Picked up a load of clippings from 1936 covering just about every film shown in Sydney that year.
Interesting censor advice for Aust campaign: Suitable only for adults, except for highly nervous!
Chris should appreciate.
When Dracula's Daughter was re-released on the second part a double bill with Bride Of Frankenstein in 1941 a newspaper advertisement had the following included.
''WARNING!
The censor warns that weak hearts may not stand the eeriness! the frightfulness! the terror! that abound in these two pictures!!!''.
More great crime lobbies, Chris! Love the small scene on lower left portion of Girl on the Bridge.
I like that Hugo one man orchestra Hass is written 5 times. That's got to be a record. Also that they used the girl from the Pickup poster (in floating head version)

Will upload Invisible Ray, Things to Come & Mark of Vampire next time have camera out.
Lot of fun looking through those old adverts. Motion pictures were a big social event in the day.
Similar to daybill image, Matt.
Paul might like this UK pressbook for Miranda. Huge size.

Well done Chris!

This is exactly why I did not have one yet. Waiting for a good price on an original U-I release
Thanks Mark. Much appreciated
Yah...for some reason sometimes you can upload and sometimes you can only use hosted pics.
I am sure there is a reason or logic to it, but farked if I can be bothered trying to work it out.
Some beautiful paper in that lot Chris.
And good to see you branching out to non Australian prettiness. Leave some out there for the rest of us!
Thanks for the response on loading images, picked these two Italian photobustas up yesterday.
