Here is a rare one ....

Very nice John.

I had no idea it was a Hammer production...

Yes, not many people associate Stolen Face as a Hammer film. I thing the images of the two stars are very effective on the daybill. In this movie Paul Henreid plays a plastic surgeon, as he did in Hollow Triumph (sort of), with Lizabeth Scott as the "bad girl". The film was directed by Terence Fisher who went on to direct some of the classic Hammer Horror films.
Regards
John

I have posted these many times before, but since this is a Hammer thread, I figured they should be in it permanently.

Hammer made a lot of non horror films, short films, all sorts of stuff, the hard part of being a hammer collector is people dont list them as hammer, the horror is easy (easier) the others are harder to find, then theres their "shelf" companies, not listed as Hammer, but made by them under different company names, cripes, I could be searching the rest of my life and not get em all, but THATS the fun of collecting, the thrill of the chase.

Those French posters are excellent!
Particularly the Grande for DRACULA is stunning!

"Agreed. They're brilliant! "

If I did'nt know your voice I'd swear I'd said that!

I think it's too late for that book on Hammer film posters. I found this on amazon, it's a new book coming out in October dedicated to Hammer film posters. by the sound of it, it looks quite the ticket. Hope the link works I'm not to good at this sort of thing.

They asked me to provide images for the book, but couldn't afford to pay "much" ended up a couple of hundred bucks on offer or something, for over 150 images, many posters that took me years to find. End of the day, its not worth it, a frind of mine works for a company that sells images for books, whatever, and he laughed. I would love to work with Hammer but over 15 years of putting together a collection, then spending many hours taking pictures, to get a couple of hundred bucks, forget it.

Standard operational bullshit, using collectors enthusiasm to cut corners.
They can't get what they want for free or minimal cost as Ari quotes, they are still going to happily
pay the fees of a Ron Grant Archive or the like.
I ran an extensive specialist picture library for years, supplying magazines and books both in the UK and
Australia as well as the video industry when they got stuck. No one quibbled over fees.
Ari was quite right to take the tack he did.

My first post here, just wanted to say great posters, love them all.
Looking forward to the Hammer poster book from Hammer's archives, It should be
really good if it's from Hammer's own archives.

Hello Dave, The book is being put together by Marcus Hearn who's other books on Hammer have been jollygood. So I'm expecting good things.

Welcome Dave. Your site has been an excellent reference for me and many others.

Thanks very much for your efforts and shared knowledge. Much appreciated!

Awwww, that sucks. Wonder how much they sold for....

paul waines · « **Reply #72 on:** April 17, 2010, 02:29:21 AM »

Oh, that one I was watching that myself, just to see what it went for as i already have it. It is from the first release, so will be the only one I get from it as the classic one goes for quite a sum. I do have the 1963 release Quad though, which is the same art as the 58 U.K. 1SHT.

CSM · « **Reply #73 on:** April 17, 2010, 12:40:37 PM »

As usual Paul, a very nice poster. Your collection is one of the best I have seen!

paul waines · « **Reply #74 on:** April 17, 2010, 01:36:53 PM »

That's good of you to say Chris, I do try.
