My favorite PEEPING TOM poster. Spectacular...

Harry Caul · « **Reply #476 on:** January 18, 2011, 09:28:42 AM »

That's odd... I have that Peeping Tom poster and I've always thought it was an original release. I know HA has sold it as an original at least once before...

However, Bruce has his listed as an early 60's re-release. And I just noticed he sold the same poster a few weeks ago listed the same way. But... it states "MCMLX" (i.e. 1960) in the fine print. Does anyone know the full story on this?

WOW - even after being restored, this is a treasure. Probably worth more than the barn was!

You think it'll top 10Gs with the restoration it needs?
Bruce's copy was VG-FN and LB'd for 25G.
I guess we shall see in 2 days, eh?

YES, high bidder. I just wanted my name the auction history

Harry Caul · « **Reply #481 on:** January 20, 2011, 12:16:55 AM »

I was thinking high teens, but I'm not surprised at all that it broke 20. Its crazy when you see something like this sell in the wild (i.e. not a big auction)...

$21,387.56 for beautiful Gilda - that seems like a huge price for eBay! Astonishing really. I was suspecting less than $15,000.

I wonder if the buyer will actually complete the sale?

I was out at 16600.

I'll have to settle for the one in my digital display

And now, only a few days after winning this (was won on 1/19/11) the same winning bidder (and dealer) has it listed back on Ebay for a cool BIN price of $33,500.00 (best offers considered, too). He's going for the quick turnaround. The last one to sell at Heritage, during their March 19, 2010 auction, sold for $28,680.00 and that includes the 19.5% BP.

I think that's a "Post-auction analysis" now? Wonder who got it...

So, which one of you miscreants talked this guy into ending this auction early?

Ted, that poster has been for sale for weeks on end

So why is the only remaining Frankenstein three sheet coming back to auction just a couple of years after it sold for $38,000?

50s · « **Reply #494 on:** January 29, 2011, 12:58:03 AM »

Don't know... Maybe he can now afford a franky with two legs

Louie D. · « **Reply #495 on:** January 29, 2011, 09:57:09 AM »

It says in the item description "Provenance: The Nicolas Cage Collection", wasn't he having some recent financial problems?

MoviePosterBid.com · « **Reply #496 on:** January 29, 2011, 02:20:26 PM »

yes Louie, but it had already been sold so Nick doesn't own it anymore

Pretty strong price for what is basically a coverless copy (not to mention cut and incomplete).
Guess if you have a cover, parts of the inside and are trying to put a complete one together it is a good deal.

Bruce · « **Reply #499 on:** January 31, 2011, 04:36:08 PM »

How can it be coverless, Sean? The auction clearly states "This is a fantastic, original RKO Pictures COMPLETE ORIGINAL UNRESTORED 1933 King Kong press book."!
