Memorabilia part 4, Brian Trenchard Smith and Grant Page

It's a fact that anyone who knows me, knows at least three Brian Trenchard Smith movies and knows who Grant Page is. These gentlemen made one hell of a impact on me back in 1982 or '83 when Danger Freaks aired on a German tv channel. Now, almost 30 years and having performed over 800 body burns myself later i'm still a huge fan and try to collect everything I can get my hands on.
So what follows is the BTS/Grant Page section of the collection. Starting with the French Man From Hong Kong poster:

The Australian MFHK poster signed by BTS at the Offscreen film festival in Brussels 2009.

The Man From Hong Kong themesong "Skyhigh" by Jigsaw:

The Deathcheaters one sheet signed by BTS, Grant Page and Richard Brennan:

Here's the one sheet for the excellent documentary by Mark Hartley called Not Quite Hollywood, also signed by BTS, Richard Brennan and Mark Hartley:

And let's move on to one of my favorite movies of all times! STUNT ROCK!
This is one I found more recently, it's the US one sheet with the alternative title "Sorcery", after the band featured in the movie:

The giant French Stunt Rock poster my brother bought me: (note the artwork that was ripped off from the Mark Lester stunt classic "Stunts")

Probably the best known poster, the standard us one sheet. Signed by BTS and Grant Page:

The Australian one sheet signed by BTS:

The UK Quad poster some big baby over in the UK gave me:

And another poster that came with the Promo record:

Couple of Mexican Lobby Cards:



The six song promo album that comes with a poster:

The Re-Issue soundtrack album that includes the picture disc:

Some VHS and DVDs:

The shirt I rarely wear:

The backside:

The wizard shirt and this one can be found over at www.mondotees.com

And another one, found this one on ebay:

Okay, last but not least, Grant Page was kind enough to send me some signed items, such as his book "MAN ON FIRE" (I suggest you order and read!) and this awesome picture featuring Grant with a broken nose on the set of Mad Max:


If there's anyone out there who could and would like to contribute to this collection, especially in the STUNT ROCK department...lobby cards, articles, promo stuff, international posters, a scan of the TEMPO Magazine prop cover and who knows what else...let's talk.
