Hallo MOPO I was wondering if anyone had ever produced a book of 24-sheet art?  The amazing large format paper on Universal horror is pretty well-documented (especially considering its non-existence) but I've come across some insanely brilliant 24-sh designs recently on non-horror titles

Hi Simon, sounds like a timely movie.  Fuller is a bit like Tourneur in that he could turn his hand to many genres with a very successful hit rate. movieposterdb.com has a few of the styles for Park Row.  They are nicely lurid, but probably didn't pick up many design awards!
