WE ARE POSTING THIS HERE BECAUSE WE HAVE TWO GREAT AUCTIONS (ONE OF ONE-SHEETS, AND ONE OF 30X40S & 40X60S) CLOSING VERY SOON! One is our regular Tuesday night auction (closing tonight May 8th, in less than 12 hours!), which contains 848 folded one-sheets (with TONS of great titles), and the other is our Thursday night auction (closing May 10th) which contains 200 30X40S & 40X60S (also with TONS of great titles)!
What is in our Tuesday night auctions that close TUESDAY, May 8th on eBay? This is a REALLY special auction, with lots of very desirable one-sheets, from the 1930s to present, all currently on eBay ending Tuesday, May 8th beginning around 7 PM CST! Read more about these great items below, or go see them right now (with large thumbnails and links to these great auctions on eBay for easy bidding) in our <http://www.emovieposter.com/gallery/currentauctions.php>Tuesday Auction Gallery! Like our Thursday auctions ending tonight, this group of one-sheets contains two special collections, one from the 1930s and 1940s, and the other from the 1960s to present. Some of the "better" titles include: "Older one-sheets" (1930s to 1950s): Night Ride 1930, The Drake Case 1929, Best Years of Our Lives, Johnny Guitar, The Set-Up, The Window, 12 Angry Men, Mr Blandings Builds His Dream House, Cuban Pete (Desi Arnaz!), On Again Off Again (Wheeler & Woolsey), and much, much more! "Newer one-sheets" (1960s to present): Foxy Brown (both styles!), Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid, Taxi Driver, Mean Streets, The Sting (ultra-rare style with completely different artwork!), Le Mans, Once Upon a Time in the West, Chinatown, The Magnificent Seven, Point Blank, Dirty Harry, Super Fly, High Plains Drifter, Wicker Man, Caddyshack, Terminator, and much, much more! We really could list 100 more titles (there ARE that many special posters in this auction!). Know that, in addition to the better known titles, there are LOTS of rarely seen older titles. In all, the auction has 114 posters from the 1930s and 1940s, and 27 of them are ones we have never sold before! WITH JUST 12 HOURS TO GO, THERE REALLY ARE A LOT OF GREAT POSTERS IN THIS AUCTION THAT ARE STILL AT ABSOLUTE BARGAIN PRICES, AND THERE IS EVERY POSSIBILITY THAT THERE WILL BE SEVERAL REAL "DEALS" (and maybe some outright "steals"). Just look at the super-rare alternate style one-sheet from The Sting (with completely different art)! We have previously auctioned it for around $2,026.99 and this one is only around 20% of that. INSANE! There are LOTS and LOTS of other "better" quality titles that are still WAY low. If they go for those prices I don't want to hear any of the "I would have bid if I had known it could go so low" bellyaching I hear sometimes. These posters really CAN go "so low" because they really DO have no reserves (unlike many other "pretend" no reserve auctions)! Be sure to check out these 848 folded one-sheets (ending TONIGHT) in our <http://www.emovieposter.com/gallery/currentauctions.php>Tuesday Auction Gallery! What is in our third Thursday night auctions that close Thursday May 10th on eBay? We have 200 Thirty by Forty and Forty by Sixty movie posters on eBay ending Thursday, May 10th beginning around 7 PM CST! Read more about these great items below, or go see them right now (with large thumbnails and links to these great auctions on eBay for easy bidding) in our NEW <http://www.emovieposter.com/gallery/thursdayauctions.php>Thursday Auction Image Gallery What is included in this weeks THURSDAY NIGHT'S items? We start with an ultra-rare To Catch a Thief 30x40, followed by both the Star Wars Style D 30x40 AND also the Star Wars Style A 30x40! Next we have assorted 30x40s, including lots of great titles, like The Shootist, Planet of the Apes, Blade Runner, The Warriors, Strange Brew, and much, much more! Next we have a pretty amazing collection of 15 Clint Eastwood 30x40s and 40x60s, including many of his very best titles, like For A Few Dollars More, The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly, High Plains Drifter, etc, etc! Finally, we have the rest of the 40x60s, including lots of great titles, like Pillow Talk, Love on a Pillow, Mr. Bug Goes To Town (R59), Chinatown, The Spy Who Loved Me, and much, much more! A SPECIAL NOTE ABOUT THE RARITY OF OUR CURRENT 200 Thirty by Forty and Forty by Sixty movie posters that end Thursday: Both thirty by forty and forty by sixty posters have been made since the 1930s, but few theaters ever ordered them, making them FAR more rare than one-sheets or three-sheets of the same titles. Why? Because they were printed on a much better paper stock than that of one-sheets and three-sheets, and the studios charged between five and ten times more for these posters, so only the biggest theaters ordered them. Many collectors do not realize these sizes exist, but there is a great argument for why thirty by forties should sell for more than corresponding one-sheets, which is that they are printed on better paper, don't have the annoying foldlines of regular folded one-sheets, and are a jillion times more rare! We have seen high grade thirty by forties continue to rise in price as more and more collectors become aware of them, and we expect this trend to continue. The same is true for forty by sixties. They are far more appealing than three-sheets, even more so because they are a much more "frame-able" size, one that is far more impressive than a one-sheet, but not so large (like a three-sheet) that it is difficult to find a place in a typical home to display them. The collections of thirty by forties and forty by sixties we are offering this week include many titles that are both rare AND desirable! What makes our auctions different from those of other major sellers? REMEMBER THAT (unlike some other sellers of movie posters) WE ARE NOT TALKING ABOUT 99 CENTS, PLUS $9 BUYERS PREMIUM, PLUS AN OFTEN "MIS-CALCULATED" SHIPPING THAT MEANS THOSE "99 CENT ITEMS" MAY END UP COSTING YOU $17 EACH! In OUR auctions, you can purchase up to FIFTEEN 99 cent items and your total cost is $14.85, plus a very reasonable $5.50 U.S. shipping charge for a total U.S. cost for those 15 items of just over $20 for ALL fifteen of them! Remember that YOU can't get those great deals if you aren't bidding! AND YOU HAVE NOTHING TO LOSE! If you place a bunch of fairly low bids but only get one or two items, then you are sure to be happy, for you will have gotten some really good deals. Even if you place a bunch of bids and get nothing at all, you will only be out a little of your time, and no more. Do you know about our Tuesday and Thursday Auction Galleries? One of the worst kept "secrets" in the movie poster hobby is that it is FAR easier to look at our items through our <http://www.emovieposter.com/gallery/currentauctions.php>Tuesday Auction Gallery and our <http://www.emovieposter.com/gallery/thursdayauctions.php>Thursday Auction Gallery. When you look at our items on eBay, you do not see an image of the item until you open the auction, which is very time consuming (we don't use their "gallery" image, both because it is absurdly overpriced and because the gallery image is too tiny to see any details). So instead, we have our own <http://www.emovieposter.com/gallery/currentauctions.php>Tuesday Auction Gallery and our <http://www.emovieposter.com/gallery/thursdayauctions.php>Thursday Auction Gallery, both of which have much larger images of each item, so that you can determine if an item interests you BEFORE you click on it, thus making your surfing time far more ! productive. PLUS these galleries are searchable by star, director, genre, year, or anything you want to search for! Once you discover our galleries we would be amazed if you go back to looking at our items directly on eBay. The prices in our galleries update every 5 minutes, so the price under each item can only be up to 5 minutes old. Generally, this is no big deal, EXCEPT if you are looking at items as they are closing, then we recommend you bid on the actual eBay page (which is easily accessed from our gallery pages). But because so many of our bidders now use our gallery, on rare occasions it has overwhelmed our server, and some of our bidders have not been able to access it, especially right when the auctions are closing. Worse yet, an outage in our server means that you can't see the images on our eBay auctions, because our large and super-sized images are housed on the same server as our <http://www.emovieposter.com/gallery/currentauctions.php>Tuesday Auction Gallery. SO WE HAVE ALSO CREATED <http://www.emovieposter.info>BACKUP "MIRROR" VERSIONS OF OUR CURRENT AUCTION IMAGE GALLERIES. They are located at <http://www.emovieposter.info>http://www.emovieposter.info and are available if our main gallery is down, so the only time you want to use it is whenever you CAN'T access our regular <http://www.emovieposter.com/gallery/currentauctions.php>Tuesday Auction Gallery and our <http://www.emovieposter.com/gallery/thursdayauctions.php>Thursday Auction Gallery, OR when you can't view ! some or all of the images on our auctions (even if you can't see them on eBay, you will be able to see them in our backup galleries). You will likely either never need it, or only use it once, but if you are a regular bidder in our auctions, it will be invaluable to you the day you DO need it, for you will be able to see all of our large images, and use this "mirror" version of our Current Auction Image Gallery, even though the main version is unavailable. PLEASE ADD <http://www.emovieposter.info>http://www.emovieposter.info TO YOUR FAVORITES/BOOKMARKS. We have lots of great auctions coming up! On Tuesday May 10th, we will add 600 really top quality individual lobby cards (many of which are in wonderful, completely unrestored condition)! You won't want to miss this auctions! On Thursday May 12th, we will add approximately 300 27" x 40" unfolded one-sheets (including many teasers and advances, and many desirable titles) to eBay in our fourth Thursday night auctions! Good luck on whatever you may bid on!
