Managed to by a couple of poster lots I could NOT touch the photo lots that
I wanted. I think that some new benchmarks were set for movie stills and
hope that the trend continues. Although  did not attend someone was
previewing for me. I agree with Rich a lot of great stuff to be had but it
had to be looked at.

Subject: Re: [MOPO] OT?: Profiles in History auction

Well I was in the room bidding & it took me so long to win anything I
thought we might not get anything

fortunately we did get to spend a lot

I bid on all the large lots and they were crazy

I bid up one of my best friends to $54k on the 11,000 poster lot (there were
really 30,000 posters & lobbies there)

the stills lots (the huge ones) actually sold for reasonable prices when you
consider that 500,000 stills might retail at $5,000,000

however the file drawer lots of posters - alot went for close to retail and
it wasn't until we were all getting tired that prices dropped enough for me
to win stuff

the keybook stills were universally outrageous. More power to those folks. 2
buyers each spent almost 500K each on keybook & top quality stills lots

If you didn't go to the pre view you didn't know what there was. I was there
and there was a lot of great stuff to be had. some of it I won and Sean too
who I was also bidding for

but yes. in general the prices were high unless you really examined the lots
like Sean & I did and Heritage and several other buyers

to be honest.. Ihope we see another auction like it sometime soon
