What is interesting, too, is how one defines the phrase, "most prized."

For some it can mean the most valuable and to others, it can be tied to a memory, a time, place, the film itself that has special meaning, family etc.

..........
the Brasher Doubloon 3sh sold in 2006 for $1081 I was the underbidder
I later bought  a top 2/3s for $90. Then l a linenbacked one which I snatched for only $314 - essentially the cost of linen & any restoration it got (minimal fold wear). I saved $767 and I was able to pop it right up on the wall at the office next to the great French 1 grande (stairs style) of Orpheus (one of my favorite films. I'm a big Cocteau fan too) with the fantastic original German BAT in between them (on the original, her necklace is much more colorful & different than the re-issue)

unfortunately, I have no more room to put up the other Orpheus grande (hand style). The two Orpheus posters fight Murder My Sweet for "most prized"

4 years later.. finally got the Orpheus up!

If we talking emotional value, it would be the first poster I ever got... 

This one.



Summer 1984.  From a small theater in Woodstock, IL, where a young French teenager was learning the American Way.  Woodstock is also where they shot Groundhog Day 8 years later.

I don't know about most prized, but this Rear Window poster I recently bought is in my top 5 most expensive posters.

EXTREMELY rare French poster by Roger Soubie.  The last time it went for sale was in 1990.

This is a perfect example of why I hate you.

Seriously?

Back in the country and looking through my "personal" collection.
I guess this is my most prized poster.
I have shown before, but a small sellers pic I think.
Searching failed to find anything else.

Even bloody google cant find a better image of this one.



the film means a lot to me, as a kid it blew me away, I often talked about it, and tried in vain to describe the strange version of "pool" or Snooker or whatever they played (I saw a table like it in bath recently though so that was nice). As an adult I appreciate the history of an Early Terence Fisher, an obscure B film, that I cant find info of any release apart from the UK. And I cannot find ANY other paper on the title, as in not even another copy of the quad anywhere. I assume there is more somewhere, and I am hoping there may have been an international release to the colonies and a UK 1 Sheet might turn up one day.

This quad was offered by Greg Edwards for a long time, at a price that while very fair I couldnt manage, but as is often the case the poster gods shined on me one day and Australia got another Pommy Immigrant.

you can watch this little gem in full on youtube:
