Don't know if I spelled that second word correctly, and it's not an actual film, but I thought I'd advertise this really neat banner for you guys perusal.
It's a very large banner that was strung up at the ceilings of the local food marts, by Kelloggs to advertise they're Indy/Crystal Skulls promotions. It's approx. 3 and half feet from top to bottom and a good 6 or more feet from left to right.
It's not carboard but a very sturdy plastic with brass rings in all four corners. It's in full colors, with the only reference to Kelloggs being "Dig into the adventure with Kelloggs" and a nice shot of Indy from the waist up, with his lariat lassoing the official title of this latest film.
I had two, both of which weren't even used, so thier vintage, and I only need to keep one, so it's destined to be a rare bit of Indy stuff.
Check out my auctions (toac2001) on ebay, if you wish!

Little does the forum know that Keith is my brother severed from my body shortly at birth.
Yes, that's right, we were siamese twins, except for the fact that we were born british. Keith was sold to a traveling fish monger, (He thought Keith was a fish) and I was sold to a meat processing plant, but a local lass took pity and later became the wife of a desperately lonely boy in the air force, (had to be after taking one look at the mug on that ex-siamese twins.
This is why Keith and I are nearly inseperable.
It's the total truth, I swear!

Wow brother!
Mixing "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" and "Little Caeser",
I am impressed.
(didn't get the parrots joke, maybe better that I didn't eh?)
I'm better off with a dead parrot, an ex parrot, only staying in place because He was nailed there!
Perhaps we should wake em up?
HELLO POLLY!! HELLO POLLY PARROT!!
(THUMP THUMP THUMP)
Yep, that's what I call a dead parrot!
Gary,
That's what I liked about these two large Banners! They aren't the cheap stand up cardboard Indy promo's that came out when the film came out, this is sturdy thick plastic masquerading as fabric, with those four brass rings on it. It is stitched all the way around, all four corners.
The funny thing is that these were only used for a few weeks, but this particular banner was made to last for years. A shame that they were only used for that short time.

By the way, that's supposed to be "Loan-SHARK", screwed that one up!
If I ever get the chance to pack up me, the Mrs. and our son, I'll have to look you up, Keith, I bet we'd have a hell of a time sharing a few pints and subsequently getting booted out of the pubs!
Eh, we'd just go to your house and drunkedly loop up some horrifying slasher film and since were so sloshed, for some strange reason, it would all be so darned funny!
Then we'd go over and toilet paper Kevin F's house! (A time honored american tradition!)

Okay Keith, when you eventually make it over to this side of the pond, we will toilet paper Doug's house.
Just think of it, Doug looks out the window of his house at two guys nearly the geriatric ward, happilly toilet papering his house, and just to make it more fun, then we'll have the nerve to desire a film show at Doug's house.
Awww, those days!
Actually, I bet I would be fascinated to find out just what Doug has in his vaults. I've shared my optical sound list, (and I'll share my mag sound list one of these days), but i bet we would be fascinated as to just what we all have in our collections!
Oh, and four days left to the indiana jones banner auction.
