That one was the 1949 Astor re-release

Yep.
And although the image on both posters is the same, once you see the incredible colors on the stone litho from the original release, there is just no way that the offset printing of the re-release will do.

Chris, you have a problem when you start listening to anonymous morons on a forum whose main intent is only to taint others with hearsay and conjecture and even more so someone who is known (because we all know who he is) to be no more than a complete and utter ahole in real life with a bone to pick on every dealer there is because almost none of us will do business with him. You should read and pay attention to what Sean posted, and not the jackass who is only making trouble

I assure you I am problem free - my mother had me tested

I standby "controversial" as being an apt word in describing the emotional responses elicited by this poster and discussions surrounding it (regardless of what the ultimate underlying truth of the matter may be)

Case in point = your comment...

MoviePosterBid.com · « **Reply #4855 on:** October 29, 2013, 06:32:03 PM »

it would only be controversal if what the anon ahole said was true. Otherwise it becomes unfounded slander, which is what it was intended to be by the ahole who posted it.

I should also add, if it were true, "Don Quixote" would be all over it. He is silent, so it's clearly nothing but distortion or lies

Teds all but bailed on us....

Not on your life.
Like Stewie said, "other priorities."
Early a.m. truck-driving route, dealing with left-coast video-game suits, drawing, tending to Halloween at tumblr, wooing the women on my route (

), more drawing, trying to find posters that I owe to members, more concept art work, video conferences, cleaning the cave (and preparing to re-locate it), painting, tracking bigfoot... all sorts of stuff. There just aren't enough hours in the friggin' day.
Maybe I should resurrect the old Franklin Planner thing...

I miss the forum, but I don't miss the bickering and name-calling.
Sometimes it makes for entertaining reading...but then it gets old...real old.

Amidst all this bickering, here is something EVERYONE can agree on; this is one mighty fine poster!

WTF? I hate you emovieposter... Nothing like thinking you can pick up a poster for what it last auctioned for and then realizing the other idiot has more 'stupid' money than you. I have a feeling that the one on eBay sitting at $320 is what is driving this one up... I call it the 'cinemasterpieces effect'. Have at it my Polish friend - I've got contacts in Argentina and one day he'll find one for me at the price I want to pay!

Just in time for Halloween

Not a poster but a herald for The Black Cat (1934)

$1200 open bid / BIN: $1585.00

http://www.ebay.com/itm/1934-BLACK-CAT-Herald-KARLOFF-LUGOSI-Classic-Universal-Horror-MONSTER-/161139711211?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2584acdceb

Saw a few of those listed by the seller. Apparently in Colombia, they used english language heralds with a blank space in the back to complete with local info...

Bruce · « **Reply #4873 on:** October 31, 2013, 07:02:29 PM »

Be careful with heralds! Yesterday i received the third counterfeit herald I have ever seen, all in the last few months.

Different, newer paper that has been artificially aged.

Thanks for the info Bruce!

I won't worry much, cause I will never purchase a herald at $1200

, but it's interesting to know someone is counterfeiting smaller pieces of paper.

I assume that if someone made the effort to fake heralds, they must be from high-end titles, right?
