Change of plan today and was able to hit another 5 boxes, 3/4 tat, the remainder was a bit of a mixed bag, stand out moments was a stack of Bullitt's, 4 Godfather 'yellow/orange' 2nd prints, Italian Jobs x 2 (white border trimmed ) and a stack of Pink Floyds: The Wall.
Also a fair wack of Stock, of which I'll show you a few.

Indeed they were, I've already shown/discussed this with a UK based Carry On fan club, they not only love the 'ad hoc' addition of three more Carry On films, but many of them already considered them to be in the 'Carry On' family, along with Sid James 'What a Carve Up'.
Anyone know when the Clockwork Orange R18 one came out? Surely the R20 re-release came first?
If I remember correctly A Clockwork Orange was originally R20 - it was well discussed at school (R20? wow, a must see movie!), we all thought it was stupid we was going to have to wait years to see such a popular movie. IIRC I did see it as a late night double feature with (I think) Rocky Horror (which was R13?) in about 1976/77 with a mate at our local cinema who didn't really care about our ages.
Sometime in the '80s there was a re-release (If a hazy memory serves me well I'd guess around 1984/85) and by then it was R18, but we all had seen it so didn't care, in fact VHS was starting to boom and you could get all sort of movies that you hadn't previously been able to see....
Thanks David, I've only just returned from the garage after spending a solid 11 hours straight trawling through another stack of boxes (only 8 remain). I'll post some more images tomorrow if not Tuesday.
Very happy with a couple of finds today from the Deliverance 'Canoe' international advance, some strange Beverly Hills Cop 'Yellow' advances, a nice Stairway to Heaven daybill (only the black application is 1" out of alignment ) and a mass of colourful Daybills.
Right, a 'few' more daybills to add, mainly 50's - 60's with the odd one either side of that. Nothing to spectacular and runs from great artwork to shocking efforts!
As said earlier, it was a crying shame that the printing on 'Stairway to heaven' was off (surprised W.E Smith let it go), however it's likely the main reason it survived being used.

Nah, no need, just thought you might have caught one if it was there. Thanks again.

What is the Gigi? Just a half sheet...
Actually never seen that one before, its written in English yet printed in Germany.

Including the 'Cinerama' version of the BOTB 3 Sheet and the Deliverance International Advance.
EMP listes the 'grey' Dirty Harry as both an Aussie Window Card and a NZ 'Poster', I'm more inclined to go with the NZ one.

As always no particular order, Enjoy.
