  • I've tried to post it too with no success. 
  • That's a rare one, congrats Matty. I saw that one on ebay, looked like a risky buy given the description from the seller. But looks like it payed off. Well done! :)
  • Thanks Reg, it's still not in the best condition and Peter didn't know whether it was glued to the cardboard or not. Given that I saw some rippling in the poster I took a chance that it wasn't. Turns out that only the top border was glued and now it will be given a second chance and be restored. Not to its former glory but it will be a another good example to the naysayers of linen backing.
  • It's certainly a great candidate for linen backing and will come up great once restored no doubt. 
  • Well done Matt, good buy, nice title to own that one.
  • Great African Queen Matt! Artwork like nothing I've seen for the title! And a wonderful movie to boot! :plus_one: 
  • Congrats Matt! - As with the others saw that one on eBay too.

    I actually think that copy was first sold in January 2014 @ Woodland auctions in Victoria (I had to refrain from having a go at that time because of it being stuck on the board and the resultant shipping costs!)
  • Thanks gents. @ Chris The seller picked it up 7 or 8 years ago from an Antique shop in Geelong.

    Jollyfine Matt, it's a title I must buy something on.

    In the mean time, I have these..

    Crikey, how do we post pics now?
  • I was having the same problem on Friday 
  • Nice Matt. I also asked about that one but was too nervous at that price when it could have been stuck to the board.

  • Very nice Rick, Pagan is lovely...reminds me, I must frame mine up...
  • @Rick another nice haul, specially the PLS. ;)

    @Charlie Surely all the drawers in your poster files are full. You must have other hidey holes in the house? 
  • Yes, and PLS came from a great seller!
  • :blush: 

    It's a great daybill I have one linen somewhere
  • You got me while I slept Rick on the Pagan DB... Nice one! :angry: 
  • Can someone explain how we now post pics to the board..??? this is getting stupid.

  • OK let me look at the image instructions and see if they still fit...

    For photobucket all you need to do is click on the html box under share links, it copies...  Then on your post click the "</>" the one on the right and then paste (or "ctrl-v"),  click the "</>" again to see a preview...

    Above the text box (where you type you message there are a set icons on the left side (little bitty teeny weeny pictures). Click the little icon 4th from the right (looks like a page with the corner turned down). A little box will pop up in the yellowish part where is says "URL" paste the URL where the image is hosted eg on Photobucket.

    To copy a link from Photobucket:

    A. In Photobucket if you have a gallery of images open
    • click the gear icon in the top right corner of the image, a pop up box will appear
    • on the right side of that box under Photo Links click in the box that says 'Direct' - your image is now copied
    • paste as instructed above
    B. In Photobucket if you have a single image open
    • On the right side under Share Links click in the the box that says 'Direct' - your image is now copied  top right corner of the image
    • paste as instructed above
    WE PREFER IF YOU DO NOT (DO NOT) UPLOAD IMAGES FROM YOUR COMPUTER BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT RESIZED, ARE FAR TOO BIG (kb) AND TAKE TOO LONG TO LOAD ON A PAGE eg like Rick's images have above.

    Photobucket is a FREE image hosting service.
  • Try it David... It didn't work for me.

    Dunno Charlie - works fine for me. Provided you are clicking the 'Direct' link from Photobucket it is instant for me.
