If I had a dollor for evertime I said "here is a list on EMP". I might be able to buy this poster!

I don't have time to open packages... Yours is still leaning in the foyer. I opened about 6 the other day but didn't have time to snap the photos.

Re: Questions for Bruce-EMP
At my age, I am more thinking about selling items than buying them! It happens to EVERY collector eventually (unless they pass away first).

Re: Jedda
Thanks John for pointing this out. I just read the original daybill quote at the top of the sellers page and didn't scrole down to the measurements listed further down the page. And the seller is asking $ 475 Australian for this poster.The poster on the right is misrepresented on eBay - clearly not an original daybill but some sort of framed repro measuring approx 6" x 14"

Re: Gray Smith announcment
Teaming up with Bruce to completely corner the market - they’re just hashing out what to do about a buyer’s premium
Re: Hondo's This And That
Thanks for the additional information.
O.k., I now believe that I have solved the story behind this poster.
A ) Take one original Australian The Giant Claw daybill poster design.
B ) Remove the Giant Claw action image only from the daybill and substitute this original image with the new Giant Claw only image, leaving everything else exactly the same on the amended poster.
C ) Stretch all the original credits out to create a new size poster design.

Re: The Lost Weekend
A fuller censorship rating classification on the poster here than was displayed on the previosly seen image above that was sold by Bruce.
The ''Suitable Only For Adults'' censorship rating on Bruce's copy appears not to be a last minute alteration on having the rating being changed. If one one looks closely at the style 'A' daybill image on the above Austtralian pressbook the image of the daybill has a large amount of writing on the book that was altered on the daybill to show the film's title and a few other credits. There also appears under the book image on the bottom section of the poster an unknown hightlighted section. When the Richardson daybill was finalised this apparently unwanted section was covered over with the censorship rating, although not entirely successfully though.
As the Heritage poster wasn't restored it is interesting to compare the two censorship ratings. As these two rare daybill images are the only ones that I can seem to locate, it would be interesting to see another copy to compare.
