Wow!! I just saw a movie poster from Robert Newton's 'Blackbeard the Pirate' on eBay with a 'Buy it Now' price of $1500. Quite a price, huh?

Wow! That is some price. I have a replicated movie poster of the 1975 release of Treasure Island. Bought it off Ebay a couple of years ago. Love it! :-)

Your friend,
Trisha :-)

$1500??! Yikes! I'd sure like to know the Robert Newton fan who could afford to pay *that* price for a poster!

I think I know what Treasure Island poster you're talking about Trisha--it's got a yellow background, right? I got mine on eBay for $5, and it's hanging in a frame inside my side door so that it's the first thing you see when you walk in my house! (All who enter are greeted with a friendly squint and an "Arr"!) :-)

Yep, that's the poster! I can't remember what I paid for it, but it wasn't all that much. Also, I have an original press kit for the Treasure Island movie and the original copy of the Treasure Island movie ad from Life magazine. Those are special to me. ;-)

Hi, just curious since you didn't post the URL or item number and, with my budget, I'm not allowed to even *look* at eBay anymore ... Did the poster sell?

It is still for sale as 'Buy it Now'. Anyone interested? There is also a 'This Happy Breed' poster with a buy it now price of $99.95. A little more affordable, but still pricey, huh?
