They're all lovely posters, great seeing them all in one place.
Re: Dating The Outlaw ( 1943 ) Australian Daybills

A 20th Centurty Fox Australian stock poster printed in the 1940's copying artwork as seen above from the U.S.A. aborted intended early 1940's release that wasn't released here in Australia.


An original daybill, one sheet and a glass slide produced for the first Australian release in 1947 by United Artists.


The Australian RKO Radio Australian 1952 re-release printed daybill, one sheet and press sheet.
(1940's)The above poster of unknown size or any other details has a 1950's Australian censorship rating printed on it, and is very interesting. It is the same design as appeared in a U.S.A. magazine publication in the 1940's with an image ot it also appearing just above..

Re: Hondo's This And That
Thanks for your comments Bruce. I will re-introduce next an earlier thread from July 2018 titled Rare Horizontal Style Daybills that talks about the horizonal daybill subject as well that you may find to be of interest.Bruce said:I don't know of any other posters that measured 15x40, so yes, that does seem to make it much more likely.
But why so incredibly few horizontal ones, and from very different times?
In the U.S. experiments like changing size usually occurred over a short time, and then were abandoned.

Re: Rare Horizontal Style Daybills
To hopefully help assist and add some more information to the discussion currently taking place on the Hondo's This And That Thread that covers Australian horizontal daybills, this thread may also prove to be of some interest.

The following example of a Regent (RFD) 1960's released Battle Of Blood Island produced daybill certainly appears to have been printed by a professional printer.

Re: Hondo's This And That
Could it be because most display cases outside cinemas were designed for vertical posters and the occasional horizontal poster would have to be displayed in a special way? I imagine the horizontal posters would have been less popular for that reason alone.Bruce said:I don't know of any other posters that measured 15x40, so yes, that does seem to make it much more likely.
