Victory Publicity

[Deleted User]

Alright...we've covered basically all the other major Aussie printers in other threads (OK maybe we do need one for RKO/Simmons ) but how about some discussion on Victory Publicity.  Like Richardson with Paramount was Victory exclusive to Warner Bros?  They certainly printed some great Aussie paper!

And just like that I found a Victory for a non-Warner Bros release:

The answer is Victory wasn't exclusive to Warner Bros. Haven't time to reply in detail but will do so at a later date but will be interested in what other people post in the meantime.

Yes - the Barefoot Contessa shows that they at least handled a UA release as well...

Somewhere in your poster pile Chris you may find an RKO poster.

Might need a hint!

Crime by Night and the Large Rope, ohhh so very eye catching amongst others.

When I first started looking at all the Aussie paper, with the triangle or circle rating I thought it seemed to "interfere" with the poster design/artwork/flow. I've done a 180! Now I can see that part of the design is where "they" decide to place it...Great stuff above! \m/

I think most Daybillers almost don't see them now

I would imagine so, it was the My Dream/Yours, but esp the Monte Carlo Story that caught my eye as to placement...

Cadet Girl (1941)

Cheers for Miss Bishop (1941)

 

Matt

Superb!

Eisenhower

Love the soldiers at btm of Cadet Girl, cool! Color of Martha Scott dress/hat great! More of the "under floorboards collection" I presume?...

David

Yep, more from the 'Under the Floorboards' collection 

Eisenhower

Good stuff! ...it's fun to see 'em! Really like the 30s-50s artwork.

Sven

Hey David , out of interest how many posters were stacked on top of each other under the floorboards? For insulation right?

David

Yes they were laid out for insulation, I don't know how many were stacked on top of each other - almost all were saved (a few went into the bin at my house they were well past gone). 

The owners (3 siblings) each kept a poster each (nothing special, just ones that the liked the look of), some have since been auctioned on Bidll, some were sent to NFSA as a donation, some you've seen others you have not, some have appeared here, others are in private collection(s) and there may be a few more perhaps to appear at the next major Bidll event.

Oh, what was sent to the NSFA?  Pics?

See the WE Smith thread

Oh Nice!  Did you keep any for yourself?  I would have been greedy and kept at least one of each...
