Re: The Horror Quiz
O.k. then as time is up I will now reveal the two answers for the yet unanswered images. 353 are Silent Scream from 1979 and 354 The Day It Came to Earth from 1977.

Re: Hondo's This And That
IYour reasoning is very sound, I think it's an Australian one sheet too.
Re: The Science Fiction Quiz
To finish it off, I guess 249 is Five from 1951. Just an image search though. Don't know the film

Re: Hondo's This And That
Apart from the majority of the poster images being that of And Now Tomorrow, the current attraction and Here Comes The Wave the next attraction, three other films had very limited films images included there that were advertised as being coming. These three films are those of Lost in A Harem, The Thin Man Goes Home and Dark Mountain.

A 1930 film Holiday with a 24 sheet poster for this film displayed on the outside Capitol theatre's billboard as seen at night.

Re: The Science Fiction Quiz
Correct, so an easy one for you. I must endeavour to seek it out as I have never viewed it. Sounds like that I have missed out on seeing an excellent film. There are very high ratings for it on both IMDb and Rotten tomatoes.dedeposter said:248 is Interstellar (2014). One of my favourite films of all time.

Re: Hondo's This And That
Nicely spotted. I am thinking the one displayed on the right is a U.S.A. poster. I base this on the difference in the two posters, due to the placement of credits on the posters. Mainly though my reason for thinking this is that the one on the right is exactly the same image as it appears on the below U.S. press sheet image. The one exception being the press sheet image has a part darkened background which was perhaps added to the actual poster after the press sheet was printed. To support my thinking the poster on the right hasn't any Australian censorship rating appearing on itWil said:Nice to see what I'm assuming to be a US 24 Sheet displayed next to an Australian one? Or possibly just a modified Australian one, seeing how the portraits are of similar quality.

It is really great that Bruce's archives are available with so many images that one can draw upon to help in assisting to make a point here on the forum.
