Rhett and Scarlett go riding through Five Points in this week's poster (date unknown). Doesn't Scarlett looked thrilled to be spending time with her companion?

Poster of the Week

We're back with a new poster for your enjoyment. This stylized French poster features  Rhett and Scarlett embracing against a fiery background...one so fiery, in fact, that Scarlett appears to be quite the redhead.

Poster of the Week

This beautifully illustrated advertisement hails from 1940 and juxtaposes Rhett carrying Scarlett up the stairs against the duo's earlier escape out of Atlanta. In fact, one could say that here Rhett is merely attempting to save Scarlett from two of her greatest threats: Yankees and her fixation on Ashley Wilkes.

Poster of the Week

Any guesses as to what state this Gone with the Wind poster is from? That's right, Hoosiers, you've got your very own piece of GWTW memorabilia! The other 49 states are now officially jealous of you.

This week's poster features a different take on the iconic bonnet scene. All we can say is that we are happy they went for the other bonnet...

Poster of the Week

Alright, after some technical difficulties with Blogger, we're back in action with a now somewhat belated poster of the week. We think this highly unusual German poster looks like a guy's version of GWTW--war plus Scarlett in a red dress. What do you think?

Poster of the Week

"The greatest motion picture ever made!" proclaims this 11x17 poster (circa 1940s-50s), which depicts Rhett and Scarlett's escape from Atlanta and, as is de rigueur in so much GWTW poster art, a swooning Scarlett in Rhett's arms.

Poster of the Week

With Easter right around the corner, this week we have a very pastel and Spring-like poster from France, showing Rhett and Scarlett against the background of Tara, along with Scarlett with the Tarleton twins for good measure.

Poster of the Week

This Spanish poster (11x17) which features a lovely montage of scenes from Gone with the Wind, but, curiously, omits the actual movie title from the advertisement. Not that folks would be likely to be confused about the movie in question anyway, thanks to GWTW's iconic status.

Poster of the Week

What can we say? Between Rhett going shirtless, Scarlett ditching her custom red wrapper for a green one (Happy St. Patrick's Day everyone!) and the useful circle in the right corner informing us that this is not suitable viewing material for children, this Australian poster,  date unknown, kind of speaks for itself, doesn't it? And if ever the adult industry decides to attach itself to Gone with the Wind, they don't need to look far for a poster either...
