Been meaning to take pics of my collection for a long time so I know what I have and don't.
These are just my 2013 acquisitions. More to come as I bring out my past purchases.
I collect mostly from the 70's forward, so no old paper here. Not to say that what I've been seeing around here isn't mighty impressive, just not my thing.
I try to do my homework and believe I've got all originals, but if you see something that is suspect, please let me know.
Enjoy! I know I do.

You are having one hell of a 2013.

Enjoy is the right word. Enjoy!

Very nice. Like both Goonies.

Is that Goonies map style linenbacked, it doesn't look shiny enough...

Thanks Zorba.
My collecting was on hiatus for a while, so I'm trying to make up for lost ground.

Thanks. I like them very much as well. Managed to snag them both in the same auction.

It is not linenbacked. None of them are.
It measures 27x41 spot on.
Both Goonies posters appear to have similar paper, which is shiny. Obviously the angle I used was to avoid glare.
What else could I check for authenticity? You tell me, I'll check it.
Now I'm not going to be able to fall asleep...

Dude, you scared the bejeezers out of me.

I'm writing up my response to Charlie about confirming authenticity and then see your first sentence before I can respond. I about dropped a load.
I know the Donnie Darko is good based on the source.

Oddly enough, when I got the 2 Goonies posters, I was more concerned about the cave-style than the map-style. But after checking them over and over and over, I think they check out. But I will check them again.

Thank you very much. I have to admit, those are 2 of my favorites.
Cheers!

Your posters are fine. Mike. There is nothing wrong with them.

Now go to bed.

I think you can sleep soundly tonight Mike. I think your okay on the authentic part.

erik1925 · « **Reply #12 on:** February 19, 2013, 02:17:30 AM »

Your GOONIES are both fine, Mike. You did a fine job of photographing them, too, to avoid capturing any glare from the flash on the paper.

Tob · « **Reply #13 on:** February 19, 2013, 04:15:35 AM »

Nice posters, Mike. Love that one sheet for 'Up'...I should have coughed up and bought one of those at the time.

Good collection, you should show us more

Streets of Fire looks really nice!

Neo · « **Reply #16 on:** February 20, 2013, 12:04:03 AM »

Your 2013 is off to a great start!

pratschm · « **Reply #17 on:** February 20, 2013, 12:32:39 AM »

Thank you all for the kind words! And for the reassurances. I managed to sleep peacefully.

It's so cool to be able to not only post them for others to see, but to post them for other poster collectors like your fine selves and receive positive feedback.

@Rosa - Yep, love the colors on that Streets of Fire.

@Charlie - No worries. I needed a good anxiety-induced vomit.

More to come soon!

Great posters Mike! I think Planes Trains is one of the funniest movies ever and of course I love The Goonies posters.
