OK, Bruce, I accept that you have based the offer on information available to you. I suppose I may be exhibiting an English-speaking bias here. Also, to me movies are Hollywood ( a childhood memory) and so the posters which best reflect that are US ones, although I am occasionally tempted by some of the artwork on Polish posters, for example. To obtain quads for the older movies is also generally a more expensive proposition. As a small-time online dealer mainly of US one-sheets, however, I find all my clients are UK based.
