The Art of the B-Movie Poster
« on: September 29, 2016, 04:25:23 PM »
This book, by Adam Newell, Pete Tombs & Kim Newman, and to be released on Oct. 10th, thru Amazon, looks to be a pretty good read with lots of full color photos:

Damn fine looking book there, Jeff.
Would be nice to see some APF members put out books like these.

I agree Ted.

There are a slew of members here that could put out fantastic works of their collections. No doubt about it.

A good lawyer should be able to sort out any/all copyright issues.

Speaking of which, APF member Crowzilla (Sean) is a collector who has put out at lest one book of movie poster images -- and he is a lawyer.  Maybe he can lay out the steps and costs (if any) of producing a book with images.

It is a well presented book and has a ton of images, just a little too B-movie for me :)  I like the more mainstream stuff.
