A Danger: Diabolik poster I digitally cleaned up, enlarged from a smaller image and had framed:

This rare Tron poster came free in the Los Angeles Times the weekend the movie came out back in 1982. I remember taking it to Tower Records in Westwood, CA. to get it signed by one of the guys who worked on special effects for the movie, Glenn Campbell (not the rock star). He wrote: "Howie, don't de-rezz" in the yellow area in the bottom left corner...  Ironically, that signature has all but de-rezzed in this JPEG. Why Tower Records had the animation compositing camera guy signing autographs and not one of the stars of the film there is a mystery that remains with me to this day...

A rare (and very narrow) vintage poster for the great John Boorman film "Point Blank", starring Lee Marvin as a film noir unstoppable killer out for revenge to the backdrop of a beatnik psychedelic mid-60's Los Angeles. The movie is based on the Richard Stark book "The Hunter", and Archie Bunker (Carol O'Connor) and Dean Wormer (John Vernon) are in it, as is a very sexy Angie Dickinson. Angie did 2 other movies with Lee Marvin (Death Hunt and The Killers), and he gets it on with her in all 3 of them! This movie was re-made as the Mel Gibson movie "Ransom", and has been recently adapted into a comic book by Darwyn Cooke. The character Lee Marvin portrays inspired me to make a customized action figure, which I blogged about a while back. The poster measures 13 and a half inches by 34 inches and I've never run across another one in this size:

The legendary Revenge of The Jedi poster. Got this at a poster store in Hollywood now long gone. Probably 1500 of these still exist, although bootleg versions are out there. This one's the real deal:

The infamous Spider-Man poster with the Twin Towers in his eye. This is one of the few original double sided posters that made it out there before Sony recalled them in light of the events of 9/11/01.

Beyond The Valley Of The Dolls is my favorite movie of all time. An over-the-top psychedelic rock soap opera from the minds of Russ Meyer and Roger Ebert that inspired me to create a tarot deck based on the main characters in the movie.

This is the original movie poster that I had professionally restored and framed back in the early 0's:
