Thank God Kirby and Austin didn't get it! Thank God your daughter is in Junior High now! What an awful week. If anyone hears from anyone who got the storm, please let us know they're OK.

Thanks,
Andrea

Good to hear Kirby that you are safe. I have been watching the scenario unfold most of the week. One of the problems I see now is that all the people who were told to evacuate that didn't are now having to be rescued which adds to the already awful sitution officials are dealing with. We had our own "situation" here in Chatsworth on Friday afternoon when a Metrorail train collided head on with a freight train. The tracks where the accident occured run right alongside my daughter's elementary school. In fact the grassy area that was shown on the t.v. as the triage area was their playing field. We worried for years about those track locations hoping that no train would ever jump the track and head into a playing field with children on it. She is now in jr. high school about a block up the road but was being picked up from volleyball practice exactly as the trains collided. So, it was a mess and a very sad situation.

So, everyone take care out there and be safe!

It is doubtful that anyone on the list who really experienced this storm is really even in a position to get this post. There is no power. The upper Texas coast is a mess. Even though the storm was actually not as bad as Texas officials had feared, nevertheless it was awful. There is no power for almost 2 MILLION people. When people tell you that everything in Texas is big, that includes power outages as well. Flooding is widespread and is being complicated today by additional, non - hurricane related rains caused by a cool front wringing moisture from the coastal atmosphere. This means that the hurricane flooding is being hampered in draining. There haven't been a lot of deaths reported, but this may be because rescue teams cannot get into some of the residential areas yet.
In short, it's a wreck.

Here in Austin we did not even get one drop of rain or any high wind. This was a different scenario than the one posited at the beginning of last week, when Austin was in the storm target area.

First off... Hope every one in Texas is doing OK after the big blow...

Secondly, I was offered a trade today for an original release High Society one sheet. It wasn't folded and had no NSS number. Other than that all the printing on the bottom was correct for that poster.

It was 27x40 1/2. It was obviously trimmed on the bottom as the trim was not as sharp as the other three sides. There was nothing indicating it was a reprint.

I explained to him that I felt it was a reprint but he insisted that he worked at MGM and has had this poster since the mid-sixties and that it came from the president's office. He also claimed to have sold another exactly like it, unfolded. Another red flag I thought. Following all that the paper didn't feel right either.

Anyone know of early reprints on this title or run across anything like this on this title before? I'd like to be honest with the guy and tell him exactly what he has.

I would appreciate any comments.

Many thanks,

Glenn T.
