Thanks, David. I actually have bought a couple of frames from Sue Heim before. If you don't mind me asking, what frame size do you start with? Are the Jaws and Blueprint for Murder posters daybills as well? They look a bit wider than the others. It may be the angle of the photo as I'm not very familiar with daybills. Even though I've enjoyed having movie posters for a long time, I have to admit I'm a beginner when it comes to serious collecting.

All those are Daybills, just the wide angle lens effect.
In terms of size, my frames are all 34" tall, I then provide Sue the measurements of the poster and she then cuts the mat to suit and to fit inside the frame, from memory she usually cuts the mat oversize (I think a 1/4" overlap).
So basically I get a frame that is the same height, roughly 171/2"" wide with a mat. All archival and non glare plexi.
A remarkable collection Chris. Did you used to post stuff from your collection at Back Alley Noir as well? There can't be that many people with such an awesome collection of daybills, present company excluded of course. I was disappointed when it disappeared. There were a handful of collectors that posted really great stuff there.

Thank you!
And yes I did. I was shocked to learn Steve-O decided to shut it down (seemingly with no warning at all?). Not sure what to do about my noir fix now...
Is it your understanding that the Noir of the Week may still continue?
Yeah, I read on the Film Noir Foundation facebook page that the blog would remain. The BAN forum was a good place to find out about upcoming DVD and blu ray releases. It was also good to have Eddie Muller posting there as well. Thought your goodies looked familiar.

"You can have my poster when you pry it from my cold dead hands... biatch"
