Re: Rare Australian Posters Of Australian Films

A rare The Reef (1977) first release Australian daybill of a double bili poster also featuring a re-release of The Back Of Beyond, (1954). Both documentaries were produced and directed by John Heyer. The following image included on IMDB is an edited version of the poster, but leaving off The Back And Beyond images and information and the screenig at ... wording, What wasn't done though was to remove the Two Australian world acclaimed Australia films! wording.
John has eight rare lobby cards printed for the film that he has kindly said that he will include their images here.

Re: How I Use AI for My Poster Collection
Do you think AI would do a better job at finding movie poster lots at local auctions than say a google search? I have missed great opportunities to buy some great posters from local auctions all because the google search results never showed them.

Re: The Science Fiction Quiz
It looked like the model work from Gerry Anderson productions so I thought it was going to be that era anyway. The no puppets clue was a dead giveaway.
Re: Rare Australian Posters Of Australian Films
No problem. I'm pretty sure that I have some more information about this film. I will see if I can find it and post it here.

Re: What do you think about the rising prices of movie posters ?
Hi ! I updated the website with the last prices and added links to today's auction, but didn't add more posters yet, I'm not active latelly buying, so, I don't need it. If someone want me to add some posters with the price charts, I can do it, but not sure I have time before today's auction, only a few hours left
In any case, I don't see too much interest and it's a lot of work, so, I'll use my website for other purposes in the future, not in a hurry, tho, so, until then, this web will continue working and I'll update sometimes, as I need it myself


Cheers !

Re: Is This Forum Still Alive — or Just Archived?
You raise some valid points. There is a treasure trove of important research and information about movie posters on this forum but the reality is that the vast majority of topics and discussion are started by Hondo. His research has been incredible, but he often laments that few if anyone responds to his topics. There are now lots of Facebook pages devoted to movie posters and many collectors have gravitated to those. Bottom line is that very few people contribute to the forum.

Re: Let's Wake the Sleeping Giant: Ideas for Making Vintage Movie Posters Famous
There doesn't seem to be the same set of enthusiasm for this that other collectibles get, such as trading cards and comics. About ten years ago there was an effort made to "slab" lobby cards like they do with baseball and comics. It went absolutely nowhere. These days a graded and stabbed card is likely worth slightly less than an unslabbed one from a reputable dealer.

Is the Movie Poster hobby expanding, contracting or Staying the same
I have been collecting for only 5-6 years so my knowledge of the hobby is limited. When I look at price comparisons for many older poster< 60's I don't see much price appreciation, and frequently I see price depreciation. I see this a lot with the old westerns. Those of course may be due to PC (guns, and native American portrayals). Do you long time collectors see an increase in number and activity of movie poster collectors?
