Happy New Year to  all  
I have been  gradually loading what I think will be the largest collection 
of long daybill  movie posters ever to be seen in one place. I know that 
might sound like a big  statement but I don’t know of anywhere else that has 
this many rare pre war  daybills. Long daybills were printed up until 1941 and 
often featured  spectacular and unique art. Many of them are incredibly 
rare and some may well  be the only known posters. I have listed a couple of 
hundred over the last  week or so. Some have sold very quickly and there are 
more to come over the  next week or so.  
They are well  worth a look ….

[MOPO] Stoned!

[Tommy Barr]

I have a Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone international one sheet with
that title. It has the cast montage with the late, great Alan Rickman in
front. The problem is that every other international one sheet with that
image seems to be titled Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone. Can
anyone throw any light on this, please?

[MOPO] AW: [MOPO] Best Actress: Underwhelming exhibition in Berlin

[martin last]

Thanks for your support Paul. 

 

I also went to that Estorick exhibition and felt exactly the same way – great 
to see so many large posters even if some were not the best they could have 
had. I can’t really remember the booklet. I think I made do with an calendar of 
Italian movie posters.

 

The Fotomuseum in Winterthur (near Zurich) sometimes has film-related 
exhibitions (e.g. “Blow-up” in 2014 and “Neorealismus” in 2007) but the number 
and quality of posters on show leaves a bit to be desired.  

 

Anybody been to the Turin museum?

Betreff: Re: [MOPO] Best Actress: Underwhelming exhibition in Berlin

 

I have to agree with you too Martin: I'd feel cheated to see a repro poster at 
a museum where they own the original. There are thousands of museums and 
galleries around the world where they display fragile items of arguably greater 
historical and cultural value (... and being film poster addicts that’s a point 
we may well argue). The Star-Spangled Banner at The Smithsonian is perhaps an 
extreme example, but I notice they're absolutely determined to have that on 
permanent display now. Even when I saw it 20 years ago, there was some sort of 
contraption to reveal it for a few minutes every hour. Yes, a balance has to be 
found as you say. Rotation, a separate area with controlled lighting, whatever. 
Ultimately, though, what's the point of keeping something for the public good 
if it's never going to be appreciated by the public?

 

I can't recall a particularly underwhelming film-related exhibition experience. 
I did have a near brush with disappointment at MoMA in New York though. While 
on a short trip in the 90s I had read that MoMA had an archive of movie 
posters, and so paid a visit hoping against hope they might have some on 
display. At first things looked promising, as I found 3 Saul Bass posters quite 
soon after entering. After that, though, there seemed to be nothing, so I just 
had to give up and resign myself to glancing at one or two modern art 
masterpieces :) At the end of my visit I decided a restroom break might be a 
good idea, and instinctively headed downstairs. All of a sudden I found myself 
surrounded by hordes of movie posters on walls and on columns. Paradise! It was 
the lobby area for the study rooms and theatres. I remember there was a Gilda 
style B and a Spellbound 3-sheet, but can't remember much else now. Perhaps 
some of our New York correspondents can confirm if they are still there.

 

Amongst the best exhibitions I've seen is probably Saul Bass at the Design 
Museum London 2004. (Yes another person who still likes Saul Bass!) I also used 
to be quite fond of the Museum of the Moving Image in London before it closed 
with its Magic Lanterns, Soviet Agit-Prop Train Carriage, and enthusiastic 
guides dressed up as Chaplin etc whom it was always a fun game to dodge. Just 
remembered one of the nicest small displays I've been to was a collection of 
Italian posters at the Estorick museum of Modern Italian Art again in London. 
Not all great posters, but really impressive to see so many posters of that 
size together. They also made the effort to print a decent illustrated booklet 
for what was quite a short exhibit. Glad you and Helmut mentioned the posters 
at the Berlin museum - love to go there someday, but I'm sure I would have felt 
a bit let down if I'd had no warning.

A few questions to members:

1.   Have you also had such underwhelming exhibition experiences?

2.   What do think about museums displaying copies?

3.   What is the best and worst  movie-related exhibition or museum you 
have ever visited?
