These weren't "official" daybills so might not count in finding the last known daybills. They were printed to promote sales of T Shirts at the original screenings and are very cool posters. I had mine signed by John Jarratt and Greg McClean.Good question!(Quote) That's good to hear.(Quote) It doesn't work that way. If you send anything to the US it is subject to applicable tariffs that must be collected prior to sending. The good news is that posters don't attract tariffs (at the moment). However, each package has to be…(Quote) Tariffs on packages to the US have to be paid BEFORE sending. There is generally no tariff on posters but we are still required to pay a third party (Zonos) to process and verify the shipment so that it is cleared in the US without a …(Quote) For sure
(Quote) I have quite a few of this format for different titles, mostly with the blank space at the top. Never really decided on what to call them as there doesnt seem to be an official term.(Quote) Another thing that many people dont take into account is the fact that condition plays a huge part in the value of posters. One of the large collections I recently purchased included a lot of older Australian 3 sheets. All of th…(Quote) Yes. Every collection I have been offered over the years has a significant percentage of low value items. The largest collections, that required a truck to transport them, had multiples of many titles and a huge number of posters that were …I have included freebies in packages for a long time. However, it only makes a small dent in reducing surplus stock.I always thought that the blank space on some Filmways daybills was there for cinemas to add screening details, etc. It didnt happen often of course but one similar example that comes to mind is Teen Wolf ....in Hondo's Daybill and One Sheet Q&A [Re-Titled] Comment by John December 2025
(Quote) Yes, there is always a large amount of junk in big collections. I have always found it hard to be ruthless and trash the ones posters that are damaged and / or worthless but the mountain of posters just keeps growing.(Quote) I have seen those nice B Grade posters you have pictured turn up in various places but I don't have multiples of them. I guess someone must have them. The multiples I have cover a wide range of titles from silent to present day and c…I agree with Wil and yes, the thread was about what members future plans are when the time comes to move their collections on.
Lawrence, I think we are most certainly preserving film history. When I have large quantities of posters for …(Quote) I only dispose of posters where I have multiples and I am guessing Wil is the same.(Quote) Yes, thats my photo taken in 2019Actually eBay has been silent on the tariffs but I registered separately with zonos and it works well.
Looks like I did leave lots of treasures for you in NZ!(Quote) Yes, I have always hated storing and dealing with rolled one sheets but I have somehow kept acquiring them in collections over the years to the point where I now have so many that most will end up not being sorted or sold.
…This one is also rare. Bruce has never auctioned it and I have only ever had one other copy.

(Quote) Hi Wil
I spent a couple of weeks recently disposing of literally thousands of low value posters. It freed up quite a lot of space in my warehouse but there is much more to do and it is a very time consuming process. I have a huge…This one is also rare - never appeared at emovieposter or on my site

Another rare one ....
Here is one I havent had before
(Quote) Quite a few daybills that I had never seen before.
I do have a plan for the future and I have been gradually disposing of low value items.(Quote) Adding to that, the seller is very slack with packaging and inaccurate descriptions of other posters.Press Books and Press Sheets occasionally reference heralds or couriers but I think "Flyer" is just a term that some collectors used when they were unsure of the correct definition.
