When I satred my Business in 1977.... all these posters that I see going for big Bux.. were 3.00

matter of fact... some were 1.50... and then I satered scream in when I had to pay 5-6.50

7.00 I was really ticked and when they hit 10.00 it better be good or I was funing.... ala Yosemti Sam style..

The 40 x60s we could give away... Insert fooey,,,, and lobby cards just didnt impress but the die hard collectors..

And remember we had little rolled posters,, it was most folded.... then cam the rolled in the 80s..

sparse but we had some... and then people demanded rolled..... all the time I said buy because you love

the art or film NOT FOR INVESTING,...... except........ the vintage as look at that.... I passed on GWTW ( running scarlet) 600.00 as I thought it was TOO High..:)

But some of this stuff Ill do ok not because I was smart ahhhhh becayuse I was dumb and didnt knwo it would appreciate,,, think about that.

And if you look most collectable became collectables.. because someon liked them when they were unvaluable...... then they became vouge,,, and then the value raised,, interesting cycle

I bought Conan the barbarian as 1st quantity,,, then I bought like 500 sat night fever for 1.00 each

the last poster i speculated was some start wars episode 1 I had some that Drew signed for us at the star wars celbration in Denver..

I did buy uo soe titles like superman 2 and , jewel of the nile..and others

Its been awhile as I needed to sell off like 100,000 video posters.. and other stuff...

The stuff I have left is collect quality material... the horror titles are rare,

I like posters,,, nothing like the smell of a one sheet on a brisk mornin..... ahhhhhh

Rich is right about that. It will end up as things did when the sold over 3,000,000 copies of Spider-Man #1 (MacFarlane) and people started hoarding 300 copies at a time because they thought for sure it would go up, but didn't. I came in during my comic buying days and bought many of those poor disillusioned folks out at a fraction of face value. Yes, this is one to buy just because you love the movie and want a copy for your collection but since they are selling them off the website I am pretty certain investment value will never be a big purchase factor. Just my 2 coppers pennies worth. Rick

Subject: Re: [MOPO] Mopo - wanted to buy or trade

well it looks like it has finally happened

a studio has finally figured out to sell original Theatrical posters to the people

they have original posters for sale at that link and it says plainly
"Printed as part of the original theatrical print run"

they probably printed 250,000 of them to be able to offer them to the public & distribute to theatres..
