Re: Questions for Bruce-EMP
Two question to ask of you Bruce.
Question one is what is the total number of individual people that have purchased posters from you up to now.
Question two is most likely to present a problem, but here goes. How many of the total number of people answered by you for question number one have ever purchased Australian printed posters from you? If this figure is unknown an educated quess would be fine.

Re: Australian Daybills comprehensive Video on YouTube
That would certainly make sense for film society screenings.HONDO said:The 16mm film cans sent to the film society that I was involved in always included a limited number of daybills.John said:Not sure about that. I would have thought that they would still be too big to fit inside a film reel can even when folded. Daybills were traditionally folded in bundles of 20 or 25 over the years possibly just because it was easier to send them to cinema owners.Charlie said:Folded daybills I believe could fit inside a film reel can. John?

Most certainly Charlie. Some new information about original Mad Max Australian posters coming soon.

Re: Australian Daybills comprehensive Video on YouTube
I really enjoy the quizzes (mostly when I get a correct answer), I try to respond to threads when I have something to add, but most of the time I enjoy getting interesting information from collectors more knowledgable than me (and with better collections!).
The rest of the time I can be very time poor, as I'm sure other people are. Work quite often gets in the way of my leisure time and it can be a bit of an effort to write long answers to threads which deserve better than a quick hurried response. In top cases I at least try to hit the LIKE button.
In the end, all things posted here are great, and I'm sure are being read quietly in the background by others who appreciate it.

Re: Australian Daybills comprehensive Video on YouTube
One thing that I will comment on is that all my quizzes which do represent a large percentage of my contributions here are not Australian related. These quizzes are aimed for participation and to be answered from people from all around the world.
A question I would be keen to hear answers for is why has some knowledgeable members of long time involvement and participation here on the forum now are only viewing threads, but don't take time to comment anymore? Love to hear from anyone.

Re: Rare Australian Posters Of Australian Films
I'd say the difference in types of lobby cards from the same organisation would have been a budget related decision. Each film would have a certain amount of money allocated to marketing and publicity, so film that would have been expected to do better than others would have had a full colour set of cards printed, rather than the B&W / single colour version of Journey Among Women above.
I worked on a few early Paul Cox films when I was in my early days of collecting and when Paul was getting the posters printed I asked whether they'd do lobby cards, but that would have been a larger expense so they only printed one sheets.
