Ari, it doesn't exist because little is known about 99.9% of the
artists and most poster collectors are not necessarily "art students"
as an art dealer, I am definitely interested and have planned to do
something on a website for years, but just don't have time, but my
interests would be the artists in decades before the artists you mention.

While there are plenty of discussion groups for, and dealers in, movie
posters, I've been able to find almost nothing in the way of resources for
those interested in obtaining, collecting and discussing the original poster
art - that is, the handmade, one of a kind paintings by Struzan, Alvin,
Corben, Davis, Bass, Amsel, etc., which are typically combined with
typography and other elements to become the poster.
There's a terrific website at http://www.meansheets.com that actually pays
attention to who created the art for the posters; there's
http://www.artinsights.com, which deals in some original John Alvin work,
but I've found little else.
Is it hiding? Does it not exist? Or am I just the world's worst searcher?
Thanks for any pointers.
