The "Daily News" with the camera reminds me of the TMNT newspapers I did.

These scans are nice! They could be printed right out. Thanks for posting them.

 

[joebecker]

You're welcome! One more from the movie....

 

[joebecker]

FYI - Not only are these scans of the actual papers used in the movie, but they come from Brando's personal collection.

This rocks!
What newspaper format are these, broadsheet?

 

[joebecker]

I have no clue, does that help? Ha ha ha.

Sorry, I'm a newbie in the paper prop world.

Hey if someone does do some nice run of these, a couple popped in the mail my way would be cool.

Glad everyone's happy with these.

I will make it for myself, but honestly I preffer not to ship newspaper covers anymore, because I got in a lot of trouble with other members because they were getting them with folded edges because of the shipping box.

Anyway, thank you for sharing this covers, this is AWSOME!!!

I could print 'em out on my wide format printer, see how they turn out and gauge interest.

Hey guys, not to be a wet blanket or anything...but were any of these newspapers, (as cool looking as they are), actually seen on screen at all? I looked through a pile of screencaps, and I didn't come across any of them. Any one know where they are shown in the movie?
Screencaps Gallery - The Godfather (1972).*** Francis Ford Coppola, Mario Puzo.

Here are the only ones I could find.

The first one was used in the scene where Michael Corleone (Al Pacino) learns his father has been shot and throws the paper in the street. I'd have to research the second one.

Nope. Here are the screencaps from that scene.

Don't get me wrong. They are very cool looking...I was just trying to find out if they are screen-accurate or not.

"The Godfather" Prop Newspaper. "Vito Corleone Feared Murdered" screams the headline on this faux Daily News tabloid, "dated" December 22, 1945, printed for use as a prop in the 1972 classic, and given as a gift to Brando, who wanted it as a memento. Several such prop newspapers were used onscreen in the film; this particular one was used in the scene where Michael Corleone (Al Pacino) learns his father has been shoot and throws the paper in the street. An extremely rare item, as screen-used Godfather props are virtually nonexistent these days. There are several unrelated photos on the back, and the inside is entirely blank. The paper is in Excellent condition with mild overall tanning. From the collection of Marlon Brando.




That's all well and good, but it still isn't seen on screen at all. (Just sayin'.)
