We originally had 6 or 7 of those rolled Follow Me one sheets. I think we only have 1 or 2 left now.
Check out this color progressive proof set that we also had:




A few years ago we acquired a collection of rolled one sheets from 1968-72 that included a ton of lesser known titles, as well as several awesome ones. We had bullitt intl., barbarella intl., a clockwork orange X, dirty harry, yellow submarine, etc. etc. We still have several left, mostly of the lesser known titles. They came from a studio exec. who had the privilege of going to the nss printing facility and just taking whatever he wanted, so he did! Most things he just took one of, but sometimes he took several if he really liked the poster.

We have also dealt with several sources that have had rolled one sheets from the 70's, These were guys who used to work at the print shop and they saved some stuff over the years. Gore graphics in California had a lot of light-fingered employees!

Rolled posters......................I don't know if I should post this, though remember as we get older we get wiser.

I was at a film fair in London in 1979 a dealer was offering 3 Bond posters for £21 which I thought was too much. He came after me later and offered them for £18 which I accepted. One of them was a style "c" YOLT that was rolled. As I still lived at home space was an issue, so...........I..........Folded it.

A couple of years when I was starting out I bought some metric IKEA frames (700mm x 1000mm (27.5" x. 39.25") and folded and trimmed several one sheet posters to fit them....

Harry.. it's a commercial art print that was released simultaneously with the film's release. Kicks ass without the titles and credits
