AMUSU Theatre Collection

Old news but did anyone get the chance to see this? I wonder if it's the same guy, that had them in his garage, who sold the Mark of the Vampire db "After 2 years of wading through 13,000 old movie posters, the AMUSU Theatre cinema committee has finalised a collection.." http://www.abc.net.au/local/stories/2011/11/18/3370507.htm

That's what I wonder whether or not it was quality as well, certainly quantity... One would think with 13000 dating from the 1920s. Would be interesting to have seen it! Was not on my radar then as not collecting at the time >-

Is there anymore information about this collection?

I have a mate that goes there to buy movie posters. Poster wise, nothing of magnitude there. More info on the place in the below links

Good stuff Reg

I'd say the carcass has been well picked over, long ago too.

Exactly.

Still have quantity but lacking quality. A few 1950's first release posters, some 1960's, including some earlier years re-released in the 60's but mainly '70's & ''80's. They never had posters going back to the 1920's.

Hondo.
