Yep, I certainly agree on those titles. I was speaking more as a generality, as compared to, say, those color saturated Paramount posters from the same period.. And, of course, everything's subjective. I was weaned on insanity-provoking 50s AIP horror/sci-fi/bad girl mages so...there's THAT! It'd be like growing up eating super-hot curry...everything tastes bland in comparison.
Happy Thanksgiving!

It's lovely.
But I never thought Warner's 30's and 40's paper was drab. The Kay Francis 30's pieces are gorgeous. British Intelligence, West of Shanghai, The Walking Dead and Devil's Island (Karloff 1930's) are also nice. Especially the lobby cards. I have The Devil's Island insert in my hallway.

I haven't seen this one and I'm impressed. A lot of Warners stuff from the 30s & 40s is kind of drab. This has some lovely pastel colors. There's some really nice stuff on the Propstore auction.Greg DouglassCoos Bay, ORSent: Thursday, November 23, 2023 at 6:20 PM
