Nice pickups Matt and of course thanks so much for keeping me in mind!

Very nice Matt, has Bardot's leg been covered up a bit?

The Clockwork Orange came in that box of film Memorabilia, it does have the M.A.P.S. logo on the bottom right, though I did wonder about it, thinking it's just one of those things!!

Thanks Paul, not sure what you mean about Bardot's leg?

Yeah saw the MAPS logo and I'm just as puzzled as you are.

I'm a complete novice when it comes to Daybills, please excuse my ignorance but is the Daybill format exclusive to Australia?

I think I may have just purchased my first db, not entirely sure if it's legit or not as I've never seen one before, with my glass half full head on I'm presuming it's a commercial print (dvd/soundtrack or something). This is the sellers image, will post a better photo once it arrives (fingers crossed!).

I found this with them, Any idea's anyone. It's U.K. looking at the Daily Mirror quote.
Sorry to muddy up the Daybill thread with it, but just curious as to it's origin!!


Great daybills, Paul.
What size is this Evil Dead II?
Cool image.

Just a note Re-Bardots legs..on the German Style A, the artist gave her thigh muscles big enough to pull a Tractor.

Just Between her jacket and thigh Matt, there seems to be a dark area for no reason! Maybe I just like to see more thigh ;D

That Clockwork Orange also says, "Roadshow release" !!


Ted, the Evil Dead 2 poster is 36 1/2" x 13" !!

I wonder if that's a "stock" daybill, like the exploitation guys would use here in the States?  Just a generic poster that they'd print the title of whatever they were showing onto.

Peter is correct. I have seen other such stock daybills, but those were from the 1940s and 1950s. They would be used by theaters who couldn't get a poster for some reason, so these could be printed in a hurry locally, and fill in in a pinch.

some more Dandy Daybills.

I love Seafaring things, and this is a beauty...


Not my favourite Polanski film by a long shot, in fact I possibly like the poster/s more than the movie (I like it, but he is one of my favourite directors, and I think its one of his lesser films - sacrilege I am sure)


Rasputin was my hero as a kid, my Grandmother thought it was strange that a 10 year old had a framed photo of him on his wall....


In my top 5 films of ALL TIME...


A gift to me from someone who knows my secret about Doris...


My favourite Aussie film...


Always loved the art on this one..

What beautiful examples, Ves.. amazing.. and shows daybills done at a time when attention to detail and capturing the likenesses of the actors was of key importance, during the time of the stone litho process. Kudos to your collection!   happy1 happy1
