The 1933 one sheet from "Supernatural" w/Carole Lombard . The movie
was a a real misfire from what I've heard, but that
poster....absolutely gorgeous. It's going for close to 20K now, from
what I understand, IF you can find one. Since I can barely afford to
buy a one sheet from "The Ice Pirates", I guess Carole won't be
gracing my wall anytime soon.

*Subject:* [MOPO] QUESTION: What's The #1 Poster You Wish You
Could Own But Know You Never Will
Thought I'd steer this back to the realm of poster reality. I
had my fill of priests as an altar boy, generally I don't trust
lawyers and I've been married so many years that I'd rather
discuss posters (they've always been a nice escape in the past).
The knee-jerk reaction to this question is obviously Metropolis
or Frankenstein---something from the top of the list of posters
that realized the highest price in auction. Of course I'm talking
about the cost of the desired poster being prohibitively high--but
also its scarcity on the market.
I think my "dream" poster would be an original Public Enemy US
one sheet. I know I'll never have one. Hey, I don't even know if
one exists.... (I've actually heard a rumor over the years about a
certain long time collector who has one in his collection...but
that's just a rumor). I realize that a Public Enemy one sheet
would be worth over 50 grand, but I'm not really talking about the
money here. I'm talking about the passion for the piece. I'm
sure every collector has that one poster that they've always
wanted, but know unless they win the lottery AND they're lucky
enough to stumble upon it...alas, it will never be theirs.
Does anyone else out there have a poster like my Public Enemy
one sheet?
