The block EMI logo wasn’t used until 1976: http://www.closinglogos.com/page/EMI+Films+%28UK%29
Keep in mind the person selling the the duo-tone English 1-sheets has no relation to Studio Canal. So none of this info is “according to Studio Canal…” — it’s according some some seller on eBay. They’ve been listing the Peeping Tom 1-sheets with the block EMI logo as original release also. There is a much different (and much more rare) day-glo English export 1-sheet that turned up in France that is almost certainly from the first release. It uses the Anglo-Amalgamated logo, the same distribution company that released Peeping Tom in England in 1960. http://www.emovieposter.com/agallery/archiveitem/11353878.html My money would be on most/all of those duo-tone English 1-sheets being re-release posters. > On Sep 25, 2018, at 8:36 AM, Tommy Barr <[email protected]> wrote: > > In today's auction on emovieposters there are 2 English one sheets for Scars > of Dracula, one listed as the first release and one as an undated re-release. > While there is no doubt that the full colour poster is the first release, > according to StudioCanal who now own the archive for most English studios, > the bi-colour version is also a first release, but for international > distribution.
