I never assumed anyone was out to screw me. I simply said that the HA CSR wasn't very friendly or accommodating with my request. She wasn't. But fortunately, GREY was. See, I even got his name right this time!  8)

Last two Heritage catalogs up for grabs, just gotta pay postage (they're pretty heavy).  

First to reply and request them gets them.

Julie and Ted got the last batch of these, so somebody else this time:

It is the only way for me to get one...  I think I've been black listed.  Besides, everybody likes pretty pictures!

Christie's Dec 1990 catalog - 80 color pages from one of the first major poster auctions.  Bruce & Co organized this auction, many of the posters came from Charles Dyas, a theater manager in the 1920s/1930s.

I have a duplicate copy of this, so giving away for free to the first person who posts in this thread to claim it.  Free postage to US, actual costs for international.  (It's not very heavy.)

I'll try it out, Mel.
Thinking of picking up a set of Bruce's as well, so this might tip the scale.
Witty signature goes here.

Free rolled Vertigo video one sheet poster, same one as shown here:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/VERTIGO-ORIGINAL-HOME-VIDEO-RELEASE-POSTER-HITCHCOCK-/130864696497

Not worth much but does feature the original Saul Bass art.

Free shipping to US, actual cost international.  First to post in this thread gets it.

Not to look a gift horse in the mouth, but wouldn't it have been more fair to say "Free shipping to US, actual cost minus U.S. cost to international"?

It would cost you the same either way.

Latest Heritage catalog (somewhat beat up and with some notes/page folds) and



Ruined but good-looking Goldfinger re-release one sheet (some moo-ron - namely moi - traced the folds with permanent magic marker back in the day) - pretty sure I paid $100 for it:



Some random mediocre/theater-used current releases - Die Hard 6, Lawless, Immortals, Apollo 18, Now You See Me:



Post here to claim one or all of the above.
