you dont like the power cord?

The power chord looks unhappy, like it is saying, I once was popular, now, that darn poster has all the attention



Oh, nice cushion and nice table too

The Thunderball quad is in a 4-inch wood frame with tru vue optium acrylic. I don’t like regular non-glare plexi. So I’ve started using optium acrylic. The camera is directly over the TBall frame, but notice there is no reflection. You can really see the difference in the Barbarella 40x60(optium acrylic) vs. FAFDM 4-sheet (regular plexi). Notice the reflection of the door frame in the FAFDM 4-sheet , but not in the Barbarella 40x60. The Barbarella piece is clear like the FAFDM piece but without a reflection. I will get a reflection if I put either the Thunderball quad or Barbarella 40x60 opposite a window or a lamp, so the optium acrylic doesn't solve all problems.

Outstanding posters, there, Mike.

And also a cool way to show size comparisons between the 2.

And Im TOTALLY loving the Black Sunday Italian 4F on the right. That imagery is a knock out of the park.

What happened to him/her?  She/he hasn't posted here or the other places in almost 3 years, but was apparently logged in here a couple months ago.

[erik1925]

Mike logged in a few months ago to say he still was around and would be posting some new stuff soon.

We can only hope, as he also has some really amazing pieces in his collection. And he frames things up right, too!

This framed, limited edition, signed animation cel, for The Incredible Mr. Limpet that I picked up today, was floor bound - but just long enough to snap a pic or 2.

[50s]

Nice! But what exactly is an animation cell. I've seen a shop full of them.

[erik1925]

Thanks, Steve.

wiki explains it better than I could.

Yeah, Steve, you can see the clear sheet (the hand painted cel showing Limpet) which is overlaid on the background, underwater lithographic image.

It's a multi-layered piece, is maybe the best way to describe it.

Now just to spread them all out, like a montage effect.

[guest4955]

Well for various reasons I never lock my front door but now I have suffered the inevitable: HOME INVASION!!!



Er...actually the UPS dude dropped off a friggin' brick from EMP.

The "Mel"-o-drama will continue...







OMG it's The Killers, call the cops! Wait Ava is too smoking hot to go to jail....



A lusty luscious blonde villainess follows!



Her Stone Age ancestor is next!



Have absolute ZERO clue about this Saul Bass image or what the heck this movie is about but it looks pretty:



Ahh daaamn, I swore I wouldn't buy any more wacky pornies but look what showed up!  (All the female collectors on board please excuse. Wait there are no femmes here, alas. Just us poster nerd hombres....)

[50s]

Looks like Mel's collection 2 is appearing like Mel's collection 1 having same posters. The Beast and the vixens is one I'd really like

1-sheet vs. Subway -- Sometimes it's hard to appreciate the difference in scale until you are gawking at them in person! 

[Tob]

That subway poster is amazing!   

[brude]

Yup... Love that Thunderball subway!!!
Congrats Matt!
 

[erik1925]

Great looking subway, there, Matt.

Looks in awesome condition, too. (Has it been backed?)

[Harry Caul]

Yes, on linen to address some tears, handling wear, and some torn corners -- the worst of it was a missing lower left corner that extending into the top of the T in Thunderball.  However, the art was completely intact and in ROLLED condition with original colors.  It looks amazing with all those years of neglect and dust/dirt cleaned away!
