Maybe popular as people wanting to see the film but not for the price of movie posters. Bruce just sold a linen backed one sheet for only $99 for IAMMMMW. The posters for 2001: a space odyssey seem to sell for a lot more - even the non Cinerama roadshow ones.

Not are these not just studio issue 35mm publicity transparencies that were issued for colour magazine use at the time, but extremely scarce behind the scenes shots with their own film-connected provenance for what is arguably the most popular Cinerama film of all time, and the ONE Cinerama film that has developed an enormous cult following over the years.

I am a big IAMMMMW fan and was definitely shocked at the ending prices each time. There is something to be said about that kind of item. They are totally unique. It's a captured moment in time and I was fascinated by the images. However, I just couldn't go those prices for 5 slides. > -Aaron Bates > > ---- Roland Lataille <[email protected]> wrote: >> This guy has been selling these movie slides for It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World for a few months now (five slides at a time) on Ebay.
