Re: Rare Australian Posters Of Australian Films
The Dinkum Bloke (1923). For a 102 year old film it's surprising that so much advertising still exists today, particularly a rare Australian one sheet. Top marks indeed must go to the NFSA for having the images of the posters made available to be viewed on their website..

Re: War Movies Quiz
I have to admit that 439 is a little known film today, hence was difficult in being able to be answered, This being the case and unlikely to be answered I will now reveal that the film in question t=to be Freedom Radio (1941) aka The Voice In The Night in the U.S.A.

Re: When the time comes ... how will you sell your collection?
I have included freebies in packages for a long time. However, it only makes a small dent in reducing surplus stock.

I think i have a molehill compared to your mountain. Luckily, I have a big house because I never want to put them in storage.

Re: When the time comes ... how will you sell your collection?
I've spent the past 3-4 days trying to file one sheets and I'm not even through the B titles. It's tiring!
Apart from the odd eBay and private sale, I'm not a seller, just a collector but by buying big collections I have ended up with big numbers, including a lot of junk.
A lot of rolled and/or flat one-sheets are going to recycling.
I sent a carload to my in-laws' farm bonfire last year. I doubt i will ever sell 50 copies of Armageddon, A Bug's Life, Big Hit, Austin Powers, Negotiator, etc!
I maintain an excel file, including sales results that I find, so my kids will have some idea of what is worth what. I've also detailed contacts for selling the good stuff.
I'm now 64 and work will probably dry up in the next couple of years, so I will have more time to dedicate to reducing the bulk and removing the rubbish, but I can't see myself unloading one-only copies. i still enjoy going through them, just not the rolled one sheets!
I'd love to buy another big collection, but mainly for good, older, folded stuff.

Re: New member
Ed gave me to add to my collection his back patch from his uniform from The Hellfighters, and the room number placard from Duke’s room while filming She Wore. A Yellow Ribbon at Goldings Lodge.

Re: New member
He was also in Chisum, Hellfighters, and Rio Lobo. He would play chess with Duke. Ed told me Duke’s hand were so big that he would inadvertently move pieces when making his moves. Ed would call him out to Duke’s laughter that he was caught.
Ed was also considered for True Grit for Glen Campbell’s role, but had to refuse because of television commitments.
