made me want to collect. I will be sending this one off to be restored.

Ted, I respectfully disagree to say the least. I strongly feel that Popeye is incredibly underrated, I think its a fantastic film, and that Altman NAILED it.
Great poster, too! Best paper for the film.

Bruce
Bruce, have you seen it?
-
I tried to watch it, because I really love Robert Altman (one of the absolute best directors ever).
But I couldn't understand Williams yammering (which may well be how an actual Popeye would sound), and I made it maybe half an hour.
Is there a subtitled version available?
Bruce
-
I had no problem understanding him when I was a kid or now...I think there are several lines where the viewer isn't meant to really understand him as he rambles or mutters under his breath...and when his words sound purposly convoluted, it's pretty funny.
You could just turn on the English subtitles, Bruce.

Apologies for Popeye being the focus after you posted this, but wanted to say congrats, this is an exceptional poster and a classic. Always wanted one, need to get on this ASAP. Did you get it for a good deal?
Be sure to post pics of the end result after restoration, I bet it's gonna be a beauty!
-
I believe I got a good deal on it, the fold are seperateing and it has a small bit of paper lose but there is no foxing and the images are in great shape. I gave 200 shipped comparing past auctions I've seen worse condition go for more. Either way I finally broke down and got one.
-
Just be sure to research and find the best restorer. With that paper loss area, it looks like some credits will have to be recreated in the lower left.. so you want someone that will be able to match this perfectly.
Have you decided on possible restore candidates at this point?
Nice looking poster, too! :D
Jeff
-
I've been in touch with Dario so far and I plan to get a few more estimates before I go ahead with the restoration.

Nice Cool Hand Luke Mr. Tatum. It looks like "a perfect candidate for linen backing." thumbup
Scored these over the past week but unfortunately I was in the 0.2% of people whose Photobucket accounts did not work for the past couple weeks. Nothing you guys haven't seen before, as usual with my latest acquistions. :)
For various reasons wanted this Terminator in the Cleveland format and folded. Got it from Cory Laberson. About the best condition for a folded one I've seen. And IMO this one is a perfect candidate for linen backing (since it will likely be permanently framed...not to stir the feces, just saying).

30x40 Streets of Fire. The colors are really cool on this one. Not the best movie I've ever seen but not bad. Maybe there should be a new thread for "posters that deserved better movies." :D

Yes, it's actually called Great posters, no so great films... It's fell down to page 2. May have to post something to bring it back up again.

Might be a crappy movie, but Diane Lane is in it, and she can do no wrong. She was at her hottest then too.

Yeah, forgot about that one. This poster is good for that thread but since I already posted it in "latest acquisitions" the redundancy could be disastrous. I'll keep that thread in mind next time. :)

It's not perfect, in fact I hope to probably replace it at some point, but if I'm not mistaken isn't this a very expensive poster?

What's a "very expensive poster," Anthony?

What's a "very expensive poster," Anthony?
Aha. I forgot, "expensive" is a relative term. For somebody like me, anything over $80 is an "expensive poster". Anything over $150 is a "very expensive" poster, and anything over $250 is "more than my paycheck".

Hey, we've all been there pal. This hobby is really for middle-aged dudes who finally have some extra money to burn. I had to shell out $1500 a month for many years to pay off my student loans - finally paid them off when I hit 40. Now I blow all that money on posters. (Great investment!)

Yes. What else are the poor good for?

But Mel richly deserves mocking, as he spends all his discretionary income on pretty paper, an extremely dubious "accomplishment" that impresses about 20 dudes/poster nerds in the world, most of whom are members of this board, and mystifies every one else he knows ;)

Yes. What else are the poor good for?

The good thing about being poor and collecting movie posters is when they foreclose on your home you have a big pile of kindling to keep warm with throughout the harsh winters of Maine. If anything, I'm just planning ahead and being responsible.

A couple of Westerns - my first I think.
Valerie OS linen-backed from fffmovieposters.com (http://www.fffmovieposters.com/index.php) - a really fantastic dealer BTW - well worth checking out that site frequently:

I don't know what you paid for these, but their prices look very much on the high side and some are flat out nutso pricing.

They are very high priced. I recall when i first saw their items on ebay, I'm sure I did a bit of :o.
After doing a few cross check comparisons, they are quite a bit higher for many items that can also be gotten elsewhere for less. But they do have a nice selection.. i will give them that.

Two recent unearthings:
First, for Wes Craven's DEADLY FRIEND:

and ONE CRAZY SUMMER, with Demi Moore-- the imagery is SO 80's (and orange).. :P
(http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5222/5663355410_ea71085989_z.jpg)

All things considered, I'd consider fffmovieposters.com a mid-range dealer. Most of their posters are VF or better and are not outrageously priced considering their condition and comparable auction prices. I talked to the gallery manager and the ones currently being sold came from the private collection of the gallery owner.
I paid $275 for the LB Valerie, $50 more than it sold at auction two years ago (http://www.emovieposter.com/agallery/archiveitem/15720203.html), so it was pretty fair price for a dealer. I bought the Few Dollars off Ebay from another seller for $80.
Here's another pic of the Pleasures of the World - one of the most colorful posters I've seen:
(http://posternirvana.com/0DNE/Pleasures.jpg)
The two panel is pretty cool too (don't own this):
(http://chisholm-poster.com/small/CL11827.jpg)
-
I disagree, Mel. Considering that all respected collectors watch Bruce's auctions, you should never pay more for a poster somewhere else. Valerie is not a very high in-demand poster. If you had waited a bit, I'm sure you would have been able to get it for 1/2 what you paid at that store. When I buy from Bruce, it's because I really want a poster, I trust the condition and/or I believe I will not be able to find it somewhere else. If I do find it somewhere else, I always compare their prices to Bruce's. If they are higher, I don't buy.
T
-
The only problem with that method Thierry is that Bruce runs auctions and inherently this means any given poster can fluctuate wildly in terms of price realized.
I do agree Bruce's results are generally a good and fairly accurate reflection of current market value BUT just because a poster sold for $150 on Bruce's site and a dealer has it listed for $200 doesn't mean it won't sell for $250 next time Bruce auctions it.
-
Quite right Chris, the market is a very bumpy road. Prices can change over night. but I think what T is saying, if you level out that bumpy road, you can still bag a bargain, but you need to shop about, and buy it at the right time.
I'm with T on this, as I'm as tight as they come ( Yorkshireman ). Watch and play the market, There are only a hand full of posters I would buy without caring what the current value is. Otherwise I let them go to those who would pay too much. There is always something else to buy. I have had two chances to buy my Raven Quad, but let them go as the prices were far too high...
-
I don't always want to wait around for an auction and compete with other poster devotees, so I'm willing to pay a reasonable premium to a dealer for a "get it right now" price. It's like paying $1.99 for a large Coke at McDonald's. I know they're selling it for 25 times cost and I could buy it in volume at a grocery store much cheaper, but I'm willing to pay for convenience.
As far as Bruce's auctions, it's very difficult to get a "good deal" on the high-demand posters because there are always two or three bidders willing to push the prices to the upper limits. They usually go for significantly more than the Ebay auction price. For example, I was trying to get the Butch Cassidy Style A poster the other night but it went to $280 and I gave up. So I got the Valerie instead.

If you are on the hunt for these be careful. Several years after the initial release eBay was hit with a 'second wave' of these Fight Club wilding posters that were being sold by questionable sellers (red doc ocks). One of the MPT guys had copies of both and said that the second wave were definitely on different paper (spongier) from the originals.
Is this enough to say that there was something funny about the second wave posters? Hard to tell, since it just could have been a new find or from a different source, but it is the reason that I will never bother looking for the two of the four that I don't have...
BTW, I have the one Dale posted and the Bloodstains version (my favorite also) that (for the long time forum people) I had to outbid Randy (rkpeterson) on, who didn't even like the movie I might add...

Damn Randy...

A few Dazed and Confused mini sheets or whatever they're called (2 of each) - about 18"x26.5". Didn't even realize they were all mini sheets until after I won the auction. hitself I NEED to start reading the auction descriptions better. They came with a note from Slater (in the movie), which is pretty sweeeeet.

Irish folklore-
One tale describes how in 1182, a priest travelling from Ulster into Meath encountered a talking wolf, which revealed itself to be a man of Ossory, whose ancestors had been cursed to turn into wolves every seven years and return to their human form after another seven years had passed.

Who you got it from doesn't matter. I have sent numerous emails to Phil at Emovie telling him about mistakes he's made on French posters (the mistakes are always corrected, BTW). The movie came out in 1983 in France, so it should read SA Lalande Courbet on the side.

Gotcha, good to know. It dose not say SA Lalande Courbet , It says Imprimerie Karcher.
-
Yeah, that's where it becomes a little bit problematic.
This is the catalog reference of the original poster.
Notice catalographique
Titre : Evil dead
Auteur : Claude Lalande (affichiste)
Pays : France
Type : Affiche de film
Description : Offset - Coul.
Sujet (film) : Evil dead (Evil dead) - Sam Raimi - 1981
Imprimeur : Wissous : Lalande Courbet
It's in French, but notice at the bottom where it says Lalande Courbet. Now, Karcher is a legit printer that was operational in those years, but my feeling (I could be wrong) is that you got a late 80s re-release. The design is the same. Again, I don't own the title, so I'm not 100% positive. only 80%.

Thanks for the info
I did notice towards the bottom middle in the red it says 1983. Would the re-release still say 83?
-
Probably, if they used the same 83 poster and only changed the printer's name.
No biggie, though, it's still a really cool poster, and they don't come around too often.

Thanks
they are from different sellers, i was aware that the clockwork had them but the 2001 auction did not state that it had the "soft folds". I have seen a lot of Japanese posters that have them so i figured it was pretty normal, other than that there in great shape. i plan on framing them soon I am also searching for the shining and full metal jacket B2'S.

Whatever his answer, lots of B2s are soft folded like that. The paper is thin though and they flatten out nicely!

The Dambusters is a great film. Funnily enough my Maths Teacher was a Navigator on that raid. When we could get him in the mood he would stop teaching Maths and talk to us about it. He hated the film, as it glorified what really happened. He lost a great many friends on that raid, and was still very....Bitter/Saddened by the whole experience, of not just that, but the whole War...

Wow, thanks for sharing that Paul. Yeah, that's a reminder...Lest We Forget!

Great daybills, Matt. Now, you have to add those images to the APF threads for War and Daybills.
They're too good to be posted only once.
-
happy1 Matt!

Too many great posters in a row.
Hate to break the rhythm with this guilty pleasure...a 4'x6' DS bus shelter...
Seller's pic and exactly what I received.

Nothing Wrong with Sucker punch Ted, I'm toying with the Idea of picking a couple up myself...
-
Cool posters Ted. That line on the second one is cool "you win or you die", kind of like with poster auctions. :D
I posted this in another thread but couldn't help myself and had to post it here also. Pulp Fiction Lucky Strikes one sheet. YESSSSS!!! And I paid less for it than Mel did on his, which is probably the first and last time that ever happens. :D I told the seller I would mention his name, he is jonesmarcusmovieguy (http://myworld.ebay.com/jonesmarcusmovieguy/) on Ebay, an excellent guy to buy from.
I've wanted this one since before I truly knew what an "original poster" was. One of my friends told me about it back in the day and it was kind of interesting to me, but at the time I couldn't understand why someone would pay so much for one. Funny how things change over time. I remember him saying how he knew someone who had one and my thoughts were probably about the same as when I tell someone that I have an original poster for ____, the "deer in the headlights" look, where they probably are not very impressed (to say the least). A lot of people probably think they are cool, but since they don't really understand the rarity on so many, or the whatever, they are a lot more indifferent than one of us freaks. ;D This is definitely my new favorite. Can't wait to get a frame for it.

Thank you sir. Yeah, it's in almost flawless condition, except for one tear about an inch long and one smaller one next to it, both on the left side, but if there was one poster where a tear doesn't really show, this would definitely be it.

Well the Gangs of Chicago required a certain lovely lady's assistance but the rest I managed to finagle on my own! ;)
And of course, thanks for the comments guys - the Brighton Strangler really does stand out - another superb example of an RKO daybill enhancing a "lesser" film to the top of the poster pedestal...
-
Dare I post this after all that Day-bill awesomeness...
This is the first release Quad for Marlowe. As we all know James Garner, a friend of Bruce Lee's got Bruce a small role in the film, but after Bruce's rise to stardom, the subsequent re-release posters made more of the fact Bruce Lee was in it... So a difficult poster to find without all the Lee hype on, even more so as it's rolled.
(http://i590.photobucket.com/albums/ss348/frankenstein31_photos/PICT0034-1.jpg)
-
Great daybills for our viewing pleasure as Matt and Chris contine to duel.
As a Garner fan I must say that that Marlowe is pretty damn sweet too Paul.
Brude, that Game of Thrones is very cool.
-
Anything Chandler or Philip Marlowe related is great in these parts.
Very nice Paul.

Outstanding haul Chris, especially this'un. thumbup
Gotta agree with Ted on this daybill.. beautious!!
Jeff
-
Brude, that Game of Thrones is very cool.
Thanks, Z. It is a cool image for a very cool series.
I dig the throne of swords.
Be careful as there 24x36 editions available, sold from the HBO web site and possibly reprinted by Ebay scuzzhounds.
The original is 27x40.

That is a theatrical and not a video one-sheet, right? The only difference is with the New World Pictures vs, New World Video, I believe, and has tripped up many collectors. They also did this with the one-sheet for Heathers.
It looks to be in top shape. I hope that you got a good deal...
-
Very nice, Dream Warrior.
The first cut is the deepest.

Nice poster, Kevin.. love the image.. and archie has a point, too.. your photo has the New World ____ partially covered with a dvd case or book. Is your copy the theatrical OS? Or the video release poster? (It looks like it reads "Pictures," tho).
Inquiring minds and all that.. ;)

This is very humble compared to some of the posts this month, could even belong in the Text only thread, and yes it is a snipe. But as we all know I love this sort of thing.
It's a double crown for one of the saturday morning kids film clubs. I was in the ABC Minors, but any of these great as they are from a time gone by, that will never return...

It's the real deal 27x41 and says New World Pictures. I would take another pic but it is rolled up until my frame gets here. Severen Told me to look for that so big thanks to him. It is in VERY good shape and looks nearly brand new. I got it from movieposterzone on ebay. I have to say I am very happy to buy from them. It came in a plastic sleave inside a nice thick tube with padding on each end. I guess you guys can tell me if you think it's a good price ($99.95). I wouldn't have paid that much had it been folded and/or in worse shape but I think it was fair.
Also Jeff, those are .223 ammo boxes. They work great. ;D

I figured as much, but it's good thing to bring up on these kinds of threads for the other eyes that visit. I've never been disappointed paying the going rate for a top condition item if it was one of my favorites.
-

It appears as though movieposterzone has a stash of these along with their rolled Thing posters and probably others. So if anyone wants a Hellraiser I recommend them.

I agree. Since I got so much help here I like to continue the cycle. In fact I probably should have posted this in my newb thread since it is sort of a starting reference for newbs.

This one just arrived from emovieposter, and as usual excellent packaging and fast shipping. A real beaut IMO for Brute and the Beast a.k.a. Massacre Time. An outstanding vintage poster for which the picture does not do justice. It almost looks like a painting in person. There is a high possibility that it will get the permanent frame treatment some day.

Picked this up the other week, has a small tear on the bottom part, otherwise it's in jollygood condition.

Was looking at the craigs list Items For Sale. I just confirmed this buy from a seller in Thousand Oaks, for a whopping 10.00 plus a few dollars to mail it to me. Im pretty certain it is an Aussie one sheet for EMPIRE. I'm not a huge SW poster fan, so it may be handed off, at some point, but, for now, the price seemed right. Here's the image I snagged from the ad:

Once again, if you're reading this Jeff, please consider selling it to me if you don't intend to keep the poster! I'll trade you blood or organs or at least make you a couple hundred dollars profit!
I'll bake you a cake or something!

Need I bring up the Satoshi Kon thread? I'll do just about anything.

Chris,
I told him to place it between heavier, NON corrugated cardboard, before he mailed it.. he wrote back saying that would not be a problem. and if the shipping goes up (he was going to let me know about the extra weight), im totally fine with that, too.

Yeah at 2 dollars shipping I figured he would fold it up into a manali envelope and shoot it your way.

Okay, I won this in March, but received it in May (so it fits the criteria of the thread). As a fan of military history I love ZULU & ZULU DAWN, even though Burt Lancaster sported the worst Irish accent ever in the latter. I've been slowly (very slowly) picking up pieces that appeal to for both of these films. This would be my first one for ZULU DAWN

Sorry for the confusion. Since my camera sucks, I sometimes post stock photos and didn't notice that was signed. (I end up taking pics of the real posters when I frame them, of course.) I've corrected it.

I used to have a still of VP I found in a trash can, cant find it, but it MUST be somewhere (I never throw anything out) found it 20+ years ago, and it was a colour shot of him in an electical appliance store of some kind standing in front of a display of Vacuum cleaners, looked like he was there as a promotional gig for the vacuum cleaners or something. Very strange. No mention of his name or anything (but I know that mug anywhere), just a huge sign about the hoovers and a pretty girl on display..

An extra crease on the Re-Animator but I got it for a great price.

Picked up this Branagh Banner.... Hated the film, but this banner is quite good (and cheap). Photographing it is not so good, so excuse the pics.

Yes it would be much cooler if the film had even been half decent Paul.
I think you should leave it hanging outside your house as a beacon for all poster pilgrims :)

Beauty Armin.
clap First rate Armin, I'm looking for that one myself...
Thanks Chris and Paul.
I don't know too much about quads. Is the I WAS A TEENAGE WEREWOLF one rare?
Armin
-
It's quite a scarce beast, I have maybe seen a hand full in all the years I've been collecting. Yours looks to be in jollygood condition also. Don't forget the U.K. print runs were never the amount of the U.S. anyway. Great find Armin.
I'll leave the banner up Chris, so Armin knows where to drop off that Teenage Werewolf Quad... ;)

Catching up...

Very nice, Dale, CJ, and Armin.
These arrived a few days ago from Travis (tence33). He's a great guy to do business with and the packaging was top notch - a PVC pipe with PVC caps on the ends and it could probably be run over by a dump truck and still be fine. My first vinyl and it is pretty nice IMO. Never realized how thick the vinyl is on these. And a Vanilla Sky bus shelter. These are freakin' huge so I'll just use Travis' pics.

Nice.. but the price range on this one can vary widely. Bruce sold one on March 11, 2010, for $18.00; he also sold one in March 27, 2008 for 76.00 and for 90.00 in Feb of 2001. Higher prices were obtained in the earlier part of the decade.

I'm aware of these auctions. I used them many a-times to try to haggle down sellers on eBay. I'd have to say that the $18.00 one was a fluke, because as the other eMovie auctions demonstrate and my entire history of watching them come and go on eBay, the poster has enough of a demand to command a $75 price tag nearly every time. Not just the long-standing BINs, either.
I still consider my $45 a fantastic deal, consider what I've been tracking it at. If one comes and goes next week for $18 I guess it won't be as impressive, but until then I'm happy to have kept a whole bunch of pennies in my satchel.
Because I carry a satchel. And I only pay in pennies. They take a long time to count out and are a pain to carry. I'm considering a second satchel.

Great Diabolik - did you get it from FilmPoster.net by chance (http://www.filmposter.net/movieposters/poster/movie/original/danger-diabolik-2/search/1/pno/0/)? I was looking through their new stuff earlier today and noticed it was sold.

No, got it from an Italian dealer. It's cool to see one was for public sale, though. You almost never see this poster.

Can I ask you how much you paid for the UGETSU? You can PM me if you don't want it to be public knowledge.
Would love one, but have never seen it for sale. In fact, come to think of it, I have seen very little Italian paper on Mizoguchi. I only have the due-fogli of THE LIFE OF O-HARU myself.

Thanks, Thomsen. I paid about $90 for the Ugetsu. One of my best finds; I just lucked into it. I love the image. Somehow it nails the mood of the movie, and it's a great portrait of Tanaka. I'll give you a shout if I see another.
I've been looking for the duo-foglio Oharu, but all I've managed to find at a decent price is the below locandina.

Schan, these are two titles that are way up on my list also (like top five). Its still hard to believe i left with paper for both. you should try to make it to cinevent, i saw some posters there that i may never see again face to face (for example argentinian london after midnight)
as several other people have stated that is a beautiful bullit B1. an amazing poster all around.

Here are a few new ones. There's more on my site.

And probably my favorite new one. I've wanted this English 1 sheet ever since Cinema Retro covered the movie in their mag.
(http://www.dlhcollections.com/assets/images/db_images/db_LustForVampireEnglish1.jpg)
And never let it be said that I never buy recent posters. If it grabs me, I get it.

My most recent score just arrived a few minutes ago. Blade Runner 30x40. YES! It's a beaut, a real beaut, much better looking in person. I'm almost glad I didn't take a break after the Pulp Fiction Lucky Strikes because this one really is nice and although not in perfect shape (probably about 7.5/10 IMO) I did get a really good deal on it considering what others have sold for recently.
(http://i766.photobucket.com/albums/xx303/NeoLoco80/DSC00985.jpg)
The only diagram (for lack of a more accurate word) like this I've seen, a similar one on my Videodrome 30x40 but this one is slightly different.
(http://i766.photobucket.com/albums/xx303/NeoLoco80/DSC00988.jpg)
And before any of the "perpetual optimists" on here says that this is a trash poster or it is _____ (something else illogical/untrue) please consider the following picture first. :D
(http://i766.photobucket.com/albums/xx303/NeoLoco80/DSC00970.jpg)
Never seen anything like this on an original before, but using my highly accurate senses, I am 100% certain that this is an authentic original, and I am just mentioning this for anyone who cares.
There appear to be 2 sections on the poster, the upper about 3/4 with the image and the lower 1/4 or so the text, and they do not line up perfectly. The one on Cinemasterpieces (http://www.cinemasterpieces.com/bladerunner3040.jpg) has all of the same markings that I have mentioned, and again I'm just mentioning this because it is something I've never seen before, and figured someone may care.

Is it not odd that the two sections would not line up (if it is an original)?
No accusations, just genuine curiosity!

Geez Louise, Chris, you didn't even mention how kick ass this poster is! :D
Haha. Yeah, the sectioning like that on an original is rather odd, just figured I'd mention it to see if anyone has $0.02 or pure, factual information he/she would like to share.

Looking good, Neo. Great score!
Jeff
-
Very nice Neo, it's another great start to June.. some Jollyfine pieces posted already.. I'm glad to be back in work, I might be able to join in... ;D
Neo, I think those symbols are printers marks to line up the different colours, and sections. perfectly normal on any poster, one line looks slightly out which may account for your misaligning...
-
Sweet poster Neo. I was watching it. Have never read anything bad about the seller.
Agree with Paul. Great start to the month guys.
-

Interesting Mr. Waines. Hmmm...and the plot thickens. As stated elsewhere, I welcome the thoughts on issues that likely very few people know the 100% accurate answers to, and admittedly I don't know nearly as much as many here, so I appreciate most of the remarks from seasoned veterans.
Thanks for the comments y'all.

This copy that Bruce sold, in May of 2007, also appears to have the same, slight misalignment:
(http://emovieposter.com//images/moviestars/20070503/550/30x40_blade_runner_06.jpg)
-
Neo, Here is a similar system, different printers have different methods, but they all do the same thing. This is the traffic light method for the colours, and a cross hair to align them all up...
(http://i590.photobucket.com/albums/ss348/frankenstein31_photos/scan0026-300x188.jpg)
Note that the alignment marks are not meant to be part of the finished product, and only to assist the printer. I guess on "throw away" posters, it's not important so they are left on.

Another nice poster Neo.
I went through the same process with my acquisition a few months back. This alignment issue was the first thing I noticed, but every image I could find has it, so I felt pretty comfortable.
You might also note that the 'ORI' text in Original Score (far left credits) is a slightly, but noticeably different color than the rest of the text block. Once again, this matches all known images (at least as known to me).

laugh1 Oh boy, here we go again (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9QS0q3mGPGg)! Seriously though, thanks for the info, that makes sense about linking up the stuff.
Right on Jason (mind if I call you that or would you prefer Archie/Mr. Leach?). I didn't notice that about the Original Score, good eye. I figure it's better safe than sorry to mention some slight imperfections, if not only to confirm that is what the originals have but also to help the swell guys who make reprints make better ones! :D
Thanks again for the compliments and info, fellas.

I don't mind if Jason is used amongst friends, but I generally prefer Archie on the forums simply due to the lurker factor.
As for the poster, I have a feeling that they didn't care about the 'misalignment' because the one sheets were full bleed and would cut off the offending area.

I hear ya Archie, that's probably part of the reason I prefer to be called Neo, the other part being because I am "the one."
That sounds like another plausible reason for the misalignment.
I forgot to mention those are some nice hauls earlier in the thread.

Cool Night of the Living Dead Quad and Halloween 2 poster! I just bought this on ebay today. It will probably take a week or two shipped from Italy but I wanted to show a scan of my photobusta from Last Man on Earth. This movie was filmed in Rome but based on the scarcity of Ital posters, I suspect it had limited releases in Italy.
(http://www.moviemonstermuseum.com/vp/lmoeItal.jpg)

I tell ya, Mark I would like to see everything you own. There are about 5 people I know of I would like to raid and it goes like this Ed, Mark, Paul, Thierry and Randy Petersen. There may be others out there with higher dollar stuff, but those 5 hit exactly my interests and have gaps I would like to fill!
Step 1, figure out addresses.
Step 2, buy van for domestic borrowing
Step 3, hire international ninjas for UK house raids

Very, very nice. My favorite Vincent Price movie as well as a great poster. Well done!
-
Interestingly, there is no misalignment on the 40x60
The 30x40 would likely have used the same plates as the one sheet. I would guess that they used something else for the 40x60's - I'm not really up on how those were printed, but it probably involved elves.

Ummmm...wow! :o Hildebrandt and the original NOTLD quad together in one haul.

Now we're back down to earth with a crash, I also picked up this... Notice the missing Nunchaku as by the time "Way" was released in the U.K. The BBFC were having a huge clamp down on Nunchaku's. This is how the poster was originally meant to be released, the artists were made aware of the problem.

Well no one is going to post anything after what has just been posted....... So I'll lower the tone with this, and hopefully we can get a few more posters up in June. ;)

Too bad - the world is missing out on His Lord High Excellency of Quad's collection!
You really should download Google Picasa, read the Get Started Guide (http://picasa.google.com/support/bin/static.py?hl=en&page=guide.cs&guide=16027&rd=1), copy your posters pictures into a folder on your computer, and sync/upload them to Google for the world to see. No need to title or keyword them - just send them as is. It could be done in just a few hours. When you get more posters/pics, just put them in the folder and they will automatically be uploaded. No muss, no fuss....

This quad for Silver Bullet arrived yesterday. I bought it through a "non ebay sanctioned deal" from ebay seller torpointferry. I highly recommend buying from him, he was very fast to respond and friendly. This beats the hell out of the one sheet in my opinion. BTW DreamWarrior, glad to see you got a Halloween II!

Also, I have only seen one other of these on ebay, can anyone weigh in on how rare (or common) this is?
Conor
-
Haha, rumbled. I wonder how many fell for it... ;D
I don't really take good pics Mel, the ones I've done are just to show you chaps what I have or have just picked up. I can get around a computer, but I'm not that good at that kind of stuff. I'll see if I can sort out something, Yvonne likes messing around on these things. So maybe able to rope her into it.
How about adding a nunchaku into that Way of the dragon Quad Mel, lets see how it should have looked...
-
Conor as much as I don't like the word, it's more rare than common. I don't have it myself, but that is due to mostly picking up older posters. Lets just say you won't see many...
-
Gotcha, thanks Paul!

SILVER BULLET quad... thumbup

Hell yeah Conor. I have been eagerly waiting for that to arrive. Good score! sm1

A friend gave me this for helping her with some sound design. It's a OS for THE END OF THE AFFAIR. The poster was printed in the US (indicated on the left border area), and uses the same artwork as the US one sheet but I think it was for the Mexican market. What a surprise to see Peter Cushing's name on the poster, too.

Nice, Mel. That's a helluva eclectic haul. Really like the Slave of the Cannibal God and The Burglar . What can I say other than I'm a sucker for hot blonde chicks and mermaids! ;D Please post your findings regarding what you think about the authenticity, or lack thereof, of the international Matrix.

Nice posters, Mel, esp Caddyshack, Burglar and Slave.
But sick, sick, sick, SICK of anything Matrix related. I'm starting to hate this movie.

Why the hatred for The Matrix, T?
-
Because I feel like authentications of Spider-Man, Pulp Fiction and Matrix posters are filling up pages after pages of threads, and really, none of these posters are that great to begin with. Okay, some are rarer than others, but at some point, I think it's time to move on.

Welcome to modern poster collecting T. Long gone are the days where we can authenticate simply through stamps, dimensions and foldlines. I wish I didn't have to resort to pixel-peeping to see if stupid things like hairs are present or artwork is slightly cropped either, but its the name of the game these days...
-
Fair enough, T.
Yeah, Harry, in my experience the authenticating of older posters is a lot easier, and just better overall than for modern posters. For some of the paper in my humble collection, I may refer to a well known professor and allow him to use carbon dating to have precise calculations for their true age. ;D
-
I like that one. A client gave me a couple of Mexican posters a while back. Are these worth anything?
Nice color on the Mexican piece. The left border looks to be slightly trimmed. Overall, tho, the shape looks OK.
-
Picked this up in Bruce's auction last week; the poster is superb minus the trimming... What are your thoughts on trimmed posters? If I linen back it would you even notice?
(http://emovieposter.com//images/moviestars/AA110510/550/argentinean_magnificent_stranger_JM02021_L.jpg)
And this one was perfect no separation on the center folds; awesome!

Hey Charlie-
Linen backing could diminish the look of the missing borders but not totally hide the fact that the borders have been trimmed off. You could have the borders restored, tho, once it was backed, if you wanted to. ;)

I wonder how tricky it would be to put borders back on; have you seen this? It would only be missing the text in the lower right; they could scribe that in. Need a closer shot to see what it reads...

hey Charlie,
Restorers replace /repair borders all the time; any good restorer would not find it tricky. ;D The text printed on the border is possibly either the film title or printer's info.
Jeff

It`s the printer info :)

I have never heard of cleaning a poster. I had an Argentina poster bleached once to "brighten" the colors but I didn't notice a difference. I might have it linen backed or framed. I haven't decided yet
Dennis
-
I think Ari means just giving it a good bath as part of the backing process. A lot of dirt and grime can come out and the colours could be enhanced considerably.
And I agree, that is a beauty of a poster!
-
I agree. A nice bath will make those colors pop!
Jeff

Got to talking with Mel about "The Deep" one of my weak spots; just missed the two sheet a few nights ago.. But after hearing of this one and finding it, I may be ok. Plus the mag had such wonderful articles....lol Guess I would have to have it linen backed to make it a poster poster. It is not the centerfold so the one would have to be trimmed and put together.... Thanks for the tip Mel.

Funny, when i was In Vegas and staying at a hotel, they had a limited DVD selection, the first i chose was THE DEEP. Its a fun film. Like to see it again, But i also think a great example of POSTER/S are better than the film. Shame they dont do that nowadays.

It's a stock photo. It came folded (which doesn't bother me ).
The only other werewolf movie that even comes close to those two, is THE HOWLING. Which I picked up a few weeks ago as well.

The only other werewolf movie that even comes close to those two, is THE HOWLING. Which I picked up a few weeks ago as well.

Ever seen Dog Soldiers? Better than the Howling, but not as good as AWL, IMO. I would also mention Ginger Snaps in that group as well, though it is a bit "teeny" in parts.

Both great recent werewolf flicks. The best part about Ginger Snaps is that you can watch it with a mixed-gender crowd. My women friends loved it!

I've seen Dog Soldiers, love the werewolf design. I just have a special place in my heart for Joe Dante films, and great make-up. I've always felt that monster movies are like a showcase of amazing make-up work and both AWL and THE HOWLING had amazing transformations at the time. So as flawed as the movie is, I still love it cause of its great make-up by Rob Bottin. Oddly enough Rick Baker (who won the first make-up Oscar for AWL) was supposed to do THE HOWLING but left it to do AWL, leaving it too Rob Bottin (his assistant at the time(who latter did THE THING)).

Not to dampen your enthusiasm (I'm am in the same boat), but you should be aware, if you are not already, that there are a ton of real rolled RB copies bouncing around, which have really stymied the value of this particular poster. At one point, a few years back, there was a roll of 50 on 'the bay' with a picture of the roll.
For a freebie, that looks to be in pretty good condition.

I got another one from the same seller for The Mechanic and they both have these stickers on them, which add some authenticity to them, or the exact opposite as they could be like the Miramax stamp on the back of Pulp Fiction Lucky Strikes for all I know, but to me these look legit.

Thanks for the confirmation about the posters. I was just messing around about the "cheese with whine". It's one of my new favorite quotes and I couldn't help myself.

yeah the RB advance is much better than the regular one sheet. damn those soft folds moron1, they usually look alright after framing though.
great minds think alike ;D
dream,
nice nightmare. that poster has a great image, and the tag line is just perfect.

While responding to Juli's "What would you do" thread, I realized that I was remiss in showing this fantastic one sheet I bought from her several weeks back. I haven't photographed it yet and the only pic I could find on the internet was this one from some site named eatbrie.com. I hope he don't mind...

Huh. I've never seen that one before. Where did that get sent out to? We got in about a thousand and one different Dragon 1-Sheets/Bus Shelters/Banners but I never saw that one before.

Anthony, does/did your theatre support 3D? Could explain it?

As posted on my site, this is the international version, not meant for US theaters.

I should have guessed that. I was thrown off by the March release date, because my brain for some reason always thinks UK animated movies come out in October.

Great poster Dreamwarrior!

It's the best US 1sh of the series, but I think the quad and thai posters for NOES 1 are better.
Yeah the quad is one of my favorite posters

Not content anymore with only showing pics, I'm going to write about a few of them:

As always, an enjoyable read.
I believe that you have raised the bar. Your insight into poster art and the movies they were created for is priceless. Many of us collectors just post our pics, like trophies in a sort of 'competitive' way. Not only did I get to ogle your new paper, but I was treated to the rationale behind a fellow collector's purchases. Extremely interesting and entertaining.
The addition of the embedded video clips is also very special.
Bravo, Wim!
I look forward to your next post.

Well, I am back from Afghanistan, and am slowly going through a giant pile of tubes that were waiting for me when I got home. I am mostly through the Japanese material. The US stuff and prints I have not broken into yet. Anyway, here are some of the new horses in my stable:
Airport '80 B1 -- Well, the original title of this film was Airport '79 which makes sense as it was released in 1979. But, unlike the sun, Japan saw this film after the rest of the world, in 1980 as luck would have it. The Concorde was kind of a big deal within the aviation industry, so it is no surprise that it would be used as the subject of a disaster film, but it is a rather chilling foreshadowing of the problems to come with the fastest ever commercial airliner.
(https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-m3QjxY63mGk/TfX57GIBPxI/AAAAAAAAF7E/fwkcZt_QaiY/s800/Airport%25252080%252520B1.jpg)
Makai Tensho (aka Samurai Resurrection) B1 -- This is a 2003 Japanese period epic with a little bit of sci-fi mixed in. It had some continuity problems and historical inaccuracies, but the great cinematography made it an overall enjoyable film. In my opinion, though, the poster far eclipses what it was created to advertise.
(https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-4VtkzLyKAXM/TfX5SxQOd3I/AAAAAAAAF7A/spP24S7nnUk/s800/Makai%252520Tensho%252520B1.jpg)
Virtual Wars (aka Lawnmower Man) B1 -- Though it was generally considered a failure, I really liked this film. Unfortunately, I had never seen any poster images from it that really did it for me.......until this came along. The right edge is a bit rough, but for this one, I won't complain too much. The art is by Suchidaa.
(https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-CRgBFHxA4ks/TfYBKsOBHzI/AAAAAAAAF9E/dwHo7pKuYkM/s800/Lawnmower%252520Man%252520B1.jpg)
Southern Cross (aka The Highest Honor) B1 -- This poster inspired me to look for the film and give it a watch. A combined Austrailian/Japanese effort, it tells an interesting WWII story. Having grown up in the USA learning from American textbooks and being fed predominantly American film, I really enjoy seeing international perspectives on war. Not an awesome film, but serviceable, and definitely worth checking out for fans of the genre.
(https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-7W0XXMDZGP0/TfX6TQYc_cI/AAAAAAAAF7U/TsnmQBw26ws/s800/Southern%252520Cross%252520B1.jpg)
Battle Royale II B1 -- The first Battle Royale was awesome. The second one was mediocre, but was worth watching for someone who liked the first. This one was hard to photograph because of the foil and high gloss embossed blood.
(https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-UZGlJsCGEb8/TfX7IS6L3CI/AAAAAAAAF8A/aQZeKGZpe68/s800/Battle%252520Royale%252520II%252520B1.jpg)
Grenoble B1

Great to have you back from Afghanistan, Schan.
These Japanese posters are the ticket.
SAMURAI RESURRECTION is very, very cool.

Welcome home Schan.
All of it excellent but Im liking the Downhill Racer best.

Schan, I really like that Lawnmower Man B1 - very nice sm1
Paul, even though the image is out of focus, the colours still look rather vibrant!
Best,

I've had that great skiing poster, but it's not 'Downhill Racer' - it's the Olympics documentary 'Grenoble'/'13 Days in France'.
A beauty, in any case.

Last night, I won this pretty cool "Downhill Racer" poster at the Heritage weekly auction but I think Schan's Grenoble poster is superior:

Got three tubes in the mail today and I picked up my monthly backlog from a local. I am trying out a new presentation through the web. I think it is pretty awesome; make sure to hit the flip button on the poster for description. Let me know what you guys think about the tiltviewer app I am using. Thinking about doing the entire website with it.

Ok its 1:30ish. I created galleries for each poster; close ups, credits, etc. and was able to figure out how to provide a link on the back of the photo "More..." it will take you to the gallery for that specific poster. To get back I placed a link back to the original June Acquisitions page. I hope you find it as entertaining as I did. If you don't WTF? ;D

Hi Juli,
It's actually a German film titled "Der Raub der Mona Lisa" from 1931. The poster is an original US release. I haven't seen the film - I just liked the artwork! It does have a 8.2/10 rating on imdb (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0022295/)
-
Chris thats more great paper. What size is that Theft of The Mona Lisa?
Thanks! It is currently 14x18 but would have been 14x22 (it is a US window card and the top blank portion has been trimmed but nothing important is missing thankfully)

It is a great image. Although mine is stained (as the picture shows) at least the Hod Rod babe is saved and I didn't pay too much for it...

Yes, that one caught my eye also, Armin.
Reminds me of TATTOO with Bruce Dern and Maud Adams.
The Japanese title translates as Tattoo of the Virgin. Toei studio produced two artworks for this movie, illustration and regular photo version. The movie was probably based on a manga, as that is usually the case when they produced illustration posters.

Juli, I actually think the film might be in the public domain now (not that that makes it any easier to find a copy!)
Thanks for the comments on the poster - like most nice pieces it's a combination of luck, perserverance and looking in the "right places" so to speak. Heritage sold a lobby card in 2009: http://movieposters.ha.com/c/item.zx?saleNo=7003&lotNo=87104
I did locate an image of the one sheet (but I have no idea where it came from or if it has ever been for sale):

A couple bus shelters arrived yesterday.
(http://i766.photobucket.com/albums/xx303/NeoLoco80/DSC01024.jpg)
A very good movie IMO. Unfortunately when the tube arrived someone decided to make a boomerang out of it, as it was cut halfway down the tube and had about a 15 degree bend in the middle. It was a very strong tube, I jumped on it (220+ pounds) halfway down each section and it took a few jumps for it to dent a little bit, so I can't imagine what they did, but I'm not too mad about it for various reasons, one being that the guy immediately gave me a full refund after I told him about it.

This guy 276-2009 (http://myworld.ebay.com/276-2009/) on Ebay is a good dude to buy from. He has a lot of cool bus shelters and I have gotten a few from him that were in good nick and at good prices. He sold another one of these a week ago and I bid $42 on it because I was getting another from him at the same time and would save $15 in shipping, but got outbid and it sold for $44. Luckily he had another and I won the auction for the opening bid at $10, so even with the shipping I still saved $20. Sometimes global weirding is kewell. ;D

These arrived from Mr. Amethyst about a week ago. Mighty kind of him to hook me up with them. He had mentioned that he suspected them to be minty whites. I'm not a big lobby card guy, this is actually my first set, and I've never even seen one in person, but IMHO there is something that is a little off with them. A few things about them are not what I would expect, including the colors, on an original from 20 years ago, the colors just seem dull and I'm not sure how to describe, and again just not what I would expect on an original. Of course, I could be wrong, but I call it like I see it, and I would say these are "minty whites" if someone asked me, but it was cool of Mr. Amethyst to hook me up with them as it is one of my favorite movies.

A comparison of the colors to an original one sheet, actually the first of many posters I have bought from emovieposter.com.
(http://i766.photobucket.com/albums/xx303/NeoLoco80/DSC01030.jpg)
One thing that is strange though is they do have these marks on them, I have mentioned them before and I have no idea what they are but any suggestions would be appreciated to learn me on them.

Looks like a nice haul, Neo. Just 2 quick questions. You are saying that the lobby cards could be minty whites? Do repro lobbies fall into that potential descriptive, as well? I thought it was usually just typical of repro inserts.
And second, what marks are you seeing in that close up? Are you talking about the tiny dots (which are from the printing process)? Or is there something else to look for?
best.

Jeff,
Yeah, there are "minty white" lobby cards (http://www.movieposterforum.com/index.php?/topic/4540-new-minty-white-lobby-card-reproductions-are-here/).
The designs in the second pic are like a dotted circle with a dot in the center, all somewhat connected across the poster. The first time I heard about them was when Wonka mentioned them (http://www.allposterforum.com/index.php/topic,804.0.html)after Carson said there were reprints for the B1 Totoro and Wonka examined his poster for some clues regarding its authenticity, and he took a picture of the dots, and said he believed the designs added to the authenticity of his. Now that I just looked at those pictures, the "dot matrix" (?) as he referred to it is a lot more bold on his pictures and on a few other posters I own than they are on these lobbies. Are you saying they are a part of the printing process? Why are they only on some posters? I feel like a rookie original movie poster collector again. woohoo

Neo,
Thanks for pointing me to that Bruce article, re the minty white lobbies.. I appreciate it.
Re the dot matrix pattern-- it looks to be part of the process, but, if they are minty whites, that could account for the lighter appearing pattern. The sherlocking begins. :D

No problem. Thanks to Bruce for his detective work, and all others who have also formed irrefutable proof that certain things are not authentic. And yeah, you're probably right about how the lightness of the patterns is possibly indicative of the lobbies being copies of originals.

I love movie items like these 3-D glasses, I don't think they are especially scarce as they were quite cheap. Mel you should be able to pick some up on Ebay, they pop up from time to time. I like they are mentioned on the 1sht, I may keep a look out for it now, the Quad is, well it's this....

Wow, never saw THE MASK / EYES OF HELL quad before...
IMO it blows the one sheet away....
Methinks you should just glue your mask in the bottom left... wynk

That's a great THE MASK quad, never seen that before.
I really like the film and have a couple of posters and lobby cards for it. Maybe one day people will recognise what an unusual film it is.

Nice VICE AND VIRTUE, Paul.
As for 2010 and THE BRIDE, I'll bet you'll like each.
2010 is very good -- no Kubrick -- but a fine Hyams film.
Here's a trailer http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qfxP2Ct9aYs (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qfxP2Ct9aYs)
Clancy Brown plays the Frankenstein monster in THE BRIDE and his relationship with little person David Rappaport makes for a strong undercurrent to the main story.

Simes, I know how fun it is for you to find rare Bond stuff like that much less score these things. Really happy for you.
Paul, that Vadim piece is pretty great. His work is hard to decipher at first, you don't really know where he is going but when you do, he usually gets there. Solid director.

Cheers fella.
I am painfully aware that my scope is limited to just one genre and that others here can happily collect across genres with total abandon - so my posting is far less than my reading on these boards. I do try to read everything going on here.
Further to the purchase, I was also amazed to find it was a rolled version. Although it advertised it as such, I figured it might have been folded, then rolled. Not so.
And thanks again to Adam for pointing it out.
Am also looking at picking a few other things up that have only been brought to my attention courtesy of the Bond thread elsewhere. Great source of info.
Cheers all.

No problem, Simes.
Really happy you got the poster!
Always great to see sincere collectors like yourself get something high on their search list.

Thanks for the kind words about my Creature from the Black Lagoon lobby card. It's the best card in the set. I've only seen it a couple of times searching the poster shops in Hollywood and Chicago and both times it was cut. Someone cut out the Creature and later tried to tape him back into the card.
Just got this Robot Monster MLC in the mail today. I used to collect the Mexican lobbies until someone started to reprint the Universal monster movies and pass them off as 1960's RR lobbies. I couldn't resist this lobby card with Robot Monster art and a scene from Devil Bat (I think)

DeadTeen88 is my friend and fellow horror nut. He isn't much of a tech guy so I help him with photos and we check the forum together sometimes. He posted a response while at my house without logging me out and logging himself in. If the Devil's Reject's and Creepshow 2 posters were mine I would claimed them as my own for sure. 8) I need to get him to explore the forum on his own more to bask in its greatness. ;)

Thanks all for the props. Lets just say I was delighted when the theatre manager lead me to the vault after I gave the old "do you guys have any movie posters laying around" one liner. Usually I get the run around when I ask them about scoring posters. Unfortunately the theatre was only about 7 years old so I knew I wasn't going to run into anything too crazy.

Well I asked the manager at the theater tonight if he had any posters he was going to throw out. In a very professional manner, he explained how they used the posters as giveaways and as incentives for the employees etc. but then.... Said if there was one in particular that I wanted he would be happy to set it aside if I left my name and number. I told him that I didn't have a specific one in mind but asked if I could call or contact him and he said sure I am here all the time just ask for him.
So now, which one should I ask for? Captain America, Super 8; is there one coming out that is just downright awesome. I figure I can send him a handwritten note for effect... Thanks Severen!

I don't buy many posters at the moment, but a just got my hands on these Danish rarities:
Danish poster for 'The Pit and the Pendulum' from 1962. The artwork is basically the same as seen on a number of European posters for the film and is, I believe, identical to the US six-sheet. Here it was re-drawn by well-known Danish poster artist Wenzel. I especially like the color combination of yellow and green which is unique to this version.
(http://i524.photobucket.com/albums/cc324/Thomsen1973/Plakater/BrndenogpenduletDK.jpg)
Next up is the very rare Danish first release poster for Orson Welles' 'Touch of Evil' from 1959. The Danish title 'Politiets blinde øje' translates into 'The Blind Eye of the Police'. I have never seen another copy of this.
(http://i524.photobucket.com/albums/cc324/Thomsen1973/Plakater/PolitietsblindejeDK.jpg)
Finally, an exploitation classic, the Danish poster for 'Ilsa, Harem Keeper of the Oil Sheiks'. Pretty much identical to the US one-sheet.
(http://i524.photobucket.com/albums/cc324/Thomsen1973/Plakater/lf-7.jpg)
I got the latter surprisingly cheap from Heritage. The two first have been part of the inventory at a local poster shop for years, but the owner wanted too much for them for my taste and wallet. Luckily, an acquaintance of mine who owns a small curiosity shop recently traded with the guy and ended up with most of his movie poster collection. So I was able to get them from my acquaintance for a much more reasonable price.

Three sharp posters, Thomsen.
I still have to get some Danish posters for my collection.
They are certainly unique and striking.

I've been swamped with work and baby lately so I haven't been posting as much. But I did pick up these three last night at eMovie. The first two are large Czech posters, which I've been particularly enamored with lately. But, I'm stoked about the Conversation poster... that is one of my all-time favorite movies and I think that Russian poster might be the best paper on the title (if a little abstract for some people's tastes....).

Nice. I hesitated on the Bardot poster, almost went for it, but was confused about its size. The title said 11x16in (or something like that), but the description said 23x33in. So I figured the title was right and let it go. I'd be pissed if it ended up being the larger format.
Nice buy regardless.

Why?

I hardly ever get to contribute a new Japanese monster piece to the threads, but finally picked up something this year:
Not super exciting, but an original Japanese lobby card for Space Monster Dogora. Never released to theaters in the US (and not in many other countries either) and lobbies are especially hard to find.

I'm fairly certain it is the larger format Czech (A1). It was originally listed in a group of large Czechs and it has the same fold pattern as well. At least I hope it is as I've stopped collecting the smaller posters!

Holiday, You ever heard of a B3 sized Japanese poster? Sent you a message...

Holiday, You ever heard of a B3 sized Japanese poster? Sent you a message...
B3 posters (nakazuri) are commonly used in trains/subways and are usually horizontally oriented instead of vertical.
And thanks Holiday. :)
-
Holiday, You ever heard of a B3 sized Japanese poster? Sent you a message...
I responded. Most of the response bears repeating:
Generally, on sizes, you can work off a B2. A B1 (about 40 1/2 x 28") is 2x a B2 (about 20 1/4 x 28). A B3 (about 14 x 20" ) is 1/2 a B2, and is horizontal, like a quad. Chirashi is actually B5, and is 1/2 the B3 - about 7" x 10". B4 is the so-called "speed" size, and is 10 " x 28 " (1/2 the B2, vertically).

Both the international and Japan sizes are listed in detail on Wikipedia: (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paper_size)

I hope anonymouse is not on this board because s/he is not very resourceful (putting it diplomatically). S/he paid $138 for this Toy Story 3 poster last week although there are TWO reputable dealers selling double-sided posters of this on Ebay for less than $40.

Here's what I love about the supposed "reputable" dealers, by way of example:
At Movieposterkings we specialise in both original and high quality reproduction movie posters.
I, for one, think anonymouse is doing just fine, because s/he is sticking with a dealer s/he knows very well. Sometimes it's worth a little extra not to have to deal with the dickheads on ebay and their shitty packing, their shitty shipping practices, their shitty communication, and their overall shitty ebay seller ways. Personally, I have not bought from an ebay seller in over two years, unless it's someone I know personally, like Ted (brude).

Hey, man, I like Emovie too but I sure as hell ain't paying a $120 premium for a not uncommon poster. It sold for $15 last week on Ebay, about 1/10 of what it sold for on Emovie:
(http://i691.photobucket.com/albums/vv275/Forty_Candles/TS3.jpg)
Sure, with Emovie you get 100% customer satisfaction. On Ebay you get 95% customer satisfaction. You take a small risk for an enormous financial benefit.

I agree with Holiday on that one Matt. Very nice B1 to pop your cherry with! I only got 2 this time. Filled a hole in my Indy collection though with this half subway. And then snagged a nice 30x40 that should look good in my card room!

Congrats on that one, Dr. Caul. It's good to see that I'm not the only one who doesn't go crazy on bidding when one of the bidders is someone in the APF posse. ;D Very good bidding on your part for that one. I actually just saw the movie this morning, pretty good, definitely made me laugh when in most movies I wouldn't at stuff like that. The Coens truly are masters in their respective genre and that B1 will surely be a classic.
(http://i766.photobucket.com/albums/xx303/NeoLoco80/japanese_b1_matrix_NZ02424_L.jpg)
I scored this one, and really didn't even plan on bidding for it until about 7 minutes remaining in the auction when I thought to myself "that would look pretty sweet in one of my B1 frames" and also noticed there was no crazy bidding war like on a couple of The Matrix onesheets at emovieposter. Entered the bid for giggles and am stoked that I won it. ;D
(http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3099/3132449891_f833c75ee7_z.jpg)
So THAT'S Anonymouse! :D That guy really goes after quite a few of those on emovieposter, but based on his bidding, he seems like an alright guy. Did anyone else see the person with the username "mousekiller"? laugh1 I wonder who that might be? :-\
The courtesy for others that Holiday mentioned kind of had me randomly wondering for a few seconds while I was driving "who the hell all the bidders are on emovieposter, Heritage, Ebay, etc.?" I don't know if anyone here showed some mercy on me for The Matrix B1 but if so, I appreciate it, and I do the same for others here...(most of the time, except The Big Lebowski B1 that I outbid Mr. Brie on, and a couple others). There really must be quite a few people who have some nice collections and a lot more who just have a few pieces, and it's kind of surprising how there are so few on forums. Do y'all think some of the guests here are like "regulars" who are collectors and would rather remain anonymous instead of joining the party?
-
I believe that for every one of us that talk publicly and who display our collections, there's 3 or 4 out there who keep to themselves and quietly build their collections. It's almost like predicting a black hole based on the absence of light - those quiet ones suck up a lot of good pieces that are never seen again in collections that are visible online. So, there must be big collectors out there who are taking those pieces.
On the Matrix B1, it's another good one. Had I not had one of my own, I'd have had no choice but to run you down on it ;-) As it is, when I don't truly need a piece to fill a cornerstone area of my collection, I will usually push to someone I know who is in the bidding. Sometimes, if I know there's going to be conflict, I will speak with the person and we'll work something out. Thierry and I have done that in the past when we knew we were after a lot of the same stuff. Now, though, I suspect that the bidding goes to high at Bruce's auctions such that Thierry does not bid much there. He's right, because I'm finding it harder and harder to buy as well. There were a lot of sophisticated buyers out tonight, to be sure.
-
Doh, I completely forgot about it or else it would have been game on. It's OK though, I still have the one sheet to keep me company, but really good posters for Coen Brothers flicks can be hard to come by...

'Shafts of Light'...

When I saw it was you, Harry, I laid off the Blood Simple. It's an excellent poster to begin a B1 collection with. Congrats.
I didn't even realize I was bidding against you! I checked my competition in the last 5-6 minutes, but didn't see any familiar names. However, when I got outbid I was rebidding on my iphone while cooking dinner so I couldn't see who it was. I'm glad I didn't! Sorry bout that...
I can't tell if I overpaid anyway, given that it is a 2000 poster. Bruce sold one back in 2009 on linen for like $40. Blood Simple is up there movie-wise for me so I wanted some nice paper on the title. However, I normally don't buy modern posters on linen so I skipped that one. Oh well, I'm happy with what I paid, even if it was a bit on the high side.
Now if I can only find one of the original release (rolled) neon border one sheets.... Walterfilm has one for $700, but I'm not ready to shell out that kind of cash for one just yet!
-

That makes sense. Almost like guys with art that was stolen and I bet some is sold for enormous amounts of money on the black market. I mean where the hell does a priceless, stolen Van Gogh painting or something like that end up? Kind of off topic with paintings, but yeah, the poster collections from the ultra anonymous people could be similar.

Haha. Yeah, I hear ya about engaging in a bidding war regardless of the person for one that is high on the "want list." It did look like there were a lot of very calculated bids tonight, and it's funny that you mentioned the part about the "sophisticated bidders" because I actually did feel a little more like a "sophisticated buyer" after the auction. :D One that has been on my "want list" for quite a while, the Return of the Jedi Style B 30x40 I decided to either scratch off the list or wait for one at a very low price, as I'm not really into being the completist any more, and am content with these two Star Wars 30x40s, and I'm probably good with just the A New Hope since the ESB GWTW smells like an ashtray and needs some restoration (IMO) that at this point I'm not sure I will ever do to it. So I allowed Dave to win the bidding battle on the ROTJ and decided to accept the title of "non-completist." :D

I paid $25 for mine out of an ad in MCW in the pre-eBay days. I knew that they were quite scarce even then and was shocked to see one listed. One dealer even told me to not bother looking for one. Maybe I should have asked if she had more than one...

When you get it, you will realize it's one of the finest posters in your collection, Mel, and it will make you want to get a B1 lightbox. I have both versions, and both are really spectacular in the lighbox. I hope you enjoy this one as much as I do.

I certainly don't buy from Bruce as much as I used to. Way too expensive nowadays. 90% of the fun is about finding items cheaply, and sometimes I scratch my head when I see what people spend on Bruce's auctions. At one of his most recent auctions, he sold a number of newer posters (90s on) i already owned for 10k. I spent about 1k for the same items. You do the math.

It does look like a perfume ad. Without context I would have pegged it as one. Maybe I've been living under a rock but I have never heard of the film... Still the flowing hair and dress are beautiful! Nice one Mel...
I inquired with Schan about the Priceless B1 but I am mentally fightind myself between buying posters for their just their presentation and beauty or buying posters for the films and artist I love. The Priceless poster is a beauty; love the line of Audrey Tautou, but I've never seen the movie.... However, after seeing Amelie I bought both french large versions and a subway posters none a beautiful as the Priceless poster. Ah, decisions, decisions....

I agree hands down. Its like Bruce's auction is the only place to buy posters. Before I bid I started running my target items through Terapeak (ebay software 90 days worth of data) to see if I was being foolish. A great example tonight I targeted the suspected Singing in the Rain Soundtrack Poster It was thought that it may have come with a vinyl record; it was at $4 looked up record on eBay for $4 with two other posters with the album... I think someone ended up buying each one for $4 or more each. But then do you really want album posters...
-
"I certainly don't buy from Bruce as much as I used to. Way too expensive nowadays"
Of late, there HAVE been higher prices on a lot of things. Part of this is that we have some newer buyers who pay more than you "old timers" and part of it is that we have been lucky enough to get some groups of really nice consignments, and those better items help lift up the more "regular" items.
But these things ALWAYS go in cycles. As more people think "I won't bid because prices are too high" then their absence lowers prices, and then there ARE good deals again (Kind of like Yogi Berra saying a restaurant was "so crowded that no one ate there anymore'!).
Just keep watching our items, and before too long that next cycle will start, and you want to be there when it does (and in the meantime, there ARE quite a few great deals even still, just not as many as there are sometimes on "better" items).

I prefer the top image,its much more disturbing,the forehead of the victim is more visible,making it a bit more "real".
Stew
Yeah, Stew, been thinking about this - I have to agree.
Regarding this 'anonymouse' buyer on emovieposter - I'm probably repeating what others have already said, but it is up to them where they buy from, therefore, no-one should criticise that person, or any other person for that matter when it comes to buying.
I know a lot of people use eBay religiously, but I'm sure I'm not the only one in knowing others who never buy from eBay & buy exclusively from Christies, emovieposter or Heritage. Some people simply don't have the time to trawl over every website going and thus stick to what they know and feel comfortable with.
I for one feel more comfortable with private buying, but do venture into eBay, Heritage & emovieposter when I see something I want.

I agree that Anonymouse shouldn't be criticized; to each his own. I think his presence is a good gut check for some of us to realize that there are deals to be had out there. And if he's a Brit buying in pounds then he does have an advantage over me, at the least, and most of us dealing in US dollars. But that is all irrelevant; he can buy what he wants, it is his money and he does make some very good buys. I guess I would own up to being a bit jealous, wishing I could throw around money like that. I have a set aside budget that I have to work within; so if I am going to continue to collect I have to be resourceful unless it is just a "got to have it" item.
And private buying is, I feel, the best way; I get so many good deals. I have several local dealers that will hold stuff for me - deals waiting to be completed many months into the future. But I don't want to tell anyone about those....
Very good point Ad..

I wish I could spend like that too. Last week he or she knocked me out of the box before I even got close to bidding on two or three items that are on that want list. More power to him.
Like you if Im going to stay in the hobby or more importantly stay in my condo I have to stick to my budget and want list. Its not so easy though when you have the fever.

Well, Sean, Heritage has sold the original three times for an average of $14,339. I bought the re-release for $60. So I invite you to bring your copy of the original to DC and, in return for showing it to me, I'll let you hang out in the boat I'm going to buy with the $14,279 I saved. :)
I agree that Anonymouse shouldn't be criticized; to each his own. I think his presence is a good gut check for some of us to realize that there are deals to be had out there.
I've got a sneaking suspicion Anonymouse may surface one of these days and admit that s/he blew it big time on a couple of purchases this week and that s/he could have saved a ton of money with just a couple of quick Ebay and Google searches.
But it's all about dollar cost averaging. You win some, you lose some. I shelled out $500 each for a couple of linen-backed posters a few months ago that I thought were relatively rare and I had run out of patience waiting for them. I had to buy custom frames for them for $200 because they were slightly larger than 27x41. A few weeks later some excellent condition unbacked copies for both of them sold for around $100 each. So I spent $1,000 unnecessarily and will never recover my investment on those two posters. But then a month ago I landed a so-rare-it's-practically-nonexistent Animal House advance for $100 that I could probably sell for $500, maybe more. Then I picked up a very rare Matrix international poster and a very rare LA Confidential international poster for $60 each, which are probably worth much more if properly auctioned. So in the end I've probably broken even.

I have seen at least one case in the last few weeks where anonymouse bid a poster significantly over what the same poster was going for over in Bruce's fixed price gallery. One thing to remember though is that a single bidder cannot send the price up out of control. It takes at least two.
I did OK yesterday. Picked up a 30x40 of Damn Yankees for $22 and a couple of car rally posters for a buck each. What Bruce said is spot on, except that there are good days even in times when the averages are high. I find the weeks before and after major auctions to be good for second tier stuff.

no-one should criticise that person, or any other person for that matter when it comes to buying.
What's that? I'll criticize anyone I want whenever I want, and especially Jaws1975 (or Bullitt1969). Actually, not criticize, more make fun of, like one would of a ridiculous person with half a brain.

Well, T, why should anyone criticise someone else for what they buy and for how much?
That's my point. I've been guilty of that in the past, but really only towards his Lordship.
There are people who ought to be criticised (or made fun of as you say), granted, such as those who regularly buy on eBay etc, preach about who has the best prices and whatnot, but who then spend a fortune on a poster they could get cheaper elsewhere.
We all know you don't give flying feck who you criticise lol!

I believe based on items bid on that anonymouse is not so anonymous.

My point being, if someone repeatedly buy the same crap at ridiculous prices (when it can be obtained elsewhere for cheaper), he's obviously missing some marbles.

The gods must have heard me praying; and granted my wishes. Just literally stole this DS Advance off the eBay for $50. Burning the midnight oil has its advantages; it wasn't in my saved searches this morning. Feeling like a kid at Christmas. Now just have to pray Royal Mail doesn't screw it up!

I'm not sure if I do now, Archie. What's the story?
It's a fake poster that the licensed reprinters mocked up to look like a real poster. Sam wasn't included in the actual UK poster campaign because he wasn't as big of a star as Bruce, Uma, Travolta or Keitel at the time. His popularity exploded with the release of Pulp Fiction (after these advances were printed) and the reprinters 'photo-shopped' (mocked up, threw together, etc.) their own version to satisfy demand. They even used different fonts.
I laid it all out here:

Now that you mention it, I recall it. There's a similar case I think with a Kill Bill poster being reprinted in the UK. None of them are particularly thrilling and I didn't pay much for them. Thanks for the info.

Yeah, pretty devastating, huh? The Internetz says she had violet eyes that looked green in certain films. Tough to find true color pics of her. I'm pretty sure the first pic is a real color photo, the next two may be colorized:

she was always famous for having violet eyes.

I have become a big fan of Argentine paper -- mostly because of you, Matias.
These latest additions to your collection are very, very nice.
Do you have plans of launching a site in the near future?
I, for one, would like to see all your stuff under one online roof.

Thanks Adam, do you know where I can get Dr No and From Russia with love for a couple of hundred each.... ;D
Great poster Matias, I may have to look more into these Argentinian posters.. ;)

Thanks Ted, Paul and Jeff. I`ve been after these two for a while, but couldn´t get them for one reason or the other, so I`m happy they`re home now! ;D
About the site, it will have to happen eventually. The time is tight by now, but hopefully someday...
-
Paul - when you say you have a quad from every Bond film apart from a few you can't afford, can I ask what you mean by that?
For example, I too cannot afford the quads from the first four films, but I also Do have a quad of sorts for Dr No (a re-release with the characters in b/w on yellow background), a FRWL re-release quad with Connery's floating head on a red and black background, and a Park Circus Gf quad.
And nothing from Thunderball.
I only ask since the first four quads are all roughly the same price but you appear to have Dr No represented...
As for my acquisitions, I am awaiting;
A Spy Seiko quad.
An alternate credits Moonraker quad - which Royal Mail HAS stuffed up and so am now to go through the compensation route for what was an otherwise mint rolled poster!
Live/Let Die US Colour still set.
The first two items again sourced upon being made aware of their existence in another thread...
-
What I mean is I have one Quad for every first release, bar the two I mentioned. There's two versions for Goldfinger, I only have the body version, and not the Hand one. I think there are 3 versions (? Adam may help out here) for You only live twice, I only have the style "C", and so on. It's not an area I would be a completist in as Horror films are my thing, but I do like the Bond films so have picked up a few over the years.
Clear as Mud I hope....
Edit:- Just noticed you mention I have Dr No represented.... I don't have a Dr No Quad at all, not even a re-release!!
-
... I think there are 3 versions for You only live twice, I only have the style "C" ...
Yup.
Style A - Volcano artwork by Frank McCarthy
Style B - Little Nellie artwork by Frank McCarthy
Style C - Bathhouse artwork by Robert McGinnis (not McCarthy as per Christie's catalogue!)

Hi, Simes!
Forgive me asking if you have already described it elsewhere, but could you tell us more about this poster, please?
Best wishes,
Terry - www.quadbod.co.uk
-
Thanks Terry, Wasn't quite sure if it was 3 or 4...
-
Actually, there is technically a fourth YOLT quad (which I believe Adam kindly posted on the James Bond poster thread) which is the logo on a yellow background. Whether this is part of a myler haley set I don't know but very few have surfaced over the years.
-
Hi, Simes!

There is discussion about the two versions here Terry: http://www.allposterforum.com/index.php/topic,405.msg26674.html#msg26674
There is also a Moonraker Seiko quad, so from what I understand there are three quads total from that film (not including Myler Haley's or double-bills).
-
Thanks for the link! I've just checked our recent stock images and find we have had both without noticing the difference!
In the UK campaign book, the illustration of the quad is the one with 'Ian Fleming's' immediately above 'MOONRAKER' - ie - the version which appears more often.
So, either the scarce one was printed BEFORE the campaign book and the alteration implemented before the book was printed - OR - the alteration was later than the campaign book and may have been printed in a smaller quantity for re-release use.
I know the word 'Nottingham' in the printer's credit at the bottom right corner is sometimes cropped short. Does that happen on only one of these two versions?
Best wishes,
Terry - www.quadbod.co.uk
-
Nottingham is in full evidence on the other quad too - althought it is a tight squeeze.
If you're interested in different printings, I do have two versions of the From Russia with Love UK Campaign book that is actually printed by two totally different printers, and has the most minor of differences on the last page together with a different paper stock for the two.
Never knew that this sort of thing went on.

I thinking that linen backing instead of buying a frame may just be a wonderful idea. That way I can linen back my posters hang them with tacks, maybe even buy fancy tacks, and I wouldn't have to buy a stupid frame for every size. Thanks Dennis!

So we are in the midst of some major house renovation/construction projects and I had to get tons of tubes the hell out of the basement. It took me a few days to just sort through stuff, looking in tubes, stacks of folded paper, and so on, to determine how best to temporarily store the bulk of my collection. Anyway, in rooting through some unmarked tubes, I came across this unreleased Struzan Pan's and got really pumped (slipped my mind that I even had it which is a tad bit sad), and was going to share it with you all...but in true Ed fashion, he is just faster than me. So I will just repost Ed's pic here. Haha.
Incredibly ironic, this unicorn of sorts almost being posted twice in this thread on the same day.
Great poster, Ed, congrats! It's one of the best, top 3 Struzan of all time, easily THE paper to own for this title.

An Italian 4F
Has a small (size of a pen lid) dark water stain in a light area (on the fold, knife pointing at it), but I guess I can try lightening it with pencils.
(http://www.mysterycorp.com/temp/P1060845_mod_800.jpg)
The seller also include this. Anyone know what it is? It is not as wide as the poster which I think is 57".
(http://www.mysterycorp.com/temp/P1060859_mod_600.jpg)
I paid US$10 for shipping but it was covered (odd in itself) with stamps of France nearly all showing value of 1,80+0,40 If I do my maths, face value of the stamps is around 42 Euro. Package was sent registered and is about 30cm x 45cm x 1cm
(http://www.mysterycorp.com/temp/P1060839_mod_700.jpg)

Place the yellow banner at the top of the Italian poster and you have a French poster. It was probably cheaper than to issue a French poster for this small release.

An excellent poster Steve, made even more interesting by the inclusion of that snipe.
Love anything like that happy1

Thanks guys. T, that makes sense. IMDB does state the name on the snipe as an alternate title for this movie. The seller didn't mention the snipe so I was wondering what it was when opening it up to see it.

I actually save packages like this. It's pretty cool with all the stamps from the other side of the world.

Theres 43 stamps, totalling about 84 Euro (not 42 as I previously mentioned). Makes no sense to me a package that small and also that I paid $US10 for shipping.

Steve, you should ask the seller about it!!!. He surely did not pay 84 euro, there must be another explanation

Hooray for daybills!

Love that Cape Fear... Much better than the US paper.

I was just saying to myself, "Wonder where Matt's at these days.."
Now I know...Raiders of the lost daybills.
Nice stash, man.

SHE is hot. Nice

Thanks guys. :)

Steve, you should ask the seller about it!!!. He surely did not pay 84 euro, there must be another explanation
Ok, I did and he said the denomination is in francs (currency before the Euro was introduced) and the stamps are still valid. Interesting
-
Hey Matt, Another Jollyfine batch of Daybills, Really like the "She" one, very nice. happy1

Very nice. If you don't mind me asking how much does one of those cost, as compared to the one sheet?
~ Juli

Juli, I don't know what Matt paid (or if he traded for it) but the last one I saw went for $600+ if I recall correctly...
-
Nice Daybills, esp the Invisible Boy!!
Dennis
-
Cheers Paul and Dennis. :)
Thanks Juli, I traded some mid range posters for the Psycho daybill and the shop price was over a $1000.
And for those that saw those 2 daybills sold on Ebay, this is one of them that I brought off the winning bidder.
The subsequent story of what was sold after the Ebay auction was a ripper apparently. A old Cinema basement was cleared out with boxes and boxes of posters. SHIT, the grin on this guys face was a mile wide and he wouldn't tell me what he got. :'(

The movie is called "Giant of the 20th Century" (1977). No freakin' idea what it is. I'm sure it sucks, but I love this ridiculous poster. It puts me in a good mood.

Speaking of kids -- SONS OF KATIE ELDER - I don't know how many times I watched this one growing up...one of my favorites. Katie had some outstanding boys. Great poster.

Not exactly a movie poster. I bought this painting (24"x30") and had it framed for my wife's birthday and absolutely love it!
I have not been able to find the artist yet - Has a title and #461 on back so he's/she's sold a few. Found it in an antique shop. But who cares its awesome...

Met with my monthly poster guy here in Houston; here is what I got today:
Been working on this one for 3 months; I made a standing offer to the seller and this month he bit. Yeah! This poster is rolled and has no creasing; a very nice investment quality piece.
(http://www.chubbycharlies.com/poster_gallery/mpf/001/images/0802-00.jpg)
Loved the eye graphic on this one so I grabbed it. I guess I need to make an eye gallery...

Picked up another City Heat when I realized that my existing one had a pinky sized hole in the word "City" that I had overlooked before. See cataloging your posters is a good way to make sure you got what you think you got...

Picked up Bounty to add to my Mel Gibson Stack....
(http://www.chubbycharlies.com/poster_gallery/mpf/001/images/0805-00.jpg)
I figured that only having one poster to contribute to the Milk thread was just poor play on my part; so when I saw this I grabbed it as well.

A lot of nice ones this month. I don't want to sound like I'm giving a speech at the Oscars so I'll leave it at that. :D
This one arrived a few days ago. A 40x60, not in perfect shape, but looks pretty darn good, especially for $10. For the record, I do not condone bootlegging or any other illegal activity, although I must say that one good thing that resulted from bootlegging was NASCAR and hot rodding in general!

Agree!...The wider cut has a little more of the original Peak art.
-
Is that a half sheet or a subway? Either way, very nice!
Its a half sheet; I needed this one to round out my hat trick. Have had the 1 sheets and insert for a while and started collecting other stuff. The art is awesome and this one is a bit wider as Zorba said. Its been on my want list for several years. Either I found it for the right price in poor condition or found the condition for a terribly hi price. When I made a standing offer the guy was trying to get $200 for it... I told him he was crazy and made him a standing last chance offer. It took three months for him to finally give in. Besides one wrinkle (no breaking) it is in fine condition rolled. Very proud to own it.

I haven't followed it in a long time. Meant to ask if the Lions were doing anything. When I was in Brisbane my girl "friend" got me hooked and we went to a few games. She even got tickets to the preliminary finals game at the Gabba, the year they won the Grand Final (2002?) ; sat behind the goal and tried to catch the balls (I've forgotten all the slang though). I really got into it...

This beaut just arrived today. Guess what format? ;D Fairly good condition. Overall I'm happy with it. Got it from CurlyKong (http://myworld.ebay.com/curlykong/?_trksid=p4340.l2559) on ebay, seems like a good dude. Great customer service. This is a big purchase for me, and I actually justified this by telling myself I would sell one of my possessions that has been collecting dust for years. One of the first things that came to mind was my wedding ring. Honestly, it took me a few days after the auction closed to realize the irony in selling my old wedding ring and the statement on the poster "the man...and the motion picture that simply do not conform." ;D

Mr. Tatum, yeah, it's a true classic.

Thanks, Wonka. I thought the price was good also, until I received it. It looks pretty darn good in the picture, but in person it has several issues. A lot of small holes, some tears - a few that are a couple inches long and "fixed" with tape that is not acid free, a fair amount of scuffs, some fairly serious creasing - several running almost the entire width of the paper, likely some water damage on the back (but no noticeable foxing on the front), an area that looks like a snipe was removed, and that area shows how much the color has changed on the paper throughout the rest of it, but I guess the color change is pretty normal for a poster that is 44+ years old. But overall, it looks good, and I will likely get it linen backed some day and permanently frame it.
Your second sentence had me cracking up. Sorry, bro. Good luck with what she will "let you frame up on the wall." Been there, done that with my EX. ;D

Yeah, CurlyKong/MajesticPosters has really good prices but I've received a couple of posters from him with moderate undisclosed issues. My Jaws 2 has a small but rather prominent white spot that was not disclosed. The lesson is always to request a larger picture before buying from him - or anybody else for that matter.
-
Let? Let? :'( This is very sad in deed.
;D
Whats this "let" thing?
Gratz Neo.
-
Good advice, Mel. I was expecting it to be nearly flawless as I'm used to Bruce's definition of "fine" (as it was described) but like you said, it's up to the buyer to determine what a seller means by his/her rating. Lesson learned for me. I contacted him right after it arrived and he said he would give me a partial refund so that was cool of him.
-
Nice poster, Neo.

Great poster Neo - it's one I intend to buy and frame one day when I have the £ and the space! A classic.

Bruce
I got a Taxi Driver 30x40 from you, Bruce (the first 30x40 I purchased actually - which was the beginning of my humble 30x40 addiction.. err.. collection) and it was in better condition than this one, and your rating was "good." It's nice to have a fairly detailed description of defects in something, rather than just a one to two word phrase (good, very good, etc.), as a description informs the buyer/potential buyers what to expect much better than a somewhat arbitrary "rating." You guys at emovieposter always do a good job with that, so it's one less thing to have to worry about when buying from y'all. If you say it looks like a "good to very good" according to your rating system, based on the picture, then that's a good confirmation that it is a nice one, IMO, as I'm not too worried about defects that can't be seen from a picture or by the good ole "six foot rule" (that some strippers abide by). As a matter of fact, I may just make it a rule in my abode that individuals may not get closer than 6 feet to the posters. ;D
-
My wife conceded and is letting me display my CHL, once we agree on a frame.

Ghost of Frankenstein (1942) military re-issue (from the 50s or 60s), seller's pic, supposedly C8 condition:
(http://i691.photobucket.com/albums/vv275/Forty_Candles/Screenshot2011-07-24at102400AM.jpg)
It's funny, this is not a common poster by any means but a linen-backed version from a different seller sold a few minutes after I bought mine (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=230648727211) (thanks to Rich, I'm avoiding LB posters when possible):
(http://i691.photobucket.com/albums/vv275/Forty_Candles/Screenshot2011-07-24at102406AM.jpg)
Of course, I'd prefer the original 1942 color one sheet but it hasn't been sold in 15 years (the last one I can find was Emovie's sale in 1995) and would many times more expensive than the B&W military re-release:
(http://i691.photobucket.com/albums/vv275/Forty_Candles/1442811020A.jpg)
Here is a very nice 1950rr, also far more expensive and rare:

Another little baby area of my poster confusion in that is what LAMP calls em here...http://www.learnaboutmovieposters.com/posters/db/sponsor.asp?Sponsor_ID=53
So which is it? 1P? Grande? or both? Thank you.

both, like half sheets are not really called half sheets but rather 22"x28"
In Australia at least on press material One sheets are called One sheeters. and old timers will call them that, just darn youngsters call them one sheets.

Amazing artwork on that one Steve. Quite beautiful.

The term "Grande" doesn't mean anything when used by itself. It is an adjective that means "large". You don't go to Coffee Bean and say "Give me a large!" A large what?
The generic word for poster in French is Affiche. A small Affiche is called Affichette (or petite affiche), a large one is called affiche (or grande affiche.) Not just Grande. I don't know who came up with this stupid terminology, but it is idiotic. 2-Foglio, 4-Foglio means 2 sheet, 4 sheet, Locandina means playbill, Kinoplakat means cinema poster... If you want to call it what it is, call it petite affiche or grande affiche, or one panel...

Got these two B2's today. My first Indiana Jones posters. Always loved the movies, just never bought the posters. I think one or both are re-release versions....
The first one is from the 1982 Re-Release. The second one is from the original 1981 release.

Everybody else is talking about the Camelot, and it is nice, but this Old man and the Sea is absolutely stunning. I'd hang that one in a heartbeat, no matter what else I had to take off the walls.
-
Thanks guys. The Quinn is the Italian L'Avventuriero aka The Rover in the US and its Peyrol the Buccaneer in French.
Im going to need a bigger frame cause I do plan on hanging the Quinn and Camelot in turns.
French 1Ps, Italian 2Fs, US 3sheets, German A0s can really be stunning. I know I am stating the obvious that most of you already know well but It was really cool looking at them last night laid out on the floor.

This may not look like much to you guys, but I had a set of 8 U.K. F.O.H. Stills for 7th Voyage, and the one below I had signed by Harryhausen the first time I met him.

Now I'm back to 8...... qip Arrived yesterday... woohoo
Oh, and I have since met Ray a couple of times, so have his signature on a couple of other items. Though if you come across this still Signed by him and dedicated to Paul... Do let me know.

C'mon guys, French poster ain't that big. I don't know, I must own close to 1,000 of them, and after a while, they look too small. Italian 4-Foglio are big. They cover an entire wall, which French posters don't do.
BTW, good job on those Avatar lobby cards. Along with a presumed German version (which I have yet to see), they are (to my knowledge) the only lobby cards on the title. And shiny to boot.

T
I agree with you T on your technical assessment of the terminology, and would love it if technically known sizes made simple sense to all, but it doesn't and I feel it is too ingrained to change. I prefer to call poster sizes what they are most commonly referred by the majority instead of fighting the system. I believe a French 63 x47 is most commonly referred to as a Grande (not 'Grande Affiche'). To me 1 Panel makes more sense - I agree.
'Grande Affiche' terminology use:
- Heritage refer to 'Grande Affiche' just twice on their site (http://www.google.com.au/search?num=100&hl=en&safe=off&biw=1218&bih=529&q=site%3Aha.com+%22grande+affiche%22&oq=site%3Aha.com+%22grande+affiche%22&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&gs_sm=e&gs_upl=4154l7655l0l7858l4l4l0l1l0l0l497l903l4-2l2l0).

- LAMP refer to 'Grande Affiche' no times on their site (http://www.google.com.au/search?num=100&hl=en&safe=off&biw=1218&bih=529&q=site%3Alearnaboutmovieposters.com+%22grande+affiche%22&oq=site%3Alearnaboutmovieposters.com+%22grande+affiche%22&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&gs_sm=e&gs_upl=641l13599l0l13833l27l27l0l21l0l0l591l2436l0.1.0.1.2.2l6l0).

- emovieposter refer to 'Grande Affiche' no times on their site (http://www.google.com.au/search?num=100&hl=en&safe=off&biw=1218&bih=529&q=site%3Aemovieposters.com+%22grande+affiche%22&oq=site%3Aemovieposters.com+%22grande+affiche%22&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&gs_sm=e&gs_upl=3613l4998l0l5462l8l8l0l0l0l2l254l567l1.0.2l3l0). 'Grande' is used 13 times (http://www.google.com.au/search?num=100&hl=en&safe=off&biw=1218&bih=529&q=site%3Aemovieposters.com+%22grande%22&oq=site%3Aemovieposters.com+%22grande%22&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&gs_sm=e&gs_upl=37285l38657l0l41641l6l6l0l0l0l0l985l3477l2-1.1.1.1.2l6l0). emovie does refer to them as a 1 panel in their database.
To me, putting 'Affiche' after 'Grande' I see little benefit for, as those who know what 'affiche' means would know the context is posters anyway. Those confused whether if talking posters, would be more confused what 'affiche' means, probably more confused if they thought maybe the context was posters, but now maybe affiches. It probably only serves to help the French understand what is being talked about! ;)

Steve, it's not because it's commonly used that it's right, or should not be changed.
LAMP, I'm not surprised, that site is archaic, which is why I never visit it (can't find anything there).
Heritage is wrong, period.
Bruce, well, at least he's smart enough to put both terminologies, Grande and 1-Panel.
Why is Heritage wrong? Let me give you an example. A few days ago, I bought this poster thinking that it was a 47x63in poster, commonly called in France a grande affiche (or just affiche). Turns out that Heritage has decided that a Grande is a large affiche, and an affiche is a small affiche. Whatever! Totally arbitrary, and totally wrong: Heritage! (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=200625516686)
Since I co-run with forum, it is my privilege to call on it and try to rectify it, if only for my own satisfaction.

I don't see the point in calling a Thierry hates "French Grande" a "Grande Affiche", when it simply translates to "Large Poster".
That would mean we should all start calling a US One Sheet a "One Sheet Poster".
Size: Grande = One Sheet
What it is: Affiche = Poster ... See my point?
Doesn't make sense.
We all know it is a poster at the end of the day.
-
Maybe its because the word Grande can be applied to anything large,but Affiche is exclusive to printed material?
By saying `Grande` on its own,only means for example.. I like your `Large`.

We have this Spanish 1-stop (printed in USA) for CAVEMAN with the Spanish title EL CAVERNICOLA ... it's in one piece measuring 40" x 76" overall (or should that be 76" x 40"), but photographed here in two sections ... presumably most of this artwork would also be by William Stout ... it's not specifically mentioned on his website, but there are a couple of other instances online which link his name with the poster ... can anyone confirm that's a correct credit, please?

Terry,
We at one time thought the color art from Caveman was by Stout, but then I was contacted by him (I knew him during my comic book days) and he assured me he did not do it! The black and white art is by famed New Yorker magazine illustrator William Steig.
When we auction the color style one-sheet, we add this to the auction: "Note that we do not know who did the artwork on this style of one-sheet from this movie (William Steig did the art for the black & white style). It LOOKS like it could be the work of William Stout, but Mr. Stout has assured us that it is not. If anyone knows more about the artwork on this poster, please e-mail us and we will post it here."
We have never received any additional information.

That is the downside of the Internet, and it is a giant minus. You CAN find just the answer to just about anything, but a tiny percentage of what you find is urban legend or completely wrong (even on trusted sites like imdb.com), and once it starts to spread, it is almost impossible to correct.
We need a snopes.com-like site for movie poster and movie mis-information!

No, they acknowledge that on their scale that a Mint 10 can have the most minimal amount of wear due to age. For fun, I just finished researching how many times they have used Mint to describe posters and lobby cards.
They have auctioned 143,941 items according to their current database. Of those items only 1,178 items have been graded as Mint. That correlates into a percentage of less than one percent or 0.008.
IMO, given out your highest rank less than one percent of the time is extremely acceptable.

Charlie,
Sorry about your Black Swan. I am still waiting on my BS advances from England and I have got my fingers crossed. Though in my limited experience, I have had no problem with German or Britain transactions. Maybe Turkey has a secret Al Qaeda cell stomping on poster deliveries to the United States.

Well guys you made me fell a bit better... Has anyone ever ironed a poster?

Never tried it. Short of linen-backing it, that poster looks hedged.
It's a damn shame.
Send the pics to the seller. Maybe he has a replacement.

Man, that was over the top funny. Obvisouly, your are the gif king. However, it was the tag line referring to Charlie as an "infidel" that was very clever.

Just got this yesterday, for the simple reason of the text on the bottom and that it's a 40x30. Little things like that mean a lot to a completist!?!

And jollynice as a whole, not just whats on the bottom. Edit:- meant Skyjackers poster, but Zorba pipped me to the post.
A jollyfine one from Louie also...
I picked this up Saturday, put off buying it for years as it wasn't quite the poster it should have been for one of my top 5 favourite Zombie films. Anyway I got it for a good price, and the frame was thrown in just for the crack...

And Guthrie is one of the best "lumbering" zombies out there, lets here it for Fernando clap.
Oh, and it's signed by the Director Jorge Garu, with lots of pics as provenance...

She is sweet.
Thanks Zorba! She ain't in great condition but it didn't cost me a fortune and I haven't seen another.

Where would that 30x40 have been used?

Technically, these were acquired in July, but given that the restoration was just completed I figured I would post them now. I bought both of these posters on eBay from a seller in Quebec. It is a damn trick finding original release HK paper on Bruce Lee's movies, but I've finally done it... and there was even an age-appropriate Quebec film censor stamp on the EtD poster to prove it (the blue sticker in the lower right corner). Here is what they looked like when I got them:

Amazing what a good restorer can do. Are you sure they're the same posters, Matt? Who did you go thru and what did it cost you, if you don't mind me asking.

LOL, they f@#king better be!
Just kidding of course, they are indeed the same posters... I can send you the XL images and you can see for yourself. I think the most noticable evidence of restoration is in the lower left of the EtD in the 'H' (from the 'GH'). Still, it looks like they did a bang up job...
I sent them to MPGrading for additional authentication and Todd Spoor (one of the founders) recommended his restorer... I forget his name, but he used to work at L'imagerie before going off on his own. Todd said he does a lot of HA's linen backing as well... and a very quick turn-around to boot.

Wow, those Bruce Lee posters look great. Unbelievable restoration job, and really cool art. Man, you have an eye for great posters.

As everyone has said...those look great Matt. If you can remember the restorer's name PM me with details?

Well that is three for three international fuck ups. Was expecting my Israeli stuff (Black Swan, The Fighter, Hereafter, Other Boleyn) to show up any day and when checking the tracking number this morning it said the USPS left a notice. I didn't get a notice! When I went to pick up they couldn't find it but would call me. I am thinking the USPS call me? No way! But for a change they were super nice. I left my cell and they actually called me twice to tell me the bad news... They informed me that they received an empty tube and recommended that they just return it undeliverable but wanted to know if I wanted the empty tube... Uh no I don't want an empty tube...
On the turkish front, I sent him the picks and he's sending me another one. thumbup
Sorries for partially hijacking the thread; but my new acquisitions aren't arriving....
-
Well, that sucks, dude. If it makes you feel better (not that it would), I got a bus stop poster yesterday sent from France in a square tube three times too big. The poster was wrapped, but the tube got smashed. Not blaming the postal service, there was no way it wouldn't get smashed.
Some sellers are absolute morons.

Yeah what is with just sticking the poster rolled up in the tube? At least roll it and put it in a sleeve.... give it some room to adjust... morons!

Of course, these three had to be in my collection for obvious reasons. "Honk if you love Brian" what a classic tag line. ;D

Well... the search continues, but I've decided for now to settle for this...
(http://img835.imageshack.us/img835/7233/zz2fd41fd6550x814.jpg)
StarWarsShop has resurrected Ohrai’s masterpiece illustration in a rich, colorful one-sheet size poster limited to just 500 pieces, a number which is sure to drive desirability once the edition has sold out. Even collectors who own an original release poster exhibiting Ohrai’s Empire artwork will want to pick this one up, as it captures the color and clarity of the artist’s original artwork better than any poster we’ve seen — even the 1980 originals!
The large, high-res source transparency has allowed them to print this one-sheet size poster with color and clarity true to the original, with quality superior to the U.S. posters printed back in 1980. StarWarsShop has opted to reproduce this rare U.S. version of the artwork complete with English title, a first for this “snow” version of Ohrai’s Empire artwork (incidentally, we’ve also added Ohrai’s painted signature back into the illustration, which had been dropped from the U.S. originals).
Thanks to Mel for pointing the auction out to me. The poster came today and it really is very beautiful. It's sad though, because I was presented with an opportunity to buy my true poster for $800. I almost bought it, but there's no indication that the poster is worth or would sell anywhere near that much money (except CineMasterpieces, but that's a whole different clientele). So I passed, dropped $20, and this will have to do for now.
-
I've been procrastinating on this one, because I own the Japanese B1 and US Spanish of the same design...
(http://eatbrie.com/movie_posters_files/Starwarsempirestrikesback16.jpg)(http://eatbrie.com/movie_posters_files/Starwarsempirestrikesback10.jpg)
and couldn't care less about English titles or not...
...but as a completist, I decided to look for one a few weeks ago. I'm now very close to getting one... probably in the next few days, if the price sticks.
Strangely enough, I actually once owned two of the Australian versions a few years ago, and destroyed them because they were not perfect. Yes, I like my posters to be perfect (at least the new ones).

Grats Anthony on getting the ESB poster. I wouldnt think of it as settling but more as getting an image you like to add to the other images you like.
The other will come around. We are young( Im only in my 40s) and have plenty of time to get any poster. ;D

Yup.
I've always been prepared to spend 2.5x the highest recorded price in recorded auction history. But that's only a little more than half what one guy was asking.
I just don't have that kind of money, and the poster has never been worth that much, it normally "goes" for $200 to $300. Hearing about them being destroyed or coming across ones that have been dry-mounted kills me.

Be persistent, and (IMHO) usually the amount of time spent waiting on getting a good one at a good price will be proportionate to the coolness of it. "May the force be with you."

This is for a sub-category I have been persistent about, and FINALLY SCORED ONE! YESSSSSS! ;D I've never seen one in this format (2 feet x 6 feet) but it looks like a completely legit original, and it's in almost mint condition, AND I got a great price on it! WINNING! :D My favorite mermaid movie and I can't imagine a mermaid portrayed by someone much better than Daryl Hannah. Persistence, padawans, persistence.

I don't know where you're getting your stats, but I honestly don't think it goes for so little money anymore. Maybe 3 or 4 years ago, when it kept popping up on a regular basis, but now that it doesn't, I think $400 to $600 has become the norm.

I'm just going by the eMovie/Heritage auction history. The last one was February 2010 for 181.00. And the supposedly John Williams signed one wouldnt even sell on eBay with a 99 cent starting bid.
If I'm wrong please do correct me. I'll have to adjust my offers accordingly.
-
What shape was the one that sold in 2010? As far as the John Williams signed one goes, I'm not surprised. A lot of collectors will not touch a signed poster. I would only buy a signed poster if it was worth linenbacking it and if I could remove the signature.

If memory serves it was "very good" according to eMovie. And I wasn't surprised by the signed one either, I mean, I didn't even bid. I would rather have a 500 limited reprint than a real one with a scribble on it.

Value in terms of dollars not much. I have the person's packing note that it was supposed to go to, so I figure they have my goods. Just inconvenient, but human error is human error, so I'll just take a Doris Day moment and worry about it later.

Not a bad idea for the fish thread. Funny you should mention that because I was thinking how it is good to have specific topics some times. Like the Scarface thread I started, since it has about 1,100 views and I would bet that a lot of guests have checked it out, where they probably would not have seen it had it been in a general topic such as "latest acquisitions."
And yeah, that was me who won the Piranha Part Two: The Spawning. Gotta thank Sir Chop-A-Lot for that one also, since he mentioned it when I added a pic for the quad of Piranha 3D in the "booty" thread. When I saw the older school art that was similar (but superior IMHO) to the quad for Piranha 3D, and in the one sheet format to boot, it was instantaneously added to my "want list." So double kudos for Sir Chop-Top. thumbup

I was the underbidder to Holiday on a different version of Stargate B1 a month or so ago. So I was like crap when will one of those come up again? These are both B1 versions that I don't think he has.... Not sure if he was bidding on the Stargate for the Stargate or just that is was a nice B1...
Yeah the Braveheart was a surprise so I gobbled it up. And they finally made it in one piece! woohoo
Oh just an FYI; I was told by the USPS yesterday that you have to accept and refuse delivery before they enter a "delivered without contents" lucky I called because it would have just been a Return to sender. They let me snap some picks so I could try to get my money back...

This just rolled up to the front door, courtesy of Mr. Bruce Hershenson (emovieposter.com).
I don't buy many posters these days, what with hyper-inflation...but I did fall on my face for this country of origin masterpiece by Renato Casaro.
I am embarrassed to say how little I spent...let's just say the paper cost less than the postage.
Normally, I don't take to monochromatic posters, but this one is different.

The other cards have been requested from the Little Shop portion of the lot I purchased, and I'll upload those shortly, as far as what I own in general? Far too much lol. I've got a lot but it's horribly disorganized which was was disorganized by a combination of two moves and a divorce within the last year, been a while ride and I'm glad to be getting back into posters. A hobby I've always loved and I'm glad to get back into.

We're all disorganised, it's part of the poster collectors way of life. Except for Eatbrie, he's the most organised fellow on here, or maybe anywhere...

Could that be because you don't use the terms "very fine" or "near mint"?
It would be like saying my grading scale goes from "poor" to "good", so my "good" equates to "near mint" for most people (or "fine" on the emovieposter scale).

$1100?!?! Mario charged $130. All in it was just over $200 including the poster. The artwork was actually in great condition. The before photos looked much worse than in person... mainly just lots of yellow tape around the border (which admittedly looks scary) and some heavy folds.
Crap... The Way of the Dragon is an R75? Do you have an image of the original? Is it the same artwork with different printers info? How can you tell the difference? Thanks Tang.

Holy half sheets! :o Heck of a batch, Chris. Geez Louise, you weren't joking about a lot of pictures. I tried to click "post" twice and each time there was a new quartet. 8)
Thanks Neo! These are actually all Title Lobby Cards (but the confusion is understandable given that they usually have the same image as a 1/2 sheet).

Nice cards Chris!

Nice cards Chris!
Thanks man. I shared the Egypt poster in the advertising thread...
Edit: Now I see you beat me there! ;)

Crikey, you have been a busy boy Chris. Love Screaming Mimi, Southside, Nightmare and Raging Tide. :)

Yowza Chris!
The WWI war bond paper is fantastic, the two Terror posters are sweet, the cards are great and Anita Ekberg is well thumbup

Exceedingly good Chris, have you won the Lotto.... thumbup

As I'm officially old today (it's my 50th) these two posters cost me nothing, as they were presents from Yvonne. ;D
This is the 1957 U.K. re-release, I've never seen this one before, the original release seems much more common.
(http://i590.photobucket.com/albums/ss348/frankenstein31_photos/PICT0294-1.jpg)
And you can't go wrong with a Quad like this...

Thanks for the good wishes Guys. I almost bid on the Thing poster myself, which wouldn't of been the thing too do... :-\
I think you are too modest Chris, you have posted some Amazing pieces.

It has just arrived! http://movieposters.ha.com/c/item.zx?saleNo=161125&lotNo=50387
But the problem is I didn't bid for it (nor would I have).
In the interests of balanced reporting...it seems it is mistake month (and everyone does make mistakes), here's what I bought last month that were put on 'Pay & Hold' except I specifically said to send them.
Oh well, another que sera sera moment.
So, here's what I went and bought....:
I bought this one for my daughter (who has the same name)
http://www.emovieposter.com/gallery/inc/large_size.php?lot=2y078
I bought these because I am going through a Best Picture movie poster buying binge at the moment
http://www.emovieposter.com/gallery/inc/large_size.php?lot=2y209
http://www.emovieposter.com/gallery/inc/large_size.php?lot=2y248

http://www.emovieposter.com/gallery/inc/large_size.php?lot=2z301
http://www.emovieposter.com/gallery/inc/large_size.php?lot=2z620
http://www.emovieposter.com/gallery/inc/large_size.php?lot=2z775
I bought this one because I love animation movies and it was the first picture I saw as a child
http://www.emovieposter.com/gallery/inc/large_size.php?lot=2z393
I bought this one because my wife knows her...and well, look at it, it's a hot picture.
http://www.emovieposter.com/gallery/inc/large_size.php?lot=2z708
I bought these next two one because I was born in NZ, they're both NZ movies and they are both quite collectible poster in this part of the world.
http://www.emovieposter.com/gallery/inc/large_size.php?lot=2z573
http://www.emovieposter.com/gallery/inc/large_size.php?lot=2z589
The second one is where NZ raised Anna Paquin won best supporting actress and launched her career (at the age of 11).
-
It is comforting that I am not the only binge buyer. David, last week I bought 19 seperate lots, and now my official hiatus has kicked in. I am thinking though, it might only apply to US 1 sheets..... ;D
However, I am on a frame buying binge. Placed an order with HP for ten 27x41 frames today. I was really impressed with her non-glare plexi on my last order, so I am officially hooked now.

I agree Ted it is a great poster and of course thanks for your comments!
By the way my favourite is The Lodger...such a great image and an original release too...

Love the First Men In the Moon, Paul. Great subterranean artwork... wanna sell it? ;)

Haven't been on the forums lately as I've been real busy, but this popped in today and I figured I'd post it.

It's sad, just when I say to myself 'that will do - hiatus!' my eyes glaze over when I see one, I melt and go "ohhhh, pretty" and so what do you know...I buy it and then I don't stop with one 'cause I got to keep the freight down and then when it is all over I say to myself 'that will do - hiatus...!'
"ohhh prettty"

That is good to hear cause I am only five years younger.
I have heard life begins at 50. You have had a day and a half there now, is that true or should I panic? :P
Hard to post acquisitions after looking at what Chris and Paul put up but I am bored and what the hell. We all have our place. Some of the highlights or low lights and these from emovie as I have not taken any pics of any ebay stuff for a while.
My first Ex-Yugo poster. Casaro was key. Bullet For Rommell.

It's great Zorba, I'm Closer to not having to work any more ;D, the older I get the more free cash I have that the kids don't get hold of ;). The only down side is your joints ache that little bit more... :-\ but it all works out, as instead of doing Martial Arts, I now collect more posters. So the joints not such a problem. :)

Some great posters so far this month. And we're only the 10th. Can't wait to see what the next 20 days bring you guys.

Hehe - yeah, though business (lingerie). Although she already has a signed (lingerie) pic that we got framed many years ago, I am almost embarrassed to say we have it in the powder room. Still, if she ever comes over we will remove it!

He really captures Palance on this poster.
Nice catches, all.

Agree, cool poster Josh - I want to buy it from Dale, but am just calculating if I have enough money or not this month.
If you see it, prepare yourself! It's very dark. It's a bit too daft to be a real classic, but it's certainly an interesting watch. Korean's sure seem to like their vengeance films!

Love these FOH cards, almost total lack of dead cards is incredible. I also like the alternative title, though I would likely overlook them not recognizing it.

Would anyone of you have a pic of the UK quad? Paul maybe?
I am interested what it looks like.

A good friend in Spain tracked down these two posters from the two-part movie, LA HERENCIA VALDEMAR, a creepy tribute to the works of HP Lovecraft.
Released over the last two years, these films also feature the last performance of horror-film star Paul Naschy, who made a living playing monsters.
While I have yet to see either film, I was struck by the atmospheric look of these posters and had to have them.
While these pics are borrowed from the net, both of these one sheets are rolled and in near mint condition.
For those interested in the movies, I have also added the trailers...

Sure are atmospheric Ted, nice ones.

Awesome stuff this month, as I have come to expect from this group. The diversity of our collecting habits is one of the greatest strengths here, I think. My favorite of the bunch is the Thing From Another World quad from Paul I think. The consistency with which he comes up with amazing quads mystifies me. As for me, here is my addition. It might be the only one for the month as I am still in the midst of a move.

Sometimes you do have to restore. This one is worth it. At least a good cleaning and linenbacking, although I'd probably take it all the way.
I expect though, that you paid enough that the expenses of a full restoration are more than the value. Economically, makes more sense to let it sit. I suspect poster restoration is like car restoration where you spend considerably more doing it than you get back on resale. Usually the best bet is to buy the one that has already been restored.
-
Thanks guys. As I mentioned on NS4 I am starting a "Save Rita" campaign - feel free to forward your generous donations for this worthy cause! ;D

I am too busy organizing manatees and other wild things.
But AFFAIR IN TRINIDAD...
Chris, RESTO, RESTO, RESTO-PALOOZA...
What a poster!
Do we have a consensus? ;)
-
Do we have a consensus? ;)
You don't need no stinkin' consensus...it's poster goddess RITA in one of her finest appearances!
Whatta u waitin' fer? It should already be in Dario's hands!
Ship it to me. I'll take care of it. You might never get it back, but I'll send you some pictures. wynk
-
Great stuff Paul, Chris and Schan.
Chris. Im joining the mob. Resto Rita!
-
Really like THE GODFATHER, Schan.
That is one of the coolest pieces I have seen for that -- or any -- movie.
Congratulations!
-
Great poster, Chris, but the restoration costs for that poster probably exceed its value - usually goes for US$400.

-
Sorry Chris, but the restoration costs for that poster greatly exceed its value.
(http://i691.photobucket.com/albums/vv275/Forty_Candles/Affair.jpg)
That depends on what he paid for it now, doesn't it? Also, if he is just displaying it for himself he may not be as worried about resale value.
-
Extensive restoration will lower the resale value:

Correct. And for the record I paid what amounts to a pittance. I am not all that worried about resale value as I do plan on keeping it and enjoying it for now.
Mel, I of course knew the last few sales results before buying this one. I think I am more curious about seeing what magic a reputable restorer can do (within a reasonable $$$). Yes, I know I could have theoretically just waited and bought one in the $400 range (if one came up) but what's the fun in that?
Thanks for all the comments guys...

Nice run of paper, Dans shipping prices rub me the wrong way so I dont bid anymore. If I would only win one poster I would expect him to drive the poster down to IA for what he charges.
-
Gotta love Blade Runner and Apocalypse now. Was there a Cujo remake because that poster looks more modern. Either way it's cool.
-

$25 is stiff, especially when people like Bruce ship for practically nothing. However, I think Dan uses it to kind of force people into multiple purchases. Of course for a newbie, it was easy for me to find stuff. Dan did honor his commitment to ship all posters for a flat 25. And in my case, that ended up being 17 posters, so it was fair.

The Italians Have Invaded!!!! Got my package from Italy today.
For all you Lebowski Fans. Are you ready to drool?
I scored a Foglio, 2 Fogli, and Locandina...

You have to get these. I didn't realize how big the guys were. I thought they were going to be little 11x14 or lobby card size. These are posters man! Plus they capture the essence of the film. The two of Jesus are classic... The one was water damaged but you hardly notice. Sometime the poster image is all you need.

Just measured: 18 x 26. Anyone know how many there usually are in a set of photobustas? I assumed I have all of them...

Hey, at least I have slowed down and I needed a non-guy poster for the office. I framed four posters last night. I hope to have 22 framed by the weekend so I can start hanging. ;D

Photobusta sets usually range from 6 to 12 cards for a film. I think your assumption is correct though about having all the cards in the Lebowski set.

Eyes of Tammy Faye :'(

I Robot - very mixed feelings about this movie - it was generally true to the spirit of the books but the "Will Smith kicking robot ass" scenes blew it....

$25 is stiff, especially when people like Bruce ship for practically nothing.
Not if you live in Sydney. I have to figure on somewhere between $50-$100 to ship down under (no matter from whom I buy), so I always try to buy in volume or use the 'buy and hold' option which Bruce and Heritage offer (and is much appreciated).

This beast just arrived. Got if from plata.negra (http://myworld.ebay.com/plata.negra/&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2754) on Ebay, a really good dude to buy from, and I think he has a few other Star Wars bus shelters possibly for sale. I've been looking for one of these for a couple years, so I'm definitely stoked to finally score one. Between my scores of ultra rare pieces and the winners of Nascar races the last few months, it seems like this has been an epic time for "Cinderella stories." ;D
U.K. bus shelter, DS, and in C9 condition. My best Star Wars poster to date, and IMO one the best for any of the movies.

Havent got it in my hands, and as I am moving soon, I wont for a while, but my holy grail of posters (apart from if someone one day discovers a mary celeste daybill exists) . SO VERY happy camper here. Thanks to a very special friend for helping out. Something I seriously have gone to sleep thinking about. Must be the rarest hammer daybill (at least its the only one Ive only ever seen one copy of) , the 5th Hammer film ever made and the oldest Hammer daybill I've heard of. (and I cant find the right calculator but I think it comes to 1938)

Two difficult posters to locate.
Nice one Neo that don't come around very often. Though the colour names printed on the poster is quite common on U.K. Bus-stop posters.
Song of Freedom, what can I say, it's gone to the right home. Great find Ari... clap

One of the things I like best about 'movie poster forums' is seeing something new -- not just paper, but the film represented.
This post by Ves caught my attention and I hunted down the trailer.
I trust her judgment and after seeing the trailer, I have to find the movie.

Great poster Mel. I actually bidded on that somewhere this month. I believe I saw it up for auction twice this month. My tastes must be getting better because I bought this daybill earlier in the month from Bruce.

We need to start a thread for "posters you just found" or "posters you forgot you had". This is actually a poster I made when at Texas A&M. I was advertising chair or something... The best part was when he signed it, he told me he really liked the design, and asked if I thought about doing advertising and movie posters. Since I was a geeky engineer, I said "I wish" and left it at that...
Now that I look back on it, stuff isn't centered, and I misspelled February. My jerk roommate pointed that one out. However, I don't forget how to spell it now, and when I go to spell it, I think about this poster every time... Thanks Mr. Rodriquez, you taught me how to spell February!!! Anyway, just one of my favorite things I thought I would share...

RR is one of my favorite filmmakers.
I remember you saying once how they are people just like us.
We got to hang back stage with him towards the end of the movie, as he was going to then answer questions about the film. And he was telling us stories about El Mariachi. Wish I could remember them. It a picturesque setting. We were near all the ropes and electrical panels off stage, under a single low light, and there was Robert Rodriguez whispering things about the last few scenes.... And he was into his movies man... Fame didn't go to his head; he was passionate. He was also very down to earth...

That Bonnie Scotland is amazing! It sure looks like Hirschfeld art. Is it the post-war size?

It's a long daybill Bruce.

With my lack of experience, I cannot speak as to prices in general. I do know from research that the EFNY advance normally sells around 225 and I got it for 185. Heritage sold one for like 400 folded at the July sig. So I feel good about my big purchase of the evening.

There are always a lot of "winners" at eMoviePoster.com auctions, because you are bidding against real bidders, and when something "falls through the cracks" some lucky collector gets it (in many auctions a low "selling price" just means it is headed back to the consignor).
I have a feeling Thierry was looking at the items that sold low, and there were quite a few good deals, especially among the kind of items that get auctioned over and over (which is the entire "Thierry" philosophy, to wait until you get a poster at the price you want to pay.
But the items that sold for the most last night almost all went for more than they have in the past, so I know there were quite a few happy consignors as well:

Bruce, my "philosophy" is to pay as little as possible. What I won last night does not get auctioned over and over, it is just not in high demand. Carpenter's Dark Star (auctioned 4 times since 2007), Godard's A Married Woman (auctioned twice since 2007)... are not necessarily posters people are fighting over. I get that. Which is why the price was right for me. Generally speaking though, it seemed that this last sale was a little lower than in the past, which makes sense considering the period of the year.

Well I got the forth one (the red one). The guy had it and I persuaded him to send it to me $$$... Whew, I feel like a champion having a let down after winning a game. What the fuck do I do now?
Four to six more Black Swans (all the same international image, just different languages) and I should pretty much have them all. Minus the 2 Japanese B1s I just don't feel like dropping $600 on.. They will come around again for less, I am sure...
Guess I could try to find Dish's Australian ESB....

No offense, Charlie, but you need to expand your horizons a bit.

I like the new interface for your black swan gallery. It's very scroll wheel friendly. Good job.
Hopefully the guy you bought the red black swan one sheet from will auction the other 2 posters that he has left over.
-
That gallery effect is great, Charlie! I agree with Rainman that it's very scroll wheel friendly.
Oh and nice collection of Black Swans! I seem to have about 5 posters for the film, I think my two faves are the regular US one sheet and the La Boca Quad (1 of 3).
-
Agree on both counts. Great Black Swan gallery! and it does scroll nice.
-
Great improvement on the gallery. I hated the old version (but didn't want to be negative) and love this new one!

I should have a spare Black Swan B1 here any day now, will not be cheap, but wont be $600 either.

Boy that Alien looks great!!!!!!!!! It almost looks rolled. I guess it was tri-folded? I have one of those but I am just not motivated to get the rest of the series. I think for some series like Alien and Indiana Jones, a nice 1sht of the 1st movie is enough to satisfy me. I think... eyeroll

Don't hold your breathe. Unfortunately, when the well dries up on new release Japanese B1's they are usually gone. When they show up, they usually command more, unless you're lucky. Thierry will disagree, but my strong advice is if you really want them in your collection, you need to be prepared to buy them for whatever the next time they come up. Both versions cost me some dough, but I am damned happy to have them buttoned up. And that blue B1 is more rare than the black and white one, though the b&w is a better looking poster.

A good friend in Spain tracked down these two posters from the two-part movie, LA HERENCIA VALDEMAR, a creepy tribute to the works of HP Lovecraft.
Released over the last two years, these films also feature the last performance of horror-film star Paul Naschy, who made a living playing monsters.
While I have yet to see either film, I was struck by the atmospheric look of these posters and had to have them.
While these pics are borrowed from the net, both of these one sheets are rolled and in near mint condition.
For those interested in the movies, I have also added the trailers...

Oh yeah, forgot to mention I stupidly lost the Fantastic Voyage unopened parcel somewhere during the day. I was horrified to realize I lost it, then went back thru the stores I visited and found it in an internet cafe (I use it sometimes when I need a printout). Don't know how it got from the cubical I was at to behind the service desk with staff. Cant believe I misplaced it... I was carrying many other things that day though, laptop, coat, printouts...

Ah you got Red Dog poster. Did you see the movie? I liked the cinematography (the outback scenery)
-
Not yet Steve, good film was it?
-
I loved the scenery, I think the dogs acting ability was rather overrated in reviews I read and heard, I guess I was hoping for more from the dog, but the scenery was stunning. I went opening night, in a multiplex cinema, and I was the only one in to see it, except 2 couples who walked in last minute, one laughing, saying, is this it?
-
This beast arrived yesterday. When I had the B1 in a frame, a couple guys from Brighthouse came over to install my high speed internet and one of 'em was like "that's the blue guy who was naked, right?" Me: "umm...yeah, now that you mention it I vaguely remember that part of the movie." :-\ The other guy: "of all the parts in the movie, that's the one you mention, man sometimes you scare me!" laugh1

Not to sound like a troll (although it probably will sound like that to some) it appears that I got a slightly trimmed printer's proof! ;D The color bars are on the upper left edge, and go about half way down the left edge (probably just a bad chop). I'm not saying that the ones with the full color bar are or are not printer's proofs, since that is a highly debated topic, this is just the first poster in my humble collection that has even part of the color bar.

Ah! Herman Cohen, who produced Berserk, I Was a Teenage Werewolf, and tons of other B flicks, was a very good friend of mine when I first moved to the US. He passed away many years ago, but your poster reminded me of him. He told me so many classic Hollywood stories...

-
I know it's technically not September until tomorrow, but I have a handful of acquisitions I want to post and August is quickly going out of fashion. Plus, I haven't started one of these threads before (maybe I'm not supposed to) and want to seize an opportunity to feel cool.
Firstly, I have two lobby cards from the original releases of Snow White and Pinocchio. They're from 1937 and 1940 respectively and are UK lobbies. Which means they survived WWII - which to me makes them feel very special. I only have one card from each set, but quite frankly I couldn't ask for more, because having such rare paper on such old movies is more than I ever planned to have this early in my collecting.
The camera exaggerates the damage, especially on Pinocchio. They stains are far less intrusive than they appear.
(http://img833.imageshack.us/img833/1995/s7303241.jpg) (http://img651.imageshack.us/img651/7171/s7303251.jpg)
Next up I have a poster I only just learned existed and had-to-have as soon as I saw it. I'm sure many of you remember it from the Post-Auction Analysis on Rich's auctions. While I lost that initial auction, it was just my luck that I happened upon another. I was offered some more common Australian variants of the poster (same artwork, different layout) but ultimately opted for the more scarce US International. I've always loved the movie, but hated the poster, so to have something appealing on Monsters, Inc is extremely satisfying.
(http://img834.imageshack.us/img834/6082/miiw.jpg)
While I don't particularly care for the "lamp" version, I also picked up an International set for Aladdin. I already have the American version of the lamp, but I do like the "carpet" version, and I had to buy them as a set. Aladdin are especially interesting to me, because some of them obey Robin Williams' contract specifications and some don't, and the ones that do are always superior. You have to wonder why J. Katz found is so necessary to slam the Genie in people's faces.
(http://img535.imageshack.us/img535/1509/screenshot007ti.png)
And finally, I picked up some B2s for my least and my most favorite Satoshi Kon movies (Paprika and Tokyo Godfathers respectively). Satoshi Kon only made four movies before he died, all four of which are fantastic exercises in animation, and paper on them is largely difficult to find (at least for me). I have a stack of chirashis I consider place holders, but suddenly two of his four movies popped up and I had to have them. Another important acquisition to my collection.

(http://www.abideposters.com/apf_junk/DSCN9993.JPG)
Matrix 2 Fogli

Matrix Reloaded 2 Fogli and 4 Fogli
(http://www.abideposters.com/apf_junk/DSCN9973.JPG)
Bought a few that I might sell (I may fall in love with them) and perhaps cover shipping costs 35 euros; "ouch"
Clockwork Orange 4 Fogli
(http://www.abideposters.com/apf_junk/DSCN9988.JPG)
Higlander Foglio (never seen this one)
(http://www.abideposters.com/apf_junk/DSCN9986.JPG)
And two more Big Lebowski 2 Fogli

Actually, I'm twenty. But I bathe in the blood of beautiful virgins to loosen the ever clinching clip of death. This works to my advantage, because by looking fourteen it's easier to convince beautiful women to babysit me.

Nice vintage lobbies Anthony!

this is funny.. for some reason I was missing 2 cards from this set. so I was commiserating on it one night, and the next morning I had done all my ebay checking and stuff and just before I turned off the computer to come to the warehouse, I decided to check it one more time to see what people listed and some listed a group of 2 lobby cards from this set. I looked at my checklist.. THESE WERE THE 2 CARDS I NEEDED.
it was aBIN.. the listing wasn't up for a total of 4 minutes.

I can't go there. Too many Republicans. I could see Bush or Perry walking down the street and would be arrested for spitting on them.

Three examples of the quirky and unusual which came our way this week ...
... I think this must be some sort of commercial piece ... 30" x 39" ... doesn't really 'feel' like a cinema-used item ... the featured images point to 1973 ... any ideas where it originated ... ?
(http://www.quadbod.co.uk/webimages/1973montage11054ls.JPG)
... this isn't very pretty, but it's pretty unusual ... by the wording, probably promoting CARRY ON GIRLS which makes it the same year as item one ... 1973 ... 93" long x 18" wide ...
(http://www.quadbod.co.uk/webimages/rankbanner11053.JPG)
... and finally, combining quirky with Disney ... where's Paul W? ...
(http://www.quadbod.co.uk/webimages/robinhooddcpromo11055ls.JPG)
... I'd guess this isn't actually the free poster itself, but maybe a poster advertising the free posters ... does that make sense? It's a double-crown 30" x 20". Any reference to this in the original campaign material ... ?
Best wishes,
Terry - www.quadbod.co.uk

Hello Terry, that collage poster maybe 76 onwards as Way of the Dragon wasn't released until 75 in this country, and the Belstone fox was 1976....
Nice posters...... I think we need to talk. ;)
-
Hello Terry, that collage poster maybe 76 onwards as Way of the Dragon wasn't released until 75 in this country, and the Belstone Fox was 1976....
Hi, Paul!
I'm sticking with 1973 - I think you're mistaken on THE BELSTONE FOX date - and WAY OF THE DRAGON is also a 1973 production - so if the UK release date was later, maybe that just means the poster wasn't of UK origin ... ?
Terry
-
Terry, The first of Bruce's films to be released in this country was Enter the Dragon which was getting on for late 1973. Due to the success of it his other films, not meant for international distribution. Were released after Enter had run for several weeks, and "Way of" was, and I was a bit out released in 1974. The art of Bruce on your collage is most definitely from the Quad.
(http://i590.photobucket.com/albums/ss348/frankenstein31_photos/PICT0149-1.jpg)
You are quite right on the Belstone fox it was 73. I don't think the poster is international, as most of the images are from Quads. So I'm going with 1974/5 on the date, as I haven't had the time to check the other images.
-
The majority of the images are from '73 (a few '74) releases.
This could make an excellent quiz to see how many titles we could name!
-
... we'll settle for 1974, then ... !
Thanks!
Terry

I wish it was as easy to meet in the middle when haggling with a dealer.... ;)
Anyway, this arrived today. I know, not a poster, but it was the only issue I needed to complete my set of Famous Monsters. time has ticked on, but I now have the full set...Good times. :) Angelo will know why I'm happy about it, he's a comic guy...

I'd almost given up with back issues myself, but had to get this as the price was reasonable for the condition. I may have to get a couple of other issues I'm missing from other sets.... eyeroll

Yep. that Bluebeard, has a couple of nicks, but it's the first time I've seen a Quad for this film. So it must be quite obscure....

I tracked down the King Kong you bought on UK Ebay (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/KING-KONG-POSTER-27X41-RE-/170685281536?pt=UK_DVD_Film_TV_Film_Memorabilia_LE&hash=item27bda2b500)but the posting does not give any details.
So spill the beans, Paulie....
(http://i691.photobucket.com/albums/vv275/Forty_Candles/Screenshot2011-09-03at93330PM.jpg)
-
Paul, if it's an American poster, it's a reproduction of some kind.
-
So right Rich, and Mel, I do take my hat off to you, you are some Detective. All I know is it's a repro from the U.S. it measures 41x27. it isn't a bad copy, close up it is so easy to tell, but from a few feet away it looks great.
I bought it for my film room, as I will never be able to afford an Original Kong Poster; And as the 33 kong is up there on my favourite films list, I had to have something close to it, and for a tenner, I think it was reasonable (first repo I've ever bought).
If you know anymore than that, I would be glad to know. Well done Mel, No wonder you are such an asset to the forum... clap
-
So right Rich, and Mel, I do take my hat off to you,
That was nothing - just a quick search of the completed listings on UK Ebay. The real mystery is why it is folded and a full size 27x41. You can find 27x40 repros of this poster on Ebay. (http://www.ebay.com/itm/KING-KONG-1933-Fay-Wray-CLASSIC-MOVIE-POSTER-/370505425454?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item5643d8222e)
-
It quite surprised me too, which is why I thought it would be good to let it run a bit, there is no info on it, and the name of the film is written on the back just like a real poster!!!! Maybe someone folded it, though they do look like printers Machine folds... It is a mystery, but I have no doubts it's a repro.
-
yes the folding + 27x41 is the puzzling aspect of it. I'm not familiar with any reproduction or commercial posters ever sold folded, excepting Star wars bootlegs of course.
now there are posters that were inserted into things like special edition VHS sets back then. I wonder if that comes from that great VHS big box that came with all kinds of goodies maybe 15 years ago

Withdrawing into my newbie cave...... eyeroll I did not realize there was fine print at the bottom of said poster. Well, at least I have learned how to hang posters. I am off to hang (10) 27 x 40. That will put me up to 20 framed posters in my office. And yes, before Mel chastises me, I do plan to post pictures when I am done. No Preview for you. ;D

Are the Moviegoods posters folded?
I will go and check the exact size, back in a mo...
-
I'm Back, It measures 39 3/4"x 26 3/4", So Ni on 40x27. The writing on the back says "King Kong 88 RE" ?? The folds appear to be Machine folds, as they are pin sharp and very accurately done. Does Moviegoods fold theirs for shipping?

No, they send everything rolled, except for a few folded originals (probably obtained from the liquidation of one of the Canadian NSS branch offices years ago).
How blurry is the text and logo?

-
It's almost surely a Moviegoods repro that someone folded.
The original is the 1938 reissue. It is best known as the Portal image, but I know one of the two or three people who have an actual 1938 reissue one-sheet (it is far more rare than the 1933 paper)!

Maybe I can help clear up some of the confusion regarding this great piece of repro art....
(http://www.moviegoods.com//Assets/product_images/1020/194273.1020.A.jpg)
I would've posted sooner (and saved some of you some head-scratching), but I am using a temporary wireless at my new digs and connectivity is spotty (to say the least)...anyways...
In 1988, Turner purchased the RKO library and also released a colorized version of KONG. To promote this HUGE event in Turner history, they released slightly undersized repros of this design. They were shipped rolled to the general public, but the press corps (which I was a part of) received lower quality, machine-folded versions tucked into over-sized flat press packs. I know this because I received a few of these same posters. I immediately called my Turner contact and requested a rolled version (glossier and higher quality) which I have to this day. I traded my folded copies (three I think) several years ago. Maybe, Paul has found one of them. Nice catch, Mr. Waines.

See, your knowledge still ceases to amaze me... Ted, teaching Charlie the basics of Uni Horror.... Noted.

Thanks for the info Ted. Could have saved me some time by posting sooner though ;)

Mystery solved Well done Ted, that explains the folds, and the writing on the back. It's good to know where it came from, and it may have been one of Brude's posters... Jollyfine. :)
It was worth a Tenner just for the game...

I tried to post a few times, Chris, and...blink...lost my connection.
This wireless router is temporary til cable hooks me up in my new cave sometime this week.
Speaking of my new digs, as I was hooking up the washer/dryer, I noticed a PVC pipe standing in the corner of the basement. I thought for a minute that one of my poster tubes got misplaced (they were all upstairs) so I grabbed it. It had no end caps and when I lifted it, a roll of posters slid partially out (I kid you not). They were badly damaged from moisture at the bottom and luckily, they were just recent video poster crap. But, as I unrolled them, I did find this 18x24 record store promo poster that was safe and sound from any moisture damage. So, I decided to post a pic here in new acquisitions. It is not my pic (I am not set up yet for pictures) and mine is not autographed. I could only find one Ebay seller with a BIN of $24.99. I dig the musician/filmmaker and the artist who painted him.

I noticed an image of a skeleton at a control panel that I don't remember from the film. Perhaps it is from a deleted scene or the poster artist added it from another film

So it was you who outbid me on this. I got a little lazy with my bid because I didn't think anyone was going to bid on it. It's definitely an obscure one. Obviously you liked the design too. Good pick.

I read (http://www.answers.com/topic/steel-town) it was filmed at California's Kaiser-Fontana steel plant (http://ludb.clui.org/ex/i/CA3008/) at Fontana near Los Angeles. Funny thing is the map shows it next to Ontario International Airport (http://ludb.clui.org/gmap/?x=-117.5008821487&y=34.0847826004&z=11&t=hyb) - must be another Ontario to the one in Canada.

Yep, I believe there is an Ontario, California whereas Ontario, Canada is actually a province not a city - but an interesting coincidence...
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvannia and Hamilton, Ontario are the two cities I can think of known as "Steel Town"
-
Ahhh Ontario is a Provence... I spend not enough time looking at maps, and too much time looking at pretty girls on posters, and, unfortunately, also penises on posters

I've sold/traded some stuff to get these:

Well they showed up unharmed. Although, I think the guy accidentally dog-eared one when he put it in; else very nice.... Whew! The tube was busted (typical royal mail) on one end but fortunately he listened and use a heavy-duty tube with tissues in the end... My heart sunk for a bit when I saw the tube. I think I am going to take a break from Black Swan for a while. The same old international image is getting old.

I think I got one of the better deals at Emovie today - $115 for a ROLLED 2001: A Space Odyssey( 1972rr). I do have a folded version but the folds really detract from the poster, so I'm glad to get this rolled copy:

Yes, for over a year (ever since they started) the Sunday auctions have ended 4 hours before the Tuesday and Thursday ones. And every single e-mail and post I make about them stresses this.

I am sure its all over the place; the countdown on my watch list should have given it away. When I just checked it before refreshing it said 1 hour and 37 min. I don't blame anyone but myself. I've never bid on any of the Sunday stuff and never paid attention to post about the Sunday stuff; just assumed they ended the same time... I'll get it next time.

It's funny - a rolled 1969 version of this is worth thousands of dollars. The 1971 poster is EXACTLY the same except for the line of text at the bottom of the image and the G Rating. The 1969 version of this poster is not well-known:

I found a loop hole in the US 1sht hiatus. Posters under $50 do not count. ;D
Plus, I blew it on the M/M strategy. I was holding out for the Part 3 auction. Since 1 was linenbacked, 2 was oversized linen, I thought 3 was regular posters. But apparently it is foreign stuff. Oh well..... :-\

Well maybe the checklist wasn't the brightest idea (spending money-wise); picked up the Israeli this morning. Knew where it was forever, made an offer and he took it.

Well, I might already be spent for the mini/major auctions... I just picked up this UK quad tonight. It has been on my list for a while now. Apart from the art deco/surreal French 1-panel, I think its some of the best art from the film. I was planning on putting up a bigger fight for the Endless Summer 1-sheet, but this quad is way more rare so I had to choose my battles.
What did y'all pick up tonight?

Nothing. I checked last week, but I think they were all linenbacked, so I passed on everything. Nice Salaire de la Peur, though. One of the most suspenseful movies ever made.

I got one of those deep red itlians years ago and was a fake, also a birdf with crystal plumage from the same seller, both fakes, got a refund though.

Yeah, like $100 or something. I couldn't pass. As you know, I own the smaller one, which is much better since it doesn't have credits. But you know, the completist that I am must have them all.

And I finally bought this stupid Black Swan B1 for $250, shipping included. Still way more than I wanted to spend on it, but with all of you loonies around, I don't think I could have found it for less. Thanks guys, Holiday included, for upping the price on this one. Bunch of jerks.

Yeah, but the difference is, I still get the Alamo's at their initial low price. So I don't care about advertizing them. Yet. But this one (BS) has been talked about, prices thrown left and right, I think it even sold for 1k. Meanwhile, little me is still trying to find it for $150. I finally caved.

I remember when I spent YEARS looking for a darn SERVANT UK One sheet, one of the greatest films ver, a great poster, but could NEVER find it less than US$300 (which at the time was AUD$600 - / +) - I coud never afford it, but man I wanted it. One day it shows up on ebay.uk. and $29.99 later plus postage it was mine, stil have it, still love it. i wouldn't sell it cheap though, rather keep it, venen though since I have a daybill, but thats the POSTER (WELL A QUAD WOULD BE NICE).
I'd rather 10 or 100 poster I love than the stupid thousands I HAVE - the precious ones, value means nada, they are worth it to me.

Was that his reserve? I bid $50 just for the hell of it. I see your e****e topped me but didn't meet his reserve; glad you got it. For some reason I still think I can get it for $100 someday and I'll wait...
-
I don't know. He came back to me afterward and I told him that I wouldn't spend more than $250 on it. Period. I gave him time to think about it. He's a little late in the game, I think. Most people already got theirs. And personally, I think you might be able to get it for $100 at some point. Just be patient. I had a $150 limit, but all this recent talk about the movie and the ugly advances you guys love made me want to get this one now.

Glad you like them. Space Vampires is Lifeforce, you know that, right? These 2 were actually the cheapest of the bunch, like $10 each.
One that I should have posted a larger picture of is this great Brides of Dracula by Koutachy. One step at the time, I'm trying to complete my French Hammer collection.

That is a beauty!
Now is that a Thierry hates "French Grande" or an affiche? laugh1
-
It is an affiche, which means that it is "a poster or advertisement, esp one drawn by an artist, as for the opening of an exhibition".
But it is a "petite affiche" (24x32in). The larger affiche has a different design.

I did not know that. I've heard of it but seeing those pieces makes me want to watch the movie. Sounds like a good deal. Always nice when great art has a low price tag, as many of my favorites were the least expensive in my humble collection.
That Brides of Dracula looks like an epic piece. Good luck on your quest to complete the French Hammers.

Very nice, T. Truly awesome pieces that will probably look as cool, if not cooler, 100 years from now as they did when they were first released.

Yes, unfortunately, it's getting increasingly harder to find them for a good price. I'm glad I got those when I got them. It's a waiting game.

My 'Merican eyes always read that as the "Mattresses of Dracula" which somehow seems just as appropriate.
I concur, though, that's a very nice collection, Thierry.

Your French Hammer collection is truly something to be proud of T. I think my favourite is the Wolfman one - lovely colours and layout.

Thanks Neo the Frazetta is getting framed for sure! The rock/face is apparently a boxing movie poster for the film "fists in the dark"???(never seen it) it came up on a search list that I have on Bruce's web site and I just liked the creepy Polish art. I think i'll be buying more Polish posters in the future....

I was briefly in New York City today and went by Jerry Ohlinger's movie poster store (http://moviematerials.com/). I picked up this recalled advance poster for Dracula (1979) for $90. It was recalled because it was too risque. It's rather uncommon and much harder to find than the replacement poster. Ohlinger has several more copies of the advance if anybody is interested.

Picked up this 4 Fogli on the eBay. He described it as a manifesto but you can clearly see the separation so I am pretty certain its a 4 Fogli. Now only the 2 Fogli left... I know there is a snipe on it but this just makes it more authentic to me. Plus if for some silly reason I ever had it backed I am sure they could remove it.

1962 "Paris-Champagne" French one panel (47" x 63"). Got it from Emovie tonight for $320, pretty cheap IMHO, probably because (1) it's risque and (2) too large for most to display. I've been after this for quite a while and I definitely prefer linen-backing on French and Italian posters to smooth out the multiple folds.

I took my wife to the Moulin Rouge this year (or maybe last year, I can't remember.) She wasn't too impressed. I think it has changed a lot since the 50s. Or maybe we've changed, making this kind of cabaret show a little obsolete. Nice poster, though. Too bad it's linenbacked ( ;D).

Mel: Another nice one :o (completely transformed your collection - you should get an award for this).
Bruce: It was a very exciting auction for me tonight. Man, I wanted that French African Queen (the wife had given me a decent green light amount too). Guess I am not the only one who is now thinking its the best art for the film. The Hepburn and Bogie art is unmatched IMO.

I have to agree with you Archie on the artwork, though this is one of the few instances where I prefer the petite affiche to the grande affiche. It is in landscape format and works better with the piano key image.

It's OK, since we are already talking about posters (and despite what T thinks), you don't have to use the redundant 'affiche' with me...
I like the petite as well, but it just doesn't have the grandeur of the gr@nde.

Well, I might already be spent for the mini/major auctions... I just picked up this UK quad tonight. It has been on my list for a while now. Apart from the art deco/surreal French 1-panel, I think its some of the best art from the film. I was planning on putting up a bigger fight for the Endless Summer 1-sheet, but this quad is way more rare so I had to choose my battles.
What did y'all pick up tonight?

Harry: So much color in that quad; nice!
I know I said I was slowing down on the Black Swan but I found some photobustas 4 of them not sure how many are in the set. These are different images than the standard International cracked face so they peaked my interest. Plus they are the big ones 23" x 18"... I really like the one on the lower left.

Dammit T; I have so far refused to collected lobbies. I let the bustas leak in because of there size. But since there just isn't anything else left for BS that interesting I am sure these are now fair game. I think there is a German set too.

Wow, I just got an indestructible PVC tube filled with one-sheet happiness from APF member Shockwave (Rick) up in Canada. Rick has 3000-plus posters for sale at these two photobucket accounts: http://s1127.photobucket.com/albums/l632/SHOCKWAVE063/ (http://s1127.photobucket.com/albums/l632/SHOCKWAVE063/) and http://s1127.photobucket.com/albums/l632/SHOCKWAVE063/SHOCKWAVE063s%20Album%202/ (http://s1127.photobucket.com/albums/l632/SHOCKWAVE063/SHOCKWAVE063s%20Album%202/)
Rick is very easy and honest to work with. Just copy the link of the poster you want and send him an offer.
That's what I did and this is what he sent me...

Cool lot, Ted. Really like the Barbed Wire. Pam Anderson was "quite the ticket" back in her heyday, especially with her incredible acting skills that really made Baywatch and Barb Wire classics. ;D Just noticed she's even firing a Desert Eagle in that one sheet. I gotta find one of them (the poster).
How's Shockwave doing? I noticed a heated discussion with him over on MPF a few days ago. (http://www.movieposterforum.com/index.php?/topic/34292-new-to-the-poster-scene/)

I noticed he nailed me in that thread.
for instance i made a sale and 2 of the 33ish posters were in question i sold a unfogiven poster to the fellow for $45 dollars as he said he was going to buy 50 off me so i gave him that awesome deal for the unforgiven poster he came back at me with the 2 problem posters i said to him im ok with fixing the trouble with the 2 in question either money back or keep and give some money back
but i mentioned to him he still needs to purchase another 17 posters but wonders of all wonders ive not heard back from him yet he got what he wanted and cares not about keeping his word like most people on the damned planet these days (everyone is human and makes mistakes i didmake some on my spread sheet)
I didn't even know the 50 poster thing was an ultimatum. He never made it sound so serious in our discussions. I thought he was just poking at me. Almost like he didn't care until he cared. I didn't know he was waiting.
I did buy 33 posters for $340 from him; unfortunately I haven't gone back because I was very disappointed in the quality. The Unforgiven poster in question had a 3/4" tear on the bottom repaired by scotch tape that I spent a good 20 minutes repairing. In fact I spent over 2 hours removing crap and repairing tears. I ended up tossing 5 to 6 of the posters. He also had several with inaccurate descriptions. He was to send a DS Forrest Gump (which I have always wanted); it was single sided and had crap and tape all over it. His advance Dances with Wolves had a chunk of the poster reattached with scotch tape. How do you miss describing that stuff in your spread sheet? It is truly a "buyer beware" situation. You would also think if the guy has 15 of a poster he could simply give you the best one he had. Some showed up with surface missing, tape, gunk on the reverse. The Four Rooms poster had some gunk in the title that just would not come off. The second Unforgiven I paid "Theater Used" money for is a Video poster. Plus there are all these Alliance snipes on several (I see Ted got one too).
I figure he probably owes me for 17 posters to replace the shit he sent me and the ridiculous $60 shipping tab. IMO I figure we are even on the Unforgiven. I was going to dip back in the well I wanted a "Big" and "Beetlejuice" but I never heard from him again. I e-mailed him about the damaged posters and he said we'd work it out. I hate to find out about this because I actually liked the guy and have been routinely checking for him in the chat room. Disappointing that he would slander me on another forum when all he had to do was e-mail me. I would have made another order when my coffers filled up again...
But I guess I got what I wanted and don't give a damn about keeping my word. nono You just lost any chance of getting more money out of me.
-
Charlie
luckily for you, several of the posters you want are coming up in both my folded auction next week and the rolled posters after Halloween (one Halloween sale will be rolled posters, but all horror-sf-cartoons etc)
so if you want Forrest Gump.. or Unforgiven or Four Rooms.. just keep your eyes peeled on MPB

Great 1sheets brude, liking the Silence of the Lambs and Army of Darkness.
Sorry to hear about all the hassle Charlie, I can't believe the amount of tape, tears and additional gunk on the posters was overlooked in their descriptions! No matter what the deal you get, if the majority of the posters you receive aren't as advertised there's something wrong!
I managed to pick of a Moon quad from the cinema store this weekend after having a good rummage around the Westminster collectors fair. I overheard a stall holder called Ari (American) speaking to a customer, is he a member on here!? I seem to remember someone with that name.

Charlie, sorry to hear of your bad experience with Rick. The MPF thread is news to me because I haven't been to that site in ages.
Maybe it was a communication problem? Knowing Rick, I'm sure he'd more than make good on the damaged items. You should send him another PM.
While I do have Alliance snipes on 3 of these posters, I don't have a problem with them. They kinda validate the authenticity of those particular posters, which have been bootlegged by the usual suspects.
All in all, I am very happy with the way my deal went.
I hope that you can straighten out your differences with him. If I can be of any help, I'd be only too happy to pitch in.
-

Personally, I'm not 100% surprised. I don't know the guy, never done business with him and never will. The way he kept telling us day after day about his inherited collection of posters and the amount of pictures he was taking sounded very fishy to me. And when I saw the pictures, I knew to stay away. No particular reason, just a gut feeling. And apparently, from seeing how many people are upset, I wasn't wrong.

I must be missing something here, T.
You say, "apparently, from seeing how many people are upset."
Who else other than Charlie (and an MPF member who did not purchase any posters from Rick) is upset?
I received 14 posters, all in VF-NM condition, and I am far from upset.
I have been collecting, buying and selling movie posters for 45 years.
Doesn't my testimony -- and the pics I posted of the posters I received -- bear any weight?
WTF?

I wouldn't call it a bad experience overall. Some of the poster were winners. The Braveheart Advance was spot on as well as many others. And what T said was basically my initial take on the matter. I guess I relied too heavily on his written description because it was a pain in the ass to go through all the pictures. I take some of the blame for what I received. I was relatively sure he was going to take care of me if I made another order but I just don't know what I would be getting. I just say that if you are going to buy from him, make sure and triple check the pictures and ask as many questions as you can.
I've e-mailed him; but he seemed to suggest he would replace if I made another order. This is now starting to make sense regarding the "50 poster" comment. I also e-mailed him again today to see what is going on with his comments.

I would actually say that I am not all that upset about it as it was my own stupid fault for not listening to my intuition and working harder to make sure I was getting good stuff. And as Shock is not a poster dealer he may not have known the finer nuances of describing posters and relied to heavily on his photos as well. I just chalk it up to a lesson learned I got some winners and losers but at the end of the day value-wise I pretty much broke even.
-
Like I said, Ted, I have zero intention to buy from the guy, and even if I did, reading Charlie's description of some of the posters he got is unacceptable. Tears and missing pieces on modern paper is a no-no in my book. You may have got what you wanted from the seller, and I'm sure someone else will, but 2 unhappy customers out of 3 sounds like an Egbert score to me. Modern posters are easy to find, they are all over the place, and if they're not mint and perfectly described (like Dale does), what's the point?
-
One thing I will say is that if you add up the time this guy spent photographing and hawking his wares, and then add up how much he took in, and then divide to get his dollars per hour, I would bet he made WAY under minimum wage. He should have just put them in a closet and pulled them out again in 20 years and seen how much they were worth then.

Right on, Bruce.
But you forgot the last -- and most important -- part: He should then consign them to Emovierposter.com thumbup

And then you'd know that the description is accurate, the pictures large and crisp, the packing impeccable, and none of the above would have happened.
Right, Bruce?

See, T, Bruce's marketing strategy is so good that he doesn't even need to plug himself in cases like this -- he has us trained so that we do it for him.

When Rick (shockwave) first started posting I had some issues with him as well .. All of this make me an offer and taking forever to get back with me .. and then when I make an offer (on about 20+ posters) he goes off saying that I was low balling him and one of them was for sale for like $200 or so on ebay .. which iirc was from DaveL .. and he didnt like when I said Dave had a reputation and thats justified from him but not Rick.. and he would go on about how he was going to ship everything in PVC and blah blah and how expensive that was going to be .. It was just a big hassle overall and he was wanting high end dealer prices on some of the posters .. In the end it just wasnt worth it to me so i did not end up buying anything from him .. So my experience was somewhat like T's .. I got a bad vibe and just stayed away .. even is some of the posters came in perfect condition it wasnt worth it to have to deal with that guy.

I guess Bruce's M/M must have sucked out all the money in poster world, because Heritage's auctions were pretty cheap last night. I just could not resist one of Brude's all time favorite posters at a discount. ;D

No wonder you rarely post...you are too busy buying up all the best f**king posters on the planet.
Your September update is spectacular.
Congratulations on ALL of the great paper.

Excellent update, hoss. The descriptions and everything on your website are top notch. Your stockpile of rare pieces, which is always becoming more impressive, never ceases to amaze me. Great work. thumbup

Thanks for the nice words. I'm pleased with the progress. But, for all the reasons we've been talking about, it's harder and harder to buy when there's increasing competition.

I mean this in the nicest way possible - YOU SUCK!...
Not sure what the difference is between your red titled Startgate and my white/grey titled B1.... anyone read Japanese? That blue Black Swan is probably the best of the title in my Natalie infatuated opinion.

Wait a minute; I have to compete against you for Stargate material now? Glad I am almost done. Only four left that I know of.... And I am not collecting SG-1; I have some doubles if you want to trade me that Blue Swan ;) Better kill my checklist till I am done. I don't want to give you any ideas.

Yep.
But the way I look at it, you kind of brought that on yourself.
You and Eatmybrie started this forum and I believe there might be a direct correlation between the hobby's exposure HERE and the increasing competition.
It's a bittersweet bendover, I'd say.

It's worth the sacrifice. I would also have to (choke) give a bit of credit in that regard (puke) to Andy. While Thierry was well on his way without him, I owe my initial learning to my participation on MPF. Now, all of those people came over here, so it's the same crowd. But, I don't forget my oh so humble beginnings.

laugh1 Classic line. You're probably right Ted, as Mel would say "monkey see, monkey buy" most likely influences current prices. When there is a score for a cool piece, it is increasingly more rewarding IMO, which is cool.

You guys do realise that the Blue/Black Swan B1 is advertising a magazine don't you? Still a nice poster.

I USED to contact these guys as soon as they surfaced and tried to explain WHY it made more sense yo just bundle up their 3,000 posters and send them to us (they get them sold ten times quicker, they get more money and they do no work) but I learned that you can lead a collector to water, but you can't make him drink, so I now just let these guys discover the truth on their own!

I think the problem with that Rick guy (or probably any new seller that did not "buy" or put their own collection together is, that when they go to sell the collection they EXCPECT to get prices like Bruce of DaveL .. And telling them to consign and give up as much as 30%+ of the "profit" seems crazy in their eyes. They think they should be able to get those prices and keep that extra "profit" .. They also turn a lot of people off with their high price lists that can run probably 2x what the typical unknown seller on ebay would get .. So they get stuck putting in all the time and effort organizing and taking pictures and they end up selling the really desirable pieces right away and are left with the remaining 95% of typical posters that arent all that sought after .. and now if they wanted to consign its not as likely for someone like Bruce to take a few hundred $5 posters with a bunch of duplicates all in varying degrees of condition.. So they end up maybe making $1/hr and still have a crap load of cheap posters they probably end up tossing. But that is just greed at its finest .. Everyone wants to keep every penny for themselves! They dont want to cut in a 3rd party or admit that they do not have the reputation to demand the higher prices that established dealers have. They just want the $$$ !!!

Well its been way too long since i last posted anything - had a few squabbles with some builders & some neighbours & works been a bitch but life goes on! Everything seems to be getting back to normal - touch wood - so i re- enter the fray with some pics of my recent purchases. God,its good to be back - though not sure the wife would agree!
(http://i746.photobucket.com/albums/xx107/m154cath/KGrHqMOKooE5kIdRYELBOcQBIR8i60_12.jpg)
i remember watching the BBC series when i was young-totally brilliant & what can you say about Alec Guinness! though not quite as good still v.enjoyable.
i have the 2 quads & the US 1 sheet is on its way - i think - but this is my favourite
another of my favs & looking forward to watching - not a bad poster to boot!
(http://i746.photobucket.com/albums/xx107/m154cath/UK%20QUADS/P1010003-5.jpg)
i Know v. little about the film but the poster looks great & i certainly wasnt prepared to spend £50 on a quad.
(http://i746.photobucket.com/albums/xx107/m154cath/US%201%20SHEETS/hobo.jpg)
another 1 from Dale - still havent seen the film but i love the poster
(http://i746.photobucket.com/albums/xx107/m154cath/US%201%20SHEETS/13assassins.jpg)
i do like my Pixar films & im sure this will be better than Cars 2 (http://i746.photobucket.com/albums/xx107/m154cath/UK%20QUADS/P1010138-4.jpg)
Nothing needs to be said - read the books,watched the cartoons now just waiting on the film
(http://i746.photobucket.com/albums/xx107/m154cath/UK%20QUADS/P1010138-2.jpg)

I really like the 13 Assassins, but IMO the movie is far from as good as the poster.

Good to see you back Mlke, I must get one of those Tintin Quads, really first rate. thumbup

(http://i746.photobucket.com/albums/xx107/m154cath/UK%20QUADS/P1010140-2.jpg)
i think has become my favourite for the film - looks awesome - picture doesnt do it justice
(http://i746.photobucket.com/albums/xx107/m154cath/UK%20QUADS/P1010144.jpg)

Charlie scored big time today. Just randomly did an international search on eBay for Portman. The seller also had the Keira! Damn I'm lucky. I have to brag sorry for those who hate money talk but I stole them for like $15 each (but then there the $40 ship from France). All 120x175... Don't know how I am going to hide these from the wife though...

Dude I was shaking when I saw the Keira... Holly crap am I lucky to find this... Click the button now fool! They somehow made it 2 full days without being bought.

If you go as far as that, I say Grace Kelly and forget the rest.

Ok, that didn't take long. Wife found out. I made a deal that I can hang the Portman but I have to get rid of all my old Playboys.... Any takers, else they are going on the curb. Nobody puts Natalie on a shelf... She said no way to the Keira (I do have a 3 year old) so she's probably right.

I went Nastassja (obviously), Winona, Keira... A German, an American Jew and a Brit. But Grace remains the absolute beauty from Philly.

Grace always mesmerized me. Seemed untouchable/unreal; beauty like that can't exist... I am a big face guy. I figure if I can look at a girl's face and melt that's all I need. Grace's face was just perfect. I always tried to find a flaw but even her flaws were perfect.... Can't afford her posters (yet)... One day. Thinking I should collect stills instead; wow :o

Okay, Breakfast at Tiffanys is a ball breaker, but the rest of her posters can be had for under 500. You just choose to buy 10-30 posters a month instead of one Grace. Cut back on the Black Swans and Stargates and you could have a great Grace collection by Xmas. (http://www.sherv.net/cm/emo/christmas/santa-dance.gif) (http://www.sherv.net/santa-emoticon-253.html)

Your right in that regard. Breakfast at Tiffany's is on my dream list but that's Hepburn.
Grace's 1-sheets:
Dial M for Murder = 1500 - 2000
Rear Window = 4500
To Catch at Thief = 1500 - 2000
High Society = 400+
The rest are manageable...So great, Black Swan, Amadeus and Stargate are almost done; Grace will be the next obsession.... Good call Brian. I could actually get all but the Rear Widow if I discipline myself. But that would mean no posters for two-three months to get one Grace. Whew that's gonna be tough.

I admit Grace is very pretty, just yutte is a little better ;)

You can do it, Charlie. Just go on a "hiatus" between purchases. ;D Plus, you just double down on the time spent on your website to fill the void.

Can't quite make out the fine print on Mikes photo, but Yes Matt first release. There is a later 60's one with the same image.
-
Thanks Paul, I know this had been re-released at least once, if not twice (late 70s too?). This copy is a beaut... looks like it was printed yesterday! The colors are fantastic for being 57 years old.
-
The 76 release is different art work, if I can find it I'll post a pic...
-
Disney re-releases are a minefield when it comes to attributing dates. Press books, if you can find them, are an invaluable source of information and corroboration re poster designs. For a 1950s poster, I have to say that one looks extremely clean and well-preserved. Do you have any provenance to explain how it's been kept so tidy?
Terry
-
re. 20000 Leagues - love to say original release but it was advertised as 60s re-release. £60 well spent as far as im concerned & yes it is in immaculate condition - if i had a space on the walls.....
what differentiates it from the original release?
& Paul whenever youre ready to start doing swaps for current release posters just let me know!
p.s. Harry - i love the Wages of Fear quad - never seen it before & its now on my "wants list"
-
This is the first release quad and sadly very tough to find;

-
i think i prefer the re-release!
-
I must say, well done Longfellow clap I've never seen that version before. I know there are two release's of the one Mike has, and I know one is from the 50's and one from the 60's. Always a learning curve with poster collecting. I do like the little portraits on the left, Jollygood. Can't find a pic of the 76 release, maybe Terry has one he can post and then they are all posted.
As Terry says Disney's are such a mine-field, I may start collecting the U.K. Press-books myself..... well someone needs to. ;D

Hello again!
I have just found this image of one which we sold several years ago. According to my notes, this one had been cropped down to 27" x 36" approx but, strangely, longdog's image seems to match around the edges. Does anyone have an image showing the full extent of this version, please?

The one longdog posted has a white border if you look to the upper left Terry. That would count for quite a bit of the measurements.

I dig all 3 versions. All cool images.

Well starting to feel like I jumped for excitement too soon. When I was looking again at the listing it showed he had relisted the item. His description says not new look at the picture for folds etc. as well as bus shelter. But he has used the same photo to sell, well I stopped at 5... of the same posters. I mean unless he has a box of them? They were also listed in poster pub - "reissues" after I translated the french. It may mean reprint. If those suckers are not exactly like the photo and they don't look like the real deal; they are going back....
-
Charlie, I can reassure you that these posters are not reprints. What concerns me more with this seller are damages. I don't think the posters are mint. I have seen the Portman poster for a few months now. I actually passed on it when I bought mine earlier this year because of the folds.
Let me know if you need a French translation.

I have the Aussie daybill but with a different title, which i can't remember at the moment.

Charlie, I can reassure you that these posters are not reprints. What concerns me more with this seller are damages. I don't think the posters are mint. I have seen the Portman poster for a few months now. I actually passed on it when I bought mine earlier this year because of the folds.
Let me know if you need a French translation.

Oui en effet il s'agit d'affiches originales qui ont été utilisées pour la campagne de pub sur abribus en France. Elles ont été pliées lors du décrochage ce qui est visible sur la photo.
Whew!

Yes, they are original posters used for the advertizing campaign in bus stops in France. They have been folded when taken down, which is visible on the picture.
Why the fuck were they folded?

Nice daybills Matt

Rick, Atomic Submaraine and Mystery Submarine are not the same movie
But I have Mystery Submarine daybill under a different title (not Atomic Submarine) but with similar artwork to the one-sheet on the previous page. It has typically nice Aussie colours. I'll remember the name and find it and post it here.

The Pans labyrinth British 1-sheet is spectacular.
I also really like the Black Swan B1 (magazine ad) and twelve Monkeys Quad.
They sit pretty in the right collection.

one of the things I like about threads like this is to see the wide variety of collecting habits we all have. Few people collect exactly the same way.
another aspect is seeing some posters you haven't seen before for "mind cataloguing"

Ha, Mr. Cynic, the Muppets are groovy. Haven't you seen the Muppets' version of Bohemian Rhapsody (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tgbNymZ7vqY)? Plus I have very fond memories of the 70s TV show. I deliberated avoided the US poster:

Ixne on the Big Lebowski. I got the dreaded "sorry we oversold" call from movieposter.com (http://www.movieposter.com/poster/MPW-68971/Big_Lebowski.html). Oh well. I still have the French one panel with the same image, so it's hardly a tragedy.

He's been trying to sell that copy for $750 for over a year. Hard to tell what its true value is. Because many of the foreign posters use that image, I wouldn't pay a lot just to get an 100% English language version. (Many of the foreign versions use the English title but use local language for the taglines.)

$750! jawdrop
What's wrong with some these dealers. Are they out of their freakin' minds?
-
I don't know T... I'm not a betting man, but I'd bet in 10 years time this poster starts selling for $1000+ at auction. It's got a lot going for it:
- It's from auteur director(s)
- It was a theatrical dud that later garnered cult status (some might say epitomizes/defines cult status!)
- This int'l 1-sheet has a better image than the regular 1-sheets (IMO)
- Very few have ever sold at auction... I'm guessing number printed were also very small (comparatively)
- Only eMovie has auctioned them so far, but even several years ago it was going for $300+
- Hell, the movie inspired a festival (Lebowski-fest)! There will be no shortage of collectors.
Given all those factors, I'd say this is one poster to watch. I got mine on eBay for $170 a while back, but that is only because Mel wasn't paying attention ;D I imagine I was lucky though. The next one won't go so easy...

This is just another example of the image-in-glasses cliche. Really nothing special as an image goes. The US onesheet, on the other hand, is a strikingly unique image that sets up the mythology of the film far better.

Star Trek Subway came in last week; forgot to post. I am liking my office wall for taking photos of large format posters... I can easily fit a 4 fogli.
Also neat that it is from NY; had to run a search on the Loews Orpheum to figure it out. Pretty cool in my book.

New to this fporum but been on Ari's NSFGE for a while.
Being Australian daybills and Aussie paper are my favorites but I also have a weakness for US posters and cards.
Here are some recent additions to my collection.
Glad you found your way here too Rick. We clearly need more aussie paper saturation ;)

welcome1 to APF, Rick!
This FLY 1/2 sheet kicks some serious ass.
What's the chance you could start a Rick's Poster thread in Show Us Your Collection?
I've seen some of your paper at NSFGE and it is killer.
Great to see you here!
Pretty sure that's the Title lobby? But yes it's still nice ;)

While I don't agree with Archie that this Lebowski design is nothing special, I will agree that the regular 1sh (Bowling style) much better represents the film

Well, it depends on what you think the film is about... Is it about a drug-fuel hallucination filled with porn and bowling? Or is it about the Dude and his singular focus to get his rug back? I mean, it really ties the room together. Does it not?
They seem to both represent the film pretty well, actually!

I just picked up this one last week and feel pretty good about it.

With so many reissues it's great to get hold of the original. The only problem with that Peter Pan though, as my young daughter pointed out, is that Tinkerbell isn't featured.

Wow, I never noticed that before. I never realized that there is not one sign of Tinkerbell on the original Peter Pan poster. It surprises me that they would leave out such an important character.

I just don't see this ever going for $1,000. It sold for $365 two years ago on Emovie and it sold for $170 recently on Ebay. If Heritage or Emovie listed it today and properly advertised and promoted it as "extremely rare" it might go for $400-$500.
(http://i691.photobucket.com/albums/vv275/Forty_Candles/Screenshot2011-09-27at120156AM.jpg)
10 years is extremely speculative. IMHO movie poster prices have generally plateaued and the hobby will begin a long decline when the studios cease printing movie posters in the next few years. Like baseball cards, movie posters will have less relevance to younger people and the number of collectors ultimately will dwindle. Just my cheerful thought for the day :)
-
Well, you kind of need to be speculative if you are in it for the long haul. I remember Bruce saying he could barely be bothered to sell titles like Breakfast at Tiffany's 1-sheets back in the day. I think one of the reasons this poster hasn't gone higher is that it is so rare that few people even know about it. You said yourself, if properly described and auctioned in a mini/major... it would probably bring ~$400-$500. I don't think its a stretch to think it will double in another 10-years.
Here is the real question Mel, if you had seen the eBay auction... what would your max bid have been?
-
Here's the thing. It is the kind of posters where just about everyone thinks they are "overpriced" at $100 and which a lot of people WOULD buy if they were available at $50, and which are hard to find in nice condition at any price, which are the ones that most likely go to $250 and then $500 and then $1000.
It just takes people getting used to each price level. And the same guys who would have bought it at $50 when it was $100 are looking to buy it at $150 when it goes to $250!

I won this beast a few weeks ago. My first purchase from Heritage (on eBay). Not the worst purchasing experience I've ever had, and I'll just leave it at that.
(http://i766.photobucket.com/albums/xx303/NeoLoco80/DSC01266.jpg)
-
What condition grade did that get?
-
It was listed as "very good" (on their scale, of course, but I would have said on their scale "fair to good"). The horizontal fold was not mentioned and apparently I overlooked in the picture. :-\ It did state "there are a few extra vertical folds", which I disregarded since 30x40s were not folded, so "extra vertical folds" made no sense. It was rolled into about a 2 inch diameter (for quite a while) and being thick cardstock, that was not good.
Gotta give props to people who store vintage gear flat. Especially cardstock.
-
Their "very good" DOES equal our "fair to good". Carry your "condition translator" at all times and this will happen to you far less.

More from today's mail:
Stargate 2F; bought this because it was cheap the seller then e-mailed me said he didn't have it anymore and would send me two photobustas. I selected two stargate photobustas one I didn't have and a replacement for one that was pretty beat up.
So I was not expecting a 2F. Then this showed up.
(http://www.abideposters.com/apf_junk/092011/stargate_2F.jpg)
Matias made me aware of this one that didn't sell and I got it for 1 euro. It is not perfect but I've never realized there was an advanced version notice the "Le 31 Octobre"...

Your that super nice dude T! Funny thing (I think I mentioned this before) is how random supply is and how certain posters never come up and then boom there are two within a week. Actually right after I bought the one you showed me (and your posters) this one popped up for 2.50 euros; I couldn't pass it up for that price... I imagine your Kenski is in the bowels of the Houston USPS hub; or at IAH processing...
However, I did forgot to tell you that I did get that third Dario poster added in time; sitting on my shelf waiting...

Thanks Schan! I am still torn between this and the Casaro. F. Murray looking down in the Casaro just sums up the whole movie for me in one glance.
This advance version is much better that the other one I had that is matte finish. The semi-gloss really makes the keys pop or maybe it is the extra bit of piano?

(http://www.abideposters.com/apf_junk/italian_1p_amadeus_linen_JC01682_Lsm.jpg)
Man I have to say I am completely blown away by how nice a linen backed version of this 2F looks in person... Its like looking at a painting. It arrived today and I just find myself staring at it; and then I want want to touch it like it isn't real; My velvety Casaro beauty... I sooo made the right decision buying it.
Thought about framing it (for 5 seconds) but funny thing is, I think any covering would detract from its beauty. Its the texture and the way the light absorbs and reflects that makes it irresistible.

Mars Attacks!! That is an ass-kicking poster. The best of the bunch Ves, congrats!

To Charlie: I don't like the French versions... too dark and depressing. This one does it for me. NICE!!!
To Ves: I don't like you!

Thanks for all the kind words (and interest) in the MARS ATTACKS!.

Exactly what I was thinking :)

Don't care what you guys are thinking. I own them all anyway.
HA!

Which is exactly why it fits the film better...
Nah, the film is about the envy of man (Salieri's) , how it can drive men crazy, and consume their lives. The film to me has very little to do with Mozart, IMO. The Casaro fits my perception of the film to a T... Salieri is looking down in envy of Mozart's effortless talent, that he so much takes for granted as he gives in to temptation (that Salieri vows to sacrifice for one God inspired creation).
The French says Amadeus is Mozart - that's pretty much it... The film has nothing to do with Mozart; that's one of the beauties of it. Take away the Mozart bit and you still have a great film about human emotions, desires, and frailties.
Salieri: On the page it looked nothing. The beginning simple, almost comic. Just a pulse - bassoons and basset horns - like a rusty squeezebox. Then suddenly - high above it - an oboe, a single note, hanging there unwavering, till a clarinet took over and sweetened it into a phrase of such delight! This was no composition by a performing monkey! This was a music I'd never heard. Filled with such longing, such unfulfillable longing, it had me trembling. It seemed to me that I was hearing the very voice of God.

Yeah, no...
The french image is reflection of a solemn genius alone on stage against a background of the whole of society. Besides wonderfully evoking the period and musical aspects of the film in a nonstandard way, the image also gives the impression of indirect approach to the subject matter. That, along with using Amadeus as a title, tells you that it is not a simple film about Mozart.
The Italian is a standard character collage that does a better job of illustrating the father-son dynamic than anything else. Well done, but nothing particularly special in its design.

That's all you could come up with? Didn't think it would be so easy; you didn't even put up a good fight. How is slapping a picture of Mozart at a piano evoking the period and musical aspects in a nonstandard way? It shows a period musician in front of a period musical instrument. And I am starting to wonder when was the last time you watched the film. Yes, I would agree that this is a wonderful representation of Mozart the man, "solemn" genius, but it does nothing to show a peak/summarize the film itself. Its a superficial loss leader to dupe people into thinking they are going to see a movie about Mozart. If we hadn't seen the film, the French suggests it is a biographical film. As far as indirect subject matter; again how is a musician (as we discern it is Mozart) sitting in front of a musical instrument indirect? It speaks nothing indirectly; plus the actual subject matter that makes the film work is Solieri's human qualities. Remove Solieri and you have a PBS special... So it completely misses. Actually, I do agree with the title (it's quite perfect) but then this is on all the posters.
Thanks for solidifying my preference here. The back and forth really helped me.
So now competing for second place for this title: The French or the British Quad. I actually think I would hang the quad before the French...

Wow, you completely missed the point.
The indirection of the subject matter is indicated by the use of the reflection (candle lit against the surface of the piano). You are looking at a slightly altered version of the reality. A normal telling or standard biography of the Mozart story would, at best, use a from the front picture of Mozart leading the orchestra in front of the crowd or it would look far more like your perfunctory Italian example (Mozart surrounded by his cast of furry characters).
Just because Salieri is on it, doesn't mean it says more about the film and it is certainly not the job of a poster to summarize the film. In fact, is it usually far better for a poster to tease an idea rather than spell it out completely. It's what make the Thierry hates "French Grande" art and Italian just another obvious image.
BTW, I've seen the film at least ten times, including very recently, but that has nothing to do with this. That the film is about the envy of genius was as obvious when I saw it in the theater all those years ago as it was a few weeks ago. It's the relationship between Salieri and the Genius that gives the film its weight, misplace either and the entire structure would fall... True, it could have been any genius, but, once again, that's why the film was called Amadeus...
I am not even going to mention your misuse of the term loss-leader, but you should really look it up...

I do understand why this poster is attractive and why it does work in some ways. I did miss the indirection you referred to, as I thought you were indicating an indirection in the viewers perception in meaning of the image itself; darkness, weight of the world on Mozart, etc using the physical reflection as symbolism. What I didn't miss is the reflection in the piano... The physical reflection is a no-brainer as being an indirect way to present an image. It is a really neat way to show Mozart getting ready to play the piano. I don't understand why this image is even relevant as Mozart was a composer not really a concert pianist though.
I do agree it is not the job of the poster to summarize the film. But we are talking which is the better representation. Now do understand I am in no way trying to throw the French in the trash, it is a beautiful poster for the film. But in terms of best poster for the title; that's the discussion... As far as the concept that the Italian is being obvious or summarizing the film: Which is Mozart in the image? Who is the girl? (oh there is a girl in the film) Why is that guy standing and looking down at them? Why are the two silhouettes different? (one his father, one Solieri) What is with that mask? I had said that the poster summarizes the film but this is after you've seen it. If we are going to compare these we either need to do so as blind to the film or experienced with the film. I guess what we are getting to is that it takes a persons experience of the film to read more into both of these posters.
I think if a person had not seen the film both posters are a bit indirect but after a person had seen the film the Italian makes a lot more sense and the French just becomes a cool image you can read into if you want. That is why I choose the Casaro...
I have a feeling that this argument could go on for pages and that we will not be able to convince one another anyway. So I will will give you my certain victory as gift and we'll move on. ;D
And trust me I do know what loss-leader means as my father retired from Dr. Pepper and I use to work for him in the summers. I may just have used in a way that was difficult for you to apply to the conversation since we are disagreeing on film concept and the point of the French poster. My basic meaning was that the French poster was a ploy or loss-leader to get people to come (buy) see Amadeus (based on the indirection [low price] that it was about Mozart) when they were really duped into seeing (buying another good) a film about Solieri's envy. Yes you could get technical and say these are the same goods etc. Plus in the soda water business the loss leader was more about getting people in the store through advertisement irregardless if they bought the product. Soda is one of the products that the loss-leader concept is used on the most.
I guess you owed me one for the "when was the last time you watched the film comment"...

It's a miss-use of the term then. 'Bait-and-switch' would be more accurate to what you are describing.

Did you buy it . or are you looking for it?
Nope, I pulled the trigger. He shipped it yesterday. It was listed on the eBay and didn't sell at the opening price, so I contacted the guy and made an offer... It wasn't one that is super high on my list (still wanting to get premium Grace titles) but I couldn't pass it up; I felt sorry for the poor thing no one wanting it and all. I figured worse case I could enjoy it through Halloween and then consign it and maybe make a few bucks that I could apply to a Grace purchase. However, I never can quite commit to selling stuff. Maybe an item for an eventual trade....
See, I think it is just impossible to go on hiatus; I am already concocting excuses and plans to cover a purchase. This hobby is nuts...
You guys think I should get it restored? The tape at the top is a bit annoying but overall (according to the seller) there are not many condition issues. I imagine a backing would make the image pop though... Plus it is one of those rarer titles. I know some are totally against it.
-
It's a jollyfine poster, though if your "planning" to sell on, I wouldn't back it. it does look pretty good as is. Still you can never tell until it's in front of you.
I've done that myself, buy a poster because it's reasonable to sell on..... I still have them. :-\

Sure does.

I've just added this to my site (http://www.filmonpaper.com/). I'm thrilled to have tracked down a rolled copy of it as I've been looking for many years.

Man I need to buy a lottery ticket; October has been too kind already. Check out what I scored from my monthly local dealer....
He brought this Fistful of Dollars. He said it was Turkish, but it is in French and on the back is written "Moroccan". Its beat to hell and the silver fish took some paper but its quite colorful and I am pretty sure its 1st release paper... Anyone seen this before?

Awesome haul Charlie.

Awesome haul Charlie.
Thanks! It's like my local guy can read my mind and he practically gives them away, price-wise...
-
The Fistful appears there should be more pieces based on the border on the left and top?
-
Charlie I love how you make "your local guy" sound like a crack dealer! So true with this hobby
-

So maybe two separate sheets; or are you thinking bigger. I did notice Sergio was left off... There is some writing that has been cut off on the lower right. I though maybe they trimmed it to fit a frame. It is very close to the size of a standard one sheet...
-

He is a crack dealer; and a damn good one. All I showed up for was the Large French Affiche and the Fistful of Dollars. He threw in the War & Peace, Gave me the Godfather for hardly anything and the Carrie for a reasonable price then he says "take the Hellraiser home and see how you like it. You can pay me later for it. Just start thinking about a price; you can pay me whatever you want."
On the hook fo' sure...
-

I looked up the French Large Affiche; it does not have Sergio on there either. Weird....

I fell for Lana Turner when I first saw her on TV in the 1941 theatrical version of DR.JEKYLL AND MR.HYDE.
I was just a kid and just beginning to notice women.
She was only 20 years old when the film was made.
She played Spencer Tracy's fiancee, and she was beautiful.
(http://image.xyface.com/image/l/artist-lana-turner/lana-turner-147514.jpg)
I always wanted to add one of her movie posters to my collection, but there were few that really appealed to me,
until I saw the poster from 1955's THE PRODIGAL, where she starred as the Biblical temptress Samarra.
The movie wasn't that hot, but 34-year-old Lana sure was.
(http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_qskaSRkns8A/S8lI6XFwGnI/AAAAAAAAONM/t8Htr2O7CSM/s1600/lana-turner-prodigal.jpg)
I had the one sheet on my wish list for a long time.
It appeared every now and then at auction, but I kept missing out.
I was always either too late for the bidding or too poor to pay the price.
Then, one appeared a few weeks ago.
Now or never, I thought and I made my move.
It arrived today.
I haven't taken pics yet, but it looks just as good as this.
(http://i629.photobucket.com/albums/uu12/brude2000/ProdigalOneSheet.jpg)
Lana Turner died in 1995, but she is immortalized on celluloid and this very cool movie poster.
-
Nice one sheet, Ted. One of the best things about collectibles is they're almost like time travel to much different, and in some ways, better years, and they're even better when acquired at good prices. ;D
-
clap Congratulations Ted, It'a always a great moment when we get something very special we've been chasing for years.
A fine piece.....the posters jollygood too.. ;)
-
Thanks, guys.
She has come to a good home. cool1
-
Good on you Ted, well done! Nice background info too.
-
Great job Ted. happy1 My dad was always making me watch Lana and thought she was a total bombshell. Thought maybe folks on the forum didn't think much of her. I bought some older posters just because of her before I joined the forum and when I first started posting was always thinking "noone is into to Lana?". Thanks for restoring my confidence...

Working on an update, but wanted to show of this particular B1.

So something exciting happened today. I framed the Ghost Breakers and my wife sees it and for the first time ever says something positive: "I really like this one, maybe you should keep it." (I had told her I didn't plan on keeping it). She says "I really like the older posters, you should buy more." jawdrop
Man the colors are excellent. I think I am going to send it to Dario. The seller sent it rolled up in a 2 inch tube and it seems to have more wrinkles than before. Boy is it gonna pop when he's done....
(http://www.abideposters.com/apf_junk/102011/breakersinsert.jpg)
-
Lots of good stuff this month. I really dig the Prodigal and the hot mermaid! I think that insert for Ghost Breaker even beats the one sheet!
(http://i691.photobucket.com/albums/vv275/Forty_Candles/GhostBrekers.jpg)
-
Awesome B1, Holiday.
Nice one, Charlie. That does have an almost 3D look to it, huh? It looks cool with the weathered/vintage appearance, and I bet that it would look like new after linen backed, but either way it will look good IMO.

Man, I am so conflicted about getting it backed. It does look awesome as is but I know it would just scream backed. But then it loses some of its uniqueness... Tough decision...
-
It is beauteous, Charlie.
As was Paulette Goddard, one of the greatest.

Very nice! I have a wilding bus stop poster (48x70in) with the same image.
(http://www.eatbrie.com/large_posters_files/Piratesofthecaribbeanonstrangertides2.jpg)
It popped up once on Ebay when the movie came out, along with one of the girl alone. I missed on the girl alone, because I thought I could get it later, but the two styles never showed up again.

She says "I really like the older posters, you should buy more." jawdrop
You lucky bastard! You really should have recorded that as a statement such as that is mythical in these parts...
-
She says "I really like the older posters, you should buy more." jawdrop
Agreed with Chris. I hear something more like "I really like the older posters, you should SELL more." :D
-

Agreed with Chris. I hear something more like "I really like the older posters, you should SELL more." :D
The trick is to keep buying the same title over and over and over. Then throw in a hot Natalie and Keira bus stop and then blind side her with some vintage art. Her control clock gets all out of whack and she is like:
"Well, its not a half naked girl, its not another stupid Black Swan, and this thing is worth some money? (we could always sell it; not like his stupid $5 Stargates)... Hey, I could live with this, in fact I really like the new direction... OK encourage him, encourage him..."
-
So you were the winner of that mermaid bus shelter, T. I bid on both of them, and I'm kinda surprised that no more have appeared since then. It's probably like finding a mermaid in real life, a lifetime commitment deeeealio. :D I can't complain, though, I got this one which is IMHO the best flick with a mermaid as one of the main characters.

Gotta love it when a plan like that comes together, Charles in charge. Well done. sm1

My buddy just gave me this Army Of Darkness subway poster because he got one in better condition. The bottom is chewed up bad, but, it was free. It cannot be displayed properly as is, but, I do not want to trash it either. What would you do with it?

It's too nice to trash, I'd put it in my "posters that need things done" Draw.... ;)
-
One idea would be to frame it and then have a couch or something hide the bottom. No one will ever know the bottom is gone.
-
What would you do with it?
Conor
Pee on it to make sure it's real!
-
I'd take a straight edge and an exacto knife to the bottom. Trim off the jagged portions and tack it to the wall.
It's still a cool piece of art.

My birthday present from my wife. Been on my watch list for 6 months... It is the Gone With the Wind of Indian Film....
(http://www.abideposters.com/apf_junk/Inkfrog_23564.jpg)
-
You lucked out big-time, Charlie.
Epic poster for a true masterpiece of cinema.
And, having your wife buy it for you is absolutely priceless!
-
I think Ted knows how big a deal this poster is. I do hope it makes it from India in one piece. It is a treasure; to even find a 1st release or near 1st release. It was only released in 150 theaters in India. For some of you who are not familiar here are some interesting facts:
-The film was finally released on 5 August 1960, and in 150 theatres all over the country simultaneously, which itself was a record in those days. It became an instant hit and collected a record revenue which remained unsurpassed till G.P. Sippy’s Sholay broke it 15 years later.
-It took over 10 years for the movie to be complete.
-The first full feature-length movie to be revived/colorized for a theatrical re-release in the history of world cinema. It has been done for some Hollywood movies but only for re-release on home video.
-With the advent of Jhansi Ki Rani in 1951, colour films became a revolution. K. Asif wanted to remake the whole film in colour, but when the distributors lost patience settled for having two songs and the film's 30-minute climax shot in Technicolor, with the rest of the film (85%) black-and-white. However, in November 2004, the whole movie was restored and colorized in a year-long process by the IAAA (Indian Academy of Arts and Animation) and re-released.
-This was one of only two films K. Asif completed. When he died in 1971, he left behind two unfinished films, Sasta Khoon Mahenga Paani and Love and God, the latter released by K.C. Bokadia in 1986.
-This was (counting Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Devdas) the most expensive film ever made in Indian history. Tailors were brought from Delhi to stitch the costumes, specialists from Surat-Khambayat were employed for the embroidery, Hyderabad goldsmiths made the jewellery, Kohalpur craftsmen designed the crowns, Rajasthan ironsmiths crafted the weapons, and the elaborate footwear was ordered from Agra. For the battle sequence, 2000 camels, 4000 horses and 8000 troops were used, many of them soldiers on loan from the Indian Army. Altogether the film cost Rs. 1.5 crores (38.29 crores in present terms).
-The song "Ae Mohabbat Zindabad" had singer Mohammed Rafi with a chorus of 100 singers.
-The song "Pyar Kiya To Darna Kiya" has an unusual history to it: it cost Rs. 10 million at a time when a film would be made for less than a million; it was written and re-written 105 times by the lyricist, Shakeel Badayuni, before the music director, Naushad, could approve of it; it was shot in the renowned Sheesh Mahal (Palace of Mirrors); and in those days of sound recording, editing and mixing, as there was no way to provide the reverberation of sound, Naushad had Lata Mangeshkar sing the song in a studio bathroom.
-For the battle sequence, 2,000 camels, 4,000 horses and 8,000 troops were used, many of them soldiers on loan from the Indian Army. This was arranged through special permission through the Indian Ministry of Defence-a rare occurrence today. The soldiers came from the Jaipur regiment of the Indian army.
-The statue of Lord Krishna used in the film is made of pure gold.
-The movie was originally shot three times, once each for lips moving for Hindi, Tamil and English dialogs. The Tamil version of the movie did very poorly, so the dream of having Shakespearean actors from Britain doing the dubbing in English was dropped. In 2004, it was announced that after extensive search, no copies of the English version are available.

I'm with Ted, go from the top of the ratings box and whack the bottom off.

An alternative would be to mask the bottom with black paper stock. That way, it can be recovered if it suddenly becomes valuable.

Thanks Ted. And the answer really depends on who is asked - I say not enough ;)

I just bought my girlfriend this for her birthday . It is in great condition, and came with 2 ticket stubs from the showing it was acquired at as well as the insert that was included with the program. I am 99% sure it is authentic, given the providence provided by the seller, and the price that was paid for it.

So I made a deal to get a framed Planet of the Apes 1S. This is the seller's pic. It's supposedly not dry-mounted and looks to be original:

Anyhoo, the poster every Horror fan needs in his collection....

Much obliged. So is it printed or hand drawn?
-
Surprisingly it's printed, and measures 30" x 42" I'm guessing from the late 80's. Very unusual. my pic doesn't help, must try harder with photos... :-\
Someone has been messing around with a couple of the letters, so there may have been a mistake in the printing!!!

Yep amazing collection Holiday, always look forward to your updates... but damn it, now I need one of those blue Harry Potter posters!

Tell me about it Mel... never knew it existed until that last auction. But I do know where that photo came from you posted, bargain.

Scored a few daybills from emovieposter. I'm starting to see the end of my quest in poster collecting, as many of what I consider to be epic pieces, for movies that mean a lot to me, have been added to my humble collection, and I'll probably just be picking up a few here and there that are first rate posters, for movies that I like. Some really good prices on these, excellent descriptions, excellent packaging, and lightning fast shipping as always, good work and thank you Mr. Hershenson and the emovieposter team.
My apologies to Rdavey26 on this one as I remember him mentioning that he was looking for one, but on the bright side, he was already outbid by RonGrazi before I swooped in with my 5 minute marker snipe. I haven't seen the movie since I was in elementary school, and I have no idea what is going on in the image on the poster, but I remember liking the movie when I was a kid, and this has compelled me to see the movie again.

I saw a bidding war begin to unfold when I bid on the blue R81 version with 5 minutes left and the previous high bidder bid again right away, so I went to plan B. :) I saw the purple one, which according to John Reid is "the most desirable Mad Max poster (http://reviews.ebay.com/MAD-MAX-Original-Australian-Daybills-amp-One-Sheet-poster_W0QQugidZ10000000003486830)" and placed a bid for the lowest amount to see if it would overtake the high bidder, and I was stoked to see that it was enough to make me the high bidder, and I was/am even more stoked that I won it. Emovieposter has sold about 10 blue ones for every purple one (about 30 blue daybills and 3 purple ones in the auction history). It is an epic piece IMO and I think the series is going to be held in high regard for a while.

Looks to be in perfect condition too.... nice pick up!
-
Don't know about the most desireable but definately the true first printing/first release.
I think most MM collectors want the Orange One Sheet, which almost never turns up...and you thought the aussie Halloween one sheet was hard to find.
Definately a great purchase there...hope you got a good price!
-
Nice pick ups Neo!
I saw the orange one sheet down at the Tyabb poster shop once. I can't remember the price exactly. It was more than $2000.
-
Yep...saw it there too...Didn't bother asking the price because I knew it would be astronomical
-
Thanks fellas. I can't say why he claims it is "the most desirable" but maybe it's because it's the first release. It's cool to have a piece that is from the time before the movie was a big success, as there are a lot fewer from the first screening, so in that sense it has a different, and some would say more substantial historic significance. I can also see why the orange version would be more desirable as there were so few printed, which increases the cool factor IMO. They're both epic pieces IMO, the orange being more of a unicorn, but not with the same mystique as the purple (IMO).
-
Good taste, Neo. Nice smorgasbord there!
-
Just got this today. Seller wouldn´t do shipping outside the US but fortunately it could be triangulated with APS`s mighty Brude (thanks a bunch happy1).
Pretty beat up WC for the only Hollywood film made entirely with argentinean funds, from 1928.
Sorry for the crappy pic. Didn´t have time to take a new one yet.

This is by a mile, and when I say by a mile, I'm quite generous, my best acquisition ever (the most expensive for sure and the rarest). A 1944 French Laura poster (47x63in) on linen. Only 2 copies of this baby are known to exist worldwide and one of them just arrived at my doorstep this morning.

"Charge of the Gauchos" is muy dulce.

Holiday, HERE is a poster I have never seen before (or anything else on this wacky movie) and like Peter I didn't even know it existed (and that is really, really uncommon!
Anyone have a pressbook for "Charge of the Gauchos"? I'll give $100 for one in nice uncut condition.

That`s one hell of a compliment coming from a collector with such fine taste. Thanks thumbup

Well, no one is going to accuse me of good taste. ;D
I just picked up this one from Bruce. Advertised as 1 of 100, and of course, if it is good enough for Mel's collection, it is good enough for me. Now I have both versions, both pink dress and the rare red one.

Glad you learned something new Bruce :D
Argentinean paper (with the original title "Una nueva y gloriosa nacion") is probably very rare, even when the film was a hit here and played in theaters at least two years...
The condensed version for US audiences - retitled "Charge of the gauchos" apparently didn`t do well, even when publicity presented the main character as South America`s George Washington
If you happen to find any paper, I`d love some images ;)

A great day for French posters...
First there was Laura, which is now in its frame.
(http://www.eatbrie.com/large_posters_files/Photos/Laura5.jpg)(http://www.eatbrie.com/large_posters_files/Photos/Laura4.jpg)
Then Vadim's Et Dieu... Créa la Femme (...And God Created Woman). I own 2 or 3 copies of the 64 re-release, which is the one a lot of people mistakingly sell as the original. I finally got the much harder to find 56 version. The picture below compares both, the 56 on the left and the 64 on the right. Nuf said.
(http://www.eatbrie.com/large_posters_files/Photos/Etdieucrealafemme.jpg)

Finally, I showed a small picture of Une Parisienne (1957) before, but here's a larger one.

What about me? I don't count for shit? I had it long before Mel...

I can't. It's in the hallway. There is a wall behind me. It's the only place in the house where I'm allowed to put posters (aka where no one can see 'em).

Umm, great, except that half my collection blows chunks. Fortunately, you're now obliged to buy them :)

Great pickup Thierry. And from what I can tell from your terrible picture it seems look even better on the wall.

I can't. It's in the hallway. There is a wall behind me. It's the only place in the house where I'm allowed to put posters (aka where no one can see 'em).

Might even be a good thing Thierry can only frame one poster at a time considering the amount he has. Could build a whole house out of them!

Sorry, I did not know that you own it. Well, at least that proves that you are not a poster snob. ;D
I wonder how many APF owns out of 100. We are now at 3% of the total. Does Holiday have this one? I wonder what are group total is?
Bruce should be happy with tonight's auction. It seems that several APF members showed up. I bought the highest priced poster. Dale and marklawd were on the 1st page of high prices. And those are just the names that I know.

FYI, this one was a rejected style, becasue the gold on the dress was too much. At least, that's what the original seller was saying on eBay when they were gradually liquidating these. Not that it matters, but are these numbered? I was under the impression that there were more than 100...

Who knows? Bruce's story is that Disney got a 100 and vetoed the color. However, Bruce has only auctioned one of these before and Heritage has auctioned none of the red dress version. So as much as I hate actual numbers ( ;D), I do believe that this poster is at least very rare.

Kilian only produced a limited number of the red dress Style D (sitting down) versions as samples. Disney wanted her dress to be pink like it was in the movie. So Kilian changed it to pink for the final version and sold 250 Style Ds. The red dress version was never sold to the public. Kilian also sold 750 Style E posters (pink dress, Jessica standing up). Emovieposter contacted Jeff Killian to confirm this a while back.

My 4 Fogli came in today... Nothing special up against T's monster pickup. I know "same boring Amadeus image" "here we go again", but I was so excited to see how near mint this sucker was and even though the eBay photo had a torn corner and a snipe; they magically fixed themselves on the way from Michigan, "cough, cough" Italy.... The guy lists as selling from Michigan but they actually are coming from Italy.... Not often the delivery is better than first thought, especially on eBay. Really a fine example of this poster. Mission Amadeus Italy accomplished; Locandina, 2 Fogli, and 4 Fogli. (Guess technically there is still the Foglio, and Photobustas)

Very cool, Ves. Is that a polish one sheet? What is Dario's little masterpiece?
Yes a polish.
This is what Dario's looks like...I can never find a picture of the actual one. Dario kindly did a number of high quality copies a little while ago, because we all kept pestering him so much:

If you ever wondered why I collect Flight from Ashiya, my Grandfather served at Ashiya AFB during the Korean war... One of these day I need to add my collection of military items to my website. I went through a whole phase of tracking down items from each unit for his whole military career from before WWII to the end of the Korean War through the early 60s.
Picked this yearbook up yesterday after about a year of waiting; I missed the damn thing last time, I think by a few bucks. Hope to see "Papa" in here somewhere when it arrives. Also has a patch on the cover I am missing. I can have it made, but maybe one day I'll find an original.

Probably because it's fucking awesome.

I wish I could find the original picture...the prints don't do it justice
It's the grittiness (for want of a better word) of the poster that fits the film so well...it's like a little snapshot of movie poster magic for me.
Dunno, hard to explain, but if I could only have one poster for this film (which is one of my favourites) this would be it...sadly that will never happen.

I like that one too... looks like the medium size French from the fold patter.
Hey T, what year is your poster from... it is really 44? This movie was released in the states when France was still occupied by the Nazis (I hate those guys) so I assume this must be from the first post-war release. I would assume mid-to-late 40s based on similar movies from the day...

Yes, it is the medium size which does pop up at auction houses from time to time (not on Ebay :)) The same guy I bought the large Laura from has one. I'm sure it won't be cheap.
And my poster is from 1946, a year after the end of the war, when the movie first opened.

Two weeks into this month and we've seen a lot of outstanding acquisitions by many APF members. Once T posted LAURA and Schan posted MAD MAX, it all seems so futile.
And then there's me...the trash collector. Humor me for these humble acquisitions. Seeing as it's October every month at my flophouse, I decided to purchase some cheap horror titles.
Here's a few of the better ones. Pics are from the seller, posters are in transit.
This is my only double-bill. Two films that gave me nightmares when I saw them with Mom and Dad at the drive-in in 1962.
It slays me that I was able to find the original trailer on Youtube.
That darn internet, pretty soon it'll be on everyone's computer. - Homer Simpson.

October is turning into quite a month, All trumped by T and his jollyfine French posters, Do subject us to more T, we can take it... ;)
I didn't mind Bogey Man, Ted. Though it has been a few years since I last watched it. May have to give it a re-run...
-
T: Even if I don't collect 40s posters I can appreciate Laura - gorgeous artwork. Congrats :)
Schan: The Mad Max is a beauty and I'm definitely jealous. Have you been after it for a long time? I'm now wondering how rare it is. Maybe Mark can chip in on that?
Brude: 'Bells' is superb! What a tagline...
-
That BELLS one sheet is very cool, Ted.
-
Nice ones Ted. I like the double bill poster and also Bells thumbup

Thanks all.
BELLS is one of those "in yer face" designs that kinda grabs you.

Glad to see you back.

thanks Ted although I don't know for how much longer, I've bought a big money pit!

Damn mahmudf... our tastes are much too similar! Great posters... my favorite of which is Rififi. I read a few years ago that it was going to be remade with Pacino, but luckily it looks as though that project fell through. You can't improve on this movie... don't even try (shakes fist at Hollywood)!
-
They have tried for many years. My first job out of USC was to do a complete analysis of the book for MGM. They wanted to see what Dassin's movie had left out. I turned 100 pages to the studio. I still have it on my computer and just tried to open the file but it won't. It's not supported anymore :)

thanks Matt they are seriously running out of ideas

It's not out of ideas that they're running (there are plenty of great ideas in Hwd), it's out of money.

It's not out of ideas that they're running (there are plenty of great ideas in Hwd), it's out of money.
why are they remaking films like Footloose?
-
Because kids (movies main audience) have way more distractions nowadays than they did say 20 years ago (think computers, video games, internet, phones, etc...) and it costs a lot more money to lead them in the theaters. Remaking a known title (whether it's from a book, a TV show, a play, whatever support you can think of, whether it's a remake or a sequel) leads to instant recognition and less marketing money spent. Hollywood movies cost as much to make than to advertize. There is more to it, people have written books about it, but you do the math and you understand why producers are not to keen on new and untested projects. Trust me, these projects are out there, people are as creative today as they were yesterday. Money doesn't like risk is what it all comes down to.

thanks for the insight , it a real shame though. I watched a remake the other day Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy which I thought was excellent and I have now added the original BBC series to my rental list
BTW i have hit 90 posts!! can you believe it ! woohoo woohoo woohoo
I've never posted this much in any other forum!!

It is a shame, but it's an economic reality. If you were a young producer and saw the numbers, trust me, you'd go the easy route.
And you posting on the forum doesn't surprise me... We're awesome!

Yeah, now that the Black Swan conquest is over and I am only 4 or 5 short of everything on Stargate what's a man to do? I lined up some nice Grace pieces once we close on the house (sent a down payment to hold)... But they are mine so I guess I'll claim them now...

Your High Society "is sensational, darling". Man what a women. I love that scene by the pool. She was so mesmerizing, I don't think Frank even knew what to do with her. He kept looking away like a shy school boy.

Very nice insert. You are starting to build a very high quality insert collection. I had no idea who Diana Dors was until I started collecting posters. Some of her classic one sheets are very expensive. This insert seems like a great compromise, good art and good price.

I really like the insert format; especially if the image fills up the space vertically. I'm bidding on this one:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/110757163340?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649
but I hope I lose because my wife would shoot me. See, even when you out an auction that your bidding on, you can be a hypocrite... Somebody out bid me please; I really don't want to have to explain to it to the wife... But if you don't and I win that's good too.

And Road Games should be posted in the Aussie thread too. Really good film.

Two reasons:

2) You would now own it and not me.
Now that I've got mine, I'll find another and PM you.

2) You would now own it and not me.
Probably not, I bid on this poster and lose all the time. The few that are in decent shape always tend to creep up in price just enough to be out of my reach. I would have just cost you more money ;)
I'm in no hurry on this one as I don't expect the going price to move any time soon... but please do PM me if you see another in similar shape. Thanks!
-
Thanks guys for not coming over the top and taking this one away. My bid was what would have gotten me in trouble but for for an Andrew Jackson I'm pretty safe. I did, a little experiment, keep track of the number of views before and after my post. Before there were only 12 views it ended with 32; and within 3 hour of the post it was up to 25. So outing an auction on APF does drive awareness but, NOBODY WANTED THIS BEAUTY? Lucky me! 8)

My babysitter!!!!
True story. My parents and Olivia lived in the same building Rue Raynouard in the 16 arrondissement of Paris, where I grew up. I think she was right underneath us, but I could be wrong. Anyhow, she babysat me many times. I don't remember much, since my parents got a divorce when I was seven and we moved to a different part of Paris. I just know she was my babysitter :)
T
-
My babysitter!!!!
Wow!
Thats too freaking cool.
Great trio of Daybills Matt.
-
Yeah... I just wish I had known who she was back then. She's still alive and still living over there I think.
-
No offense T, but something doesn't add up... Was she already famous when she was your sitter? She was born in 1916 and she started acting in the mid-30s. I was under the impression that you were quite a bit younger than that...
-
She was already famous and retired in France. We're talking about the early 70s. I don't know how long she's been living in Paris, but quite some time.
T
-
PS: It wasn't a paid job. She was helping my parents out. Something doesn't add up :) You're funny.

Did she speak French?
Did you eat your green vegetables, when she asked you to? ;)
-
Great! I should have never said that. I should have known that a bunch of low life scums like you guys would get on my ass about it :)
Matt, I don't remember. I can ask my Mom this weekend if you really want to know. I have no recollection of it. I just thought it was a fun fact.
T
-
Nah, just teasing. It is a fun fact, thanks for sharing. :)
-
PS: It wasn't a paid job. She was helping my parents out. Something doesn't add up :) You're funny.
Gotcha. I didn't mean to give you shit... I just think of babysitters being about 10-15 years older than the kids they are caring for. I didn't think you were like 75! The alternative -- someone famous babysitting -- didn't sound right either... Little did I know.
Yes, please ask your mom when you see her if you behaved for Mrs. De Havilland!

for ABBOTT AND COSTELLO MEET FRANKENSTEIN came up, I just had to get it.

You cannot believe what bad shape it was in when I bought it, but now after my good buddy
Lynn Naron passed it on to his buddy Ron Borst, who passed it on to some highly gifted restorer,
it looks like it was printed yesterday!

Thanks guys!
Is that from the 1954 Japanese release?
Sean and I were discussing earlier today about the origins of this poster. There is another design for this movie, closer to the US artwork, which has different distributor information than mine. Maybe there were two distributors handling the same movie in different territories of Japan. I'll try and find out more through some sources in Japan and post it here.

I had quite a long list of stuff to get from Heritage tonight, but I had to go furniture shopping, my phone went dead (of course) and I made it back home with 2.5 minutes left.

Yeah at least a Grace 1-Sheet a month. My wife would shoot me if she read that.
You know your hooked on movie posters when you start referencing the number of posters you could buy in place of money spent...
Had to buy new pants this past weekend and said to myself; "could have bought two posters for that."

Man, this one has to be hard to find. Just happened across it and was the only bidder. A Hindi film on Mexican paper...
"Boot Polish" I'm loving the color. Spanish translates to "Beg or Die"... Check out the Indian landscape in the background.

Interesting artifact, Charlie...1954 Hindi in Mexico.
From the art, I gather the good girls starve and the bad girls make money with their bodies.
I like the color scheme, also. Nice pick up.

Yep pretty much. Its about a boy learning how to make money polishing shoes instead of begging. Just wonder what it was doing being shown in Mexico... But at that time I imagine there could be many similarities among the poor from both countries. Really neat find and the art is really good too.

So, I guess I have been into Mad Max lately. I was excited to find this one in an obscure place for very cheap. Those kind of deals are getting harder and harder to find these days, especially for something so high on my want list. I am calling the Mad Max collection complete, but if I were to luck into a Japanese B1, it would be a nice bonus!

Yes they do! Every time I get one in the mail she says "A poster! Black Swan?" She can even tell Amadeus and Stargate posters by the images. Then of course she has all her Disney posters I get her. She loves Megamind... Had to buy her some of those. I sit her on my lap and let her pick one off eBay or emovie every now and then. She's hooked. :)
What a cutie Matias!

So, I guess I have been into Mad Max lately. I was excited to find this one in an obscure place for very cheap. Those kind of deals are getting harder and harder to find these days, especially for something so high on my want list. I am calling the Mad Max collection complete, but if I were to luck into a Japanese B1, it would be a nice bonus!

I think if I let my daughters do that they would probably pick the most expensive posters out there. My daughters are the same way when it comes to getting a poster in the mail except they say "another poster dad" lol. They enjoy the posters just as much as I do. It is great.

I was watching that insert Charlie, well done.

Another great Mad Max poster you got, Schan. I've been on a Mad Max spree as of late, also. ;D
Scored this awesome English one sheet a few weeks ago from bondcollector (http://myworld.ebay.com/bondcollector)on eBay, a good guy to deal with. The wait on it was pretty darn long, about 3 weeks after it was sent, and the tracking info. didn't work too well, which made the moment of arrival that much more glorious. ;D

Wow! Great price!!!
Indeed..........I wouldnt worry about waiting 3 weeks at that price! Thats less than 1/10th what I paid!
-
Wow! Great price!!!
Yeah, thanks. It took me a while after the auction ended to realize that I won it for that price. I thought I had no chance but nevertheless was counting down the days for it to end. Right after I won it I was like "oh look, now emovieposter has a rolled one" :'( then I felt pretty darn lucky that I was able to score this one, cause there's no way I could have hung with the big dogs at emovie for the rolled one, since the auction got outed 8). I'm just goofin', there's really no evidence why that one went for so much more. (Shameless plug for Bruce) He should have consigned it with emovieposter. thumbup

I really think that these don't appear for sale often, so you gotta get 'em while the gettin's good. Also, your copy is rolled, and in better overall condition, and the 3 weeks wait was not the most stressful thing in my life, but if I could get my darn flux capacitor working, I would go back and pay extra for express shipping with better tracking. I already have 10-15% grey hair on my head, according to the expert, and at this rate it will be fully gray pretty soon. :-\

Great job on the Fooey Manchooey Rick!

The Fu Manchu and Future Kill came from a local city councillor who used to run a video shop backl in the 80s. He said all the posters (about 30 of them) were from the video store but and majority were cinema daybills (Fu Manchu was the best of them).
He knew I collected posters so kindly donated them to the cause. I owe him a media release next time his election campaign is on!

I like that 'Fu Manchu' Rick, congrats!
To celebrate Halloween I'm adding one horror poster a day to my site (http://www.filmonpaper.com) this week. Here's today's, with great artwork by Seito:

Looks like its in fantastic shape... congrats! And as an aside, it also looks like you got the 'bright green' titled version as opposed to the more 'forest green' version. I'm not sure which is the first printing, but I much prefer the one you got... maybe that is because I have it as well though ;)

Harry, I learn something new every day. I was never aware of the two color versions. I checked some old auctions and none ever mention it. So that is strange. But I agree with you, the bright green looks better. Thanks for the info.

Don't see a lot of this style.

It's a shame that they didn't put Amy Adams on any of these posters. Two dudes hugging just doesn't do it for me.

Yeah, I'm surprised about that as well... they are actually pretty easy to spot as, even aside from the color difference, they also have slightly different fine-print text/logos/etc at the bottom. Considering that the 'bright green' versions match the lobby cards and half sheets, I would guess that version was printed first and the 'dark green' version was printed later after they ran out. However, that is just a wild ass guess... not sure if we'll ever know definitively.

I think agent provocateur posted one of these a while back. Grabbed me then, too.

Charlie, from someone who doesn't own 1 single Stargate poster, can I ask you why you're so obsessed with it? Is it your favorite movie of all time?
T
Yeah, I would say that Stargate is easily in my top five. The first time I saw Stargate it was like the flood gates opened in terms of thinking outside the box. I did a much better job in my head at putting the pieces of the story together than the film did. But it was how it got me thinking that makes me appreciate it so much.
It was also one of the last times that my two cousins (the only brothers I really had) were still young and happy. My older cousin had just got married and writing sci-fi novels (all failed) it was so much fun to sit around and talk about meaningless crap. We all went on opening night, my two cousins, one wife and my sister. We had so much fun talking about the plot as it developed and then tearing it apart after it was over. I still remember my cousins new wife not letting him eat popcorn because they were trying to lose weight. I remember walking into the theater arriving early so we could sit in the very middle for the best sound. I even remember the color of the walls and the seats being so low to the ground. The theater has since closed (turned into a dollar theater) and I get to drive by it every now and then seeing it as converted to a warehouse or just deteriorating into oblivion.
It seemed like after that moment in time, the world just became real. My other cousin got married and we all stopped hanging out. Later, my older cousin went into the Air Force and moved off and he later divorced and actually had a small breakdown (never really got the whole story).
That opening night of Stargate seems like that last innocent piece of time we all shared together. After Stargate everything seemed to drift into a haze of confusion and unanswered questions about life and family relationships and the future without my two cousins (as I was the youngest). I guess that specific memory of shared happiness somewhat lives on through the posters.

Well, I finally gave in a tad and bought a real Star Wars poster. I really liked this one because its suppose to be the first poster with Yoda on it for the series.
Its not exactly like the pic, but exactly like the one on page 78 of the Star Wars Poster Book with "ONE SHEET - EMPIRE STRIKES BACK - RERELEASE SUMMER 81" on the bottom. Plus I think the pic is a 30x40 or something but it does the job. The seller mentioned the Star Wars Fan Club. I've seen this one with a NSS; differences?

Artist Tom Jung (who also painted the original STAR WARS 'A' sheet, the STAR WARS half-sheet and the ESB 'B' sheet) is the talent behind both of these RR posters.
He is one of the unsung heroes of our hobby.

My guys/gals will see this when they walk in. (I'll snap a pick once it's up) The spot has been bare for two months. Don't know why I waited so long. Man I love the beginning of the month. ;D
Wilding....

Yes you did, jaxlax.
All three are cool, especially this one.

Just received these two chirashis from APF member jposter.net (Mike) from New Zealand.
Mint condition, great price, safe packaging and fast, fast shipping.
Thanks, Mike!
Now, if anyone knows where I can pick up one of these AVPs at a B1 or B2 size...

This PLANET TERROR chirashi is a 4-pager that folds out to a nice 14x22 poster of Rose Megowan's torso...

Star Wars Style A, it's a little beat up, but looks great. I can't afford a really nice one so I'm very happy with this one!
(http://i1138.photobucket.com/albums/n525/jaxlax2150/Posters/SSFNewHopeStyleA.jpg)

jaxlax two great posters... my opinion on the Star Wars Style A is it's perfect. It's a great poster, stunning art and the wear and tear really adds to it's authenticity. Love it :)
-
Oh I love the Star Wars one, I agree that the wear on it really adds to the overall feel to it. and at the price I got it at it was a steal.
-
Here are my new purchases.

Great addition, Rick!

Nice pick. I forget about Rich's auctions one time out of three or four. I did tonight, otherwise, I would have probably bid on the rolled CE3K.

My attempt to avoid Star Wars is backfiring badly. Lot of good deals on the eBay I can't resist. It's like there are so many Star Wars posters people just stop paying attention.

Hey, that is pretty cool. What is the size? I like those "Y-Wing" fighters.

IIRC it was folded in half vertically and in thirds horizontally... what is an album, 12"? So probably 24"x 36" or there abouts...

Yeah, I wonder what the story is on the unfolded one (that I posted from Bruce's past auction)? The one I got last night was folded and the listing had a crappy eBay photo so I used Bruce's.
If it came in an album, it would have to be folded. If it was rolled that means it never made it into the album. Strange.... Wonder where Bruce's came from?

Yes, that is a cool piece. Back in the day, I bought the soundtrack album just to get the poster by Berkey.
Too bad no one at the studio told him that there was only ONE Millennium Falcon...
A great addition to your STAR WARS collection.

Yes. The artwork is by Kazuhiko Sano, who died earlier this year. He didn't do a lot of movie posters, but he will be best remembered for these two from ROTJ...

I'm really wanting one of those original ones on the left. I already have the original with just the Lightsaber. It's nice, but I like the Sano one much better.

I'm sure I'm jinxing myself somehow by posting this before I've taken possession, but fingers crossed. I just posted this in the Star Wars thread...
I just won lot 121 for the opening bid of $50 in this auction: http://www.aaauctions.com/auctions/catalogs/11n3/11n3.htm

And what do you think the odds are that the rolled ESRB Aussie 1-sheet is legit? :o
-
Damn Matt, that`s a whole lot of posters for just the opening bid. Congrats man! and thank god no one outed it ;)
-
Damn! If you are getting all that for $50 there is something wrong with the world! There are so many in there that I want so badly!
-
Matt, the number one rule of collectibles is NEVER brag about a purchase before you have it in hand.
When you get burned once because of it, you learn. I sure hope this was not that time, because this WAS an incredible deal, and congrats!
Bruce

Calling the auction house right now to see if they want to double their money. May throw in a bribe too...

I have to admit, I'm paranoid like that. I never post a new acquisition until I have it in hand.
-
Matt, the number one rule of collectibles is NEVER brag about a purchase before you have it in hand.
Bruce
I wholly agree with that statement. It is an incredible win but you do not know for sure that the auctioneer is honest and unless you pick up immediately after the sale there is a possibility, however remote, that "post-auction research" could lead to something "happening" to the posters to make them not available to you. Furthermore, there is a fair chance, given the type of auction, that the posters could be poorly handled whilst they remain on the premises and then insecurely shipped. It might be worth paying extra for a specialist shipper to pick them up promptly and properly pack them for you.

Wow Matt that is beyond ridiculous. If that Aussie ESB is legit (which is appears to be and in fantastic shape too) I am going to puke

I've added this Dragonslayer quad, with artwork by Brian Bysouth, to the site (http://www.filmonpaper.com/) today. I'm also a fan of the US one sheet (http://www.filmonpaper.com/posters/dragonslayer-one-sheet-usa/) but this just edges it IMO.

So when something like this happens, there is a seller, right? I feel for that guy. Or don't. What kind of an idiot would hand his SW posters to an auction house no one has ever heard of. He gets what he deserves.

Perhaps he's dead and this is an estate sale organised by elderly executors who don't know any better. I blame the auctioneers for seemingly not giving a proper appraisal.

I know you are just kidding Charlie, but that is a scary thought right there! :o
I've considered all the possibilities Mark mentioned -- auctioneer wises up, damage, postal trouble, etc... -- but those are all out of my control and aren't impacted by posting here. What you mentioned is almost too horrible to think of, that someone here might try to intercept these posters before I can take possession. For all of you miscreants licking your lips out there on APF, keep in mind the following. I'm a skilled practitioner in black arts and just this morning I put a curse on these posters. If they do not make it to their new owner for any reason, the people responsible will never have good luck for the rest of their lives. If they do have an experience they consider to be 'lucky', it will be offset of something terrible. The only way the curse can be lifted is for the posters to be delivered to their rightful owner (i.e. me as of 10:30pm last night).
Food for thought... nono

Probably what Mark said above.
However, on the flip side... who in their right mind would ever assume that a couple scraps of paper with Star Wars written on them would ever be worth anything? I'm pretty sure we are the idiots here! ;D

And if it was an estate auction then multiply it be hundreds of items. Was this the best place to sell a vintage cuckoo clock? How about the victorian art prints? Sometimes it simply isn't worth the effort to search out the ideal place to sell, go through the consignment process and monitor dozens of different auctions.
Yep, the seller lost money on this one, if you don't count time and effort.

Hi, Matt!
Only a tiny sour note in the context of such a bumper bundle, but I think you'll find that STAR WARS TRILOGY quad is the slightly undersized repro which always has very narrow top and bottom borders - the correct one should be 30" x 40" - other than that, congratulations!
Here are images of both - note differences top and bottom edges - full-size (ie correct) version first ...

Oh I love the Star Wars one, I agree that the wear on it really adds to the overall feel to it. and at the price I got it at it was a steal.
So where does one find an original Star Wars Style A for a half way decent price? I don't mind some flaws and wear at all (mostly because I know that I can't afford a near mint one) - but I've been looking for the past couple of months for one, and all originals seem to go for $300+, even with quite a bit of wear...

You practice patience and dilligentness. I think you are looking on the wrong sites. This poster comes up regularly on emovieposter and on movieposterbid. Depending on the week, it can go for $300+, but some weeks it will sell for $100.
If you must have an image now, buy a fake. Then the search for the right one won't be so urgent.

I just snagged one for $104, totally original, has some wear and tear but the aging really adds to the feel and authenticity of the poster. I love it and am so happy I managed to get it for so cheap. I had been looking for a while, had a couple sniped out from under me, but you have to be patient and a little bit lucky to finally get one.
Here it is;

Great Score Jax!
T is right. I've been eyeing 58' Kwai stuff forever; always overpriced. The insert I scored yesterday started out at $175 or something retail. Everyone kept passing it up and the seller kept dropping the price. It even got passed up at $50. It has sold on emovie ranging from $122 to $201... So I e-mailed the guy and asked what he would take; he relists it at $40 in auction format. I write him back tell him I'd send the opening bid money right now if he ends it early. Viola! He changes it to BIN. I got a very significant piece for that collection at least 1/5 I could have gotten for from emovie or 1/10 retail....
But the key was watching it go by for almost a month without biting... and never be afraid to ask the seller for a deal...

All three are beauteous, my favorite being THE FLY.
Who did the restorations?
-
a three sheet is 41x81, so you buy a 4x8 sheet and have it cut down. As mentioned, best place is a local store. However, both Lowes and HD sell full sheets, and will make the first cut for free. I bought frame rails from grafik dimensions www.pictureframes.com
I backed mine with white coated masonite (shower backing paneling), but that adds to weight. If I were to redo it today, I'd use 3/16" plexi and thicker foamboard.

quick question, where is the best place to get plexi for a three sheet?
Here it is;
(http://i1138.photobucket.com/albums/n525/jaxlax2150/Posters/SSFNewHopeStyleA.jpg)
nice poster at a nice price jax!
i have to comment at all the stuff used to hold it flat. am i seeing two cellphones, a spoon and possibly a pack of matches. ;D
They were what was near when I unrolled it, I was too excited to get something better, but for clarification it is a cellphone and an iPod, not 2 phones.

That 3 sheet is a beaut, Evan, and it appears to be in very good condition. Nice one.
Great lot, Ves, and a few more examples of vintage poster restoration that appears to be well done.
Not a big fan of lobby cards, myself, but those are very cool, Matias. I've stared several times at the one sheet for Dr. Jekyll you posted in another thread. Really awesome.
Got this bus shelter from Supreme Posters (http://myworld.ebay.com/supreme_posters/&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2754) on eBay. A neat "new school" piece IMO. This one replaced the one that got damaged from a guy mentioned in another thread. The deal worked out better for me, since the original one I got was the first (and only) one at the time on eBay, and I paid $41 for it, and I got this one (which is in much better condition) for $10, and even after paying the $15 to return the first one, I still saved a few bucks.

laugh1 I was actually watching a show called Prophets of Doom (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nSpLUpiMkj0) on the History Channel a few weeks ago, where there are a few guys and each talks about one issue that they think will result in the demise of Earth and all people. A couple of them talk about diminishing resources combined with over population, one talks about the economy, and one talks about how robots could take over the world (or something to that effect). Very interesting show, although the part about the robots was really wacky.
-
All three are beauteous, my favorite being THE FLY.
Who did the restorations?
Agree. They really did clean up nice.

Lovely Fly and Streetcar Ves

Some fixer uperers all fixed up...
Beautiful pieces, as always, Ves!

Agreed. An utterly ridiculous steal Matt! cool1
I've added this Dragonslayer quad, with artwork by Brian Bysouth, to the site (http://www.filmonpaper.com/) today. I'm also a fan of the US one sheet (http://www.filmonpaper.com/posters/dragonslayer-one-sheet-usa/) but this just edges it IMO.
(http://img9.imageshack.us/img9/7383/dragonslayerquad1.jpg)
I meant to comment on this outrageous quad earlier. I have a folded copy which I'm looking to upgrade. Wanna trade?
Still one of my favorite films from the 80s and easily one of my favorite quads ever.
Great acquisition, Ed.

I have an extra copy (or two) in mint condition if anyone is interested.

Yeah, there were only 2 there when I searched...that one and one going for about $300 so I passed on that one haha. But I did have to do some picture comparisons between what had sold on emovieposter in the past to make sure it was legit. It was, so I pounced. An extra $10 is a small price to pay for such an interesting piece.

It doesn't take a genius to figure out why the same few people always have homosexual references to a movie that has nothing to do with homosexuality. Most men probably didn't think anything of that scene in the movie, 50s, and probably wouldn't think of anything other than fighter jets on the poster... In case you guys didn't notice, there is a very attractive blonde woman on the poster, since you guys forgot to mention that. wynk

Well, we all interpret things differently.
I haven't stayed informed of the latest tabloids with Tom Cruise, so I won't comment on whether I think he is a "washed up psycho" or not. Care to inform me why you think he is a psycho?

HAHAHAHAAHAHA! More "Top Gun" discussion! LOVE IT!

I don't really have the desire to write the necessary dissertation but this will do as a small sample I suppose:

Two things that I now know about Tom Cruise: He's insane and gay. I wouldn't even mention the fact that he is gay if he (and his church) had not taken drastic measures to prove otherwise, marrying him to Kidman (who got a career out of it), trying with Cruz (who ran away) and ending with Holmes (who destroyed whatever spark she may have had).
Washed up, I don't know yet for sure. If Ghost Protocol doesn't perform, he will be done. With Brad Bird directing, I think he might be able to pull it off.
The one thing that I've always known is that he is an amazing actor. He managed to hold his own against Dustin Hoffman in Rain Man (playing the strait guy can be much harder than the cuckoo), Jack Nicholson in A Few Good Men and Paul Newman in The Color of Money, to name a few, did a great job on Born on the 4th of July, Jerry Maguire. Eyes Wide Shut, Magnolia, Minority Report, The Last Samurai, Collateral and Tropic Thunder.
Lately, his antics have taken over what has been an amazing career. It's a shame.

I`ll just throw some fuel in the fire....
Homoeroticism:
Never in my life have I seen a film so top-heavy with homoerotic longings and beefy men who look at each other with love, affection, and sexual delight. One could discuss these things for hours, but a partial list will suffice:
- The main characters are in the Navy, for fuck’s sake. Need I say more?
- Cougar has a panic attack that eerily resembles a shattering orgasm.
- After Iceman tells Maverick, “I’ll see you later,” he responds, “You can count on it.”
- Maverick actually walks into a ladies room on purpose.
- There are sunglasses and tight uniforms as far as the eye can see.
- We hear the line, “He’s on my tail, comin’ hard.”
- There are at least four scenes in a locker room, with no man wearing more than a towel.
- A furious commanding officer screams, “I want some butts!” I am not kidding.
- Has anyone taken a look at Goose’s moustache lately?
- Maverick is either showering or talking about showering. Remember, all of these showers involve seeing other men naked. He never showers alone.
- When Goose dies, Maverick mourns as if he has lost his lover. Wait a minute, he has.
- There is a volleyball game that just might be the most homoerotic scene in film history. Not only is there a song on the soundtrack that contains the lyrics “playing with the boys,” but each man is shirtless, sweaty and/or oiled, and there are enough high-fives and butt-slaps to last a lifetime. It is telling that Maverick is late for a “date” with a woman because of this very game.
- Maverick actually considers quitting his job over another man.
the rest is here (http://www.ruthlessreviews.com/1924/top-gun/ (http://www.ruthlessreviews.com/1924/top-gun/))

Agree with this. All those "hot dude" scenes were meant to appeal to female moviegoers who would normally shun an action/military movie. Looking for homosexuality in that movie or in its advertisements is the equivalent of looking for Jesus in your toast:
(http://mikesplace.freeserverhost.com/Gallimaufry/VirginMaryGrilledCheese/Jesus%20Christ%20Toast%20+%20Virgin%20Mary%20Grilled%20Cheese%20photo.jpg)
And by the way Kelly McGillis was pretty damn hot in that movie:

Aside from all that, the international/Aussie is WAY better than the US 1S, so it's the poster to get for this movie:

No, I'm still pretty much sticking to my list. Truth be told, I like posters from all around the world, but I really have an issue with size. To me, the Italian 2-Foglio is the perfect size. Bigger than the OS, a little smaller than the French 1-panel, easy to display, yet big enough to see.

Here's the UK quad for The Thing discussed on Charlie's 'Written Descriptions' thread... thought I'd post it here so I'm not cluttering Charlie's thread too much. As I mentioned to brude after a bit of google'ing and searching on ebay I was really surprised I couldn't find these around. Strange as it's a big budget film only just released, thought there'd be loads of them available.

If it makes it through the postal system ok, I've got the UK one sheet on the way...it looks like this:

Quite a cool poster, shame about the film from what I hear.
Sorry for taking your thread a bit OT, Charlie!
Tob, nice, 'scuse the reposting but I just checked the movie poster database and the "Binnenkort in de Bioscoop" version is listed as a Netherlands poster.
On another note, anyone noticed the difference between the quad and the Uk one sheet!? Look at the one sheet directly on the other side of the ice crack to the people, is it a bear? Tent? Boulder!? On all the versions listed on the movie poster database this doesn't appear, and it's not on the quad.
I wonder if it's a bit of fluff on top of the poster when the photo was taken!? I took the liberty of downloading the largest version you have Tob and it looks like it's on the poster!
-
Good spot! I didn't even notice that :) I'll post back some close ups when it arrives. It could just be a mark on the poster.

You're right, it is in a very similar style. I'd never seen this poster until a week or two ago. It didn't cost too much but unfortunately Zorba, the seller only had one. There appear to have been French, Spanish and German versions of it.

"There appear to have been French, Spanish and German versions of it."

I have a Raiders of the Lost Ark One Sheet you could have bought. However it is the 1981 original release and not the 1982 re-release which you picked up so I'm not sure if you prefered one over the other. Just curious what did you pay for this? I paid $125 for mine and I've been having trouble selling it.

However it is the 1981 original release and not the 1982 re-release which you picked up so I'm not sure if you prefered one over the other. Just curious what did you pay for this? I paid $125 for mine and I've been having trouble selling it.
~ Juli
I do prefer the look of the 82R over the original, the original is great, but outside of my proce range. I got that one for $34, so it was a good price.
I'm sure you'll sell your's, the original is iconic and someone will want it.

It's been slow lately for me due to one thing and another.
Here's a couple that turned up recently...

This one may interest Neo, it's a Tigon Double bill...
(http://i590.photobucket.com/albums/ss348/frankenstein31_photos/PICT0361-1.jpg)
These aren't posters, but new to me so.
Also picked this interesting letter up...
(http://i590.photobucket.com/albums/ss348/frankenstein31_photos/PICT0349-2.jpg)
And these are very interesting as it shows Bride and Son of Frankenstein still showing on a H Cert in 1949, and 1950 Also showing the Black Swan..... They are little brochures given away at the cinema so Patrons could plan the weeks trips to the cinema.

That's because it's a classic 80s poster and most collectors who want it already have it, Juli. You need to expend your audience and put it on Ebay. For sure, you'll sell it there.

Paul, Jungle Street is awesome!

So right Chris, I must not buy any modern posters....

Just got here today, I'm so excited. Got it in my price range, a little paper loss, but I really don't mind. Looks fabulous...now I just have to get it framed.

The two nibbles at the corners are great ;D

They are the reason I got it for $80, honestly I think it adds character to it. I've been after this one since I started collecting. I'm so excited I got my hands on it.

One of my favorite pieces of modern-day movie art.
Great score, Jax!

Nice Charlie. I need to get myself one of those... Some of the pictures are different from the Italian and French lobby sets.
How many items do you have on the movie now. I collect by title too, so I totally understand your obsession. When I love something, I want it all.

Well, me too. I have 8-10 films I buy everything that comes across (posters, heralds, pressbooks, ads, stills or wathever, from every country available) Fortunately for me, it`s 8-10 films almost no one cares about so the prices are usually affordable. :)

There was also a 30 page book (with pictures) sent to voting Academy Members. I have it here somewhere, but I don't know where. You should look for it. I'm sure it pops up on Ebay from time to time. I'll try to find it when I get a chance. I've also kept the Oscar campaigns of every movies in Daily Variety and the Hollywood Reporter for the past 25 years. I have a 3 feet tall pile of advertisement pages (no kidding). I have tons of stuff on Black Swan. I'll see if I have any doubles.

Fuck the posters. I'd kill for that 25-year history.

You're correct, of course. It's a UK movie released in 1958 as "Escapement" and released in the US in 1960 as "The Electronic Monster." I was unable to find any "Escapement" film posters from the original release.

Very cool poster.
Here's another that is interesting....and very reminiscent of this movie poster. Poor centaurs couldn't catch a break...

Brude, both great posters... that Troll Hunter one's really growing on me, I initially look at it and see a normal photo but then I start to realise the scale involved, quality image. Definitely makes me want to see the film.

Thanks, AP. I think you'll really like the movie. I understand there is a Hollywood remake (ugh) in the works.
The poster image is from a sequence that is an incredibly cool throwback to the monster movies of the past.
I absolutely loved it.

Jollyfine Troll Hunter, Ted. Me wants a poster of it, and must see the film now. (anyone know what the Quad looks like?)
What were we saying about poster's that make you want to see the film... :D
-
Both films are excellent and made with similar sensibilities (low-budget, big ambition). I have that Monsters one sheet and it's the best for the title IMO. The quad is pretty terrible.
-
There's more info. on the quad... will sort it in a bit. Here's the final version.
(http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh164/ianeastdulwich/troll-hunter-quad-posterfinal.jpg)
-
This is the original version, with the different style typography, credits and quotes.
Not sure if it's a recall or just a redesign... but it seems the US one sheet is an amalgamation of both quad designs, perspective and rough texture.

I am curious whether it will hold its value over the medium/long term. Harry Potter is a wildly successful book/film series and that is the coolest and rarest Harry Potter poster that has been and probably ever will be printed, so the odds are in your favor.

He shoots, he scores jawdrop
Fantastic haul sir, love both of them but the lenticular is a once in a lifetime opportunity. Not to be previous but are you going to get a bespoke frame for it? It would look stunning in a prominent place where everyone walks past, a real conversation piece.
Weirdly it makes me grin that I know the person (on the internet anyway) that won it! bed1
-
Some cool stuff over the last few pages.
On another note, anyone noticed the difference between the quad and the Uk one sheet!? Look at the one sheet directly on the other side of the ice crack to the people, is it a bear? Tent? Boulder!? On all the versions listed on the movie poster database this doesn't appear, and it's not on the quad.
I wonder if it's a bit of fluff on top of the poster when the photo was taken!? I took the liberty of downloading the largest version you have Tob and it looks like it's on the poster!
Just a bit of fluff unfortunately, UK One Sheet arrived this week and I think that must have just been a mark on the sellers photos. Quite disappointed it isn't a bear! :)

It's probably a good thing because there are no Polar Bears in Antarctica (the South Pole), they are in the Arctic (the North Pole). That's a cool poster, and a great movie.

Besides not having anything thats up to this boards standards
Just because some posters are extremely high prices does not make them better, IMO. Some of my favorite stuff is also my least expensive.
You have a lot of cool gear. That Big Lebowski is awesome.

Hi All
Just joined up, thanks to Mr Russell for sorting out the registration.
Been lurking around for a while but when I caught site of these I felt I needed to be nosey!
Can I ask how much you paid for the Harry Potter Lenticulars? Or is that sort of question a no-no?
I have two copies, one A3-ish size which has a frame around it and another a little under A4. Not sure what the A4 was used for, some have said it was for a book signing.
If anyone has any ideas I'd love to hear about it!
Thanks
(I was trying to upload my latest purchases, but I don't seem to be able to!)
-
Hi Under, welcome1
The Harry Potter lenticular went for $3,883.75 in one of the latest auctions from Herigate. :o
I think the smaller lenticular was part of a standee, maybe some HP specialist can say something more.
For uploading your stuff, the best would be to host the images in a photobucket account and then paste the link here...
Nice to see you coming out of the lurking!

I can't believe I have the same lenticular!
But the bigger one definitely came with the lamppost as I have it all in the attic (not the print).
Maybe I should start a thread in the valuation area as I don't wont to go off topic in here!

The Harry Potter lenticular that sold at Heritage was one sheet size, not A3, and was not used with a standee.

Thanks Mark.
Yeah I wouldn't have been that lucky. The mid-sized one is bigger than A2 now that I've looked again, probably A2.

Welcome to APF, Floorboards.
I really like that TYRANNOSAUR quad.
What's the deal on the SUPERMAN poster? I haven't seen that one before. Very cool.
-
It's a Thai poster.
Not sure what it was used for but it looks like a painting, that's why I bought it.
If you look at the Thai Superman poster a part of the image can be seen in the bottom right:

Hey there Under the Floorboards, welcome! I presume you are from the site Under the Floorboards? Nice to see another UK member here! :) I have the Tyrannosaur quad too (and the one sheet!), nice artwork by Dan McCarthy. Missed the film at the cinema unfortunately, but looking forward to the DVD, I'm a big fan of Paddy Considine.
Here is a nice article on it

Hi Tob
Yes that's the website, same person.
The I picked up both copies of Tyrannosaur too, even asked the artist if it was ever going to be a art print, he said there were no plans.
But it appears it has, see the All City Media site, apparently only given out to staff and the director.
Missed it on the cinema myself, but them's the joys of parenthood, no time to yourself!
Thanks for the welcome.

This showed up today, only 6 days after I won it off of French eBay. I know that others have slammed this poster, but :P to all of you. It has been on my list for some time and I won it for a LOT less than that 1 sheet.

This, IMO, is what is so wonderful about Belgians. Even re-issues like this, from the later 1940s, have superb artwork and color. Beautiful piece!

Nice to see you back Jeff, that Stan and Ollie poster is from the late 50's/early 60's, I have it myself. As you say they have some great artwork even for later release posters...

Hi Paul,
Thanks for the correction.
I just did a quick peruse on ebay.. and saw that one was listed and sold recently, being described a reissue from 1948... some buyer isn't gonna be happy.. :'(
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Laurel-Hardy-Them-Thar-Hills-Belgian-Poster-/350338715614
-
I researched this on emovieposter.com and they say probably 1940's for this re-issue of THEM THAR HILLS. Personally I am not sure when this was re-released. Do you have a link that shows when this was released? If so that would be of some great help for dating this poster down to the correct decade. I like the art work on this poster. I also have a few more Stan & Ollie Belgian posters that are great looking as well.
-
Belgians can be a huge pain in the ass to date!
-
I bought Several Belgian posters of the boys from a dealer in France who told me they were 5o's at the earliest, most likely early 60's. Even he stated they are very difficult to date, as the same image was used on many release's, so I alway's air on the side of caution. If they were 40's posters there's more of a chance they'd be printed on the back of old Maps, and the like. Which is great for dating 40's release posters.
This was the oldest looking one I picked up, but it is most definitely not 40's. late 50's a possibility...

Funny you should mention that, as I was recently looking to find a copy to rent. Just found this copy (http://www.amazon.com/Psychotronica-Vol-Mermaids-Tiburon-Bewitched/dp/B00120TJF4) on Amazon and may buy it, since I don't watch illegal downloads of movies on the internet. Here's a 2 minute clip (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c4-Rv0P0Mag&oref=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com%2Furl%3Furl%3Dhttp%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%253Fv%253Dc4-Rv0P0Mag%26rct%3Dj%26sa%3DX%26ei%3DCy3VTpGLN9LLtgf-raC4Ag%26ved%3D0CFwQuAIwCQ%26q%3Dmermaids%2Bof%2Btiburon%2B%26usg%3DAFQjCNF1iPD_nrklX4J150ZSfGuh8rNgrA) of the first scene though, and supposedly it can be rented via the link below it. I read one review that said something like "it's the only real mermaid movie...where mermaids don't have clam shells etc.", which likely indicates the mermaids are depicted how real ones are naturally. wynk

This has to be one of the best I've seen for the Kill Bill series.

The Aussie one sheet for Fast Times at Ridgemont High is another winner.

Aussie Tales From the Darkside, gotta check out this film sometime.

A Pretty Woman daybill. If someone asked me a few years ago, I would've told 'em that this was an epic win since the one sheets sell for $550.00. rofl1

Finally a Summer School daybill, another classic from the 80s.

After finishing my work, went swimming in what seemed to be Arctic waters (although it's probably warm compared to a lot of other places in the world), I agree with part of this tagline. Can't wait 'til Summer.

Lovin that B2 for 'They Live' ed, great design.
I won't bore everyone with everything that's been turning up, but the four below were a bit of a surprise, I've bought quite a lot of posters from a guy on ebay and occasionally he throws in a freebie or two. These came (free!) with the last poster I got from him, they're single sided character posters for the 'Deathly Hallows' Prt1. I've never seen these as normal posters (apart from really dodgy reprints on ebay), I've only ever seen them in the 4'x6' (bus stop) format.
They're 22.25" x 37.5" (approx) with a white strip at the top and bottom on quality medium weight glossy stock. All the logos and text are present, printed perfectly and pin sharp (HEYDAY, PG-13 rating box, 'EXPERIENCE IT IN IMAX', WWW.HARRYPOTTER.COM, JK Rowling copyright info. and the Warner Bros. logo and copyright info.).
I'm clueless!

Just realized I hadn't bought a poster since the 20th of November. jawdrop With Thanksgiving and having to watch, in person, the Aggies lose the "Forever" game to tu, I must have just been off my game...
Kinda love this poster; couldn't pass it up. Not very valuable, but I can't figure why with the image. Beautiful nude woman with ponytail plus a saber?? Count me in... Never seen the movie though; guess it sucked.

I couldn't disagree more. I think it is the lamest (for lack of better word) poster they could have come up with. The most uninspired collage. When I think they could have asked Drew to come up with a new design, to keep up with the tradition, instead of this... whatever this is. What kills me most is that I'll have to get it at some point... You know, the completist bullshit.

Brian
House is bought; closed yesterday. She only cut my budget in half. Plus most of the stuff I've picked up have been killer deals. For the three (Madame, Patton, and Tall Dark) I only dropped $120... But as far as the rest of the month (except a deal with my local on Sat; he found me a Mad Max B2.), I'm done thanks to Mel... Need to move anyways. I may have scored two four section flat files from the office; they were going to scrap them, so I chimed in. So that would be 40 drawers plus the 5 drawer I have now; should keep me for a while. Hope that deal goes through...
-
I'm done thanks to Mel...
When I won this, Troy came to mind, I wanted to shout: "Is there no one else? Is there is no one else?" Yeah baby! What a way to end the year!

Tut, tut, Thierry.....
(http://i691.photobucket.com/albums/vv275/Forty_Candles/S2-1.png) (http://www.jackgallery.com/aboutproduct.php)
-
Okay, but still a reprint to me. And I still don't get it. No matter how nice the print job is, it is a reprint.
-
Are the S2's different in anyway to the original ie is there added somewhere "Printed by S2"
-
I don't think they're identified but they are "recreations" (i.e. redrawn from scratch) and not perfect replicas. For Attack of the 50 Foot Woman, I think the original (right) is superior but the S2 is excellent too:
(http://i691.photobucket.com/albums/vv275/Forty_Candles/Attack.jpg)
-
Thierry, they are like the French posters that say "d'apres...".
An artist took a high quality print of the original and then recreates it, not by reproducing it, but by re-drawing it.
So if you look at the original and the S2, they are NOT "the same", but they are of course very similar.
And because they are printed on a 100+ year old press, they are TRUE stone lithos.
They honestly look much better in person, just as a great 1930s stone litho poster looks better in person than in a digital image.
When I had the rare style of "The Devil is a Woman" that the printer had taken unfolded off the press in 1935 and stored it ever since, it was night and day looking at the poster against looking at a reproduced image of it, and THAT was a big part of why it sold for $57,000!
You need to get a look at one of these S2s in person to better understand the appeal.

Thanks Bruce. Okay, it's a nice recreation. Not my thing, though. But a lot of things are not my things... like Republicans... Not my things at all.

I hate the regular Raiders one sheet, is this one an International version?
EDIT: It appears to be a Re-release from 1982. I still like it more!
-
Yes it is the re-release. I like this one better then the original.

some nice posters for December but a definite lack of Quads!
heres a few ive received over the last 2 months to balance things out a little
Krakatoa - the picture doesnt really do the poster justice - looks great
(http://i746.photobucket.com/albums/xx107/m154cath/UK%20QUADS/014.jpg)
Blue Max - thought about buying the French version but then this became available
(http://i746.photobucket.com/albums/xx107/m154cath/UK%20QUADS/016.jpg)
Hombre - a few smudges but looks great
(http://i746.photobucket.com/albums/xx107/m154cath/UK%20QUADS/017.jpg)
Robin Hood - never seen before & then 2 pop up on ebay within 2 weeks of each other - really nice art
(http://i746.photobucket.com/albums/xx107/m154cath/UK%20QUADS/019.jpg)
Westworld - been after this for ages & finally bagged one - 1 more off the list!
(http://i746.photobucket.com/albums/xx107/m154cath/UK%20QUADS/006-2.jpg)
Fathom - only arrived yesterday but what a beauty - only really bought it as i lost out on a River Kwai poster i was gutted to lose - next time!
(http://i746.photobucket.com/albums/xx107/m154cath/UK%20QUADS/001-1.jpg)
West Side Story - a real beauty & 1 of the wifes favourite films - hopefully back from the framers for Xmas
(http://i746.photobucket.com/albums/xx107/m154cath/UK%20QUADS/026.jpg)
Moon Zero two - another poster ive been after & it certainly doesnt disappoint
(http://i746.photobucket.com/albums/xx107/m154cath/UK%20QUADS/002-2.jpg)
Rolling Stones - not even a fan but quite liked the "art" & for a fiver, why not!
(http://i746.photobucket.com/albums/xx107/m154cath/UK%20QUADS/005-2.jpg)
Star Wars - agreed probably not the best poster youll ever see but certinly better than the 1 sheet
(http://i746.photobucket.com/albums/xx107/m154cath/UK%20QUADS/002-1.jpg)
&,finally, a couple i picked up from emovie who i must thank again for supplying sufficient packaging for all my xmas wrapping needs!

Sweet Randy!

Nice selection of Quads Mike, I was watching 6 of those and bid on two of them... Unfortunately I have a couple of other deals going on so couldn't bid much. Too many posters, not enough money...Any donations to the Quad fund graciously received... :)
Randy, that is excellent, as I say there just isn't enough on the Boy's posted on here. Keep up the good work. thumbup

Finally a poster I deem worthy of showing you guys...
"Le Diable au Corps" ("Devil in the Flesh," 1947) by Claude Autant-Lara, artwork by René Lefebvre. The movie, and its poster, were extremely controversial in the post-war era.

Very nice Thierry!

Yes, that's the words, Very nice indeed...

Very nice T.

Got this from my local dealer. He supposedly has a huge stash of Japanese material waiting to be gone through. He said he has a ton of bond stuff if anybody wants me to keep an eye out.
(http://www.abideposters.com/apf_junk/122011/mmjap.jpg)
No discipline. Got a refund on the Tall Dark Stranger and just applied it to this beauty, closed at a decent price too. At least I think I won it... Probably won't get it until next year though...

I need a Dr. No and Thunderball original releases. Also a Hustler if they have stuff back that far. Or, they can send me the stash, I'll go through it and send them back what I don't want :)

Beg to differ, Armin. That is a stunner.
What year? The colors are banging like new.
-
Hi Ted!
That's a 1954 release in the US, probably a year or two later in Japan.
And yes the colours are amazing. Must have been locked away in someone's closet for decades.

When Women Had Tails (1970 SSF US 1S):
Funny poster but maybe not such a great movie. One reviewer wrote: "I readily admit that I watch a lot of really bad movies. But there are very few that I can think of that are quite as bad as When Women Had Tails. It's a stinker of epic proportions."

I haven't bought much of late, but picked these two up recently...
This is, I think the more scarce Quad. Well I personally have seen
less of this than the Mid-riff version...Sorry for the poor pic, Ill do
another at some point.
(http://i590.photobucket.com/albums/ss348/frankenstein31_photos/PICT0441-1.jpg)
And this is even more scarce, it's a Double Crown teaser....
(http://i590.photobucket.com/albums/ss348/frankenstein31_photos/PICT0440-2.jpg)

Nice find Paul..excellent condition..
I always remember the midriff version...but you want this,don`t you?

You know after looking at those two, I think that ABC version is a re-release....
I'd still have it though... 8)

Just got this one, I liked this style much better than the close up of his chest that had a couple variences.

Could anyone please tell me if im mistaken in my thoughts reagrds the above mentioned poster..
I seem to remember a hot chick riding black and white style on a motorbike,with her cleaveage and ahem helmet printed?
Anyone follow my thoughts?
Stew
-
That's the one I want. And perhaps you'll recall Olivia Newton John in leather pants singing You're The One That I Want....
-
(http://i590.photobucket.com/albums/ss348/frankenstein31_photos/PICT0441-1.jpg)
While I have a weakness for cleavage, plunging zippers and pulse-quickening shadows, I like this style best.
Maybe it's the illusion of motion that the artist captured in the trees....very cool posters, Paul.
Do you also own that 'pelvis' quad?
-
Yes Ted, I've had that one for a while, but just got the other two. All three are quite scarce, so quite pleased getting the other two.

a 15 x 40 Australian daybill, such a cool poster
(http://i403.photobucket.com/albums/pp111/ehholden/001-1.jpg)
Chief Little Wolf, a native American professional wrestler and showman became one of the greatest heroes of Australian wrestling. The world heavyweight champion first wrestled in Australia in 1937 and returned several times becoming popular in the 1940s. He married an Australian and settled in Australia in the 1950s. He toured Australia performing trick horse-riding, told stories about the Navajo culture, displayed his wrestling holds and did extensive work for charity. In the Australian wrestling ring, he fought more than a 100 individual wrestlers in over 1,000 matches.

Chief Little Wolf...that is too cool.
The illustration and colors are stunning.
Great addition to your collection!

I just got a couple of big Frenchies to add to my Sweeney Todd collection. I was going to post just the new ones but as I don't have a website I like to keep my pics in a complete document so I can see all images for a title at once. I thought I'd post this instead. I generally keep an untouched pic of the poster for condition reference and then tidy it up and put it in a page like this. I like to think they'll go in an imaginary book which I'll never have time to design or print...

Great colours and that one Paul and Matias your Crocs and Gorillas are fearsome...
-
Nice ST collection.
I wonder, loooking at the display of posters there, whether they should all be grouped according to similar styles to compare more easily what they have done to adjust.
I can't see too clearlym but I am guesing they may be ordered according to country and film/dvd release. But it doesn't offer a fung shui approach to the display.
I only offer this as I collate the Bond posters according to styles for just such comparison.

Thanks Simes, the problem I have is when adding new posters to the layout. At the moment I have theatrical posters first followed by DVD/Video. I usually start with US then UK and any other country after that. The only rule that I absolutely stick to is that every poster is photographed by myself rather than stock or sellers photos. I'm amazed at how many stock images are used by sellers that don't represent the poster being sold.
-
I figure with all the action taking place on the US 1-sheets that I should go "origin" with The Artist. Found it this morning BIN... Can't wait to see the movie based on T's recommendation and it just this kind of film that wins awards...

I've never seen those Girl on Motorcycle posters before & the Circus poster looks fantastic.

Thanks Mike, I usually get the 63 bus......... ;)
The most over looked is the Double Crown of those
Girl on a Motorcycle, yet it's the most scarce!! and the only
one I've ever seen...
I did think people who knew would comment on it... maybe
it's because most on here collect new stuff :-\

Sorry there Paul, this GenX has never seen the movie or seen these posters. It's a sweet poster!
-
Haha, you young fellows, and your double sided, and rolled posters.... ;)
Which reminds me, I need to pick up some Tintin posters...
-
Well, Paul, I'll say it. Those NULs are spectacular, I didn't even know there was another version of the quad, let alone seen one, and I've been doing this awhile too. The DC as well.
Which #63 bus do you usually get on...? ;)

I've never seen that DC before Paul - it's great. I have the Style B quad with Marian Faithfull riding the motorbike (without the ABC logo fortunately) and am on the lookout for the Style A. I have some US paper as well but much prefer the English artwork for this title.

Wow, first-release Universal serial paper is extremely hard to find.
I imagine these babies came out in '37 or shortly thereafter in Argentina France?
(Ooops...I'm so used to you specializing in Argentine paper)
They are awesome, Matias....what size are they?

No, but I think the poster was a second printing (for ABC) rather than for a later re-release.

Awesome HORROR OF DRACULA card, Chris.
Now TRAPPED...isn't that also known as ATTACK OF THE 15 FOOT WOMAN? wynk
Looks like she's about to bite Lloyd's hand clean off...wow, what a big mouth...

Not me Mel, I've had that version for many years , but it's nice to know the price. I paid around that just minus the two nought.... ;) ;)
I wouldn't take her prices as a definitive guide, Paul.
She's pretty expensive, and from a reliable source, she is a very, very wealthy lady who isn't really that bothered whether or not her items sell.
If she has it for £1500.00, then you're probably looking more at <£1000.00.

I sooo caved on buying these two moderns. Being an engineer I find them so cool; and so relatively cheap!

I didn't realise that Exit Through the Gift Shop design came in quad format - I assume this is a rarity?

As far as I know... and that's not a lot, these turned up at the Gallery that sells Banksy's prints (Pictures on Walls) on Friday.
When I ambled into the gallery this afternoon I asked what the score was and they said they'd been printed for the release but then he went off the image... now he's changed his mind! So I'm assuming they're selling the complete run of them as they were never used in Cinemas.
They're double sided quads (exactly 40"x30"), printed on quality thick uncoated stock and in pristine nick!
If anyone wants the contact details for POW pm me and I'll pass them on... don't want to post their email address here in case of spam sandwiches bots!

I don't Adam, I have my own price guide with regard to every poster. I just think it's a wheez when people put stupid prices on posters I have paid peanuts for... ;D
My favourite is still that King Kong Escapes for £1,000,000 as I have two......unfortunately he doesn't want another for the bargain price of £500,000 I said he could have it for.... ;)

Cashback is a splendid movie.
It is on LoveFilm as a streamed movie.
Very quirky.

Just found these photos I took as I was leaving Banksy's pop-down cinema called 'Lambeth Palace' underneath Waterloo station. This was before the official premier evening for the film and shows he was thinking of using it, but it was just a one off as I think it was mounted on foamcore and nailed to the wall, plus there's the additional logos and different rating.
(http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh164/ianeastdulwich/8-1.jpg)
(http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh164/ianeastdulwich/9-1.jpg)
Also noticed it's a different photo on the quad and the colours are more muted compared to the one off foamcore version and the US/Canadian one sheets. He's facing forward and in a different position against the wall.
(http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh164/ianeastdulwich/1ETTGSUS1sSS_DSComparisonsizecolour.jpg)
Bet you lot wish I'd never found another poster for the film!

At a loss to appreciate the posters or the films?
Well, since I collect posters mainly because of the films (versus very few for the art) and since I simply haven't seen them; both. Its kind of convoluted up in my head on whether to by for art, film, or value. I battle it all the time. But I think seeing the film is a kindle for interest. I've never seen Dracula or Frankenstein (Movie gods may strike me down). I will have to bite the bullet and put them in the queue...
I guess I can appreciate the art for that art. But I am at a loss to comment on how great they are otherwise.
Oh how awesome that is really rare..
or
Man I've been wanting one of those asshole!
or
Man so and so really captures so and so well...
Else, I tend to tie the scene of a film or the actors to the overall excitement of the poster. So if I've not seen it, I come up mute...

That's a great one Matias!

Got these a few days ago. I've bought 3 of this version - the first was framed and given to the woman who cuts my hair since she has the skills of a person with scissors as hands, the second for myself but realized it is not in good condition, the third (this one) and it's in pretty darn good nick.
(http://i766.photobucket.com/albums/xx303/NeoLoco80/DSC01445.jpg)
The seller made a miniature sticker of it to put on the sleeve. :-\
(http://i766.photobucket.com/albums/xx303/NeoLoco80/DSC01446.jpg)
Japanese B2 for one of my favorites - Twelve Monkeys. Probably the best one for the film IMHO. Glad I finally found one in good condition.

I don't collect video posters, but if I did, I'd want that Scissorhands for sure. I wish they had used it theatrically. I think it's much better than any of these:

Thanks fellas.
Mr.Brie, why don't you acquire video gear? There seems to be a negative stigma attached to video stuff, as they mostly command much lower prices, but there are a few that I think most would agree are better than the theatricals. Is it with your completest missions that acquiring a few would be like opening Pandora's box?
-
No, no stigma. I collect movie posters... and more recently numbered prints. Except for a few exceptions (Scissorhands and Silence of the Lambs come to mind) video posters are usually smaller, replicate the theatrical design, single sided and of lesser quality. They just don't interest me.

Yes Charlie, I dress in drag while taking pics of my posters ;D (it`s actually a coworker of mine...)

It`s definitely MY best acquisition of the year, but I`ve seen a lot of other good shit around here ;)

Thanks to you too Paul and Chris!
And Neo, that I love that scissorhands.. clap
I will someday buy more stuff for this movie.
Depp`s character, IMO, is one of the last -and better- classic monsters on screen...

This interesting poster recently came to my attention, I've not seen another one before, and lucky for me it's safely spending Christmas at Holiday's before winging it's way over to the UK to start my 2012 off with a bang. Bit of a story to it but that can wait for another time, I'd just like to thank Holiday for his help in the acquisition(s!) ;)
This and the 'Exit...' quad I just got caps off a great year for me ;D
Have a great Christmas and a quality New Year everyone, it's been a pleasure to be part of the forum.

Nice Scissorhands, and in that spirit, I got these the other day. French bus shelters (I think) Quite hard to find in rolled condition.

Although the artwork is similar to the Australian 1-Sheets and the US bus shelters it's subtly different...
(http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c102/skyjackers/FANBC.jpg)
I'd have to say this is my favourite Edward Scissorhands poster, and it's a video poster too.

Picked this up recently, it's a bit worse for wear but it was cheap.

And I am particularly pleased others can appreciate the "George" poster as much as I do - will definitely post a pic once I manage to get it framed

Out of interest, where do you get your new US One Sheets from, Skyjackers? You're UK based, right? Any decent suppliers you recommend? Or just ebay.com?
-
Thanks guys, looking forward to both films too! Yes I am in the UK. Dale is an excellent source for 1-sheets on this board but I got both of these from ebay. My other option for posters has traditionally been The Cinema Store in London, a bit pricey sometimes though.
