I'm here too!
« on: February 02, 2017, 02:52:42 PM »
Hi everyone,
I'm newbie but very pleased to be joined to this wonderful forum.

I'm Italian, and my main occupation (job) is Graphic and Web design, but I'm also very enthusiast of cinema and (of course) a fan of the movie posters.

I'm sure can find here, from you experts, the help and answers to some questions about  the posters' graphic art.

See you around...  ;)

 welcome1, alvin68 and enjoy the forum.

What types of movies/genres do you like to collect? How many posters do you have, at this point.

Unfortunately I do not own original posters, Jeff. For now, I especially like collecting "reproductions" (I hope I don't come immediately driven away by the forum for this reason...  imbecile.gif )
My favorite genres are sci-fi and horror movies of the '50s and' 70s.

Greetings alvin68! Welcome to the forum.  Repros are a economical way to get the images for the posters you want..NOTHING wrong with that. However, i'm sure we will eventually convince you to come over to the dark side and you'll start wanting REAL, vintage original one sheets...Ha! It's an addiction. Glad you are here to share in it.
