If you go here (*http://www.emovieposter.com/agallery/archive.html <http://www.emovieposter.com/agallery/archive.html>* and we are closing in on a million listings!), and type in any artist's name in the search box (without clicking "title only") you will find all titles where we have confirmation that the specific artist did at least some of the art on a specific poster. Unlike other sites, we *ONLY *accept confirmation in the form of an artist's signature on the poster (often incredibly similar art on an unsigned poster is merely copied by another artist) *OR *we accept confirmation from the artist's own website, or from someone who learned of it directly from the artist.
We don't include "opinions" from anyone, no matter how much of an "expert" they are. If *YOU *(or anyone reading this) finds ANY incorrect information, please send an e-mail to "matt at emovieposter dot com" (making the obvious substitution) but be prepared to back up what you say with hard evidence. And of course, if you know of any work by any artist that we missed, please send that as well (but again, it must have hard evidence). Thanks!
