I think this Aussie 3 sheet might be another lone survivor. I have two bottom sections so at least two copies were printed back in '73.

Nullarbor Nymph - great title!
Terminator banner is 2.5m x 60cm and has great presence on the wall.
Watched They Died With Their Boots On the other week. Errol was a good actor.
On safe ground with this one>>This could be the most modern piece. Has been made as a collage with Arnie enlarged from an Int'l one sheet. The folds are visible like on other Aussie posters and the one running through his sunglasses has been touched up by hand. Small text is als…Some rare posters coming out of the woodwork. I haven't seen any of them before. Shanghai Gesture is an appealing daybill.Prince & Show came from Regal auction in '76. A real treasure for any MM fan.
I've seen another "pillars" style of Aust 1sht for Guns of Nav, but not that one.
Great pastel colours on Wake.
Awesome posters and a collector's dream to own what is possibly the only copy left on the planet!!
Knowing the calibre of members on VMPF there should be plenty more to come.We'll see who's game to front up with the goods!I don't mind starting it. Will just be an ongoing thread that people can add to (if they're confident enough)!How about a new thread for "Only known copies"? Everyone wants to be in that.At my local cinema they had a prize competition for Last Jedi. The entry box was covered in one sheets they had cut up and stuck on.$150 a piece on ebay!!Stored only in my mind!!The fellow also had a framed db for The Frightened City '62 that I've never seen before. Similar art to Brit Quad with handgun featured. Would fit nicely into Chris's home decor!
The Regal here in WA had an auction in 1976 with many great titles up for grabs. I just met a fellow yesterday who was there. He had a framed Bus Stop and beautiful one sheet for Bells of St Mary's with completely different art to the daybill.
Early classification slide. Probably adapted from British system.
Classic 1970s drive-in double bill. Never seen any posters.

You can find them on HA pretty easy ...
I reckon first MAPS runs 1968 - 1974. Makes Day Earth Stood Still RR post '74.It would be useful to know when the companies decided to change their branding. Below are the fonts I recognise starting from late 1960s (start of MAPS) to late '80s and end of production. Where two different printers are found this should help iden…Pretty common to leave off printer details. Mad Max & Empire Strikes Back spring to mind straight away.
The MAPS details would have been a separate template they added to the artwork on all posters.
We'll never know, but I'd bank on al…You'll find the same on Rocky Horror Picture Show Fox logos, also MAPS 1975. I'm sure Hondo will be on it like a hawk! The single colour posters are RR.This poster is sometimes described as an English International one sheet, but I'm not convinced. All the English one sheets I've found in Aust have been for English-made films. Is there some other evidence?in Did you know that English one-sheets and some other sizes were not created to be used in England? Comment by Mark March 2018
This has a very early TV tag >>

What is the oldest Australian press sheet anyone has seen?(Quote) Not usually dated. The art is nearly always for the ad blocks rather than the posters. There are re-release press sheets and they are generally single page with limited info. You can recognise the originals by font style etc.
Cool. I like the old press books, especially if Australian.I love all that stuff & it's usually quite affordable.
I have all Aust SW posters barring ROTS mini. Majority of the one sheets are rolled including Style A 1st release & ESB.
This is a neat prog I picked up recently.
<…I'm a SW guy so appreciate that 3 sheet. I just wish MAPS had printed one.
JW is also a great piece. There is heaps of collectable ephemera and accessories available out there. Old film mags, tie-ins, scripts etc are all part of the backstory.Thanks very much. Never thought I'd see one.Keith (Star rock & movie posters) had / has it. Think he was asking $5K but that was years ago.
Might have been mounted to board.
