In the past New Zealand film distributors have used various Countries film poster material to promote there product for release there. Australia, U.S.A. and the U.K. were the providers. The following example is interesting in that a U.S.A. one sheet had a snipe added from Australian paper.
U.S.A. one sheet adapted for the New Zealand release. Australian daybill printed for Australian release. The original U.S.A. release poster.
The Flim-Flam Man from 1967 is an interesting example of where 20th Century Fox, the Australian and New Zealand film distributor, decided to adapt the U.S. one sheet for the New Zealand release, instead of just using the Australian one sheet design with ''One Born Every Minute'' appearing on it. As simple as this sounds they opted to add a snipe with the new overseas title which was taken from Australian material, and add the words ''N.Z. title'' alongside it.

Printed in New Zealand daybill for the New Zealand release of Among The Headhunters ( 1955 ). I cannot find any record of this film being released in Australia. I don't know if I should like this design or Not ? I am sort of 50 / 50.
In 1948, the 52 year-old Armand Denis divorced Roosevelt, and married 34 year-old Michaela Holdsworth, and together they made four movies (very similar to those he had made with his first wife).
The daybill above is the first poster I have ever seen from Among The Headhunters. I have auctioned an English pressbook (see http://www.emovieposter.com/agallery/archiveitem/16254814.html).

This U.K. quad is great.
