Boy, I remember that too, Doug! That was a long time ago, but those butt scars 
take a long time to heal.
(I've been married three times soI know.) Poster dorks are like platypuses, 
funny looking but able to inflict painful wounds when disturbed or threatened.
(Ask my three wives.)

PS-Since this IS a poster forum... I just ought a combo half sheet from "Attack 
of the Crab Monsters/Not of This Earth" that I love, with the red background, 
in great condition. Got me to thinking; anyone ever seen the six sheet combo 
for this double bill up close and for real? Man, I'd LOVE to own one of those 
someday, but it's kind of like"Haley's Poster"; it doesn't come around too 
often. I think I saw one for auction on Heritage, back when I had no money, but 
now?  I'll keep watching the skies for that one.

[MOPO] FS: More stills added - Streetcar candid, Thomas Crown dune buggy shot, Breathless kiss

2015-07-14 Thread Posteropolis
I just added a few more stills to Posteropolis for THE HAUNTED PALACE, THE
HAUNTED STRANGLER, INVADERS FROM MARS, ON THE WATERFRONT and A STREETCAR
NAMED DESIRE.

 

One of the Streetcar stills is a great candid shot of the cast and Elia
Kazan gathered round what looks like a birthday cake:

http://www.posteropolis.com/products/streetcar-named-desire-a-2-1951

 

Other stills worth a look are two beautiful THOMAS CROWN AFFAIR 8x10s,
including one showing Steve McQueen driving a dune buggy:

http://www.posteropolis.com/search?type=product

&q=thomas+crown+affair

 

I also have a BREATHLESS (A bout de souffle) still with a very romantic
portrait of stars Jean Seberg and Jean-Paul Belmondo. This image was also
used on the original release French 1-panel (an example of which is
currently in the upcoming Heritage Signature Auction):
