Just got some stuff from Italy:
Original ITA 2-sheet (due foglio) from 'The House with the Laughing Windows'. I traded one of my posters for this with a guy who turned out to be the manager of Stivaletti, Bava Jr., and Deodato. Very pleasant fellow who on request also included some personalized autographs from his clients to me.
'Suspiria' in the somewhat rare foglio format (70x100cm) without credits. The photo doesn't really do the poster justice. The color of the blood is really almost glowing.
Original ITA 2-sheet from Pupillo's 'The Bloody Pit of Horror'. I have found that original material can be quite hard to come by as the film seems to have a lot of fans in Italy. There are also several alternative styles from later re-releases, but this is the rare first release poster from 1965.
I am a big fan of Japanese director Kenji Mizoguchi and have been looking for material from his films for some time. This is the original ITA 2-sheet from the 1959 Italian premiere of his 'The Life of O-Haru' (Saikaku ichidai onna). I have only seen this poster for sale once before, marked at a hefty $1200! Luckily I did not have to pay anywhere near that for my copy and it's in good shape, too.
