Quote from: ddilts399 on January 01, 2026, 02:20:12 PMThis Superman is supposedly 1 of 11 printed in one sheet size (THEATERS, not the INTL version).

Got 2 of these, dont think i am selling unless I can find more. Edge of Tomorrow source material.

These are cool. What version is The Edge of Tomorrow? I'm not sure what you mean about the source material.

Morphine, not often to hear about a projectionist or other theater employees from that time selling their collection. Cool bit of additional history to your wins.

All you need is kill is animated film released this year, based on the original novel/graphic novels that Edge of Tomorrow was then using for its source material.

Cool. Interesting how they went back to the original title of the book for the animated movie. I was just reading why they didn't use the original title for the 2016 movie, and the article said because they didn't want to use the word "kill" in the title. Anyway, nice wins.

I just received my wins from Heritage's last Signature auction. First off, a very rare French poster for Laura (1946), which will nicely compliment my other (smaller) French poster for the same title. I remember Thierry here saying that there were only 2 known copies of this poster (his and another one in Japan), so this is a truly rare find.

Secondly, a fantastic 3-sheet for Karloff's The Man with Nine Lives (1940), which I have been wanting for a while.

Finally, an Italian 4F for Earth Vs. the Flying Saucer (1956) with art by the great Ballester.

Congratulations Antoine.
All great. My favourite, by a pinch, is the Italian

It is not me saying this, Antoine, it's your good buddy Julian.

I love love love this Laura poster. Great buy, and if I remember correctly, great price too. I thought it would have done more, but HA doesn't know how to advertise extremely rare posters. Your gain :)

And love the Ballester. I skip linenbacked posters, don't even look at them at auction, but in this case it's a mistake. It's a beaut and I don't know if it can be found folded.

3 beautiful posters, congrats Antoine. All 3 are special, but that Laura...phew! Thanks for sharing pics.

Nice pick ups from HA! I was outbid on everything I tried for there. Last fall I picked up Little Annie Rooney from PropStore, and I just got a Jezebel one sheet from Bruce! Pretty happy with them!

Starling · April 24, 2026, 05:28:07 PM

Really incredible posters, Antoine and Riley.

That Jezebel went for such a steal, and in pretty great condition. Breaks my heart a little knowing what I spent on my copy 10 yrs ago. Ah well, on we go :) That poster is iconic and should be priced as such ha!

Excited to see them all framed up and on the wall like that Pickford, which is looking sharp!

Kudos

Thanks so much! I couldn't believe I got it for $2,800... one of the best Davis posters there is. And my first ever Davis poster! I'll be sure to share a photo once she is framed. It might be few months. Framing isn't getting any cheaper!

Thanks Thierry. I love that French Laura too. I find it comforting to know that new examples of very rare posters such as this one sometimes come up on the market. It gives me hope for other items on my wish list.

At this point, I've reluctantly had to revise my prohibition on linenbacked posters when it comes to older large formats, as it's almost impossible to find a folded copy for certain titles. For example, the Ballester I won at Heritage is fairly rare to begin with, and I've never come across a folded one; so if I want to own this particular poster, I don't have any option but to buy it linenbacked. Whenever I do this, I tell myself that if by a miracle I should come across a folded copy one day, I can always replace it then.

Riley, congrats on your Jezebel, you certainly got a good deal for it!

Hi everyone, I know it's been a long time since I've posted but this find was just too exciting to not share.
This is a poster I've been looking for ever since I first started collecting years ago. I knew that a one sheet for the movie existed, but the only evidence of it was a single image from an old auction that I'm assuming took place long before my time. There was no other evidence of a poster for this film existing, and it was entirely possible that the one from that old auction was the only remaining copy. The film itself opened to a very limited theatrical run that quickly ended, lasting less than a week. I searched and searched for years until it finally came up for sale this year!

This is an original one sheet for the 1989 film "Teen Witch", a classic and one of my all-time favorites! I am happy to have found this one because I knew that it was entirely possible I'd never get one and that it might not even exist anymore. It has all the signs of being used in a theater, including the odd folds and tape but that makes it even more special to me. This one is immediately going in a frame on my wall. I also own an original script for the film (with a cast call sheet), a UK video poster, and a German poster. I know that there is at least one more alternative foreign poster for the film and if anyone has it let me know. ;)

My poster collecting has slowed down a lot the last few years, but I have had a few good finds. I'm hoping to eventually share some of them when I have the time! I believe this was my first poster purchase for the year.

skyjackers · June 27, 2026, 07:45:33 PM

Congratulations, it's great when you finally get that grail, and even better that you're actually going to frame and display it! I have the UK video poster for it tucked away somewhere. Well done for persevering!

Undead · June 28, 2026, 09:37:37 AM

Congratulations! It's always exciting to find one of your grails.

Heather_Mason_SH3 · July 04, 2026, 09:04:18 PM

Thanks! It's definitely a dream come true and I love looking at it on my wall. I'm going to frame the UK one as well as some point!
I'm hoping to be able to organize my collection and have a better storage system soon as well as getting more frames! With hundreds of posters - I'm sure you all know the struggle!
There are still so many great posters out there that I hope to purchase someday!
