Damn! I was hoping I could sneak it through by telling you we agreed in one of your drug-induced stupors

Don't worry, it's in the tube next to mine...containing his SHIP OF WANTED MEN

Well after two months in transit (including one RTS) my Grace Kellys arrived. The High Society Half sheet is pretty much flawless. I would put it up against any other copy. Thought I was getting the red one but this one will do. It has one faint 2" wrinkle, else I almost thought it was fake when I pulled it out of the tube... Ahh what a sight!

That is a beauty and looks smashing framed and displayed!
Congrats!

Replaced the pic so you could get a better understanding of how nice it is. The first shot was a bit shadowy...

She sure is sweet Charlie. Enjoy.

On my walls (so far):

In my study/office: One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest, Gone With The Wind (R73), The Graduate

On the other wall in my study/office (Born Yesterday)

Paramount stock poster circa 1915. In the foyer/entrance.

OK, technically not on the wall but about to be, outside our bedroom. My wife loves Betty Boop, so this was a Xmas gift 2 years ago and has just been shifted from its former wall. It is an exact reproduction in terms of paper used and printing style, colours etc etc...however, I am always on the look out for the genuine article...

CSM · « **Reply #258 on:** January 27, 2012, 07:28:05 PM »

Very nice David! Looking forward to seeing the rest up on the wall...

Very very lovely

Great setup, David. Very cool classics.

brude · « **Reply #261 on:** January 27, 2012, 08:34:41 PM »

Very tasteful display of beautiful posters, David!
The Paramount piece in the foyer is top-notch.

Love this, great framing and placement.

Thierry, I thought you were anti-half sheet? Or will you be jumping on board our team like you did with Team Mondo?

eatbrie · « **Reply #264 on:** January 27, 2012, 09:41:03 PM »

No, I'm not anti half sheet. I don't think I've ever said that. I love half sheets for having a different design than one sheets. I did say I'm anti Belgian, locandinas, daybills and inserts, though

wonka · « **Reply #265 on:** January 27, 2012, 09:43:50 PM »

Very good. Actually I don't think you ever did say you were against the format known as the half sheet, just know you like bigger stock.

I am a big fan of half sheets and inserts, love the stock they are printed on, the colors and design pop more than their one sheet brothers.

eatbrie · « **Reply #266 on:** January 27, 2012, 09:55:23 PM »

You're right, Inserts can be cool. I don't own many, but I like the ones I do. Like these two:

wonka · « **Reply #267 on:** January 27, 2012, 11:03:40 PM »

Those are two good ones. Not sure how many I have, 25-30 maybe...

Was that Cj's Dirty Harry?

My 1 poster

Is that an original display case? I am loving it. A lot.

I must see if I can pick one up here in my travels one day...

My father-in-law made it for me. It opens up from the bottom with a black velvet background. I'm very grateful he did, because otherwise I would have no posters up at the house.

Arhhhh, too many people have daybills.

(And good ones at that!)

So here are some Aussie one sheets.

Ari · « **Reply #272 on:** February 14, 2012, 01:41:08 AM »

A work in progress as I unpack and refind things in storage. Note the lack of frames.

YEs its BLUE TACKED to the wall, it was cheap had it for years, nobody ever seemed to want to buy it, so I enjoy it (a quite disturbing SHAW BROS Italian 2F).

Some daybills, LCS and a nice Jesus and Mary light box thingee.

Some Val Lewton, Some Stanley Baker, some Russ Meyer (Kitten) even some Marlene.

One for Rich, got it in las Vegas 2001 and its still like new ($10 from Walmart)

Not as disturbing as the meat cleaver beside the bed

Yeah, that explains why the posters are covered in plastic... easy to wipe down the blood splatter

Very nice display of posters Ari
