Rare Memorabilia: Kelly’s ‘Helte’ Danish Movie Program
Rare Memorabilia: Kelly’s ‘Helte’ Danish Movie Program
Danish Movie Programs are quite small and compact in size. If you go back some 30 years, these could often be found in dealers’ boxes that sat on top of their tables at film fairs – and could be picked up fairly cheaply. Today is a different story, they have become a great deal harder to find and a great deal more expensive to buy.
These were typically about 15.5 x 12 cm in size and contained about a dozen pages on thin paper stock. I’ve chosen Kelly’s Heroes as an example – A) it is one I still don’t have, and B) it is one that you don’t generally see too much. Back in the day, you would probably pay £2-3 for one of these, however, these days you can expect to pay more like £20, and often more if it was any of the more collectable ‘dollar’ titles from Leone’s trilogy of films.

Rare Sudden Impact paperback poster
Rare Sudden Impact paperback poster
It was great to see this poster going to my No 2 here on the archive, Davy Triumph. It’s an incredibly rare poster that doesn’t really come along too often. Designed primarily to promote the Hodder and Stoughton tie-in paperback of the 1983 film, it was probably displayed in certain cinemas and selected book stores. The poster measures approximately 37cm by 49.5cm (14.5” x 19.5”) and features the regular ‘enforcer’ facial shot set against the San Francisco skyline. A nice item that doesn’t get seen too much.
