Re: Rare Australian Posters Of Australian Films
A rarity featured this time around.
I Found Joe Barton (1952) was originally shot as a pilot for a proposed television series aimed for showing in the U.S.A., years before television commenced here in Australia, The series was to be titled The Adventures Of Al Munch. The series however wasn't picked up for screenings in America.
.To recoup some costs the 30 minute pilot episode was titled I Found Joe Barton and was screened as a support film in Australian cinemas and in many newsreel theatres.
It would be interesting to know what Australian film posters were organised for promoting the film screenings here in Australia. Some newsreel theatre adverting follows below.

Here's a Gunns slide box, the art a bit obscured by the added postage labels.

Re: Monster A GoGo's Shock-O-Rama Poster Show
I quite like Warlock. Trivia note - the director Steve Miner came to Australia to supervise the music and visited my hometown with one of the orchestra members. They were going fishing together and the local guy contacted me so i got to go out with them and interview Steve for the local paper. He was very easy to chat with.

Re: Actresses Legs Quiz
Wow, you dug deep for 416. I bet she wished it stayed buried.
Recognized those legs and neck, but had to work to find the film. I expect others will get this, so I will wait.
