Hi again,
My very first posters were a Casablanca R49 lobby set and an Enforcer os that
my sister bought me around 1970 from Cinemabilia? when she moved to New York
to pursue a dance career. I gave one of the cards to my best friend in
college (with whom I was having a contest to see who could see
quot;Sumer of '42" was the first R-rated movie I was
able to see "on my own", so buying the poster seemed logical. Of course the
movie is rated PG today.

A lot of leading theme questions lately. Is it a virus or what? While some
theme questions can bear interesting fruit, I'm not quite sure why anyone's
first poster would be of much interest to anyone else... unless one is looking
to elicit stories about how people got into collecting movie posters
ears, but
it's remarkably similar in many ways!

My first poster was from a man in California by the name of John Cawley Jr.
He used to publish a magazine called "Private Screenings" in the early 1970's. I
believe he worked at Walt Disney Studio's in the animation department. He
had an ad in his publication for a James Bond 1965 re-release
For me it was the lovely Raquel Welch throwing elbows on the one sheet for
'Kansas City Bomber'. How could I not buy it?
All the best,
Michael

Probably a stack of Universal daybills when I was 11 (in 1961)
The guy at U-I ad sales in Sydney gave them to me and said, "and don't
come back", advice I never took.
The guys at Paramount were much nicer and the guy at BEF was terrific.
Wish I still had all that stuff now. *sigh*

My first poster was an insert from Bridge on the River Kwai. The cost was
$5. which I thought was a small fortune. I still have it. It was about
1970 at an antique shop in Philly. That did it for me. I've been adding
ever since!
