Subject: [MOPO] Romanian Posters
Dear Mopo:
The last post kind of got me
thinking...
I love the Romanian poster for My Fair Lady
listed below. But, an almost $900 starting price seemed a bit
high. So, I was wondering if very many people in Romania could afford
such items? I looked up Romania's GDP and average wage (which is about
$1,500 a year). That means that the 40 posters listed below total 5
years worth of salary for the average Romanian! And, since wage
averages are skewed by the rich, that implies that MORE than half the
population would have to work MORE than 5 years to afford those posters
(and that assumes no income tax or living expenses, and every penny going
towards those posters).
I love North America, but wouldn't it be nice
if we could sell a My Fair Lady one sheet to some foreigner and get the
equivalent of more than $20,000 (the average US wage is around $35,000 per
year)? Or a Sanjuro one sheet for $11,500? Or, Umbrellas of
Cherbourg for $12,500? I guess that's the price we pay for having such
strong economies.
But, of course, most poster collectors are from
the West - and they set the prices, not the Romanians...
Would we be such profuse collectors if we had
to pay such prices (and I thought a 1.65:1 US/Can exchange rate a couple
years ago was horrible)?
Just thought that was kind of interesting,
putting everything in perspective...
Good night,
Bob
