    Some great stuff there! I stick to US posters for the most part. I used to have most of my collection displayed-but I've sold off pretty much all in the last few years, and kept the few I really like. Lobby cards and half sheets were the easiest to display, but in the end I wanted the one sheets up. They DO take a lot of room but I prefer them.

    I think I have about 9 onesheets on "permanent" display-The 1980 reissue for Magnificent 7 (like it more than the 1960 poster), War Wagon (signed by Burt Kennedy, Rio Lobo, McQ, The Alamo, The Last Command, Where Eagles Dare, Creepshow, and I Was a Teenage Frankenstein.Mainly cuz I enjoy the layout and artwork on all these.

    The more I see this movie, the more I enjoy it. My main complaints-which have nothing to do with Duke-1. the car chase ending kinda anti-climatic. It would have been better ending with a crash, or leading to a confrontation with the baddies. 2. The TA should have been used in the final chase along the beach, instead of it being trashed in an alley. I don't know how the heck he fit in it, but Duke looked great with the car.

    What was the idea of John Wayne hiding in the car boot in this film? The footage however never made the final print.



    Was that when his TA was wedged between the 2 trucks? Duke was jostled down from his seat while the car was crushed. The footage is in the film.
