Because this is RKO, it might be a Canadian poster.  I have seen some 
Astaire / Rogers one sheet posters that look similar
to the originals but are not U.S. originals.  In each case these came 
from Canada.  Those posters were in color, like the originals, but  had 
different line screens and we're, all in all, inferior printings  to the 
U.S. originals.  This is similar in that the poster is similar  art, but 
duotone.  I think this is at least a possibility.

but is a previously unknown copy that has surfaced!
One of four known copies to still exist of this style!

Hi Scott,

Thanks for the plug.  As many people already know, I list some items out
of my personal collection with inflated prices as a marketing tool.
With the tons of movie material on Ebay it's very easy to get lost in
the shuffle and many items don't get noticed.  I do this so people will
hopefully check out the rest of my items and maybe it will help sell the
less expensive stuff.  Although the FRANKENSTEIN Lobby Card Set is very
valuable it's definitely not worth $1,000,000.00 but I would sell it for
the right price.Since I see that I caught your attention, it
obviously worked!

Thanks again.

Best Regards,

Todd

Hey Todd,
   What a treat to see the whole set, in such incredible condition, all 
together with the original envelope. That's a first for me and I've been in 
this hobby for 33 years. I've seen, held and framed all of the cards 
individually but to see the whole set together in this manner is just great and 
you never know about that million dollars. There may be someone out there with 
money to burn who has to have it. Thanks for the peek!

Re: [MOPO] CITIZEN KANE On Ebay. Antiques Roadshow the Verified Appraiser?

2007-03-16 Thread Jon Warren

It's a poster printed for the library circuit. I had about a dozen of these
at one time, all different titles, but including the CK. From the 1950s,
they came from a theater owner who sold me a few thousand posters, and he
told me what these were. Back in the 50s, they would provide films for the
schools and libraries to show to the kids during summer.  These posters were
provided to help publicize the library showings.

hope this helps.

[MOPO] WHY FILM NOIR IS SO DAMN SPECIAL GREAT INFORMATIVE ARTICLE

2007-03-16 Thread Flixspix
Don't know how many of you guys read SLATE   but yesterday one of their 
critics  at  large  posted this  article regarding film noir as an overall 
observation in light of  a half  dozen titles just recently released on DVD.
 
Double Indemnity WC  available if anyone is  interested. by the way.
 
Cynics, sluts, heists, and murder most foul. 
By Stanley  Crouch 
Posted  Thursday, March 15, 2007, at 7:05 AM ET 

Film  noir evolved from the American crime thrillers that rose to pulp 
prominence  between 1920 and 1940. Hollywood took those tales and put the focus 
on 
cynics,  fall guys, sluts, heists, and murders most foul. The huge screens in 
movie  theaters provided lurid masks for the resentments that pulse within 
Americana.  Our hatred of the upper class and of goody-two-shoes morality got 
plenty of  play. So did our repulsive puritanical troubles with sexual 
attraction, 
our  reluctant but ultimate belief in the righteousness of force, and our 
tendency to  answer life's pervasive horrors with conspiracy theories. 

Noir's  popularity was inevitable. How could American audiences resist the 
combative  stance of an unimpressed hero whose ethos could be reduced to: Is 
that so? How  could they fail to be lured by all of the actresses cast as 
Venus' flytraps?  Everything in film noir takes place at the bottom, in the 
sewers 
of sensibility.  It holds that the force of the world is not only indifferent 
to, but obviously  bigger than, the individual, which is why personal 
satisfaction, whether illegal  or immoral, is the solution to the obligatory 
ride 
through an unavoidably  brittle universe. 

A black and white phenomenon, film noir is thought to  have achieved its 
greatest heights between 1945 and 1950, though the apparent  moment of final 
brilliance arrived in 1958's Touch of Evil, directed with the  heightened 
imagination of genius by Orson Welles. As a genre, film noir appeared  as an 
antidote 
to the Hollywood conventions of pristine character and fulfilled  romance 
because its creators sensed that rah rah was no longer the best  prescription 
for 
the blues. Possessed of a shrewd aesthetic that was both  meretricious and 
rebellious, film noir generously utilized sex and violence,  firmly rooting 
itself in American culture.  

A number of its most  influential directors were European Jews like Fritz 
Lang, Otto Preminger, and  Billy Wilder, all of whom had escaped the Nazis. The 
enthusiastic support of the  Third Reich by the German people had convinced 
such artists that conformity  always had to be questioned, ridiculed, and 
perhaps 
resisted. Another assumption  was that corruption hid behind images of a 
gilded civilization, high-class  refinement, uplift, and thorough social 
improvement. So, in one sense, Adolf  Hitler was a major player in forming the 
sensibility of film noir. That Austrian  boy whom Chaplin accused of having 
made off 
with his mustache had done it again  but, as usual, not in the way the 
paperhanger intended. 

With the  recently released two-disc DVD of 1944's Double Indemnity and the 
three volumes  of The Film Noir Classic Collection, one gets the essentials of 
the style and  all of the information necessary to recognize the school that 
the French saw  long before Americans did. Barbara Stanwyck, Claire Trevor, 
Jane Greer, and  Peggy Cummins are each but separately the brilliant stars of 
Double Indemnity;  Murder, My Sweet; Out of the Past; and Gun Crazy. They are 
the essential film  noir amalgamations of Eve, Salome, and Carmen: there to 
bring men down through  the pulsating syncopations of their glistening 
orifices. 
After but one night  with any of them, men were not only willing to bay at the 
moon of homicide but  snap at it with a determination that pushes a full 
circle of murder into the  air.   

Double Indemnity is the first film in which Billy  Wilder's impeccable talent 
as a director and a screenwriter came forward in full  force. It is also 
considered the first pure film noir. Though Stanwyck and Fred  MacMurray have 
been 
rightfully praised as the murderous lovers, they are nearly  overmatched by 
the imperishable skill of Edward G. Robinson. Robinson's extended  speeches are 
delivered like dark, probing arias—they are full of wit,  syncopation, and an 
intuitive recognition of the sinister that we learn is  essential to being a 
great insurance detective. There is no better performance  in all of film 
noir. 

Claire Trevor, an adroit master of subtle vocal  modulations, blooms downward 
in Murder, My Sweet, like a flower overladen with a  working girl's perfume. 
The actress appears lyrically jaded, but it is easy to  see how she helped 
define the femme fatale in an era when only allusion was  available. Opposite 
the 
spectacularly ominous Lawrence Tierney in Born To Kill,  Trevor projects a 
sexual longing that is realistic but never overstated,  compelling in its 
desperate but bungling confusion. Her performance

[MOPO] On Topic - What should I do?

2007-03-16 Thread Freedom Lover
Some of you may remember I bought a 3S Butch Cassidy a few months back.  I had 
it framed, unbacked (unmatted), with non-glare plexi and it was delivered today.

Well, it's buckling (rippling) along some of the fold lines.  It's the same 
thing that happened with a OS but that was backed and the problem was around 
the edge of the frame. 

My husband says, since I refuse to have it linenbacked, it must buckle due to 
the size and I can either leave it like that, or back it and try again.  I know 
for a fact that backed posters don't do this.

It this because of its size?  What do you all suggest I do?  Back it or leave 
it to buckle?  Either way, it loses value.  

I'm never planning on selling it, so that might be a factor to consider, as 
well.  

Thanks to all who respond.

Re: [MOPO] On Topic - What should I do?

2007-03-16 Thread Michael B
You see some rippling on unbacked one sheets, also.  A tighter-fit backing 
board does reduce this.  A slight curve on the backboard presses the poster 
into the glass decreasing the ripples.
 
BUTi have ripples on some linen pieces.
 
YESi have dozens of framed one sheets with ripples.  I 
have mint linen, also.  (Yet, i prefer unbacked.  I have often purchased a 
clean one sheet and sold my linen piece!!!)
 
I predict that the responses to your inquiry will turn into the old debate, 
linen vs. non-linen.
 
Start the tallying:  I HATE LINEN.  The fold lines are real. Adds to the 
CHARACTER!!!  Small tears and smudges are real.   Accept that this is a poster. 
 Removing the folds alters the original character.  
 
If it were my posterDONT ALTER IT
 
michael  
 
ps:  once in awhile, i get lucky and get an unfolded half or insert.  i prefer 
half sheets with just one fold.  etc., etc., etc.   EXTRA folds are the 
killers!!!

[MOPO] another ACCEPTABLE defect

2007-03-16 Thread Michael B
remember.posters, when handled way back when, were 
mishandled--even by the studios!!!
 
another acceptable defect is the bleeding of the stamp from the back of the 
poster, which can show (faintly or more aggressively) if the subject area in 
the front is white.
 
AGREE?   or do you pay a restorer to bleach?
