They knew how to decorate a foyer back in the day, that's for sure.

(Quote) Wynne Davies' art. I wonder if it was taken from a window card.

More Aussie 3 sheets. I vaguely recognise the art but, frustratingly, can't name them. I think one is Liz Taylor film.

Could merge this with Print Advertising thread I started this week. -
Great digging, Chris!!

Don't worry, I'm in Perth and on the lookout for those posters, Wil!

There might be other good stuff but the person now selling probably won't recognise the better titles…I'm not sure who's selling his estate. Probably a relative.

Appears to read at bottom: Rough for daybill.
