can someone tell me where I can find some old movie ads to put on the front of a movie theater I'm planning? My layout is set in the early-to-mid 60s.

Here's a great one for horror and sci-fi movies. In fact they encourage users to download them for free. You'll have to re-size them though.

The thing I like...
...about model railroading is that it goes beyond the RR-Ding (whoo-whoo).
It's the research to reach a particular point in time we are trying to recreate for many reasons.
Have you tried searching the web for movies of the era? Surely there are "fan"(movie) sites that have images of movie posters for a particular film as an attraction for the site. 'Matter of fact here's a pic I just plucked off the Net by searching for "Bonnie and Clyde" (1967).

Guys, I would like to download those movie posters<http://www.prunka.com/basement/1949/index.html> but don't have the right zip file to unzip them is their someplace to get a free download? Computers and I don't see eye to eye so the simpler the better, Thanks in advance.Pat
Just type in WinZip in your search engine and when you get to the site download the latest version...its free... its self installing...then you can download the poster files and unzip them to a folder. To use WinZip just folllow the instructions when you bring the program up. They are super simple.
Vic the only sites that come up for me all say it's going to $29 to download am I at the wrong sites?
Ultimatezip is free and does everything most folks need:

Winzip is fine, but it is not truely free for all. The license has strings attached.

Viewer..
Belg, if you go to the bottom of the list, under WW2 posters you will see a free file viewer (zip) that is embedded with the program for either Excel or MS word.

The link at the bottom of the page said it was corrupted and could not be opened. So I'm back to where I started any other ideas?????
