I have an odd size 48 by 72 Cinerama roadshow poster of It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World. Maybe from the UK as it's 72 wide and 48 high. But, it had some tears and piece missing from the bottom left corner. I don't know what the cost would be to restore and linen back it. I might not get back the cost to fix it should I decide to sell it.

The cost of linenbacking and framing a large format poster is daunting. I know that when I buy a 3-sheet or 6-sheet, I never have immediate plans for it. I assume that somewhere down the line I will linen/frame it and display it. But I would venture to guesss that most people who buy these large posters do nothing with them. They sit in a closet somewhere. ---- "Walton wrote: The simple answer is yes....I will go look at your auctions now :-) But also yes...just too damn big....a one sheet takes less room...even when it's stored in a cabinet...it's still easier to show friends a one sheet when it's folded up then to try and find the time and the room to show them a 6 six. ________________________________ From: MoPo List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Bruce Hershenson Sent: Tuesday, May 12, 2009 10:03 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [MOPO] A couple of questions about YOUR opinion of three-sheets and six-sheets I am currently auctioning three-sheets and six-sheets so of course they are on my mind! Here are my questions: 1) I see a fair number of the three-sheets and six-sheets where they are currently below the price of the corresponding one-sheet! Is that often the case, and if so, why do you think this happens? 2) I sometimes hear collectors say, "I would buy three-sheets and six-sheets, EXCEPT they are too big for my walls". But many of these same collectors have HUNDREDS or THOUSANDS of one-sheets that sit folded up in boxes, and are never displayed. So, if it is going to sit in a box, what difference do they make if they are one-sheets, three-sheets or six-sheets? 3) Some ad campaigns have three-sheets and six-sheets where they are simply "stretched-out" versions of the one-sheets (like Forbidden Planet), but other times the three-sheets and six-sheets have completely different images. I think that when the three-sheets and six-sheets have similar images to the one-sheet they should sell for somewhat more (due to the greater size and rarity), but if they have superior images they should sell for a lot more, and when they have inferior images (like in the case of The Sin of Nora Moran three-sheet, which is nowhere as nice as the one-sheet) they should sell for a lot less.
