Re: Hondo's Daybill and One Sheet Q&A [Re-Titled]
Didn't attend any screenings, but that was certainly a popular genre of films back then. An easy way to make a regular income, if you knew what you were doing.

Storm Riders (1982) and Tubular Swells (1976) Australian daybill surfing documentary film posters printed for 16mm commercial screenings. These were only two of many surfing films shot and screened on 16mm during their popularity during the 1960's through to the 1980's This genre of films were screened, as seen above in some cinemas that could screen 16mm, but mainly they were shown in local town halls and surf clubs across Australia. The blank sections on the bottom of the posters of course aimed to have screening details to be included, as examples seen on the images appearing above.

Very nice Wild Bunch. Peckinpah at his absolute best. Although I prefer Cross of Iron.

Re: Hondo's This And That
The US theatrical one sheet could be any old film, at least wth the Australian poster you know what you're getting!
Re: Hondo's This And That
A U.S.A. theatrical one sheet that was also used for the videocassette release, and the Australian video only release artwork designed for Zombie High from 1987. Any preference in the artwork used to promote the film?

I framed up three of them that were in pretty good condition for my shop and show last week. I recently took over my Dad’s antique shop. There are two big shows and two smaller shows a year.
Here are three more frame ups (not from the purchase) from my hobby biz frame shop:
