Been out of the game for a while

Can't remember if I have posted this before, backed but unrestored



Only 1 more to arrive then I'm done for a year 😀

Amazing.  I didn't know stills of this size existed.  Italian I assume from the format.  I have been wanting to get the style C with the same picture forever.

Thanks, that image is hard to find for sure, 1 sold in one of Bruce's last major auctions for around $2k and I was kicking myself for not getting one so then i tried to get the commercial one which sold for over $1k I got outbid. Man I was so pissed I scraped some money by selling some vintage car parts and a Lego set and this one popped up on eBay and I got it for less than Bruce's one and mine is unbacked.

Yes you're correct it's an Italian size I think have around 7 of these oversized stills now.

The style C US 1 sheet is nice but it's too pricey for me

Been on my wall for almost a decade, but thought I’d share in the spirit of the topic!

As always, my main issue is that I want it rolled.  I was the underbidder a few years ago at HA I think.  I will probably settle for a folded copy at some point.  I have a rolled copy of the psychedelic eye wilding, which has been sitting in a tube since I bought it, and I think both posters would look great on a wall together.

Great poster, Riley.

Thanks!

I kind of lucked into my rolled copy. I was able to secure it in a private deal for a lot less than the few rolled copies have sold for at auction. The last few linen backed copies went for pretty low prices, maybe the next folded one will be a bit cheaper too!

As far as this month goes, I did get a great deal on this poster from someone on eBay! Complete and unrestored! I’ve always loved this one, but wouldn’t ever pay what the auction houses seem to command for it.
