I think the most familiar case of vintage re-issue posters -- during the
past 10 years -- zooming past originals in value -- would be the 1966
one-sheet to 1959's "North by Northwest." Another example would be the 1972
re-issue of "Easy Rider."

YOU KNOW IT IS A GREAT TITLE WHEN THE REISSUES COST A LOT.
Wizard of Oz, Gone with the Wind, and some hitchcock come to mind.
A year ago, a purchased a mint CASABLANCA reissue. i hated it!!!!
couldn't
look at without thinking it was a reissue. resold it on ebay, and made
about 30.00
However, i do own the Rebecca half sheet reissue of 1948. I bought it in
the first batch of posters i acquired, 20+ years ago. Probably ripped off
at
the time----i paid $40.00. I have seen it sell for 350+. (this is the
EARLIER reissue).
So many of my originals have their reissue counterparts going for nice
bucks--
And so many reissues look better than the original!!!
Presently on ebay, there are about 3 reissues of posters of which i want
the
originals. but, i will still wait.
THOUGHTS ??????????????????
