Re: [MOPO] How to authenticate a Rebecca R40 Belgian?

The indespensable Belgian book on Belgian film posters,SOUVENIRS D'HOLLYWOOD (1986) shows the first release REBECCA as Belgian, and without the United Artists logo. It measures at 28x38cm. Germany invaded Belgium in May, 1940 and from then American films were banned from Belgium, although any da

This also appears to be an unusual size and paper stock. Not sure how to authenticate though. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Atom-Man-Vs-Superman-Original-Movie-Poster-1950-Chapter-6-W-Serial-17x-11-/171066893970?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item27d461a692#ht_215wt_1034 - Original Message -

Re: [MOPO] How to authenticate a Rebecca R40 Belgian?

Richard these posters were stored and used for years by poster distributors. I have loads of Belgian posters we know are 1950s printings with 1960's play dates on them, so that by itself isn't much proof of release date similarly we have American posters used the same way for years. I looked

Re: [MOPO] How to authenticate a Rebecca R40 Belgian?

But Rich, the dates indicate screening either in May 44 or 50. May 44 is too early and referring to the calendar those dates don't work for those days again until 1950. And, they did continue using the "Selznick International" credit presumably past '46, it's there on the printings with the Ci

Re: [MOPO] How to authenticate a Rebecca R40 Belgian?

Richard I would say this is the 1945 poster, though as we all know recycling posters for many years was reality. One key to the date is the "Selznick International" credit, which ceased usage by 1946 I think Heritage got this poster just right and has stated exactly what the poster is - firs

What usually turns up has Cine Vog top left just above the image area and "Selsnick International PRESENTE". As I understand it, if Cine Vog distributed, then invariably it's RR. Can't recall having seen one that's known to be original release. Confused about this one, and where it fits into th

Todd, I posted the loss of posters from Grey on MOPO a while back, and for my efforts, received a slew of personal attacks from Grey's MOPO friends. My personal opinion is that you're lucky if you get these back. Grey Smith claims his inventory system is handled by bonded, insured staff. NOT TR

Hi Helmut, Do you also know of original 1940s Belgians not printed on something different than the regularly used paper stock that show a semi-glossy/shiny surface? Ron http://www.motionpictureart.com From: Helmut Hamm [mailto:texasmu...@web.de] S

Re: [MOPO] How to authenticate a Rebecca R40 Belgian?

I couldn't say anything about the REBECCA poster without have seen at least an image, but the 'light sheen' is not unusual with early post-war Belgian posters. I've handled original 1940s Belgians that were printed on the back of an old map and 100% original that showed a slightly 'shiny' surfac

Re: [MOPO] How to authenticate a Rebecca R40 Belgian?

Hi Michael, The info in the lower border area seems correct, because most reprints have no text or 'Printed in Belgium'. And indeed the less digits the phone number has the older the poster. How many digits does it have? However, it's the semi-glossy/slight sheen that's suspicious to me bec
