If you're happy with the card, you did the right thing. While condition
is always an important consideration when buying a poster, if a lesser
condiiton copy of a personally coveted title is the only one you can
find, I say go for it. Display the sucker, love it, let make you happy.
Sorry but this comparison of 1500's maps to 1930's or later lobby cards is bollocks. A few simple factors makes it so. The sheer surface space, the age, and the rarity, jump to mind. Say a rare lobby card from The Black Cat only comes up every other year, but every year a trimmed version appears. T
Aloha, There is some strange affliction to trimmed lobby cards within the poster community. I would say that the antique map collectors have a better grasp on collecting when it comes to trimmed items. I sell rare maps in Maui for a living yet i only collect movie posters and lobby cards. It i

Did I do the right thing?
Recently, I passed on a fairly rare lobby card that I needed because it
was trimmed. Not just any kind of trimming, but cut neatly all around
the title and stars' names. Never saw anything quite like it before.
I was going to get it anyway and have it restored but
anks you lovely people!

Hello Andrea and all...
John Kisch's MOVIE POSTER PRICE ALMANAC 2003 lists an Insert for BUTCH
CASSIDY & THE SUNDANCE KID (1969) selling on eBay in 7/02 for $59.00.
It is my recollection that the studios generally did away with Inserts,
Half Sheets and Lobby Cards in the mid-80s.
As for fig
Does anyone know if they made an insert for Butch
Cassidy and the Sundance Kid? Also, I lost out to someone with more money
on a OS a few weeks ago. It was the one with their portrait, the bicycle
AND it had them doing their cowboys and gun thing. So, I wanted that one sheet
or the insert.
