i thought it was ironic that last monday, the day of a substantial stock crash, 
i bought the following poster. if you don't know the story........the 1929 
crash happens at the beginning of the movie.??it was delivered, and in great 
condition:

i, also, have the insert is GREAT condition, that i got earlier this year at 
less than half what i paid for this near mint, unbacked one sheet.

Subject: [MOPO] Movie Paper and The Domestic / World Economy


Mopos -?
?
Given the size of the shake-up (or more to the point shake-down) of our 
economy,?
it seems like there's been a conspicuous absence of discussion how this turn of 
events affects our world of paper.?
?
I know it is perhaps a bit early to tell -?
but I am curious how those of us that make even a partial living on selling 
posters and memorabilia (include comics, props, toys, autographs, cards, etc.) 
are doing.?
?
Are you finding big drops or is memorabilia holding its value??
What do you forsee in the immediate and long term future for material??
Are some things selling better due to the general downswing??
(I.E. Certain types of buyers finding security or at least tangibility in 
object investment vs. financial investment?)?
Are some things hardest hit due to the above??
Are folks going to the movies more as they did when times were tough in the 
good old depression??
How fares our international brethren on all topics??
?
Just thought it might be illucidating to share our issues, concerns and 
observations.?
