The Film Poster Gallery 23.11.2020

Although a 1950's Australian re-release poster, it's still nice to get such a charming portrait of 'the boys' up on the wall. Bonnie Scotland was originally released in 1935, a time when Laurel & Hardy were at the height of their fame. They officially became a team in 1927, when they appeared together in the silent short film 'Putting Pants on Philip'.... #laurelandhardy #bonniescotland #filmposter #movieposter #gallery #newzealand #sonsofthedesert

Our 1939 Charlie Chan In Reno Daybill is currently undergoing restoration at the skilled hands of Roger Jeffery of Studio C in California and this progress shot certainly highlights his abilities, with the tape stains, tears and paper loss now a distant memory. Our two 1940's Donald Duck daybills will be amongst many to head over to him for some TLC in the near future. #charliechan #donaldduck #waltdisney #linenbacking #filmposter #movieposter #cartoon #gallery #NewZealand

Posters on display in our home gallery are often titles that played a part in my own childhood. So I thought it was about time to display one that resonates with my wife. This 1978 Grease US One Sheet is referred to as a 'teaser', which was produced prior to the general release/dated posters that featured photographic portraits of John/Olivia and personally I much prefer it. Watching Grease recently, it was amusing to think old these high school students actually were, as S...tockard Channing (Rizzo) was 33, John Travolta (Danny) was 23, Jeff Conaway (Kenickie) was 26 and Olivia Newton-John (Sandy) turned 29 during filming. #grease #olivianewtonjohn #johntravolta #greaselightning #movieposter #filmposter #gallery

Another wall of our visitor toilet now suitably jazzed up with a varied collection of Lobby Cards. Lobby cards are a great alternative to movie posters as their size (1114 inches) is the same as a standard ‘off the shelf’ photo frame, therefore you can easily display them at a very low cost. Being out of direct sunlight, ours are in fact displayed in cheap $8 'Warehouse' frames. As well as featuring key scenes from the film, often they also include elements of the poster ar...twork or iconic title designs (see Top Gun or Back To The Future etc.) We have an ever growing selection of spare lobby cards (singles and full sets) on our website here - https://www.filmpostergallery.co.nz//f/lobby-card-11-x-14/ #lobbycard #movies #films #zulu #filmposter #movieposter #nzfilm #gallery #starwars #topgun #raidersofthelostark #CleopatraJones
