Anyway, moving on. Entry couldn't be simpler. I don't have a Twitter account, so you don't have to tweet anything. I don't have a Farcebook account, so you don't have to "Like" or link anything. All you have to do to be in with a chance of winning is to be a Follower (and remain one after this giveaway is over! ;) ) - either through Google Friend Connect or BlogLovin' - and leave a comment below. Do this, and you may be the lucky recipient of the following splendid items:
- Two A1-size reproduction film posters of the 1942 Humphrey Bogart classic Casablanca and Alfred Hitchcock's seminal 1959 movie starring Cary Grant and Eva Marie Saint - North By Northwest. The reverse of the posters also feature interesting facts and trivia about the productions. (Please note these came to me folded so do have crease lines. They should iron out, though, and the posters are otherwise tidy.);
- A selection of 6 facsimiles of The Daily Mirror newspaper from important dates in history, all contained in a handy plastic case. Newspapers are from: 16th April 1912 (Sinking of the Titanic), 8th May 1945 (VE Day), 23rd November 1963 (assassination of President Kennedy), 31st July 1966 (England's winning of the World Cup), 21st July 1969 (the Apollo 11 moon landing) and 12th September 2001 (the 9/11 attacks);
- A copy of Oscar Wilde: A Selection of Stories and Plays. A nice, thick little tome which includes The Picture of Dorian Gray, Lord Arthur Savile's Crime, The Canterville Ghost, The Sphinx Without a Secret, The Model Millionaire, The Importance of Being Earnest, Lady Windermere's Fan, A Woman of No Importance, An Ideal Husband, Salomé, The Duchess of Padua, Vera, or The Nihilists and A Florentine Tragedy;
- The pièce de résistance - a copy of the 1954 James Stewart-June Allyson film The Glenn Miller Story on DVD! Featuring all the classic Glenn Miller songs (played by the original Glenn Miller Band) including In The Mood, Chattanooga Choo-Choo, Pennsylvania 6-5000 and A String of Pearls. Plus, of course, the marvellous Jimmy Stewart and the lovely June Allyson! (Please note that this is a Region 2 and 4 DVD and will only play on a Region 2 or 4, multi-region or decoded DVD player).
All this could be yours! |
