Dominic's Film & Entertainment auction on June 16 at 11am UK time:

Some original movie poster artwork being sold:
   
Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, dir. Steven Spielberg, 1984, starring Harrison Ford and Kate Capshaw, original finished artwork [by Mike Vaughan, unsigned], pen and ink and watercolour on board with printed legend at foot and lettered acetate overlay, the whole tipped on to board, 33 x 22 ins (84 x 56 cm)  A very fine and unique piece of original artwork for the second film featuring the iconic adventurer. This artwork would seem to have only been used for the Australian one-sheet poster (see preceeding lot) and shows Indiana Jones with machete and whip against a large plain circular background within an action-packed surrounding border.



A View to a Kill, dir. John Glen, 1985, starring Roger Moore and Tanya Roberts, original concept artwork for an apparently unused one-sheet poster design, possibly by Mike Vaughan, pen and ink with watercolour and acrylic, printed lettering at head and foot of board, 32 x 22.5 ins (81 x 57 cm), very fine. This artwork is most similar in overall design to the artwork of Dan Gouzee used for the US one-sheet poster. However, like the British one-sheet poster with artwork by Vic Fair, James Bond wears a white tuxedo and the printed titles are centred at the head and foot. As in the Dan Gouzee poster Roger Moore stands precariously high above the Golden Gate Bridge, but here Tanya Roberts clings to his legs while trying not to slip off with one foot dangling into the letterpress beneath. Christopher Walken is closing in with a stick of dynamite from the left while Grace Jones is leaping in from a spaceship above two other approaching attackers behind Roger Moore's back. A marvellous and dynamic piece of original and unique James Bond artwork.

Speaking of buyers premiums, this one is pretty classic from the auction mentioned above:

"A buyer's premium of 17.5% of the hammer price is payable by the buyers of all lots, except those lots asterisked, in which case the buyer's permium is 20.56%."

How many of them have the asterisk, you might ask?  Every item except one.

Thanks.  You know what you did.

Personally, I think Tom Jung is very underrated and should at least get credit when credit is due.

Lots of great auctions coming up.  Since Heritage and Emovie are so well-known around here, I've tried to highlight some of the more obscure auctions in this thread.  I've updated the Google calendar itself to add all the major upcoming auctions:

Thank goodness Profiles didn't have a show when John authenticated the Dracula poster - would've been funny though to see him "betting his life" that it was real.

Interestingly enough, he did "stake his reputation" (his words) on the MUMMY 1sh being authentic in the episode.  The poster sold for 200K and Joe M said that it was a record setting price.  What record would that be?  Maybe a record price for an item in one of their auctions?

  Hey Mel,

  Just wondering how big of a deal it would be to have active links on your calender.  Currently it pulls up a map and gives an email address, but it would be way cool if you clicked on the auction and went straight to the website.  Of course, as a a web caveman, I have no idea how hard that might be.

   "Please step away from the keyboard.  In my unsolicited opinion, you paid too much for your poster," said APF Price Police Officer Thierry.

Based on this thread, I don't think it's possible.
