re issue or not perhaps as a final option you could decoupage the
remnents onto pieceof wood as a interesting last homage sits such
notable movie
I save fragments in case people restore older posters, but that's
because I had some hammer titles from the 60s..of Dracula Horror of
Christopher lee....

Thanks for the identification. A R80 Midnight Cowboy is definitely not
worth the expense of restoration to unfuse the stuck paper.
Fortunately, most of the other posters in the lot are in much better
shape.
I knew somebody on MOPO would have the answer, and so quickly, too.
Thanks again

the fuse part will be hard
but to get the ripples out,,just roll the poster backwards tighten
let it sit and relax..thenunroll it
if you take clothes Iron.and set to a low temp you can iron out the
curls..by laying slip sheet or towel over it and slowly move to relax
the paper
If you really get lucky you could possibly wet the area to get the
fuse to release. but best left to the restoration experts..if it
releases clean then Iron outing it should get out the crinkles..Too
much Heat cab make thinks bubble so be careful or tease on a poster
that is junk to learn the process
for stinky books, posters with smell of mold..immerse them in KITTY
litter, as it absorbs oder, watering amines.. I use it for magazines
and books..I learned it from the POP culture dept of Bowling Green
state universities they put comics in a 55 gallon drum of Kitty
litter to remove hers.. it can take month but they come out stink
free..andi think the Ph is neutralized by the clays..as it stops mol
growth
Hope that helps you Colin Hunter sir
God bless

My fellow MOPO-listas,
I recently acquired a real mixed bag of movie posters at a local
estate auction. There are some nice pieces such as a rolled R82
Raiders of the Lost Ark 1-sheet and a linen-backed R48 Saboteur
1-sheet, but there are also some virtually worthless examples such
as
a Brand of Fear (1949) 1S and a 6 Black Horses (1962) 1S. There’s a
Pulp Fiction 1S which has tragically been stored extremely badly and
I
suspect nobody would want in its now sorry state.
While I decide what to do with them, I’d like to figure out if a
poster which has been stored rolled in a cardboard tube and got wet
at
some point is worth rescuing. The water damage has caused all the
paper at one end to fuse together, but before I discard it I’d like
to
know what it is in the unlikely event it’s worth the expense of a
restorer's time. All I can see from the unstuck paper portion are
the
words “For those who have never see” on one line and “and those who
have never forgo” on the next line. The letters are in black, and
the
background appears to be a monochrome image but the visible area I
makes it too small to identify. I’ve put up a photo at
<http://www.colinhunter.com/photos/IMG_5053.jpg> if anyone wants to
take a look.
So, anybody know what this is?
Thanks.
