Great stills, cast lists, and how adorable that you picked the last Planet of the Apes film to illustrate the listings! Big Apes movie fan I was and am! (I noticed there’s a 1960 Screen World on Google where you can look inside at some of the pages, here: http://books.google.com/books?hl=en&id=e8EQLQrmU6IC&dq=john+willis+screen+world&printsec=frontcover&source=web&ots=_ndoCaADdb&sig=2tWFQ4xvos_4SoddFPOgh0i32tY&sa=X&oi=book_result&resnum=2&ct=result#PPP1,M1)

And congrats on your new space, more room, and letting some of your packed-away books get out of their boxes and breathe! :-)

I’ve seen a few of the editions but it was the Maurice Speed FILM REVIEW books that I’ve been more inclined to pick up. Still love reading their articles on the status of film exhibition back in the late 1960s – early 1970s, even if the subject matter is strictly anchored in the UK.
