Been eyeballing this one for years, the exchange rate, a wonderful discount by the seller, and some Christmas cash finally made it happen.  A 1907 horizontal g-r-a-n-d-e for La Terroriste:


Another Swedish W.C. Fields, 1934's Six of a Kind:

I can see the art is different and well done but not something I would display on a wall. Congratulations obtaining your desired poster.

Never heard of the series, but I like the visuals.  I this kinda like the German Bond, with an American FBI agent?  Cool posters.  Instant re-release, or just 1,2,3,4,5... throughout the 60s?

Far as a I know released like this but the numbers make me think otherwise. I'll think and find out.
Thanks. And yeah they are fun films.  Set in america but shot in Germany. :)

La terroriste is great Peter, must look really impressive with the large size...and no folds to boot!

as per usual, plodding along picking up.... well just stuff :)
got this today


french 2000s RR which i have been looking for, for a while. BUT not sure if anyone else has one, but the print is SUPER soft focus. so much so it looks like a boot? im guessing it isn't though as the printer info for this RR is nice and sharp. the actual logo for the movie just looks like a blob of fudge to me?? if anyone else has one i would be interested to know if its the same as mine?


also some other stuff i got in the recent past.




this was also something i never thought i would get round to finding for a good price. super cheap and in GREAT condition!
I don't know much, but i do know what my eyes are telling me!

Looks okay to me.  What happened is that they re-released the movie, but it was a small re-release and they didn't take the time to photoshop what looks like an original set photograph.  Who cares if it's out of focus, it's not meant for collectors and you get the point.  Someone with more money would have probably made it look better, but it doesn't really matter for a 10 theater re-release.

Agreed!  What size... Maybe a half grande (31x47)?  Is it first release?  Super cool regardless.

The fight is not being won, best to go with the flow, even if makes little logical sense. When I hear of 'apple' I think of a Electronics company not the round fruit of a tree of the rose family, which typically has thin green or red skin and crisp flesh.

It is a specific size of food order, especially related to mexican food such as nachos or burritos.

That artwork caught my eye also, Tob.
I believe it is a 1988 COO RR poster for The Wild Swans, a 1959 Soviet-animated version of the Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale about a princess whose brothers are turned into swans by their evil stepmother.
There is a dubbed version on Youtube:
