I think it's destined to remain an oddity, until hopefully another surfaces with printing info.

(Quote) My poor lighting didn't do it justice Rick. Although the sharpness of the title text compared to the Aussie is notably different. Althougg strange that the upper tagline matching the Aussie and paper feel lean back to Aussie or non no…

(Quote) Unfortunately the printing info has been removed with the trimmed borders. That said, the paper (when compared to US & UK One Sheets of the same year) is completely different and of the much thinner, almost transparent Aussie dayb…

(Quote) A funny one here from NZ. A trimmed One Sheet (25" x 37.25") that has the same feel as Aussie paper (and upper tagline text), yet a sharper title and completely different artwork from John's & HA's one sheets.

The poor 'European style' backing stopped me bidding on some of those longs. Either back/restore properly or leave as is for the next owner to do it. The Cossack foxing also appeared to spread onto the backing paper upper border. So it had me doubti…

Yes Lawrence, that's the style that I have a few of in my own collection. For some reason all of the stamps I have (and the ones I let go) were rather faint in application.
Although comical that they needed clarify that it was a Horror fi… -
So as from my earlier comment with the release dates, the 1979 classification was indeed for the 16mm 3D release.
With the GY (post 1976 rating) painted or sniped onto the daybill confirming that it couldn't be any earlier.

(Quote) From past browsing experience, the NZ classification register is often found to be incomplete, with many titles and dates missing. Human error, or lack of resources likely the cause.

(Quote) Likely that the later dates were 16mm classifications Lawrence.

Creature appeared to have 3 NZ screenings. The table below should list in reverse order, so I can only assume the 1964 is a typo should read 1954 and that the final 1979 release was in 3D (US 1972)? Although it's surprising that the 1st release dayb…

(Quote) I'll take a stab at only two.
Both are likely from the same find, as they have the same main imperfections. However, they are ever so slightly out of alignment with each other.
Heritage (pre resto):And something a bit more colourful (Trove/Everyone's '36)
Following on from Lawrence's United Artist credit post. Here's a few more local (AU/NZ) Everyone's advertisements curtesy of Trove (June-Sept 36).

Hi all, Just dipping my toes back in to show a couple of my favorite acquisitions from the year.
Obviously war themed, my highlights were finally knocking off the Cruel Sea wave style quad (been after it for years) and I have Ves to thank…(Quote) Slight understatement Ves, the partial linenbacking isn't the only factor, it almost looks like they've been backed by an amature who drew the line at resto, so makes you think what materials/adhesive he/she used. "DANGER WIL ROBINSON" spr…Yeah Lawrence, ignore the baiting (we're all pretty much over it) and carry on with what you do.You'll struggle to top that in 2019 Craig!(Quote) You've done pretty well yourself Sven.

(Quote) UK One Sheet Chris, I also shared the Aussie 3 Sheet a short while ago.Thanks Mark, I've got a lot of white wall space that needs brightening up, so these two should do the trick.(Quote) That's what John Mills was thinking
