WE CURRENTLY HAVE REALLY SENSATIONAL AUCTIONS (of 3,538 vintage 8" x 10"
stills in 451 lots with 2 to 56 stills per lot, with most of four or more!)
CLOSING TODAY, January 24th!
WITH JUST HOURS TO GO, THERE ARE STILL OVER 250 OF THESE LOTS UNDER $10 PER
LOT AND OVER 80 AT JUST 99 CENTS EACH! And that's per LOT, not per STILL!
There are lots with five, ten and even 20 stills that are still 99 cents for
ALL the stills!
IN NOVEMBER, WE SOLD 599 LOTS OF STILLS FROM THESE SAME TWO COLLECTIONS, AND
AFTER THE AUCTIONS CLOSED, WE RECEIVED LOTS OF E-MAILS FROM PEOPLE WHO ARE
SORRY THEY HAD NOT BID HIGHER ON ONE OR MORE OF THE LOTS. Please realize
that we are running out of the stills from these amazing collections, and we
have enough to do one more small auction of these groups of stills from
these collections a couple of months from now. THIS REALLY IS A REALLY
WONDERFUL COLLECTION OF STILLS AND UNBELIEVABLY GOOD CONDITION, AND I WOULD
THINK THAT STILL COLLECTORS (and dealers) WILL BE THINKING ABOUT THIS
AUCTION FOR SOMETIME TO COME (and kicking themselves over some of the lots
that they missed out on!).
There are definitely many lots here where I have previously sold SINGLE
stills for $10 or $20 each, and yet the entire lot of four (or ten or 20)
stills is currently only $10 or $20 for ALL OF THEM! In many cases, you can
buy the lot, sell off just a few of the stills individually for the same or
more than you paid for all of them, and end up with great free stills!
On January 17th, we added 3,538 vintage 8" x 10" stills in 451 lots with 2
to 56 stills per lot, with most of four or more! and they close on Thursday,
January 24th! Read more about these below, or go see them right now (with
large thumbnails and links to these on eBay for easy bidding) in our
Thursday Auction Gallery!

Note that these stills come to us from two amazing sources:
One is from the collection of a New York City publicist who worked in
the movie business in the late 1960s and early 1970s. He was sent large
numbers of mostly black-and-white stills from movies being released at that
time, including all of the very best titles. The studios sent these stills
directly to him, to aid him in publicizing the movies (often they would also
include a sheet or several sheets with captions for the stills, or with
information about the movie). Unlike the vast majority of publicists, who
would discard the stills or give them away, this particular publicist
carefully stored all of the stills he was sent and is only now first
offering them for sale! Not only has this collection not been "picked over",
but the stills are also in remarkable condition (most look as though they
were just printed, but we assure you they were not!).
The second collection comes to us from a theater owner and covers a
wider range of years than the above collection, including many going back to
the 1930s and 1940s, and they are slightly in lesser condition than the
above collection (but they are still overall in really excellent condition).
Putting the two collections together in one offering makes one of the
best collections of stills ever offered at one time, on eBay or anywhere
else! This is like entering a time machine and going back 30 or more years,
and entering a poster exchange, and giving them a list of titles, and having
them say, "oh yes, we have all of those"!
Best of all, all of the stills are being sold with no reserve in an
opening bid of just 99 cents (per lot, NOT per still!). This means you could
theoretically purchase a lot of 50 stills for just a couple of cents each
(and while we do not think that could happen, you may well see some of these
lots selling for just pennies per still, and probably a fair number of them
will sell for under one dollar per still, even though they are in pristine
condition!).
REMEMBER THAT, IN BOTH OF OUR WEEKLY AUCTIONS (unlike some other sellers of
vintage movie paper), EVERY SINGLE ONE OF OUR ITEMS TRULY START AT 99 CENTS
WITH NO RESERVE ON ANY ITEM! AND WE ARE NOT TALKING ABOUT THE SUPER-INFLATED
SHIPPING AND CRAZY "BUYERS PREMIUMS" YOU SEE IN OTHER MAJOR AUCTIONS! In OUR
auctions, you can purchase up to FIFTEEN 99 cent items and your total cost
is $14.85, plus a very reasonable $9 U.S. shipping charge (we only charge a
flat five dollar U.S. shipping on all of the stills, no matter how many you
get!). AND WE WILL LET YOU COMBINE PURCHASES FROM BOTH TUESDAY AND THURSDAY
INTO A SINGLE PACKAGE (whenever possible), THUS SAVING YOU EVEN MORE!
Remember that YOU can't get the great deals that happen week after week in
our auctions 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 Tuesday Auction Gallery (
http://www.emovieposter.com/gallery/currentauctions.php) and our Thursday
Auction Gallery
(http://www.emovieposter.com/gallery/thursdayauctions.php). 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
Tuesday Auction Gallery and our 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.
Good luck on whatever you may bid on in our current auctions ending on
January 24th!
Be sure to check out our 451 THURSDAY items on eBay (on our "movieposter"
account) sometime BEFORE they end Thursday January 24th, beginning around 7
PM CST (either by going to
http://www.emovieposter.com/gallery/currentauctions.php for our Tuesday
items or by going to
http://www.emovieposter.com/gallery/thursdayauctions.php for our Thursday
items, or by using the link from our HOME page,
http://www.emovieposter.comor by finding us by our eBay user ID,
emovieposter.com). We feel certain that if you purchase even one of them and
then once you see how honestly we describe them and how we charge only the
actual shipping cost and how we send them right out promptly and
well-packed, that you will declare your independence from those auction
houses with the outrageous buyers premiums, the over-graded items, the
misleading images that obscure defects, and the outrageous shipping! Good
luck on whatever you may bid on.
