    Anyone care to comment on anything regarding the above three daybill posters?
    The history then regarding these three above Australian daybill posters.

    The above double bill poster was printed for a programme that never happened. Frankenstein Meets the Space Monster (1965) was banned by the Australian censor in the mid 1960s. No record of the film being presented for a later classification. You will note the artwork was toned down compared to the U.S.A. artwork. One has to think the Frankenstein Meets the Space Monster double daybill was printed in advance of the film being banned. 

    The above second daybill poster printed without a classification was printed by Robert Burton printers for a New Zealand release. The artwork used was similar to the original U.S. artwork, with the added bottom image sourced from a lobby card.

    The third featured daybill of Curse Of The Voodoo (1965) was printed for the Australian release in 1970. 
  • Interesting that they went to the trouble of printing the posters before knowing if they could show it or not.

  • I've got the double bill and Curse of the Voodoo but not the solo Frankenstein vs Space Monster, which is the best of the lot!
