Bruce I was one of those wild posters... we were told to get 10 key
locations and make two rows of five..
they would send us like anywhere from 300- 1000 Posters... from Gore
graphics , Gotham ,,, etc.. 300 would
fit in a triangle tube box.. and they would send Overnight fed ex!!!!
then all the dealers from all parts of country would trade.... thats why
some end up on east coats and some on west coast,, and some where from
Midwest,,,,,,,, the problem is that if its a good title , they woudl get
more scrutiny.. like the disney numbered posters and star wars...
The problem Ive seen is how many posters demand high interest,, because
then if so then the commercial reprints get made... Im sure this is case
with the Twilight posters...
My question is what poster has had any legs since Titanic.??? That was
the last big seller I remember,,
Maybe Spiderman... But not many Big sellesr.. I think because once they
went PHOTOshop Images and canned the Illistators they lost the allure
that made posters cool to collect... Only the Lucasfilm people with the
Drew Struzan art seemed to recognize the art form///
Man the Illistartors made some great posters.. Amsel , and Struzan and
Alvin, Peak and the many others were great!

The Raging Bull's were "wilding" posters, printed to be posted all
over New York City. The guy Marty got them from was the guy who was
supposed to post them, but he kept bunches of them (and lots of
others), not for the collectibility, but so he didn't have to pay as
many kids to post them.
So any title that guy sold Marty were ones his guy had in quantity,
and that keeps the price down. Marty sold these for many years. He
didn't "discover" them 40 years after the fact!

Danilowitz who passed away- who was in Boston
advertised In Movie collectors world for years as " Movie
Gallery" and Poster peopel of Ct.
Nice guy... wifes name was Nancy and he loved his Dog alot!!
... met Marty in person at Javitts center in NYC when I did a
tradeshow National staionary show 80s 90s?? for several years....
did business with him started in like 1976 -77 he was a good
teacher,
Took a train to his east meadow shp and he had piles of
posters... I rememeber he had cleopatra, sand pebbles and
close encounters and many other titles in Piles of 100s...
also Lobbie cards of every kind. sets///
also he had fine art posters and some theatre....
he also bought out Im told many reprints like Micael Savageu
who started POFLAKE productions
and made many nice reproductions like Hollywood Hotel and the
thin man and about 10 others....
Also he bought out MPE Adam Fishman that had a line of
reprints.... good titles liek war of the worlds and others
alll were good.. But useually smaller then one sheet size...
There was also window card size woodstock for the concert
itself... window cards were printed in la by Colby poster and
also by several others likeTribune showprint and enquier
printing....
the window cards wetre printed many by a Letterpress process..
where leters are put on a grid and then the Ink transfered
like a Guttenburg Letterpress .. cuts are made of Logos and
art,,,some were done scree print and some litho print...
I was a wild poster for several Movie and record studios in
80s for Detroit.,,, I will send anyone a window card from a
SANTANA I also have a couple Dan Fogleberg
tour for detroit I personally did the job,,, will offer for
20.00 + 7.00 sent flat. unused Poster I have like 10 left.
many of the rock posters concert posters are being reprinted
off the same machines that originally printed them with same
art,,,, Its practically impossible to see the differance as
they are basically same type cardstock they used in 50s and
60s. the process same.

I got mine about a million years ago from a feller who ran a
place called something like "Connecticut Poster Warehouse,"
which was, I think literally, a warehouse. He had loads of
them and, IIRC, he got most of his stuff from distributors
and perhaps even an NSS warehouse.
Perhaps some of the old timers might recall his name, I think
Bruce might have even scored some of his stash when he left
the biz.
Legit poster though.

With all of this chat about whether or not certain rolled
posters are fakes, I wanted to ask a quick question.
A few years back, it seemed as though there were a ton of
rolled advance copies of Raging Bull (DE
NIRO.........RAGING) for sale everywhere without the
typical "Coming This Fall" that was present in the folded
versions. Sellers literally seemed to have hundreds of
this poster all of a sudden. I bought one myself but
always had a suspicion that there may be something fishy
going on. Many claim that it is the International
version. Is this the case?
Thanks
