Further, a few artworks are ‘nd’ which means ‘not-dated’ and further information on dating can be requested from our Specialists if required. Thumbnail Images of Lot Items Not Illustrated in the main section of the Catalogue are shown between pp.168-170. A re-release poster is issued when the original print run is exhausted and possibly when a film shifts to smaller theatres in a city or to smaller towns in India. Re-release posters are also issued to market a popular film which is re-launched in theatres after a span of some years. A poster may also be re-released when a film travels from the north to the south of India, and so a different version of the design is issued.
