I think that's my 5th Exorcist Quad Jeff, all from different releases; And yes Dick was the Master, I thought his make-up on Max von Sydow was first rate to the point people didn't realise, he was actually youngish at that time, and was more made up than Linda Blair...

Smith's old age makeups were top notch; Von Sydow was only 44 at the time of the film's release, and Smith had the ability to be subtle enough in his sculpting to make the work undetectable.

Same with his work on F. Murray Abraham, as old Salieri in Amadeus and Dustin Hoffman, in Little Big Man.

I haven't posted in 2 months, and bought a lot of posters, so I decided to skip May and only post some from the last 30 days.

I only bought one today, but it's really not interesting.

Thai Paint Your Wagon.

So here you go, you got something I bought today

Ha! Glad to see you got this one. I had my eye on it for the past year and a half. The seller kept posting it but for some reason I just could not bring myself to purchase it. You got it for a good price, I'm glad it went to a good home!

So this recent arrival of JAWS 3-D puts my JAWS Thai collection into pretty good shape. My favorite is the original artwork I have for the JAWS 2 poster. THE LAST JAWS poster is cool to have because Universal sued the Italian company that made it and the picture is no longer allowed to be shown or distributed in any form.

Some big bites there, again, Mike.

And VERY cool that you own the original Thai Jaws 2 art, too!

Congrats!

I know why you couldn't bring yourself to purchase it... Because it blows a little. I only posted it because Jeff forced my hand with his July acquisition bullshit.

Love the Jaws 2 original artwork. Is the poster DS? Mine is.

And I hope you don't own the original Jaws artwork, because I would have to come and take it with brute force.

There's something about the way Lee Marvin looks on that poster that angers me, as if the artist didn't take the time to really capture his spirit. It's LEE MARVIN, take the time damn you!

The JAWS 2 poster is not really double sided. The story from Tongdee the artist is that the poster distributor was too cheap to print out separate proofs so he just used the backs of the poster paper the final printing would be done on. The color on the back of mine is much more green and has too much contrast, I'm curious what your's looks like.

JAWS 2 Thai Movie Poster Proof

It's kind of cool because that makes each of the posters more individually unique. I'm curious if anyone does not have printing on the back.

If I had the JAWS 1 artwork you would never get within a hundred miles of it my friend

Chris, Oh.. what a fantastic set. Loving the The Stranger What a great rendition of Edward G Robinson! I don't think he looks quite like him on some posters, but he does here. I want one!!

That's a tax stamp guys. Very common on Belgians (and helps very much in determining originals!)

There had been a snipe across the top but it was removed before I acquired the poster - you can see some remnants of it

Indeed. And i love when these are found on Belgians, too, Chris.

They give an added sense of a poster's history and use at the time they were up and posted about town or in a theater.

Is that Cocaine a RR, Chris? With no credits other than the actors' names, I often know this can be the case (same with US material done like this, too, or like the later re-releases that Belgium did for Laurel and Hardy films, for example).

Thanks Chris, I consider myself educated now

As far as I know it is from the first Belgian release of this Italian film "Una Lettera All'Alba" - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0041588/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1

So it probably dates from the early 1950s.

You're right. I did not notice it until now, but it's probably because I never really looked.

Here's mine...

I'm sure everyone else's is the same.
