It's nearing the end of the school year. High school senior Carrie White is a social outcast, largely due to being unwise to the ways of the world based on her upbringing. Her mother, Margaret White, is a religious fanatic, her extreme views primarily targeted against sex, which she believes is a sin. She even believes natural associated processes such as menstruation are a sin, about which she has refused to mention to Carrie.
White's beliefs were taken to that extreme largely because of her own failed marriage and her husband Ralph long ago having run off with another woman. The only adult authority figure who tries to help Carrie with her life is her phys ed teacher, Miss Collins, who is nonetheless warned not to get too close to go against how Mrs. White chooses to raise Carrie, Mrs. White whose beliefs are well known in the community. An impromptu event that happens among Carrie's phys ed classmates against her leads to her classmates being punished.. How Our Posters Are Graded.

Has possible staining, pinholes, minor paper lifts in corners, small tears (possibly taped on reverse) slight fold separations, minor paper loss, and possible blue tack stain spots, and edge wear but still good enough to frame.

The Australian daybill movie poster is the Australian equivalent to the American insert. The sizes vary, depending on the era, from 13" x 30" from the 40s to the mid 60s to 13" x 26" 13" x 27", 13" x 28"and even 11" x 27" from the 80s. Some of the more modern daybill, particularly after 2000 are produced in various sizes. The usual process for producing Australian daybill posters was the hand litho process, which produced posters with a rich texture and subtle toning. The artists would generally use US poster art or press book images for their inspiration and they would either trace or use their own imagination or a combination of both to come up with a design for the poster. This artistic licence led to some beautiful posters unique to Australia, which often featured superior artwork with rich deep colour. Virtually all vintage daybills are now hard to obtain and as such, are becoming increasingly popular due to their convenient size and that a very low number of each produced. They are a very good investment in entertainment history. It is important to note that daybills for the original release of a film often included a two-colour (duotone) or black and white version. In many cases these are mistakenly referred to as copies or later reissues but they were generally released at the same time as the full colour versions were issued and as such, are also originals. Some posters like those produced by RKO Pictures and Brown Prior Anderson Pty. Victoria bleed the printing process right to the edge of posters so there was no white border.Many of these posters appear to have been trimmed but are not. Certain printing firms seem to predominate during certain periods, such as W. Smith and Robert Burton of Sydney during the 1940s and 1950s. Several other printers like RKO Pictures, F.
(litho) Sydney, Royelltone Prints Pty. Melbourne, W & B Litho, Sydney and Simmons Ltd. Printed older posters but W. Smith and Robert Burton produced most.
S started producing movie posters and there is an overlap where both Robert Burton and M. S printed some of the same original posters and both are originals. Other printers like Brown Prior Anderson in Burwood, Victoria, Australia, also printed some of the B grade and R rated Australian posters, and some of the film distributors like Roadshow Australia produced and distributed their own posters.
