My NEW! Thai poster collection....
« on: April 24, 2017, 07:41:45 AM »
Hey! guys,

I thought I'd make a separate post for these posters in my collection as they are so different from what I normally buy (UK quads/one sheets), so anyway I hope you like them all or at least some of them ;) do let me know what you think! cheers

Thanks! GoGo, :) Yes, I agree many of the Thai posters are very  8) some really great looking and unique artwork.

I'm very pleased I've found out about them and have been able to make a nice start to the collection thumbsup.gif

Hey! Jeff,

I'm pretty sure all but one of these are by the amazing Thai artist Tongdee Panumas.

Only "A Nightmare on Elm Street 2" is by a different artist, and that artist is known as Kwow, I also really like the artwork on this one, so clearly there are a lot of talented artists in Thailand, no doubt about it.

Here's how the large First Blood Thai poster looks when framed, pretty nice I think :)

Tongdee does have a certain and brilliant style, thats for sure, John. And if all but one are done by him, then Im guessing they are all signed somewhere on the poster, too? The couple I have by him are, it must be something he always does.

And that First Blood looks very sweet in that frame, too.  thumbup

Yes, I'm pretty sure all the posters shown here are signed Jeff, even ANOES2 is signed by the artist, so it may just be a thing in Thailand in general that most artists put a signature on their work.

Appreciate the thumbs-up on the framed First Blood, I'm very happy with it. ;D

Very true. Signing the original, painted work totally makesa sense to me, too.

And too bad that signing one's work wasnt more general practice, especially here in the US. But that's where the digging around searching for that info comes into play.

I don't normally post pictures of the same poster twice, but, IMO when framed some of these posters look so much better that I'd like to share, I only got these frames today! and they were super cheap, but, the posters look truly fantastic in them, hope you all like them :)

Nice frames, John. Are the backing boards acid free, do you know?

As far as I know they are safe to use Jeff and for things (posters etc.) of this type, they are in a safe place not near any cold/damp and away from sunlight, so I'm pretty confident the posters will be well looked after in these frames, fingers crossed.

Thanks, John.

I was more curious about the construction materials of the frame: the backing boards, and hoping it isnt regular cardboard and (I forgot to ask) if the plexi was the UV protective type?
