Re: When Was The Last Robert Burton Poster Printed?
The following 
The Handmaid's Tale (1990) Australian daybill now appears to be the last located poster that was credited to them
The previously mentioned credited Bad Influence daybill was printed for the release in Australia that commenced on April 12, 1990 according to IMDb.
The Handmaid's Tale was released though on Augusr 2, 1990 according to IMDb, thus making this film the last currently known credited Robert Burton poster that I am aware of.

Re: We want it scary...but not TOO scary!
Dr. No (1962) Australian one sheet poster printed later in the 1960's.
Two of the same poster designs that were censorship altered when used in New Zealand'
I wish to highlight the inconsistency of censorship alterations that were to be made in N.Z. over the years. I have noticed that not all of the to be applied censorship instructed removals weren't always executed, and one example appears below.

Showgirl's Luck (1931) was the first complete feature film to go into production and be completed. It premiered in Australia in December 1931.
(The above card courtesy of The University of Texas at Austin / Norman O. Dawn collection / The Harry Ransom Centre.)
A compiled card of various original published items relating to Showgirl's Luck dated Oct,1929 appears above. What is interesting here is that there are two scenes from the film featured here seven months before the film commenced shooting in May 1930.
Norman O, Dawn was an American who also directed two earlier silent films in Australia, The films were For The Term Of His Natural Life (1927) and The Adorable Outcast (1928).
Isle Of Intrigue and Spur Of The Moment that were previously featured here were filmed after Showgirl's Luck, but they were released earlier in September 26. 1931.
