Nice stuff Rock! Lotsa good colors and classic 50's rebel teenage movies.

Been sick most of this week so finally getting back into the swing of things and seems I missed so much goodness.
Good to see the 3 sheet made it home!  Looking forward to seeing it up.

Those Thrill Hungry Teens!  Will they never learn!
Really like the lobby card for What Price Innocence...what era?

rockabilly777

Thanks guys and gal! IMDB says that one is 1933, Ves.

I loves me some early exploitation/sexploitation when I can find it, and here's a lobby that will do nicely:

I would say this What Price Innocence lobby is late 1930s or very early 1940s for a 1933 movie.

Why? It is not original, because it s a Columbia movie, and I say late 1930s or very early 1940s, because Betty Grable is now billed second, and originally she was billed fifth, as seen here:

Thanks Rock and Bruce...I suspected RR but I know very little about lobbies, hence my question.  Still awesome though!

rockabilly777

Thanks for the extra info, Bruce. I suspected RR as well, but I know little about accurately dating lobbies, so the original release date was the best answer I could provide. Would an original release lobby have been in color like the slide or the 1 sheet, or would black and white have been normal for low budget stuff like this?

Columbia DID do some duotone lobbies on low budget movies, so it could go either way. We will have to wait for one to surface to know for sure.

Here is a couple of rare items I picked up from Captain Movieposter last night.

First, another African Queen, for Rosa's benefit


Then a rare bit from the silent era with Mary Pickford



Finally, one more title card from an MGM classic musical.  I'm starting a thread for these because youall went off and named me the singing dancing fool

Matt

Wonderful lobbies Jay!

theartofmovieposters

Fark!  That Mary Pickford card is SPECTACULAR!  Damn you, singing dancing fool!

rockabilly777

Wow, those are great lobbies! I'm partial to the Pickford as well, but nice choices overall!

Here's yet another new one for me. It's a bit out of character for me, as I generally collect very little past the 50's, and also don't actively collect later grindhouse and adult film material. However, I do have a soft spot for posters advertising movies in 3D, and this one was so over the top with it's campy 3D-ishness, I finally pulled the trigger. It has a couple of condition issues, but it was a nice price, so it's all good. I sheepishly present to you:

Eisenhower

Nice African Queen, Jay! 

Rock, your love of 3-D has led you to a diverse set of paper! Great design! 

jayn_j

Wow, nice piece of exploitation, Rock.

Sexurround! My advice:

1935, prob one of just 2-3 surviving originals (from HA/EMP records):



It's a comedy/mystery!

Whatchu think 'bout it?

theartofmovieposters

One Frightened Night is stunning.  Tipping the price tag would be equally as frightening!

Some new aussie goodness for the Aussie Collection:









Some International goodness:






And finally looks like you perverts are rubbing off on me:

Hounds of love is unique... What is that film about?

Haven't seen it, but apparently:

Vicki Maloney is randomly abducted from a suburban street by a disturbed couple. As she observes the dynamic between her captors she quickly realises she must drive a wedge between them if she is to survive.

I know BOAR is doing the rounds at the moment...lots of who-ha...anyone seen it?  A Razorback try hard or any good?

Matt

Hounds of Love. That artwork actually makes me want to see the film.

HONDO

A nice poster of ''Gurrumul'' produced for a great documentary film.

Rick

wow Ves, where do you access all this new aussie stuff?

A girl could ask you the same about your hoards of posters

You know Rick, I was waiting for Ves's response because I was wondering about all the garage sales in Warrnambool that have Cinema related material???
