Brigitte Bardot through posters
« on: June 10, 2016, 11:30:43 AM »
One of my little niche collections.  I'm French, she's French and probably one of the most famous French women in history (behind Joan of Arc).  So it made sense to me.  Plus, she's quite attractive, and I'm a dude.  So there.

I'll start with some nice Japanese posters, some of them acquired thanks to Matt, so thank you Matt.

Manina, la Fille Sans Voiles (The Girl in the Bikini) (1952)


Doctor at Sea (1955)


Cette Sacrée Gamine (Mam'zelle Pigalle/That Naughty Girl) (1956)


En Effeuillant la Marguerite (Mademoiselle Striptease) (1956)


Et Dieu... Créa la Femme (... And God Created Woman) (1956)


Une Parisienne (La Parisienne) (1957)


Les Bijoutiers du Clair de Lune (The Night Heaven Fell) (1958)


La Femme et le Pantin (A Woman Like Satan) (1959)


Voulez-Vous Danser Avec Moi? (Come Dance With Me!) (1959)


La Vérité (The Truth) (1960)


La Bride sur le Cou (Only for Love/Please, Not Now!) (1961)


Amours Célèbres (Famous Love Affairs) (1961)


Vie Privée (A Very Private Affair) (1962)


Le Repos du Guerrier (Love on a Pillow) (1962)


Le Mépris (Contempt) (1963)


Dear Brigitte (1965)


Shalako (1968)


L'Ours et la Poupée (The Bear and the Doll) (1970)

We haven't even got on to English language printings yet! This is a wonderful niche collection (my favourite from Thierry's vaults) because the images and poster designs are so different - and BB is so charismatic. Surely a gallery exhibition beckons?

Thanks guys.  Yeah, I like this little niche collection of mine.  Niche collections is the reason I love collecting.  Trying to complete a collection is fun.  I actually selfishly started the thread because I wanted to see them all together. 

I'll do French next.

Is Ballester great or what?

But besides the Ballesters, it is cool to see such a diversity of styles from all the different countries.

Ballester is simply too good to be a movie poster artist.  He doesn't belong in the advertisement field.  I'm glad he joined the fray, but he's clearly above everyone else.

A truly magnificent collection, T.
With all of your resources, you should be putting out a line of books.

Thanks.  Selfishly, I'm only posting them here because it helps me see what I'm missing.  I can't really see that on my site because they're all together, but when I put them by country, the missing ones is all I see.  There are 3 major must-own I don't have, but they very rarely pop up.  I got one two days ago though.  Will add it when it gets here.

Ok, T, love ya to bits.  You've got the posters, the knowledge and the site.  And the time, energy and wherewithal to do the above.

But, on the Laura thread, you said you hadn't the time to look for individual cards from broken sets.... Yet you have, at last count, 139,539 Bardot posters and you are trawling for (just) three 'Must Haves'.

I am being a pain in the ass with the above, I must admit.  But still, it is a question.

To answer your question, posters don't come as sets, lobby cards do.  I see absolutely zero fun in chasing little pieces of 11x14in paper.  And I don't see the point of owning 3 lobby cards and not 8.  Like I said, to me, it's a set or nothing.  Collecting different posters from around the world, now that's fun because you don't need to complete a set.

The Italians are my favourite...the artists seem to understand and capture her allure that tiny bit more accurately. Great posters, T.

FFS!  Thought there weren't any more Bardot posters in the world.

Ah, and in English, it is Contempt.  Lovely.

There are more.  I'm not even close to being done.  As we speak, there are 3 more Japanese posters en route.  There are still a few choice French and Italian ones I need to get, I know where they are but they are all too expensive for my taste.  Then there are the Germans.  I haven't even tacked the Germans yet.  But I will.  Soon.

My first Bardot experience was through 'Spirits of the Dead,'... fell in love immediately.

So I wasn't going to post my pathetic Bardot German collection, because it is just that, pathetic, in light of all the material out there, but then I just acquired two more pieces, and I thought what the heck...

Utterly insane.

Bloody page takes a lifetime to load up now...!  Although that might say more about my connection than all else.

Fascinating fella.  Really is.

Same with me, too, Simes. So I dont think it's your connection, just lots of imagery to have to carry over.
