Nope. Just me. I got in touch with the guy with the MEAT/RACK ad and he is the nicest guy(on the planet!) he gave me his original MEAT/RACK ad(that you see on his chainedandperfumed website)that as he mentions was stuck in a Films and Filming magazine perhaps since the week the movie opened.(March 20, 1970)So SOMEONE in 1970 must have liked the ad and/or movie so much that they cut the ad out of the new york times newspaper then put it in the film magazine where it stayed for 30 years.I wonder WHO that SOMEONE was? Are they still with us? I am VERY grateful for the original MEAT/RACK ad(they can bury me with it)but it makes me crave finding the poster even more(if that’s possible).And to the SOMEONE who cut the ad out 30 years ago, I try to telepath postive engery to YOU whoever and wherever YOU may be now. Thank you guys for the response and the link.I really appreciate your help and thoughtfulness.

MEAT/RACK(the real story about midnight cowboys/A Film by Michael Thomas/A SHERPIX RELEASE)opened at the 55th playhouse theater on March 20, 1970.It arrived before Deep Throat,Boys in the Sand or any of the other hardcore exploitation films from the 1970’s.I know that the company Sherpix printed movie posters for their films because I have collected a few of them. I have been hunting for the MEAT/RACK movie poster for yearS now and can’t seem to located a copy.I’ve never even laid eyes on one that’s how mysterious MEAT/RACK movie poster is.Does anyone know if there was one even issued for the movie? Or have I been chasing a ghost?

Hi there. i’m new to Cinema Treasures.i’ve been reading about the 55th playhouse in new york city because one of my favorite movies opened there on March 21,1970 called MEAT/RACK.i wished i had been old enough then to see the film as well as viewing the movie poster that they must have had on display outside the theater.i collect movie posters and have been searching for MEAT?RACK(the real story about midnight cowboys)since i saw the movie on VHS in 1996.i researched the movie ads in the new york times so i have a few microfilm copies. has anyone out there ever seen the MEAT/RACK movie poster? oh and by the way, the conversation about the movie HIM has got me interested as well.
