Spaghetti Western Posters

Look at the BANDIDOS poster

I think you can read my name in Danish on the right:

SKARPSKYTTEN

Those Danish posters have a very distinct style, interesting. True craftmanship, but I canā€™t say that I like them much though. Thereā€™s something about the drawing style that doesnā€™t appeal to meā€¦ I donā€™t know, hard to explain. When it comes to poster nationalities I think I like the Belgian ones best.

Yesā€¦ scherpschutter = sharpshotter = skarpskytte ā€¦ correct.

The Danish poster varies from artist to artistā€¦ Some are even just photomontages ā€¦
I think most of the Danish posters are fine but the main reason I collect them are of course because of my own nationality. I think its more fun collecting Danish stuff than say Belgian stuff for which I have no immediate connection ā€¦ Iā€™ve seen a lot of Belgian posters for sale around and they do look nice too thoughā€¦

What I would like though was MORE POSTERS POSTED ā€¦ Right now its almost just Danish posters which is of course nice as long as I have new stuff to post :slight_smile:

Alright. I donā€™t own it, but this is one i like very much:

Ok - I did say Iā€™d post some ā€¦ But, some of my favorites are framed up. (And I still havnā€™t got a host site for photies, but I think they may come up a reasonable size if you click ā€˜em) ā€¦
This is my pride and joy and we all know it well.
Itā€™s not framed up thoā€™ ā€˜cos - now we come to the dangers of cider!!! - I bought it thinking it to be in cms. - but itā€™s in inches. Still, who cares? I left my choir-mistressā€™ hands ā€˜nā€™ feet on to give it scale ā€¦

Fabulous style brother,

Yeah ā€¦ I let her have a coffee-break every now and then thoā€™. ;D

Damn nice posters Reverendā€¦ Love the Demofilo Fidani one with Gordon Mitchellā€™s face plastered all over itā€¦ Enviableā€¦

Been thinking of expanding my collection to German material also and those two surely are nice posters ā€¦ Love those German titles. Unbeatable.

See it wasnā€™t that hard was it :slight_smile:

Donā€™t spoil her thoughā€¦ Would be a foolish mistake :slight_smile:

Oh, mine or not as fine as yours !!!

Most German posters are of the same style. I kind of like it !

Here some more out of my small collection:

Reverend Danite, can I ask where you purchased your Django poster?

Yeah, these German titles are often great fun, having almost nothing to do with the original !

Some more and one Deem this time:

I am in the process of trying to photograph my collection of posters, fotobustas, locandinas, and so forth. When I brought a lot of things out of storage, I was amazed at just how much of this stuff I have!!

I really need to get a lot of these things mounted and framed (especially the two posters I have for JOHNNY HAMLET that were signed by both Enzo Castellari and Francesco De Masi).

So far, though, I have only photographed the followingā€¦

By the way, I have the exact same poster for DJANGO that Rev. Danite has! Great poster! I purchased mine over five years ago from Intercard.srl in Italy. It is an original.

I will try to post more of these as I photograph them in the future.
