Re: [MOPO] Re-Releases
Evan, I didn't say that that these posters were worth more than the original year of issue posters. I said that there were some titles that had re-release posters that had enjoyed some appreciation. Certainly those two titles are examples of what I meant. There are a few titles where the reissue is a better poster than the original, in my opinion. The 1934 STATE FAIR comes to mind. The early Fox reissue is better than the original I think. There may be a poster where the reissue is worth more money than the original, but no examples come to mind immediately. What is true, I think, is that it is not unusual for a reissue poster to actually be scarcer than the original. I would cite NORTH BY NORTHWEST as an example of that. If you combine this fact with an appealing element of design - like the image of Hitch on Mount Rushmore - one can easily see why demand for a poster may be growing. A growing demand with a scarcer supply. Appreciation. Kirby On Aug 28, 2011, at 9:18 PM, Evan Zweifel wrote: There's really very few posters where a re-issue poster is worth more than the original. You mentioned two. I would add the re-issue 1-sheets for The Killers and The Pride of the Yankees. Are there others?? However, sometimes I wonder what would happen to the market for these re-issues, if the studio re-released the film now with a killer 1-sheet.

Re: [MOPO] Re-Releases
I think that the Universal Horror re-releases sell for about the same percentage that many other re-release posters bring. it's just their starting points for originals is so high that it makes it look like the re-releases bring an unusual percentage. Take the recent sale of the Werewolf Of London insert at Heritage for nearly $48,000. What does the re-release insert bring? Maybe 5% of that price on it's very best day and probably usually 3-4%. That seems like a pretty reasonable percentage for a re-release. Even what I would consider to be the King of re-release posters, the 1947 Dracula one-sheet (arguably the best poster on the film and possibly as rare as the original release one-sheets) which would bring a price greater than most any other film's original one-sheets could hope to sell for would only bring 12-15% of the price of a first release Dracula. - Original Message - From: Richard Halegua Comic Art To: MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU Sent: Sunday, August 28, 2011 7:59 PM Subject: Re: [MOPO] Re-Releases no Kirby he's referring to the fact that a 1931 Frankenstein poster is $250k, and that the 1938 re-issue is still a 10's of 1000$ poster that only a few can afford and why is this not true for those other titles. re-issues on those other titles are priced at a small % of original issues (Oz 1949 release cards being an exception) Frankenstein fans are only increasing, Rhett Butler fans peaked more than 30 years ago At 04:50 PM 8/28/2011, Kirby McDaniel wrote: Rich, I'll take all those original GONE WITH THE WIND and WIZARD OF OZ posters that you haven't sold.

Re: [MOPO] QUESTION FOR OUR MORE INTREPID MEMBERS
There is a good chance too, that the caricature poster was created by someone in the art department assigned to the film, at the studio. If that were the case, the name of the individual may never be known.
