Hi everyone, We were referred to this website from Sue @ Hollywood Poster Frames. We bought a 3 sheet to the 1957 sci-fi movie: Invasion of the Saucer-men. The only problem is the missing top portion. We hear that this can be fabricated BUT we rather wait it out and await for a lower grade

I agree with Kirby on this one. I have seen some poster listed as re-issues on the poster itself. Also, there are quite a few re-release posters from Republic Pictures during the 1940's that clearly state "Re-print" on them. Ron Moore Cinema Icons > The following addresses had fatal errors:

I disagree with JR here.  I've used the term re-issue for years and I find his assertion "a distinction without a difference."  Re-release is correct also, but I see nothing wrong with reissue.  MovieArt lists films thusly:  GONE WITH THE WIND (1939) reissueof 1980, for example.  Yes films are rega

In Texas we've been going to the "show" forever. We never go to the cinema or, for God's sake, "the pictures." We do go to the movies. The more educated among us take in a film. Aging out of it hipsters will go to a "flick." I hate that. Let's go to a show -- we know that means a movie, not
