The fact that some reissues are nicer than the originals, is also true with Lobby Cards. Some are also more expensive and/or harder to find. Titles coming to mind are THE HUSTLER, WEST SIDE STORY, KING CREOLE, and THE GRADUATE.

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.
