The TERMINATOR Pakistan poster used Tongdee's artwork and did not ask for his permission so he didn't get a dime for that poster.  The same thing happened for the American poster of John Woo's THE KILLER.  They used his artwork for that without permission as well.  This probably happens a lot.

Mine must be a test run as it has no credits...or maybe there's 2 pakistanis ?

That's interesting.  Can you post a pic somewhere?

A couple on a classic noir that in my experience is next to impossible to find paper on (maybe should have been titled MIA?):

Nice Chris.  It's funny how you can't turn around without seeing a copy of the film but you can't find paper on it. It's one of my favorite openings of a film.

Got a couple nice (already framed) items at a local auction tonight:
* For a Few Dollars More - locandina
* My Fair Lady - 2-Folio

The frame was my main motivation for buying My Fair Lady.  My Fair Lady is nice enough, but I intend to put one of my other 2-Folios in the frame.

Nice!  I had my eye on that Eastwood but didn't want to deal with shipping it framed.  Glad to know they went to a good home!

 :) I wondered if any forum members were bidding/watching online. I guess you saw the African Queen 3-sheet too?  It was quite impressive in person.

I was tempted and it went for cheap compared to other sales results for that item. And I don't even want to guess how much the 3-sheet custom frame cost!  I just decided it was too darn big for me to want to deal with it.

If you weren't willing to deal with the framed 3-sheet in person I'm sure you can imagine the difficulties in trying to ship it!  It's too bad as I love the bold red title block and art on the AQ 3-sheet.  I'm happy with my UK 1-sheet and Polish, though -- both already framed and on the wall.  ;D

Congrats again!

This one has it all...floating hand with infamous floating luminous toxin, floating arms strangling a floating head and O'Brien's perpetual floating astonishment

Zowie!  I need to get to this page more often. Usually I hang out on the "Show Us Your Collection" pages admiring everyone's stuff...but the new beauties you guys have been picking up and showing off on here...I almost always completely miss! Golly, there's some great stuff here.


Yup its a good month! if you meant its a good kick in the pants to check into rehab with  devil 2Monster A Go Go devil 2. lol


HA!!!! Yes, I've got the rehab blues. (And I have NOT seen you at any of the therapy sessions...YET. Hee hee!) I'm jones-ing in the worst way for some yummy posters I've seen recently, but.... However being on the wagon with nothing new myself to share got me over here...  Everything on here is super nice but there were a couple of things here that really, REALLY caught my eye! WOWzer!



The UK video poster for one of the best movies of all time.




Oooooo!  Ya, baby! Me like!!!!  BIG TIME!! Golly, do i even have a "Killer Klowns" poster of any kind? I don't even know...







OOooo... I NEED this! LOVE it! Is this a porno? Ha! Great graphics either way. There had better be another copy somewhere on the planet. Ha!








VERY nifty and nice-o-rama! I dig it and can totally see why you are such a Thai poster whore (and there is NO shame in that at all). WOW! Gorgeous!







Wow! Wow! Wow!!  Looks like the Thai posters win this month. AWESOME!!!!  I really need to get me some...once I am out of rehab, that is... Ha!

Thank you for sharing everyone.

CHEERS!
