Mid-auction analysis - OMGs!, LOLs!, WTFs!, whatev....

[CSM]

That's a copy I did not know existed.  $12,000 would be quite the result given past sales but with the insert going so high who knows?

Still if the seller were serious about moving it you'd think it would be best to place in a high profile auction

[erik1925]

Wow, I'm surprised, I can actually recognize the cast.

 

That's because they used the US produced images (and used this layout):  



Tho the AU artists retouched & went a bit heavy on his lipstick.

Uhm...I've seen that teeth before.

This '49RR is a slightly different story:  

[CSM]

Marchant Printers used a photographic process on their daybills whereas the others are litho

[erik1925]

Right, Chris. 2 different production/print methods.. the later RR being drawn artwork, with Ingrid looking much older (imo) with those more obvious fold lines on either side of her nose and mouth.

Tho, to be fair, it is a number of years later, re-release-wise.  

And with regard to Bogie's teeth on that one.. I think Rosa might be better able to express.

Welcome aboard pokerplayer!!!

Just as an FYI, way back when in the lost mists of time, I sent Todd color copies of the front and back of my MARK VAMPIRE press book so he would have a reference for the resto of the one sheet.  I was totally unaware that the pressbook and actual posters could or would be different.  Thanks for the info, Rich, you continue to teach this old dog new tricks.  Now, where's my cookie reward  ??

Well this seems to prove large portions of it were missing - and supports Jeff's visual observations

Bill : Ah did not have , a sexual relation , with that woman , Kay Francis

Bill : Ah did not have , a sexual relation , with that woman , Kay Francis 

She married (and divorced) 5 times. Had numerous affairs with men and women (a true "democrat" as Rick might have said).

She kept herself  busy enough I think.

[erik1925]

I think you might have missed Tang's joke there..

Nope. I don't think so.

Have the reprints become so notorious they have some value now?

Likely the description was altered to note the fact it is a reprint AFTER the bids were placed

Cool Star Wars poster of R2-D2 skiing. 

http://auctions.emovieposter.com/Bidding.taf?_function=detail&Auction_uid1=3693895

Interesting description from eMovie:

"R2-D2 Skiing, the 1980s Norwegian commercial poster featuring an image of R2-D2 skiing down a slope by Tore Stang. Note that we really don't know anything about this poster other than that it is very cool. It was found along with some Danish posters, and it measures the right size for that, but the only words on it are for "Fox Norena Film Norway", so we would think it is a commercial poster from Norway. But of course, it could be anything else! We DID contact the two leading Star Wars experts in the world to ask them about this poster, and they told us that there were members of the Norwegian ski rescue patrol that worked as extras in Norway when the Hoth battle scenes were filmed. So they feel this COULD have been something that Fox Norway printed up to commemorate that, and that it might have been something only internally done, and perhaps given to the members of the ski team as thanks for their participation, but that is just guesswork on the part of the experts! If anyone knows more about this poster, please e-mail us and we will post it here."
