I have been in this Business since 1977 and many times things come into question.. as mopers know I had a Oscar® that created lots of hoopla andthrough the years may diffeant event happened that brought my character and business under scrutiny. I will say this that if the auction house and dealers are not upfront It gets out eventually and the people nowdays with the net can varify.. I just spoke to a man that started the large character business and sol a C-3po for 46,000.00 and many of the props to Planet Hollywood.. we talked on the phone and knew many of the same people,,back in 70s and 80s the stuff was cheap.. I mean you could get this stuff for like 300 a costome and John lebold bought stuff for 50 cents at the studios, they evem burned King KONG set or GWTW..he owns the King kong armature anyway it gets hard to prove provenance as many wish to stay out of lime light, SO my disaster today.. was my 1st water flood in basement....... what I cant believe is that I stacked paper in the basement... this tops heritage in my eyes..... I shoud be tared and feathered so i did put some 2 x4 under some boxes... So what did i lose... Some moviemagazines and some paper and some BOOKs Most books and superb books.. Like the Hiurrell style MGM lion Roars signe by Ted Turnerm Loys of Films of maybe 30 books.. Ive been trying to dry page by page with a hair dryer... I was so overwhemled at seeing 3 inchs of water i couldnt function and threw up in the store parking lot when i got the sump pump.. these books were titles i save years ... Good news is most was above water so I saved them..... But ill tell you when you get that experiance.its stressfull.. I suggest everyone not follow that what i did and get your boxes in areas wher water wont com it Visit the MoPo Mailing List Web Site at www.filmfan.com ___________________________________________________________________ How to UNSUBSCRIBE from the MoPo Mailing List Send a message addressed to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the BODY of your message type: SIGNOFF MOPO-L The author of this message is solely responsible for its content.
