As for the small number of movie posters that were included in this auction,
they did incredibly well, here are some examples, all of these are only
hammer prices before buyers commission is added:
VIRGIN QUEEN 3 SHEET 1900
SEVEN YEAR ITCH INSERT  7000
THERE'S NO BUSINESS LIKE SHOW BUSINESS INSERT  7000
THE EGYPTIAN THREE SHEET 2000
DESIREE SIX SHEET 3250
This is a case where this famous provenance radically affected the poster
prices.
