Believe that in 1969 it was still being shown in the original release.

Re: [MOPO] Curiouser and curiouser

[Richard Evans]

I posted something previously about an alternate printing of the The Ipcress 
File quad, with similarly lacks printer details, heard no theories.

Details here: http://stylec.yuku.com/topic/12127/Ipcress-File-quad

I’m not assuming anything worse than they ran low, and got some cheapo 
printings later in the original release.

Perhaps somewhat similar to French posters (Les Diaboliques for example) where 
there’s a more basic, cheaper printing which I understand is attributed to 
provincial screenings.

Re: [MOPO] Missing posters

Yep, they similarly had that on the quad snipe.

What’s the chance that concealed behind that price ticket graphic (could only 
find that Daily Mail image), Pinkie is clutching his cut-throat razor.

I doubt it. Isn’t it on the British paper for Spellbound that Peck dropped the 
razor?

Re-title paper seems rarer, but that said, a lot of what appears for original 
title is the Uk 1-sht, which perhaps luck preserved in reasonable numbers.

 Mind if I steer back a bit to daybills John? 
  
 Saw this news story recently about auction of some of Attenborough's 
 collection, and his copy of a Brighton Rock daybill, with The Worst Sin 
 title.
  
 At some point during release, Pathe pressed for a shorter cut and a change 
 of the title. Believe there was a The Worst Sin pressbook, and know 
 there's a quad out there with a snipe over original title.
  
 Don't recall seeing this daybill before, presumably very rare?
  
 And is that it for the daybill, just with that title?

  Franc is correct, that Filip's only intention was to come and start 
  trouble.
  
  facts are that the only time you hear from Filip is when he's posting 
  FS/FA or when he decides to troll Richie, which has been going on for 
  about 2 years
  
  now don't get me wrong that anyone can post to the group and there is 
  nothing wrong with posting about your stuff for sale, your 
  experiences in posterdom, your friendly associations with others, but 
  if your intent is to only come around and create trouble - which is 
  100% Filip's intention, then trouble will ensue in some form.
  
  My choice was to take it off the board, because I see no reason to 
  say what I have to say to this retarded fool to everyone in the group.
  But true to his trouble making intent, Filip posted it to the group.
  
  I have no idea why Filip has decided to troll me, as I had never had 
  a negative experience with him that I can recall, I had spent money 
  with him on a number of occasions and was happy with all my 
  purchases. I am fairly certain Filip never bought or bid on any of my 
  items, so clearly there can't have been a bad experience there.
  
  So it seems that one day Filip woke up with a bug up his behind and 
  started trolling. Of course, he used to troll someone else - on all 
  forums. In particular on NSF, and maybe because that person is not 
  here, Filip decided he needed a new target.
  Wrong target Filip. You'll get what you deserve when you troll me and 
  if you weren't going to like it, maybe you should have watched your 
  p's and q's as we say in America.
  
  sorry of you folks get to be in the middle, but maybe Filip will get 
  smart and stop being a fool.
  that's up to him.

Re: [MOPO] Wizard of Oz :: Real, Restored or Recreated.

[Richard Evans]

Am I right in thinking it was written as “Hackett” as well as “Hacket”.

The Bidl one reads to me as “Hackett”?

On Michael Organ’s page on printers, there are two from '39 recorded.

One as 
Daybill, lithograph. Hacket Offset Print Syd Melb., 14 3/4 x 40.

The other:
Daybill. 'Hackett Offset.' 14 x 40. 

http://www.uow.edu.au/~morgan/posters2.htm

I don’t know what kind of strictly enforced guidelines there were over what 
exactly was written at the bottom, is it possible it was pretty slack?

 Indeed possible (that the second word could say Hackett), although the 
 company name (which is printed on the Bidll copy) is in fact Hacket Offset 
 Print Syd Melb, why would they print their own name differently elsewhere?
 
 But...squint those misty, alcohol infused, aged eyes real tight and look 
 again, could that second word be Offset? Could the third word be Print? The 
 last two words I agree are Syd Melb. Certainly the owner of the HA copy is 
 about the only one who could shed light at this point.
 
 And the point you make is of course feasible (about printing in the two 
 different states), I guess one would have to wonder why for such a short run, 
 but of course it is possible. 
 
 Still a lot of cross checking to go.

 I was reacting to Jeff’s post.
 
 Agreed with everything, except assumption that one was drawn after the 
 other, and based on whichever was the earlier printing.
 
 May well be the case, but perhaps a little bit of a leap at this stage. And, 
 that would make one poster the lesser example.
 
 But, I’m not absolutely clear on the process, and whether there would have 
 been a piece of art that would have been followed, if there was more than 
 one printer used.
 
 Blowing up the Heritage one, doesn’t it look like the second word is 
 possibly “Hackett”? And the last two words I’m pretty certain are “Syd Melb”.
 
 Is it not feasible with Hackett having offices in Sydney and Melbourne, that 
 they could have printed at each?

This is hand drawn litho, yes?

And that is drawn directly onto the plate? (Or is that auto lithography? Or 
is that another name for that same thing along with stone litho?)

Need new plates, it's redone.

Or more than one set of plates, then it's done following the guidelines as 
closely as possible.

And if it's a big release, wouldn't it make sense to have more than one 
printer, rather than ship from one location?

Big place Oz. Think any conspiracy theory here may be going down the Red Brick

 paper quality, what time of day finished product was manufactured (printers 
 were less concerned as they continued to drink all day), indoor temperature

Re: [MOPO] Wizard of Oz :: Real, Restored or Recreated.

[Richard Evans]

David, yep, and it is interesting.

I was reacting to Jeff’s post.

Agreed with everything, except assumption that one was drawn after the other, 
and based on whichever was the earlier printing.

May well be the case, but perhaps a little bit of a leap at this stage. And, 
that would make one poster the lesser example.

But, I’m not absolutely clear on the process, and whether there would have been 
a piece of art that would have been followed, if there was more than one 
printer used.

Blowing up the Heritage one, doesn’t it look like the second word is possibly 
“Hackett”? And the last two words I’m pretty certain are “Syd Melb”.

Is it not feasible with Hackett having offices in Sydney and Melbourne, that 
they could have printed at each?

Re: [MOPO] Movie Poster Purchases...should have bought that one!

Maybe Goldfinger Double Crown. Just like that image without the title.
(Off the top of my head, I don't think there's anything else I'm interested in 
that has shot up wildly.)
Probably won't bother now, even though I imagine there's less interest in it 
than the quad, it's overvalued.
Had quads for that and the two preceding, including the FRWL premiere or 
whatever it is, if anyone wants to get into the ones I should have hung on to

 Film Noir is such a wide subjective range. Personally I have sold many but I 
 cannot say over the years multiples - the one I think was the best was the UK 
 Quad for To Have and to Have Not...arguably the best paper on the film.
 
 One that I get requested the most is Out of the Past one sheet - possibly the 
 best image of Mitchum ever.
 
 But does Blade Runner enter into the fray? - okay it's Sci Fi but it was 
 filmed in the noir style - for me this is the poster I have sold the most 
 that can be deemed a noir film.
 
 Does 12 Angry Men sneak into the noir genre? If so I have sold a few of them. 
 
 One that doesn't do me any favours yet the film is a noir classic is The 
 Asphalt Jungle - not an inspiring poster.
 
 I do like the Veronica Lake titles as well such as This Gun For Hire - that 
 does float my boat.

http://www.prometheus2-movie.com/gallery/view/img/87

Not sure how much the info on that site can be trusted, but posters that are 
unused concepts and wallpaper are described as such.

Also, possibly a Thai language one:
http://www.prometheus2-movie.com/gallery/view/img/87

But they don't genuinely appear to exist, or if so it seemingly would have been 
in very small numbers.

You could perhaps post a query on Allposterforum or Movieposterforum.

Saved search on Malaysian eBay wouldn't harm, same for Thai eBay. Not ideal 
having the title in  Thai, but be an probably be a major achievement even to 
get one of those.

This the way it's heading, collecting jpegs or files for your home digital 
poster display?

[MOPO] Red River quad

Anyone ever seen an original release quad? Always seems to be the style that I

 Hi Rich,
  
 This was discussed a while back on MPF, and LAMP was updated accordingly 
 http://www.learnaboutmovieposters.com/posters/db/release.asp?rid=18254.
 Looks like Ed has been cautious and classified the earlier quad as an early 
 re-release or 2nd printing too, though, since it differs slightly from the 
 pressbook image. The final poster isn't always identical to the pressbook of 
 course, but it does look kinda crude...

Re: [MOPO] Linen backing

[Richard Evans]

Beginning of my collecting coincided with Christies London's first sale in 95.
(Pretty sure it was their first sale, or first decent one, at least first Tony 
did I believe.)
At that time, I found linen backing was accepted practice generally, whether or 
not strictly speaking the condition of the piece demanded it. 
I bought into it, nasty folds were enough of a justification.
(Though perhaps not quite as automatic there then as now, I did buy posters at 
Christies that weren't backed, and were below condition A.)
I'd imagine the justification is that presenting cosmetically perfect posters 
is effective with their particular clientele.
Probably tricky to argue against, they do seem to get some very healthy results.

 I just had a look at Bruce's preview and I have to say it is pretty 
 amazing. What surprises me, though, is some of the posters which people 
 have gone to the expense of having linenbacked, and I wonder at what point 
 does that become a viable option. I am using EMP sales as an example here, 
 but I imagine it is the same across the board. 
 'The Big Hangover' (1950) is listed as 'good to very good' in linen, but 
 that is a poster which normally sells for around $20-25 in that condition, 
 folded. As having a poster backed and foldlines retouched by a reputable 
 restorer would cost at least $120, that means the poster should fetch 
 around $150 at least, but that is unlikely to be the case. 'Striptease' 
 (1996), again in very good condition maybe $25, but how much more would 
 you pay for one linenbacked?
 Taking just one example from EMP (though it is not hard to find others) - 
 'Bite The Bullet' (1985), very good, folded, sold for $4 last year, and 
 one in similar condition, linenbacked, sold for $28, also last year. That 
 means the added value for restoration and backing was only $24, probably 
 at least one fifth of the actual cost. So at what point does the expense 
 become worthwhile? I appreciate that, as a matter of personal taste, 
 someone may wish to have a poster framed and displayed to best advantage, 
 and so has it backed, regardless of actual value, but do they expect that 
 the cost will be recouped on resale? Really, I am just curious here, as I 
 would only ever have higher value posters backed. 
 Anyway, even the prices realised for higher value ones do not necessarily 
 always reflect the cost of restoration, something which I have gratefully 
 taken advantage of in the past, and hope I may do so again! Which, I have 
 to say, make EMP's Signature Auctions quite exciting events (no 
 remuneration was made by Bruce to have me highlight his listings, but hey, 
 I'm open to offers!)

Re: [MOPO] Poster grading

[Richard Evans]

A unified system wouldn't harm, but think it would still be compromised to some 
degree by subjectivity.

For instance, I'd assume Emovieposter would continue to provide unflattering 
grades, because the approach appears to be to exceed expectations, have 
pleasantly surprised, returning customers. And with so much sold presumably the 
last thing they'd want is issues with returns clogging up the machine.

Any grading is fine as an overview, but still need to make your conclusion 
based on a description of flaws.

Have found the vast majority of dealers to be very honest with condition 
descriptions, but you'll never avoid some sellers being disingenuous, and 
flattering in the description, or unforthcoming with details of flaws.

Still think using a set up for colour correct images (with a Pantone colour bar 
or the like) would be a good idea though.

 I am using Heritage as an example, but I hope nobody uses that as an excuse 
 for sniping, as I think we all suffer from a mote in the eye here. In a 
 recent auction HA had this poster - 
 http://movieposters.ha.com/c/item.zx?saleNo=161410lotNo=52344.
 
 I noticed it was the same poster  as previously sold by them - 
 http://movieposters.ha.com/c/item.zx?saleNo=161253lotNo=50302.
 
 The only difference was that the grading had moved from ‘fine’ to ‘fine+’. I 
 contacted HA to enquire about that and received a reply from Grey Smith. ‘If 
 items are reconsigned with us, we have a team grading and evaluating each 
 lot for condition ignorant of its previous sale. Naturally, grading will 
 always be subjective to a degree.’ I replied that while I accepted grading 
 as subjective I did not think it unreasonable to expect consistency from the 
 same source, and it would appear that the present team is more lenient in 
 its appraisal than that of the recent past, as is evidenced by yet another 
 poster previously rated ‘fine-‘ which has now been promoted to ‘fine’. 
 http://movieposters.ha.com/c/item.zx?saleNo=161410lotNo=52506
 
 http://movieposters.ha.com/c/item.zx?saleNo=161246lotNo=53484
 
 I received no reply to that.
 
 Now I appreciate that we are dealing with quite fine distinctions here, but 
 grading is important. Having large images to view is all very well, but it 
 does not show everything. Wrinkles do not always show well, and there are no 
 images of the back of the poster so the amount of tape or writing there 
 relies on description.
 
 The main problem I find, though, is one of comparison. Is HA’s ‘fine’ the 
 equivalent of EMP’s ‘good’ (and surely ‘good’ meaning ‘not very good’ is one 
 of the worst anachronisms)?  HA does at least assign a numerical value to 
 the rating, and other sites such as MoviePosterBid and MoviePosterExchange 
 do use numbered grading, but there still often appears to be some difference 
 in values as, for example, MPX seem to be very critical and often have 
 posters as low as 2 or 3 which I expect others might have as a 4 or 5. The 
 majority of eBay sellers are quite happy to describe their wares as 
 ‘excellent’, and major auction houses such as Christie’s simply have an 
 A,B,C rating system.
 
 I like the iguide.net numerical system, and should something like that not 
 now be accepted as an approved standard? CGC and third party grading would 
 seem to have limited appeal, but there is no reason why a unified system 
 cannot be applied. It is surely long overdue, as Alan Adler's post of Jan 
 2006 demonstrates - 
 
   A unified grading system would be fantastic.
 It will happen - just a question of when.
 Look to Overstreet's comic guide and the pages on grading comics and
 find a useful and well-organized list of criteria that has worked well for 
 the comic world.
 Overstreet even has a book out devoted only to grading of comics.
 It has photos of every grade - using a number scale - 1-100 I think -but 
 could be wrong.
 Check it out at the bookstore or library.
 There is no reason this can not be accomplished for movie posters -
 Even though there are a number of sizes - the same rules set forward for 
 grading movie paper can work for all with minor notations.
  
 Eight years later but still it hasn't happened, but the idea must be 
 appealing. At least we would then be able to view and compare posters based 
 on mutual assumptions, and also be able to compare the rigour of the dealers 
 in their appraisals.

Is there perhaps by implication another internet auctioneer running three

promotional posts?

And since the posts will be to some degree proportionate to the number of 
auctions, is the issue more the actual number of auctions, and the amount of 
paper being brought to market?

Just curious.

I'd find the future of the hobby or even the current state of it an interesting 
topic. Lot of paper out there now, or at least far more easily available than 
it was once. The middle class are earning less in real terms, have less 
disposable income and we no longer have the easy credit culture which I imagine 
was some factor for a boom in this stuff 15 odd years ago.

And without wanting to get into the politics, a lot more of the money is going 
to the top and they're not going to be interested in anything other than 
setting insane new records for the more fashionable names in modern art.

(Just a general interest, dumped a lot of stuff, what's left is there for 
enjoyment, if it goes up in value that's a bonus.)

Meanwhile there's that unnamed behemoth shifting a hell of a lot of paper for 
its true worth, or perhaps depending on your point of view, ruining values.

May not be appropriate for open discussion, just thought I felt a little bit of 
an undercurrent.

The number of FS and the like haven't felt excessive to me. Don't mind seeing 
them in case there's something I'm interested in, and pretty easy to ignore and 
bin if not.

And besides, I think Kirby is right, I don't imagine putting a cap on it would 
increase discussion.

This is a good resource,

Though whether all the illustrations attributed on there to Kallis are

Also, contains links to pages from '88 Cinefantasique magazine interview with 
Kallis.

As valuable as that is, there's still stuff that could be covered.

Kallis is still with us, (page has link to Kallis Foundation site), and if he's

 My eyes not attuned enough to tell from the style, but doesn't look like a

Re: [MOPO] Mopo Statistics

[Richard Evans]

Oh right, so NSFGE was the one excluded. Presumably declared dead.
Why don't either one of you two pop over and post something there? Pretty 
effective traditionally for a escalation in posts.

 The other two movie poster forums are pretty dead as well. Certainly many

 this is untrue
 
 All Poster Forum always is busy and Movie Poster Forum has been gaining

Re: [MOPO] Our 19th Birthday: Not Dead Yet!

[Richard Evans]

Congrats.

Think there's life in this one yet.

By comparison far more activity than NSFGE.

Surprised that Allposter is quiet, see that as the next generation. Should 
still have buckets of enthusiasm, whereas NSFGE longer in the tooth.

Exodus to Facebook no doubt a factor, but Latest Acquisitions thread slowed 
down considerably quite some time back.
Just don't think there's as much disposal income around that there was.

Believe there is actually a third forum. Hmmm no, can't put my finger on it.

Never got on with Facebook, but there's a small, exclusive set that Tweet. RAP 
(Tony Nourmand), Kirby and Posteritati.

 How interesting that Helmut posted his analysis of MoPo posts from the past 
 week TODAY, which just happens to be MoPo’s 19th birthday. As Bruce then 
 commented, the other 2 existing poster forums “are pretty dead” as well. Are 
 we really all talked out? Has Facebook taken over the world? Is MoPo an 
 Internet dinosaur and no longer necessary? Questions to ponder…but first, as 
 I always do every February 24th, a brief review of MoPo history…
  
 On February 24, 1995 the first official MoPo post was distributed via 
 American University’s listserv. For a few weeks prior to that launch date, 
 the handful of original MoPo members simply cc’d their e-mail messages to the 
 other people in the group (there were 11 at the beginning). In keeping with 
 my annual tradition, I’d like to recognize those MoPo pioneers:
  
 Mahtab Moayeri, Michael Danese, Rob Ellis, Donna Tschetter, Goh Kai Shen, 
 Evan Zweifel, George Nichol, Cindy Nemeth-Johannes, Adam Ehrlich, myself 
 (your humble listowner) and AOL’er Static555—real name Jeff Static. Michael, 
 Rob and Evan are still members. Cindy sadly passed away in June 2008, but her 
 husband Jay has taken her place on MoPo. Hats off to all the MoPo originals!
  
 I’d also like to send out my annual thank you to American University, our 
 generous host. I’m surprised, but grateful, they continue to maintain their 
 listserv system, a relic from the early days of the Internet. Yes, it has 
 limitations (no fancy graphics, mail delivery issues) but it still serves our 
 intimate group well.
  
 Happy 19th Birthday MoPo! But will we make it to 20? Should we?
  
 My deepest thanks to all of you for the ride (so far) and for however long it 
 lasts!
  
 Scott
 MoPo List Owner

 THERE IS A REALLY NICE SELECTION OF POSTERS CLOSING TONIGHT, AND THE ONLY WAY 
 I CAN FIGURE WHY THERE ARE SO MANY VERY LOW PRICES AT THE CURRENT BIDS IS 
 THAT PEOPLE ARE WAITING FOR THE LAST HOURS TO PLACE THEIR BIDS, BUT AT THE 
 CURRENT PRICES THERE ARE REALLY ASTONISHINGLY GREAT DEALS!
 
 I just looked over these 850 non-U.S. posters from 24 different countries, 
 and many of the prices on these are really hard to believe! With just a few 
 hours to go, the items include 56 items with no bids (7%), 226 items at $1 or 
 with no bids (27%), 257 items at $2 or less (30%), 294 items at $3 or less 
 (35%), 344 items at $4 or less (41%), and 376 items at $5 or less (44%)!
 
 HELLO! This is 2014 and I doubt you could have purchased many of these items 
 for $5 (or far under) 20 years ago!  And you can get as many of these items 
 as you want sent in one package anywhere in the U.S. for just 11 dollars 
 shipping for all (or actual cost anywhere else), EVEN IF you win 100 or more! 
 And if you are in our e-mail club (over 8,300 members), you get SEVEN 
 full-color books as an added bonus if you purchase 15 items (no matter how 
 inexpensive)! We are almost completely out of these bonus books and will end 
 this promotion VERY soon.
 
 Are THESE $1 posters (and remember that we are talking a REAL $1, and NOT $1, 
 plus $14 buyers premiums)? They WILL be if no one else bids:

 These are just SIX of the 226 posters currently at ONE DOLLAR! Almost ANY 
 dealer would ask $10, $20, or more for each, and there truly are similar 
 incredible bargains at EVERY price level!
 Of course, once you get OVER the lowest priced items, you start hitting lots 
 and lots of better titles, but an awful lot of those are currently at VERY 
 reasonable prices, far under what some of them have sold for in the past (the 
 ones we can find any record of selling in the past!). Here are images and

 I posted this on Facebook and animation expert Jerry Beck said the reason for 
 the one-sheet featuring Jiminy Cricket was likely because When You Wish Upon 
 a Star had become a huge hit after the movie came out, and that makes sense 
 to me.
 
 But Helmut's observation is also correct. We often forget that theaters would 
 have lots of posters on display, sometimes cutting them up and re-arranging 
 them into home-made special displays.

 Obviously, the onesheet in itself is pretty boring, to say the least. 
 However, imagine both the one-sheet AND the three-sheet combined on display 
 in front of the cinema: Completely different story. To me, both posters in 
 combination work extremely well. With the large puppet on the 3s and all the 
 secondary characters on the 1s, the overall impression must've been really 
 nice.
  
 Helmut
 
 
 The first time I saw this 1945 Pinocchio re-release one-sheet many years ago 
 I thought it quite odd for two reasons. 
 
 First, it was from just five years after the initial release, and yet the 
 movie was re-titled to Wonderful Adventures of Pinocchio, but what was much 
 more odd was that the poster almost doesn't have Pinocchio on it (see the 
 below image)!
 
 
 
 I guessed at that time that maybe the movie wasn't so popular the first 
 go-round, and so maybe they were trying to get it off of just being about the 
 wooden puppet and onto the great secondary characters (which might also have 
 explained the name change).
 
 But then recently I auctioned the three-sheet from this 1954 re-release, 
 which I had never had before, and it has the same re-titling, and yet it has 
 a huge image of Pinocchio (see the below image) so that seems to shoot the 
 above theory!
 
 
 
 The R54 three-sheet sold for $443. The R45 one-sheet (closing tomorrow at 
 http://auctions.emovieposter.com/Bidding.taf?_function=detailAuction_uid1=3235865)
  is currently at $105.
 
 There are also 998 other folded one-sheets closing Sunday at 
 http://www.emovieposter.com/agallery/sort/4/15.html, and with less than a day 
 to go, there are still over half the items at $5 or under.

Re: [MOPO] Lewis Collins RIP

My parents bought me one of those Starsky, chunky cardigan type things.

Great era, other favourites were Kojak, Harry O and Cannon. Last two having the 
brilliant gimmicks of an inoperable bullet injury and morbid obesity preventing 
them from chasing the perps.

The New Avengers also catered to a developing interest at that age, (Purdey).

 Subject: [MOPO] Lewis Collins RIP
 
 Granted Martin Shaw was the better classically trained and overall better 
 actor between the two. Had Collins been given the chance at Bond he would 
 have fit quite well straight after Moore due to his comic timing and true to 
 life action ability – doing his own stunts and SAS training and acceptance. 
 Furthermore, the womanising aspect that he cultivated in the Professionals 
 fits in nicely with the character of Bond. He would of got my Vote as Bond 
 instead of Moore doing A View To a Kill looking like a Grandad.
  
 Yes, the Italian action films he made were not the best and did not do his 
 career any good but as Michael Caine has said in his books, the role of an 
 actor is simple, “stay employed”. Caine said of JAWS The Revenge, If someone 
 is going to pay you 50,000 to spend a week in the Bahamas all expenses paid, 
 you would be made not to do it. Collins next big piece of success in my 
 opinion was his excellent supporting role to Caine in the TV mini Series 
 “Jack The Ripper” that won Caine a Golden Globe.
  
 Collins did only spasmodic acting post his Ripper days (maybe he suffered 
 from type casting) which is a shame as I believe he had depth beyond been an 
 action man. He moved to LA where he took a course in being a Director (which 
 he completed) with the view of getting behind the camera and finding work in 
 America but like so many others this proved problematic. The computer 
 industry was growing and Collins had an eye for it and before long he had his 
 own business and was very successful at it.  They remade “The Professionals” 
 in 1999 but unsuccessfully as we all know. Collins was approached to play a 
 Gordon Jackson type role as head of ‘CI5’ however prior to release but 
 negotiations broke down and Edward Woodward stepped in and the series only 
 lasted 13 episodes. Collins as the record looks now, left acting at the 
 doorstep by 2002 with a stint on the long running British crime drama “The 
 Bill”. Fitting really that he gained worldwide fame on a British crime TV 
 show and his last performance was on another worldwide British crime TV show.
  
 Personally, I had always hoped he would return to the screen big or small.
  
 He was a part of my Saturday nights as a teenager as one half of the 
 professionals and given the chance could have been so much more later on!

Re: [MOPO] The L.A. Public Library movie poster collection

[Richard Evans]

Described as being:

Movie Posters Collection
From the special collections of the Frances Howard Goldwyn Hollywood Regional 
Branch Library, this collection spans from the earliest years of the motion 
picture industry to the World War II era.

And:

Over 1,500 posters and lobby cards are in the collection. They range from 
Charlie Chaplin's Tango Tangles, 1914 to contemporary films...and thanks to a 
number of generous donors, there is a good representation of the B movies 
from the 1930s, such as The Pay-Off (1930), Dr. X (1932, and Girl Missing 
(1933). There are four hundred lobby cards from the Mexican cinema of the 1940s 
to 1970s.

I was pretty impressed until the last line.

Re: [MOPO] Original poster art?

[Richard Evans]

Think we can all forgive a bit of self aggrandisement. But Bill Gold went 
further than that, claiming credit for Clockwork Orange, when the work 
(design/illustration/type) was done by Phillip Castle working directly to 
Kubrick in the UK. (Kubrick for the first time having complete control over the 
marketing, essentially taking the role of creative director).

Just some extremely minor/unnecessary changes were made at Gold's studio to the 
type. Nothing worse than a credit thief in my book.

But as despicable as that behaviour is, I wouldn't completely write off his 
contribution to the work he was responsible for in favour of the illustrators 
he hired . 

In this context I do see Illustrator as a far more accurate term than 
artist, though it is perhaps less flattering.
 
These are rarely artists left to their own devices with complete creative 
freedom, they're illustrating other people's concepts, an element of the 
design. (Though of course illustrators can also be responsible for the 
design/art direction.)

To me ideas, invariably (depending on the quality of them) are more important 
than whoever's chosen to illustrate them, albeit an extremely talented 
commercial artist. Or the other really talented commercial artist who gets the 
job if the first one isn't available or screwed it up.

I don't think Gold's campaign for Bullitt, for example, is too shoddy, but to 
my eye there's no artist (illustrator) involved, it's photomontage. 
Write off photomontage, and you write off a lot that is widely accepted as 
Art, (Constructivism, Dada, Pop Art).

No artist made that a decent campaign. Day off, at home painting a vase of 
flowers.

Not forgetting that also essential to the Art when it comes to movie posters, 
along with the concept, is the type, whether executed by the Lettering Artist, 
typesetter, or even the illustrator. 

The Art of it, with posters (movie or other) is the whole package.

I'd class the likes of McKnight Kauffer, Cassandre and Abram Games as artists, 
great poster artists, but they were responsible for all of it, and to a not too 
shabby standard.

 on Bill Gold, I have read material he is quoted in etc and I think he's very

 the posters don't work because he was the art director, they work because the

 an artist is the person who does the art. I used to issue print catalogs. I 
 did about 20 of them and collectors seek out these catalogs for their 
 informational data  for pictures of the great art I have sold. When I would 
 do them, I would contract an artist to do an illustration for the cover. I 
 always gave them an idea of what I wanted it to look like as a basic outline. 
 I wouldn't consider that I was th artist in any fashion, even though when I 
 decide to sit down and do something myself, I'm not too, though I do have 
 some art training and that certainly helps.
 
 in my world, you're only an artist when you put pen to paper or brush to 
 canvas
 
 by the way, we have at least one former art director on this forum (unless he 
 has unsubbed). Richard Del Belso served for 20 years as a poster art director 
  advertising man for either WB or MGM or one of the biggies, I don't recall 
 which.. I keep meaning to call him and say hello.. Maybe now is the time. But 
 I very much doubt he would call Bill Gold the artist on any of those posters

 I'm sure that quite a few of the posters he's involved with in have little

 text. For instance, you can have no doubt that anything Gold might have 
 said to Frazetta about doing the painting to the Gauntlet is restricted to 
 do you wanna do a poster for Clint as Fritz wouldn't even bother using 
 someone else's sketch layout as an image source, so Gold's total input on 
 such an item is very small and if you consider that he probably had 
 typesetters in his offices - he may not even have placed text, making his 
 entire contribution assigning the work. He would be in a similar 

Re: [MOPO] Ice Station Zebra lenticular poster repairable?

[Richard Evans]

Does this happen that often? Postal workers with such an interest in movie 
ephemera that they'll risk their jobs to acquire relatively low value items.

I'm probably unfairly suspicious in these circumstances, having previous 
experience of winning something and the seller, not being happy with the low 
result, sending an empty package but with his own subtle slit in the tape but 
too small for the poster to pass through.

Still, that empty plastic sleeve really does seem a strong evidence that it was 
once in there. I think I was similarly inclined, I think I'd find it more 
convenient to have away with it in the sleeve.

Re: [MOPO] Josephine baker

[Richard Evans]

Original the art was by Paul Colin.

There's a lot out there frequently sold as original with art by someone signing 
as Caron. 

Done far later, though still printed with 1927 date. 

Similar but a quite horrible reinterpretation/reproduction.

 A friend recently got a job at WarnerBros. and I wanted to get her a gift for

 Looking for a poster, lobby, photos, yearbook or any other memorabilia that 
 has the Studio logo prominently featured and would look great on a wall or 
 somewhere in the office.
 Want to spend a max of $200.

Re: [MOPO] POSTER WITHIN A FILM

[Richard Evans]

That's a great one.
UFA bunging up worthless, leftover posters as set dressing.

Really like the use of the Call Me Bwana poster in From Russia With Love, 
though presumably a studio mock up.

 There are lots of cases of movie posters in the background of other movies. 
 One of my personal favorites is in The Maltese Falcon. As Bogart arrives on 
 the crime scene of his murdered partner, in the background we can clearly 
 see a one sheet posted to a wall for Swing Your Lady-- a film Bogart hated 
 and claimed he never made... It was just a guy that looked like him. John 
 Huston was obviously having some fun at Bogart's expense.

 Last night I watched a DVD of the
 Ronald Neame film, THE MAN WHO NEVER WAS (1956).  There
 is a scene in the film where two cars are en route to a
 destination.  In one of the shots, in the background,
 there is a billboard for HITLER'S CHILDREN.  I couldn't
 make out much of the art on the poster, but the title
 was clearly evident.  These kinds of contextual
 juxtapositions are common in movies today, but in this film
 that poster - it looks to be a British six sheet - could
 just
 as easily  have been any 1942 film.  Why HITLER'S
 CHILDREN?  I can't help but believe there was a kind of
 knowingness in that choice.  For those of you who have
 not
 seen the movie, it concerns an effort to deceive the German
 military as to the true location of Allied invasion of
 Europe.
 
 What do you remember about movie posters in films? 
 When are they just props and when do they comment on
 something?  Incidentally, the DVD from Netflix
 was a quite respectable transfer of a CinemaScope
 picture.  Not Blu-Ray, though.

 I imagine many people here remember his Cryptkeeper Halloween

 eBay, where every item would have an extremely high reserve, but he
 got an
 awful lot of people to pay those very high prices, and he was an
 important
 part of the dramatic rise of prices on 1940s and 1950s horror sci-fi
 over
 the late 1990s and early 2000s.
 
 He really loved the posters he bought and sold.

Think it was a Taxi Driver quad and an Apocalypse Now! locandina, from the

Didn't realise until over 10 years later, alerted by a sale at Christies, that 
there was a whole hidden world out there for serious collecting.
Kicked things off proper with an On The Waterfront 1-sht, former property of

Re: [MOPO] DeLuca, Heritage, featured in tomorrow's WSJ

[Richard Evans]

I'm thinking more jazz/psychedelia/acid rock.
Like Peter Green's End Of The Game.
Personal favourite, though many do find it unlistenable.
Final thing he did before they wiped out his circuits with the ECT, and he came 
back more normal.

  Miles Dewey Davis III (May 26, 1926 – September 28, 1991) was an
  American jazz musician, trumpeter, bandleader, and composer. Widely
  considered one of the most influential musicians of the 20th
  century,[3] Miles Davis was, with his musical groups, at the
  forefront of several major developments in jazz music, including
  bebop, cool jazz, hard bop, modal jazz, and jazz fusion.

  anal retentiveness and jazz , now that's quite a large subject ,
  jazz in itself is very very often a tinly little box where everyone
  plays like most did before them calling themselves jazz musicians
  too , the only times that i feel free when making music is here when
  i'm in africa with young musicians who have not as yet fallen into
  the rules trap . I prefer most music that can not get any label nor
  box as it's pretty much unlike anything you've heard before ... 
  same goes for movies filip

   I dont think proper spelling would help that article a bit..
   It has no facts and leaves out the basics like who the people are.
   I would prefer Typos with a good story over a lame lackluster
  story
   with no details...
   If more people payed attention to communication over anal
   retentiveness on useless perfections we may get somewhere..
   I think thats why I like Jazz is because the artist break the
   common accepted rules and dance out of the Box... on the box edge
  and
   around the box... but thats just me perhaps.

   recently, when I was in that supermarket of Hell.. the store so large it
   stretches across 4 time zones and has 3 languages.. aka Wal Mart.. 
   I was looking at videos and saw several 4 movie sets for great stuff so I
   picked up a Bogart disc with 4 great WB classics (the repartee in Across 
   the
   Pacific is hilarious), Marx Bros, Hitchcock and they even had a Kubrick 4
   movie package. I didn't need 2001 or the Shining, but the disc has Barry
   Lyndon and Eyes Wide Shut.
   
   anyway.. I haven't watched Barry in years and just got to the 
   intermission.
   
   really, a much better film than I remembered, although I always felt it 
   was
   better than people would say. But it's also a pretty good comedy at times
   and on one level, like all Kubrick films.. it is one weird trip

Re: [MOPO] As The Dracula Lawsuit Turns - Final Update

[Richard Evans]

Good of you Kirby.

For what it's worth, (and that's admittedly very little) I decided when all 
this crap started that any future work needed would go to Studio C. Though to 
be honest collecting has really slowed down recently and it tends in the main 
just to the be larger paper I'd want backed.

Prior to all this I was really impressed by what I saw of Poster Mountain. 
Wouldn't go anywhere near them now.

 Hi All - I did not think that this would result in so much response both 
 here and on other forums.  A few comments to address some of the questions 
 that have come up:
  
 When I received the initial complaint, I did not ignore it.  I retained an 
 attorney in New Jersey to handle the response.  When it became apparent that 
 I would not be able to keep counsel, I figured I would represent myself.  
 New Jersey court informed me that due to my company being a corporation, I 
 was not allowed to.  At this point I knew the end result would be a Default 
 Judgment. So it was no surprise to me.
  
 On another forum there has been some discussion about restorers and their 
 obligation to their clients vs moral obligation to the hobby.  In this case, 
 I did the restoration, knowingly restored incorrect information at the 
 bottom, setting up a red flag on this poster.  This poster was sent to John 
 Davis for authenticity, my red flag was changed, obviously to further 
 authenticate the poster.
 I publically stated my concerns about the poster and, well, we all know what 
 happened then.
  
 I had planned, well in advance, for the potential ramifications of this 
 case.  This will not close Studio C, we are alive and well. 
  
 We have all had unfair things happen to us in our life and this happens to 
 be one of mine.  It is just money and thieves/crooks, not really important 
 stuff. That being said, it has still been such a help receiving all the 
 encouraging words from all of you and you will always have my very heartfelt 
 appreciation.

Happy memories really. Loved him when I was a child, remember Hans Christian

 * I confess the confusion was all my doing, since corrected in my post below 
 Zeev's and Rick's reactions.  I have been privy to and peripherally involved 
 with press machinations about this story since mid-June 2012 with the 
 Hollywood Reporter, the London Guardian, the NY Times, the WSJ and Variety, 
 the latter three publications passing because they weren't afforded 
 exclusivity or new angles beyond Andy Lewis' initial report about 
 Metropolis - in which Sean Linkenback directly participated to boost 
 traffic to his fledgling poster sales site - before breaking ties with with 
 his former business partner Ken Schacter after his legal troubles were 
 exposed.
 
 * While I've been in contact with the the main names, e.g., plaintiff Robert 
 Mannheim and others involved in the litigation - EXCLUDING Schacter's defense 
 team - (who no doubt regard me as a pest) - it's noteworthy that Mr. Mannheim 
 has never been directly quoted in any interviews published thus far in the 
 media - beyond words filed on his behalf in legal motions which are part of 
 the public record.  I have provided background interpretation upon request to 
 writers - as a former collector with experience handling the press.  
 
 * With respect to Ralph DeLuca's involvement with the press and whether he 
 had an opportunity to say no comment or to stay quiet about his role - it 
 is my understanding that he himself did not engage the press proactively as, 
 for example, Sean did with his for sale notice of Metropolis on his Movie 
 Poster Exchange site - which in my view, was partially responsible for 
 transforming Schacter's bankruptcy filing from a Chapter 11 restructuring - 
 to a Chapter 7 liquidation - briefly besmirching his website's name after it 
 was pulled without initial comment.  
 
 * In my view, DeLuca may have chosen to guide the moving train rather than 
 being dragged behind it, especially after his name appeared in public 
 documents as the chosen liquidator of record, e.g., a buyer willing to 
 accept conditions enabling competing bidders to top his price.   This 
 unusual arrangement eliminates red-tape, delays and fees associated with the 
 liquidation of that portion of Schacter's collection subjectively regarded 
 as most desired.  The only question in my mind is whether this method of 
 auctioneering - if one dares call it that - will fetch a price greater than 
 what that might be achieved by a top-notch consignor with all the marketing 
 muscle to reach persons OUTSIDE OUR HOBBY, e.g., executives in the FILM 
 INDUSTRY and other blue-bloods WORLD-WIDE.  
 
 * In my view, only Hershenson, Heritage, Christie's, Bonham's, et. al. - and 
 not Ralph DeLuca - have a customer base numbering into the thousands -  who 
 live in scores of countries around the world - (including those in Germany, 
 the country of origin of record) - to reach the type of wealthy buyers who 
 might be interested in Metropolis. - d.

 This is so typical of the way these stories go:  
 
 David lists three posters and 5 other.  That makes a total of 8 items.  Andy  
 Lewis, in the first line of his report, talks about the “Metropolis” and none 
 other prize pieces.  This makes it 10 items.  Then, in the body of the story, 
 Mr. Lewis twice says that the Metropolis plus 8 others, that’s 9 in total, 
 are about to be purchased by DeLuca for $700,000.  Hello boys, is anybody 
 counting?  I know these posters kept appearing and disappearing but this is

 CGC Adds Mini Window Cards to Services
 
 
 Certified Guaranty Company (CGC) has added mini window cards to its movie 
 lobby card grading services. CGC employs a 10-point grading scale for lobby 
 cards and mini window cards based on the industry standard scale used for 
 comics and magazines pioneered by CGC in 1999, the company said.
 
 “The same accurate, consistent and impartial grading that has made CGC the 
 preeminent comic and magazine grading company lends itself to movie lobby 
 cards and mini window cards,” the company said in a written statement.
 
 “Known throughout the hobby as the world’s most experienced and accurate 
 third-party grading service, CGC has established itself over the last 13 
 years as the premier place to have your comics, magazines, photos and lobby 
 cards certified. CGC’s lobby card encasement is a sealed and tamper-evident 
 holder of a heavy gauge archival plastic with binder holes. The fully 
 transparent front and back allows complete viewing of the card and protects 
 from any improper handling or soiling. If an owner wants to remove the card 
 from the holder they can merely cut the holder open and remove the card, 
 although that would nullify the grading,” they said.

 I watched Park Row 1952 by Sam Fuller for the first time last night, great 
 ‘little’ film about a visionary newspaper man played by Gene Evans who tries 
 to get his own newspaper off the ground called the Globe, the name of the 
 newspaper probably gives you some idea of the mans aspirations for his paper.
  
 I suppose the essence of the story is journalistic freedom and that is so 
 important especially with the Murdoch hacking scandal still with legs in it. 
 Phineas Mitchell (Gene Evans) the aspiring newspaper man  comes out with a 
 great quote in the film “The press is good or evil according to the character 
 of those who direct it.” This rings so true in the modern era of the papers, 
 because to be truthful I do not know what paper to read anymore in this 
 country, the UK, I rarely get the real news because real journalism seems to 
 be a less important thing, is there any paper in the world that reflects the 
 ethical responsibility it should have to the public from it’s owner or 
 controller because I can’t find one.
  
 Sam Fuller says something that I see allot of now, in fact I would say it’s 
 endemic within the news corporations and I quote “I detest seeing newspapers 
 judge and condemn men, without any motive but to use their power to destroy. 
 The fascist do that.” It seems to me that papers of the left and right employ 
 the same tactics of the fascists when going after certain individuals and I 
 find it repulsive. Anyway a great film again by Fuller one of America’s most 
 resonant directors and story tellers.
  
 Also is there a decent poster for this film because I can’t find one? Shame 
 really.

Re: [MOPO] R.I.P. Movie Collector's World 1976-2012

International following seen as key to survival.
The Guardian (which I really hope will be a survivor) has 2/3 of its online 
readership outside the UK, and half of that is the US.
Unfortunately, it's our Daily Mail with highest international online readership 
having recently overtaken NY Times.
Feels like a good thing to me that I'm now in the habit of following various 
foreign news sources.

I believe the news source that gets the lion's share of my time are the

 Yesterday there were rumours (reported by the Telegraph) that the Guardian is

 Hate to make predictions, but I think the print edition of the New York Times 
 will fail and they'll go all-digital within five years.  Its parent
 company is bleeding red ink every day despite the fact that its website is
 among the most visited on the entire Internet.  To stem the bleeding, it 
 recently put up a paywall that limits readers to 10 articles a month, but 
 there are many workarounds for that.  When people have a choice with their 
 pocketbooks, they won't pay for something - no matter how liked - that they 
 can get for free.
 
 Conversely, the WSJ, which has always had a paywall - continues to post gains 
 with its print AND digital editions - and remains the largest circulation 
 daily in the U.S. with a whopping 2.1 million print subscribers and growing.  
 It's puzzling to see the fortunes of the 2 most dominant papers in the U.S. 
 moving in opposite directions.  However one feels about the infamous Ruper 
 Murdoch, the WSJ - to my eyes, anyway - has not changed into a tabloid filled 
 with screeds and diatribes - like you still find in other Murdoch papers in 
 the U.S., the U.K. and Australia.  The character of the WSJ has changed 
 visually, with color pages throughout and way more features about movies, 
 auctions and the arts; but its political biases are firmly stuck in its 
 editorial and letters-to-the-editor sections, (which I tend to skip) - and 
 not in places like Arts and Leisure in competing national papers.  I think 
 the only other daily national newspaper that may survive five years from 
 now - will be USA Today, which strikes me as a headline service (sort of 
 like TV) - for travelers and people on the go. -d.

 So much of my own collection are items I bought from dealers I met
 through MCW. I was there at the beginning and for many years, as a
 collector, couldn't wait for the latest copy to get to me. It was a
 genuine thrill to open it up and see all the fun stuff for sale.
 Brian and family are great people and, later as a advertiser, they
 helped me immensely making sure every detail was covered. I wish them
 all the best of luck and extend enormous thanks for their

 good question. I have been watching this for a while and have been thinking 
 the same. Whilst I think this is a good forum to alert people to what paper 
 is available to be purchased for both buyer and seller I think there has to 
 be a happy medium or people will want to opt out. The same person on a 
 daily basis seems too much for me, once a week would be fine for the avid 
 collector and seller to connect,
 
  
 
 I am keen to hear what Scott or others think on this topic?

Re: [MOPO] I need help with a new series of Sexiest pre-1960 actress ever (PHOTOS).

[Richard Evans]

Agree, she looks phenomenally gorgeous in Postman, but second pic, I'm taking 
imaginary luxury of kicking her over to Stompanato and upgrading.
Seemed to lose it far quicker than some, Liz Taylor for instance (weight 
permitting) or Marilyn even.

 The first image below is of Lana, age 25, during a break of The Postman

 don't ask questions , we can't answer , the posters are packed up already , 
 you get 6 titles , for the rest you'll find out when you get them , don't 
 think about asking to return them for whatever reason , no returns accepted

 that here at emovieposter.com we respect our customers , transparency etc etc

 Maybe, Filip, this lot is not right for you.
  
 But, I am sure that there is someone out there willing to pay for the 
 excitement of finding out what the other 39 titles are.
  
 Personally, I would expect them to be folded french one-panels from '68 - 
 '93.  Nothing more or less.
  
 It would be a very interesting question to determine if a collection of 45 
 misc French one-panels from '68 - '93 sells for MORE, LESS or the SAME

 However, I suspect the answer might be different if the bidders knew if the 6

Re: [MOPO] Ebay Buyer from hell

[Richard Evans]

Got another banking scandal over here now.
The bankers we bailed out and who refuse to meet government imposed targets to 
loan to small businesses.
The latest scandal after politicians cheating expenses and the phone hacking 
scandal.
Worst of which was not the unsurprising behaviour of journalists but that 
police and politicians were complicit with the media.
Latest banking scandal will be subject to a parliamentary enquiry. 
The politicians investigating themselves and the bankers who fund their parties.
Police predict more rioting this year, and though it's not good weather for it 
now, it'll perhaps be less inclement when the corporate Olympics gig has 
started and eyes of the world are on London.
And while you wouldn't condone it, fair play to rioters, they at least are 
punished for their thieving.
As it all gets ratcheted up further, the politicians continue to underestimate 
the public mood, which keeps getting uglier and uglier.
We'll see where it all goes.

 their language was like nothing I ever heard.  The F-word was every third

 That's another thing I like about cats:  The strongest language I heard from

 Of course I have no clue on that crazy woman, but generally, I think you are 
 seeing the results of big business run wild in our country. They are losing 
 employees left and right and giving the ones that are left more and more to 
 do for the same or less pay, and meanwhile they are blaming it on the 
 recession but they are often making record profits.
 
 And the politicians are ALL miserable, so busy stuffing their own pockets 
 with graft that they are not seeing the misery their actions (and inactions) 
 are causing.
 
 We are seeing the rapid destruction of the middle class AND millions who 
 THOUGHT they were OK for retirement are finding they get zero on their 
 investments (because the government is printing trillions and loaning it at 
 zero to the banks, to keep bailing them out), and now they will likely have 
 to work the rest of their life. And we are told that when we are destitute 
 the government will care for us, but for some that is little comfort.
 
 And there is no sign anything will get better anytime soon.
 
 I would say THE ABOVE greatly contributes to general fear, unpleasantness, 
 and outright anger that you (and I) witness more and more on a daily basis.

 For Christie's to be unaware of other copies of The Outlaw is just one 
 point of dispute.  Let's say you accept Christie's statement which implies 
 it DID NOT KNOW about other copies as truth.  Then how you reconcile the 
 portion of its statement - on its own stationary - that says the consignors 
 (Robert and Patricia League) - destroyed a second copy?  I've been in press 
 relations a long time.  Either you believe the entire statement, or none of 
 it, or dismiss everything as hype.  If you believe just part of it, it means 
 you think some of it is truth and the rest is a lie.  Either way, this 
 compromises Christie's reputation.  I agree with Adrian - I KNOW Christie's 
 was aware of additional copies.  That's why the story was printed in the 
 media.  The best way to understand this is for you, as a dealer, to put 
 yourself in Christie's shoes, based on what you know.  Would you add in your 
 official statement - a reference that an extra copy has been destroyed?  
 Putting out a press statement is very unusual in this case.  But as I wrote 
 before - and as Helmut correctly points out - all of this could have been 
 avoided if Christie's simply said this poster was the first ever brought to 
 auction - instead of this poster is the only copy in existence. - d.

 PLEASE LET ME STATE THAT I HAVE NO AGENDA TOWARD ANYONE.
 
 My point is that Christies should have been fair with the Outlaw Six Sheet 
 and that Christies have a few dark stories. We all know that.
 
 As for the Six Sheet and it's subsequent stories...many American auction 
 houses and dealers knew of the owners having several copies...this comes 
 down to pure research. And all concerned except Christies UK knew that there 
 were four copies...how could this be? Christies are supposed to research 
 these things.
 
 Any way Helmut and the rest you don't need this so let this be the end of

 with all due respect, but your persistance on this matter is quite obviously 
 a thinly disguised way to express your personal aversion against a certain 
 former Christies consultant. I can't speak for anybody else, but personally, 
 I don't need this.
 
 About the 'fraud': I was at the actual sale at Christie's South Kensington, 
 and I met the consignors at the time of the sale. They might have been lying 
 through their teeth, but at the time of the sale, they were VERY convincing 
 in their statement that additional copies had indeed been destroyed, and 
 that the one for sale was the only one in existence. What do you expect an 
 auction house to do, put them to a lie detector test?  Also, if I could 
 speak to them and get my own impression, so could anybody else. It's not 
 that either the consignor or the consultant had been hiding in the shadows.
 
 For all I know, any allegation that Christie's, their consultant, or anybody 
 else aside from the consignors, had any actual KNOWLEDGE of additional 
 copies is simply not true. They could have, and maybe

Re: [MOPO] OT: Bernard Herrmann, Vertigo and The Artist

[Richard Evans]

Thanks for the link.

All this talk, and hearing the love theme in that clip makes me want  
to see it.


Vertigo that is, and for the umpteenth time.

Wherein lies one of the reasons I think it was ill judged, it invites  
comparison with Alfred Hitchcock's Masterpiece.


And though the director has explained it as homage, I tend to think it  
should have been considered untouchable.


I didn't feel this about Scorsese reusing George Delerue's Theme de  
Camile from Le Mepris over the closing titles in Casino.

(Another beautiful piece of music.)

But that it has been used isn't that big a deal, it's merely short- 
term borrowing.

* Those of you who disagree - who feel the insertion of Bernard  
Herrmann's 5-minute Love Theme from Vertigo into 2011's The  
Artist - is a mild-to-moderate sacrilege - are NOT wrong.  Many  
people feel the same way.  I did not.  I looked at the film as an  
homage, akin to many films that have taken snippets of melodies or  
scenes from other films as a nod to their classic status and/or to  
parody them.  When I saw the breakfast table scene from Citizen  
Kane and then the Astaire-Rogers style tap-dance sequence - I knew  
The Artist was a light-weight mash-up of the most familiar tropes  
of old Hollywood movies.


* I still feel that the insertion of Herrmann's score is  
controversial ONLY to older film buffs like us - because we're so  
emotionally connected to all things Hitchcock and Herrmann.  But I  
also see everyone's point in this way:  what director Hazanavicius  
did - is akin to putting Max Steiner's opening theme to Gone With  
The Wind into The Artist with a straight face.  That melody is so  
well known that it would indeed rip me out of a picture.  But I  
don't think Vertigo is as familiar to contemporary audiences as  
Gone With The Wind.


* I remember when Avatar came out, I scoffed to a friend who has  
kids - that James Cameron had just ripped off the plot of Dances  
With Wolves and a few other films.  She slammed me to the ground,  
saying the movie's popularity underscores the irrelevance of snobby  
opinions from old fogies like me.  She said contemporary audiences  
who made Avatar a hit - did not see nor get the reference points  
to a 20-year-old picture like Dances With Wolves - and thus should  
be allowed to enjoy them as being fresh, despite their obvious  
lineage to films that came before.  The Artist is not a great film  
but it's good enough that I didn't find Herrmann's score offensive.


* Finally, three weeks ago, Bernard Herrmann's widow Norma gave a  
short interview to BBC Radio about the controversy surrounding her  
husband's music in The Artist.  If you go to the link below, do  
not read the accompanying story, just listen to the interview.   
Herrmann's window is royally pissed off.  She says as rights holder  
of that five-minute snippet from Vertigo - that she was never  
contacted by the makers of The Artist to get her permission to use  
it.  She feels trampled upon and gives the impression that her late  
husband's music was meant for specific films - and that they should  
never be used elsewhere.  Then a surprise occurs.  The BBC  
interviewer invites Norma Herrmann to a screening of The Artist.   
She reluctantly agrees to go.  Whether or not you agree with Norma  
Herrmann, her post-viewing reaction is revealing, though unlikely to  
change your mind.

I  finally saw The Artist last week. I knew about the Vertigo quote  
and thought that Herrmann's music suited the scene to which it had  
been applied, but I still find the use questionable. One of my  
friends who saw the film before I did, told me that the Vertigo  
quote pulled him completely out of the film. I can see his point -  
the score to Vertigo is iconic if every a films score can be  
referred to as such.


On the film itself, I did thoroughly enjoy it, but don't really see  
it as best of the year. I thought Hugo was a terrific film, and of  
the two silent era echoes currently at the multiplexes, much more  
worthy of the praise that has been heaped on The Artist, enjoyable  
as it is.

Of course! I think it would enhance any picture it was applied to  
and that’s why I really don’t care for it being inserted in to what  
amounts as a massive gimmick, which “The Artist” is. In many ways  
it’s like watching a vacuum cleaner shuttle along the glorious past

I’m not so sure that the majority of people who go to see “The

[MOPO] West Side Story/ Caroff

[Richard Evans]

Stan at Posteritati posted a while back that it's Joe Caroff and not  
Bass who was responsible for the West Side Story poster artwork.

(Info came directly from Caroff to their publisher.)

A former colleague of Caroff's has just posted on NSFGE in a relevant  
thread and thought it worth reposting here for anyone who missed the  
original post.


Also some further accreditation contained in it:

Joe Caroff — West Side Story Poster

I came across a conversation regarding The West Side Story movie  
poster controversy “Bass or Caroff” yuku.com.


I can tell you without a doubt that it was designed by Joseph Caroff.  
Joe and I were partners for 20 years. He had an ongoing relationship  
with UA and art director David Chasman (for whom he designed the  
original 007 logo for a press release. It was so successful it was  
picked up as the film logo.). I have seen this mix up on many sites.  
Joe  kept a very low profile but he is responsible for some of the  
great film posters of the 20th century. Cabaret, A Hard Days Night…  
During our time together we designed The Last Temptation of Christ  
poster and opening film title sequence for Martin Scorsese and The  
Handmaides Tale for Volker Schlondorff.


Please pass this along to anyone who is in doubt.

All the best,

Lon Kirschner

I'd bet it's after Peellaert, nice though it is.

His style was airbrush/photo-realistic, that's rendered with pretty  
loose brushwork.


Don't know who has the means to buy this kind of format to display.

Much as I like the large stuff, if I bought something of this size, it  
would be knowing it's likely to remain a piece of ephemera folded up  
in a drawer, with very little if no realistic chance of being

Re: [MOPO] ITALIAN TAXI DRIVER 24SH WITH AMERICAN ARTWORK: ONE OF A KIND

[Richard Evans]

Don't mind the artwork at all, or it being a slight variation on the  
usual.
And associate that style of loose brushwork particularly with Italian  
posters, Ercole Brini etc.


I had completely forgotten I have a humungous French billboard for  
Pickpocket, great art for that scale with CU of hand going in the  
pocket, which is of course remaining a piece of ephemera folded up in  
a drawer.

venue to attract a buyer is a good question.
Maybe someone will see it who will want it.  But more people will  
know about it now than did before,

so in that sense I don't think it can hurt the poster.

Does anyone remember whether there were any 24 sheets on this film?   
I somehow doubt it -- although there
could easily have been one of those special billboards that shows up  
in Los Angeles for films.

Don't know who has the means to buy this kind of format to display.

Much as I like the large stuff, if I bought something of this size,  
it would be knowing it's likely to remain a piece of ephemera  
folded up in a drawer, with very little if no realistic chance of  
being displayed, and what I'd be willing to pay would reflect that.

Re: [MOPO] OT: Movie crowds dip to 16-year low as apathy lingers

[Richard Evans]

Brilliant, the fourth film in a series based on a Disney ride, with  
more to come.


And Tintin, inferior screen version of something that was near perfect  
in the original form, largely due to the remarkable draughtsmanship.
That's lost and what they retain could essentially have been created  
from scratch, except yes, the already proven international brand.


The anglicized Girl with the Dragon Tattoo is coming up (and  
presumably the sequels), which was already made in Sweden in Swedish  
as far back as 2009.


Tested, known quantity and another franchise to reap.

Saw an interview with Fincher recently, and asked where he'd place it,  
whether a professional job or a personal piece he'd be proud of, he  
indicated the former.


Used to think they made crap purely because they felt it made better  
business sense, but remember reading Welles' theory that the suits  
just like to make the crap they'd like to watch themselves.


But there's risk with anything new and challenging, and they're averse  
to that, so inevitably they'll reap lower, albeit more predictable,  
rewards by being conservative.




On 29 Dec 2011, at 17:03, Phillip W. Ayling wrote:


Bruce,

The article is interesting and I agree with your comments as well. I  
also want to offer some additional thoughts. Hollywood (whatever  
that is) once focused only on domestic Box Office. In the early days  
of cinema - while movies were made in many places - US cinema got a  
boost, not only because of talent here (including many British Music  
Hall performers) but because there was a worldwide fascination with  
what Hollywood and the US looked like.


After the advent of talkies, you had the gritty speak of Humphrey  
Bogart and Jimmy Cagney, Cowboy-talk of the Old West, and American  
and British stage speech in films. Every mob in every town of  
every horror film, spoke mild Cockney instead of some type of  
Transylvania middle European accent, save for Maria Ouspenskaya.  
People with strong foreign accents were generally relegated to  
character roles as Hollywood was most focused on U.S and perhaps  
English speaking Box Office. Even though films were dubbed, that  
was generally a very secondary consideration in the casting or the  
nature of the film to be made. Arnold Terminator wasn't even  
allowed to speak English in his first film.


Movies done by US producers are now made, cast and greenlit with an  
eye to International Box Office. Casts are often put together not  
just on their ability to gel, but also on the basis of what  
worldwide markets that can deliver. It is possible that this year's  
total worldwide revenue will once again hit an all time high. While  
producers are concerned about the drop in Domestic Box Office, they  
are not going to put that at risk while they have found a formula  
that has driven International and total Box-Office growth for the  
last 25 years.


International press tours and local market TV appearances are  
important to ticket sales in a way that they never were before. More  
and more films are cast with an eye to the ability of some of the  
stars to dub their own voices and to have built in local  
recognition in certain marketplaces. Can you say The Expendables?


Pirates of the Caribbean 4 (with more sequels to come) was  
originally built around a ride at Disneyland.  It earned 80% of its  
1 billion dollars overseas. Johnny Depp is an international star who  
speaks some French. Penelope Cruz was added to the cast not just  
because she is a fine actress, but also because she is an  
international star who speaks Spanish and Italian, does her own  
dubbing and is a smashing asset on foreign press tours. Every  
producer knows that Mila Kunis speaks Russian; a place where  
Hollywood is trying to build audiences. Viggo Mortensen does dubbing  
and tours in a host of languages. I could go on and on.


Tintin probably won't do nearly as well in the US as it will do in  
Europe. Steven Spielberg and New Zealander Peter Jackson (who is one  
of the producers) could not have made that film as a Columbia - 
Paramount co-production 25 years ago. It would have been made by a  
European producer, probably in French, and been relegated to a small  
US release. Spielberg was directing his first animated film and he  
wanted it to have world-wide appeal. Though Frank Capra was born in  
Sicily, you would never know it from any film he ever made.


I'm not passing judgment and not trying to be xenophobic. The U.S.  
film business has just changed.The French, Spanish, Italian and  
other film businesses generally are making better films in my  
opinion because telling a story is more important than how wide an  
International release they will be able to get.


Hollywood is trying to make films where every marketplace will see  
someone that they can relate to onscreen and call their own. I'm not  
saying that means that Hollywood has to make crappy films, but that  
seems to be a

Re: [MOPO] Window Card restoration question

[Richard Evans]

Keep it I say.

Don't know for certain about values with these, but generally I  
thought everything was moving away from over-restoration.


And the particular charm of window cards is that they can come with a  
record of their history.


Makes no sense to destroy that, since that's a big part of the appeal  
for collecting.


Though in an ideal world it'll be nicely printed, and not bad marker  
scrawl.

Hi,

I recently framed a Wild Bunch window card.  As I was sliding the  
card into the frame I noticed (for the first time) that the top  
blank area was painted.  I only discovered this because I was  
framing the card in front of the window and the paint was not  
transparent in the sunlight.


I have a couple of unfolded window cards which I would like to have  
restored.  An original White Heat has some water damage in the  
lower empty border and the other (Rebel Without a Cause) needs to be  
cleaned.  Both have theatre showtimes in the card's top blank area.


From a collector's point of view...does the value / appeal of a  
window card diminish / increase when the top area of the card is  
sprayed over?


I don't mind lettering indicating what day and time the film was  
showing...from my point of view it kind of captures that moment in  
time when the film was released.  I'm generally more concerned with  
pinholes, missing paper, damage to the window card's image, or if a  
card is folded/unfolded.


Since I'm fairly new to poster collecting I'd like to get some input  
from seasoned collectors to decide if I should keep the lettering  
when I send the cards for restoration or have it sprayed over.


Thanks

Michael
