And here I thought he was just going for a Bostonian accent.

It is paper. I've seen the poster listed as 'die-cut' but don't know if that helps. I imagine there was a large press the would simply come down on the stack and shear away the bite area. Just a guess.

That's exactly what it is. it's like attaching a big cookie cutter to a hydraulic press...they normally can cut stacks around an inch thick. any thicker and the blades start to flex off square. the blades are inserted into a laser etched piece of wood that is attached to the top of the press and there is another lasered piece of wood on the bottom of the stack that the blades fit into after they've passed through the stack.

Note a die, is also the term for the mould (which isn't a mould) that coins are struck from,
Coins are struck not moulded.

Vincent Gallo sent me as a bonus this one-of-a-kind "footprint" version of The Brown Bunny.

a million, with certain conditions:

Vincent Gallo's Sperm

$1,000,000.00

Price includes all costs related to one attempt at an in-vitro fertilization. (A $50,000 value) If the first attempt at in vitro fertilization is unsuccessful, purchaser of sperm must pay all medical costs related to additional attempts. Mr. Gallo will supply sperm for as many attempts as it takes to complete a successful fertilization and successful delivery. Sperm is 100% guaranteed to be donated by Mr. Gallo who is drug, alcohol and disease free. If the purchaser of the sperm chooses the option of natural insemination, there is an additional charge of $500,000. However, if after being presented detailed photographs of the purchaser, Mr. Gallo may be willing to waive the natural insemination fee and charge only for the sperm itself. Those of you who have found this merchandise page are very well aware of Mr. Gallo's multiple talents, but to add further insight into the value of Mr. Gallo's sperm, aside from being multi talented in all creative fields, he was also multi talented as an athlete, winning several awards for performing in the games of baseball, football and hockey and making it to the professional level of grand prix motorcycle racing. Mr. Gallo is 5'11" and has blue eyes. There are no known genetic deformities in his ancestry (no cripples) and no history of congenital diseases. If you have seen The Brown Bunny, you know the potential size of the genitals if it's a boy. (8 inches if he's like his father.) I don't know exactly how a well hung father can enhance the physical makeup of a female baby, but it can't hurt. Mr. Gallo also presently maintains a distinctively full head of hair and at the age of 43 has surprisingly few gray hairs. Though his features are sharp and extreme, they would probably blend well with a softer, more subtly featured female. Mr. Gallo maintains the right to refuse sale of his sperm to those of extremely dark complexions. Though a fan of Franco Harris, Derek Jeter, Lenny Kravitz and Lena Horne, Mr. Gallo does not want to be part of that type of integration. In fact, for the next 30 days, he is offering a $50,000 discount to any potential female purchaser who can prove she has naturally blonde hair and blue eyes. Anyone who can prove a direct family link to any of the German soldiers of the mid-century will also receive this discount. Under the laws of the Jewish faith, a Jewish mother would qualify a baby to be deemed a member of the Jewish religion. This would be added incentive for Mr. Gallo to sell his sperm to a Jew mother, his reasoning being with the slim chance that his child moved into the profession of motion picture acting or became a musical performer, this connection to the Jewish faith would guarantee his offspring a better chance at good reviews and maybe even a prize at the Sundance Film Festival or an Oscar. To be clear, the purchase of Mr. Gallo's sperm does not include the use of the name Gallo. The purchaser must find another surname for the child.

This service is available, but is only payable by cash, checks, and/or bank wire.  No credit card payments accepted for this item.

I saw it on eBay, and I couldn't confirm that it's an original, as I didn't see another anywhere else.  After thinking about it, the detail of the cuts indicate that it is likely an original, that was made with the type of dies specifically designed for that.

In talking about the Stout sheet metal poster for Robocop in the Wanted board, I remembered the special poster that was also made of sheet metal for The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo (2011). It was die cut into the shape of a razor blade. So it seemed a good fit in this genre thread.

Good call, Jeff.  It's a cool piece, inspired by the girl's pendant on her necklace.

Cool piece there, ML.  I recently heard about the infamous scene with Chloë Sevigny in this movie.

Do the footprints reference something in the movie?  Interesting how he wrote all that stuff, in addition to his signature.
