I don't think Bruce minds if you host them yourself. If I remember he had clarified this at one time... I see you linked it directly from emovieposter.com
-
Ah, ok. Thanks for that info.
I will correct the links as soon as I can.
-
Actually, judicious "hotlinking" on this forum only is OK.
But it only takes a few seconds to download them!
-
Apologies, Bruce. Won't happen again.
Unfortunately, I don't seem to be able to modify my original post to remove the links. Sorry.

Here is a couple of more, not too often seen, designs to add to your list Pratsch, if you like them. If not, thats cool too but I figured I would make you aware if you had not seen them before. I have them, but not for sale (sorry).

Japanese B1 -- not sure if the B2 has the same design. There is another Japanese design that I know comes in the B2 size. Maybe one of our resident Japanese collectors (Holiday, Dale, etc) can chime in with the answer.

I was not aware of those! Wow, very cool. Thanks!
-
Check Holiday's collection he has a couple Neverending Story posters from all over the world. The are a couple Japanese B2's, polish, east german, a couple german posters. I am not sure if he has a B1 I did not look that far through them. Here is the link to Holiday's collection. I hope he doesn't mind.
http://www.mypostercollection.com/
He has a ton of nice pieces in his collection.
-
The Neverending Story is one of my favorite 80s movies, and I agree, Holiday's collection on that title and in general is one of the best there is. Good luck finding any of the posters he has up there.

Thanks for the link rdavey. I'll check them out.
The Neverending Story is also one of my favorites, T. The book is a great read as well. At this rate I'm hoping to just be able to find one of the ones I posted above (in my price range).

Be patient, and you should be able to. Check Ebay regularly, avoid dealers, as long as you don't rush, you will find them at a reasonable price.

Agreed. Besides, part of the thrill of collecting is the hunt, no?
Most of my ebay purchases are from your average joe. I always do my homework when necessary, so I'm pretty confident in my purchases (the exception was a Harry Potter & The Sorcerer's Stone from MovieGoods back when the movie came out. That was a fail - inkjet special.)
Thanks for the advice.

That is great advice. I know when I first started collecting I did not have the patience that I do now. I would buy something thinking I wouldn't get it for cheaper and then what do you know I see it for less. But I guess that is part of the hobby. If you can't find one on eBay then just wait for Bruce's auctions they tend to pop up on there from time to time. But I wouldn't pay to much for this poster. If you can hold out you should be able to pick one up in your price range. Good Luck to you. Great movie and great book by the way. I think I will have to re-read the book again I have it packed away somewhere lol.
-
You can see here how some people did SO MUCH better than others by trying over and over until they got one very cheap!

Please ignore the comment "avoid dealers". T lives in a different world to the rest, the fact is he is descended from a centuries old family of 'dealers' aka Art gallery owners, people who made money selling other people's art.
'Dealers' aren't the bogey man, 'dealers' are unlikely to pass on a venereal disease and many 'dealers' are avid collectors so are happy to discuss your habit with you and in many cases help advise you too. Sure, there are scoundrels out there (as there are is in in every walk of life) but the fact you are here (in this forum) will help further your education on who/what/where and when.
A dealer (whether he be full time or part time) has spent money buying the poster (costs that may include postage getting it, petrol picking it up, perhaps even Post Office box fees), they will then spend time and money advertising it (if they have their own website there are on going expenses), they also pay for the packaging, take it to the PO etc to then get it to you.
A dealer has the poster you are looking for, there is no waiting, no auction bidding war and generally no problems with their reputation (again, use this forum and other research) - you want the poster, you buy the poster you get the poster, the maths is the only thing you generally need worry about.
So sure, do your research and you should be good no matter where or from whom you buy from.
BTW - by definition a 'dealer' is someone who buys, sells AND/OR trades in a commodity - that probably makes almost everyone here (including T) a 'dealer' in some form or other
-
Hah, I know. I mean I buy almost exclusively from the most well known dealer out there. I think he goes by tloceposters.
laugh1 Of course, I am kidding. ;)
Not sure if T meant it literally or figuratively, but the way I took it was to avoid over-priced items just to 'buy it now' in a rush from unscrupulous sellers, not to actually avoid an entire class of sellers. But maybe he did mean it the other way. Either way, patience will allow you to discover the market for an item and eventually find one that's just the right price, imho. I understand there is overhead for some sellers, and for others not so much. But in the end, like you said, it's the numbers that matter. I mean, I'm willing to spend more on an actual poster if the overall price (including shipping, taxes, etc) is less. Only makes sense, no?
And of course there are the slick-talking 'used car' dealers out there, but that's why I take my time. So far I've been very happy with the sellers I've dealt with and I've been on ebay since '99 (granted there was a lull in there, but still).
'dealers' are unlikely to pass on a venereal disease
Damn, if I ever catch a VD from a poster, I'm calling it quits.

This is probably one of the smartest comments I have read in quite some time. Of course, I do buy from some dealers, but only after I've done scrupulous research and I know I will not be able to buy it somewhere else for less. There is no reason to spend any more money than you have to. I do my own research, I don't want anyone else to do it for me, and as a result, I pay less.

Thanks for the kinds words. It's one of my favorite movies too, and I pick up the posters when they are around. I don't think I've ever seen a B1, though.

Cool video, Brude! Thanks.
If you like this movie and you like movie soundtracks, check out the OST by Klaus Doldinger. He did the original score for the non-Americanized version. Very good. (Hopefully this link takes you to the playlist: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TSxYtW_nNZg&list=UUh9jvKizUBOzPr4v3FnEbew)
This movie is actually one of many that I listen to while I work. Others include: Donnie Darko, Blade Runner, The Goonies, Sunshine, Moon, The Fountain, Drive, Grosse Pointe Blank, and others. I've seen these movies so many times I know all the scenes. Also, they all have good emotion invoking soundtracks (imho), so it makes for some good listening. It's like listening to music+.
Favorite part of The Neverending Story (movie) is when Atreu goes back to the Childlike Empress and she starts to explain the earthling and breaks not only the 4th wall in the book, but the 4th wall in the movie. Always gives me chills. :) Just so cool.

The international one sheet can be considered bonus at this point. ;D
Patience and perseverance is all it takes (and money ;) ).

And So right, Mike. That's what true collecting is really all about and not demanding that it be had yesterday.

Nice quad, Mike. The best design on Neverending Story for sure.
Where did you end up finding it? Not a dealer, I hope.

I'm surprised you had problems finding the Quad Mike, but glad you now have one.
It's making me thing I should pick one up.....See what this forum does...... dontknow.gif

Nope, not a dealer. 'Twas a craigslist find, as was the flat file.

Yeah, I was surprised as well, but it all eventually worked out.
I'd be surprised if you didn't already have one in your collection! Aren't you the quad king??? ;)

R u going to get all the Neverending Story posters?
T
-
These were the 3 I was most interested in obtaining. I'll still be on the lookout for the international one sheet for sure. Definitely like that one as well.
Schan had posted the Romanian and Japanese versions earlier in the thread and I've come across the Italian version as well. With so many other posters yet to acquire, though, I'll probably put the funds to use elsewhere (unless I was to find them dirt cheap).

Here are a few I have for future reference. There are more.

Yikes!!! I had no idea there were that many variations for this movie! That's actually really cool. Thanks so much for compiling that.
Your favorite, that's the Polish version, correct? They always have extremely interesting artwork.
Do you have Mark Englert's 'The Ancient One' print? (I'm too lazy to check your site. Sorry.)

No, it's the Czech by Sona Vorlícková. That's why you should check my website more often. They're all there... and more ;)
And no, I don't like the Englert.
