One could make a list as long as an arm. I really only have two I'd love to get for myself now that my own collecting tastes have settled into their post mid-life eccentricities.
A one sheet for THE 7TH VICTIM and an original release Mexican one sheet for EL VAMPIRO satisfying wants for my main areas of collection these days, film noir and vampire films. Being from the old school, trading is much more fun between collectors.

Zeev ----- Original Message ----- From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Sent: Sunday, August 09, 2009 2:57 PM 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? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Visit the MoPo Mailing List Web Site at www.filmfan.com ___________________________________________________________________ How to UNSUBSCRIBE from the MoPo Mailing List Send a message addressed to: [email protected] In the BODY of your message type: SIGNOFF MOPO-L The author of this message is solely responsible for its content.
