New here, and excited to finally have a place to share my collection with like minded folks. My collection is focused primarily on films from the mid-70's through the late 80's, but as you see here with my first three examples, I often stray. I'm a sucker for films that really impact me, or posters from any era with strong design elements. Here we go.....

'Critters' (style B)
'Funny Games'
'It Follows' (ds, int'l)

Thanks everybody. I appreciate the warm welcome!

I've only been collecting for a little over a year, but I dove into it hard and heavy and haven't looked back since

A lot of good deals to be had this time of year methinks.

Great stuff! Can't wait to see more.

Chris9000 · « **Reply #7 on:** February 18, 2016, 10:32:09 AM »

Thanks again for the kind words... a few more for today.

Your FilmArmada certainly looks more promising than the Spanish Armada (sorry couldn't resist)

On a more serious note, may I ask? How are you storing your posters? Are those acid-free files or boxes?

All creepshow paper is good for me!

Thanks... They are all stored in a system of cardboard file folders lined with acid free tissue paper, with the same tissue paper between each poster in the folder. The folders all fit into a larger filing storage box.

Very nice, this. Make sure not to store folded posters with rolled ones.

Thank you. Most helpful. It looks like a good storage system.

A few more additions for today...

Edward Scissorhands
The Blob (remake)
Critters 2

CJ138 · « **Reply #15 on:** February 21, 2016, 04:27:21 PM »

Great stuff! The scene in Critters 2 when the farmer gets run over by the giant ball of Critters made such an impact on me LOL! The Blob poster I feel is underrated. So creepy.

Hey thanks! I'm working on picking up all of the domestic paper for parts I & II, then will probably move on to foreign. The Polish sheet for the original film is killer.

Agreed on 'The Blob,' especially looking at it full size/up close, it's really effective.

Gingerman · « **Reply #17 on:** February 22, 2016, 10:54:18 PM »

I have never seen that version of Edward before. Is it from the original release?

Found one here, as a reference, Chris:

Appreciate the help, Jeff!

The one above is the domestic final.

There is also the intl. style B, which is a little more difficult to find (but not that hard). With a butterfly!
