Check out this link for an AR piece on British Quads - broadcast last week:

It was good to see a long feature (maybe too long) on movie posters but I
was not totally convinced at the info given on the Lawrence of Arabia
re-release (value) and the War of the Worlds poster (i.e. the fact that no
quad exists and that if it did it would fetch £100,000 upwards).

 

The LoA estimate of £5,000 is surely out given that  Heritage have sold two
for less than $1,000 (inc. BP). Pre-awards would be a different story.

 

As regards the WotW. I could have sworn that I have seen one in a catalogue,
on a website or on TV. In fact, I have a feeling that I actually saw one on
the UK AR many years back. It was in a large collection of 50s/60s quads. I
cannot find any reference to it now but I also cannot believe that a 1950s
quad for a not-so-fantastic movie could fetch £100,000+. 

 

Any thoughts? Anyone remember that UK AR show? The guy had a mouth-watering
collection.
