I like re-release posters
« on: June 30, 2012, 09:08:13 PM »
A lot of classics are being re-released in France, along with new posters.  Most of them are pretty hard to get, since they were meant for a handful of theaters, sometimes 1 or 2.  I'm getting them directly from a source I've been using for a few years, and wouldn't know how to get them otherwise.

Here are a few recent examples - All of them are 47x63in.

It sure is.

If not for the re-release poster there are films that the paper for would be (IS) very difficult for some (ME) of us to get. 

I started out to get posters for the movies I loved. I quickly found that to be a very tough task for some of my tastes. I know its not impossible as you all amaze me almost every day. Im just not near up to T, Chris, Harry , Matt, Paul, Ted, Ed, Schan etc etc etc( sorry for all names I left out and there are many of you) know how level...

This is the first time I've had both posters side by side. Get'em framed one day and do the same on the wall.

That is one of the few instances where I prefer a re-release to an original release.
Beauteous daybills, Matt!

Hey T, do you know if there's going to be a Dance of the Vampire's re-release..?   That's fearless Vampire Killers for the U.S. fellows. ;)

Apologies accepted, Chris.
It's a common mistake.
Not only have they been wrongly i.d.'d as aardvarks, but they are often mistaken for celebrities...
