Hi to you all I am often asked about the various stamps, stickers and blackouts that appear on many posters that were used in New Zealand. The New Zealand censors were brutal on any posters that mentioned sex or depicted images that they thought might upset the public. They routinely blacked out large sections of posters and added stamps and stickers to denote NZ censorship. I compiled a guide some time ago that has more information on what to look for and some examples and images of how the censors mutilated some great posters. http://www.moviemem.com/blog/MOVIE_POSTER_NEWS/79/ Regards John
