One of my best finds was a silent one sheet for EVANGELINE (1919), an
early film of Raoul Walsh, based on the Longfellow poem. This was in
an obscure auction up north somewhere about seven or eight years
ago. It wasn't that it was such an immediately appreciable bargain,
but it was fantastically beautiful, and will sell for a good profit
someday. And really deserves the moniker RARE, the most overworked
word in movieposterdom.

PS: i got a great buy on the Spanish one-sheet for WRITTEN ON THE
WIND. it seems that Spanish posters don't command the big bucks
even when they're perfect, but this poster is as nice as the US
version...and I do love the movie. Oh, and the poster, though
vintage, was almost perfect.

Best poster find?
Easy. WRITTEN ON THE WIND, Universal-International, one sheet
for $10.
When? Would you believe last month?

Okay, not in the best shape, I know, but come on! 10 bucks?
Dario does his magic and turns this ugly duckling into a
beautiful swan.

Spellbound one sheet for $6.00. Now, of course, it was 1974, but
I also bought Funny Lady with Barbra Streisand at the same time
for $6.00 (still worth $6.00). The killer is, the guy had three
copies of Spellbound in the folder, but I was a poor college
student and only bought one copy.

Subject: [MOPO] Could we please move on to posters!
I enjoy many intelligent postings from this Forum, and have
learned an
awful lot about the movie poster collecting hobby as a result.
The last few days of diatribes going back and forth is not
enhancing the
list.
Could someone start a good new thread.....here's one...what is the
best
poster find you ever made?
