Re: Rare Australian Posters Of Australian Films
( October 30, 1935 ) 
( Both Everyones/Trove )There was also a planned version of Robbery Under Arms to have been directed by Ken G. Hall which never happened.
The following is taken from a Wikipedia article on Ken G. Hall.
Needing a sure-fire hit, Hall then persuaded Bert Bailey to reprise his role as Dad Rudd in Grandad Rudd (1935), based on a play co-written by Bailey. It was popular, although not as big a hit as On Our Selection.
Hall intended to follow this movie with a version of Robbery Under Arms but decided not to proceed because of uncertainty arising from a ban the NSW government had on films about bushrangers. Cinesound ceased production for several months in 1935 to enable Hall to travel to Hollywood and research production methods.

Re: Monster A GoGo's Shock-O-Rama Poster Show
Part 2:
THE BIRD WITH THE CRYSTAL PLUMMAGE: Finally! Although the poster is rather bland, I am glad to have ultimately scored one. This film put Dario Argento on the horror map. Although he'd written other things in the years previous, this Italian giallo film was his first directorial effort. The poster isn't perfect, but I am happy with it. But it does make pause and say how crazy the poster market has become. Jeepers. This poster (in this condition) has been going for more than I would have expected it to for the longest time. I finally just bit the bullet and got this one. But other posters I've been after for decades have just gotten crazy expensive. Things I could have gotten for under $100 10 or 15 years ago or so were up to over $1,000 just a few years ago...and are now going for multiple thousands. What the heck!?! When I was a kid, posters were cheap. I just wish I'd better taste back then. I still kick myself occasionally over the stuff I passed up for $5-$25 bucks for the shlock crap did get (which is still worth next to nothing). Oh well.
OLGA'S GIRLS: Snap on your chastity belt... Although this poster has issues, it is super rare. By acquiring this poster, I believe I have one sheets for all five of the notorious OLGA roughies. (The possible exception may be OLGA'S DANCE HALL GIRLS--which many see as the worst of the series, but it's my favorite. Ha! I don't see that poster listed among my posts, but I am almost sure I have a copy...)
THE MAD GHOUL: Whoo hoo! I am very thrilled to have scored this 1943 Universal horror one sheet. It's one of the lesser horror titles, obviously. I've never seen it--but zowie! LOOK at that cool poster. And what a cast! Turhan (THE SPIRITUALIST aka THE AMAZING MR. X) Bey, Evelyn (THE WOLF MAN, GHOST OF FRANKENSTEIN, SON OF DRACULA, etc.) Ankers, George (THE MUMMY'S HAND, THE MUMMY'S TOMB, HOUSE OF FRANKENSTEIN, etc.) Zucco, Robert (KING KONG, SON OF KONG) Armstrong, and Milburn (Doc on the GUNSMOKE TV series) Stone.
MONSTER ON THE CAMPUS: Oh my stars! I canNOT believe I got this beauty. It's always swell to pick up another Reynold Brown one sheet anyway. But... WOW!! I am absolutely dee-lighted! Yes, it's kind of a simple design, but I have been after one forever! A just on the verge of hitting it big Troy Donahue co-stars along with The Beast. EEEK! Fun late 50s schlock-o-rama and super poster-a-go-go!
Okay, that's 10. It's not the greatest post ever, but is a step up from some of the more recent ones. It also has some really good (I think, anyway) additions. (And, yes. There is some crap I could have done without, but...)
CHEERS!

BLACK DEMON: Ooooo, yet ANOTHER JAWS ripoff...and trying to take a bite out of the pre-release buzz of MEG 2. Of course it did NOT play anywhere near me. I don't think it got that wide of a release, actually. So--good, bad, or god-awful, I am thrilled to score the one sheet. Now to track down the flick...
Thanks for visiting. Keep an eye out. Hopefully I'll have another post somewhere down the line.

Correct. 9 To 5 from 1980. I had thought that the office girls image was a giveaway.jayn_j said:C243 is 9 to 5. Knew it right away, but it took some time to find the image
Correct, Yes I had thought the decor and particurlly the dancers would assist.dedeposter said:C242 is Anastasia (1956). The decor gives it away.

Correct, and happy you managed to come up with the answer. The location shooting took place in Death Valley national park, a favourite area of John Fords.dedeposter said:C240 - 3 Godfathers? (1948)
