I printed up a handful of 18″ x 24″ movie posters to throw on Ebay. Before anyone opens up their over-opinionated gob about it I want to share the reasoning behind it. I’ve been collecting original movie posters for years but let’s face it, I’m poor. I can’t afford to frame any of my Italian 4 sheets, British quads, American OS or the handful of lobby cards & locandina that I have. Instead, forever the punk, the more beautiful things that I can’t justify owning & not enjoying daily (Italian Tenebre 4 sheet, I’m looking at you) are tacked to the wall next to my Midnight, Born Dead Icons & Neurosis show flyers. I happened upon a stack of really cool high quality scans of alternate artwork/foreign/harder to find movie posters & a lil light bulb went off. 18 x 24 is a size that’s totally affordable to frame & it allows all us regular folk access to amazing artwork from a bygone era. The years I spent being a hardcore elitist who only bought original stuff did me no favors. I’m not interested in selling anything that I have but here I sit stuck with amazing pieces that I don’t really wanna tack but can’t afford to frame proper. See where I’m going here? It costs me just under $15 to get these bad boys printed on uber durable 33# bond universal heavyweight matte paper…this shit legit feels almost like vinyl. Quality is the name of the game, folks. After subtracting my ebay/paypal/shipping fees I’m making *maybe* $5 a poster. This ain’t a get rich scheme, you feel me? It’s about getting really cool artwork to those that appreciate & love it. Fuck those dicks reproducing 15 variations of Alien: Covenant; I just wanna make a few bucks doing what I love – being forever enamored by & sharing my love of film with like minded people. 

I can also take requests if I happen to have what you’re looking for. If you have a negative opinion about my latest venture shove ‘em up your ass. Ain’t no one hearing that.
