Some of the KINO reissues are great too, classic films, nice art, and affordable. I'd rather aspend $30 on a reissue, than $10 on a repro.

Sometimes they are nicer, sometimes not. Sometimes the lesser value outweighs the lesser appeal I am glad Bob Mentions Walkabout. MAN thats a great film. Personally I havent seen a poster that REALLY does it justice. The Aussie 1 sheet i like, but like CARS THAT ATE PARIS - to me, there is no poster that really captures how fantastic the film is. Recently on NS4 we had some discussion regarding another classic Aussie film, and its reissue poster. If it wasnt for reissues I wouldnt have half the Val Lewton posters and cards I do have, so I LOVE THEM.

A Clockwork Orange has not one, but two re-issue one sheets that are much better than the original. Depending on how you look at it, half the posters from the greatest poster release of all time could be called re-issues (2001 a Space Odyssey). The rerelease of Singin' in the Rain, although very similar to the original, is slightly more appealing. More recently, Donnie Darko's rerelease was slightly better than the original poster (although, neither of them can hold a candle to the pre-release poster).

The Hustler reissue is much more indicative of the film content and, hence, I get a lot more requests for that reissue than the original.

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. THOUGHTS ?????????????????? See what's free at AOL.com.
