Sorry, but whether you're speaking of Japanese movie posters, U.S. movie
posters or movie posters from ANY country----the posters from the past 20
years---because they've been so mass-produced---will NEVER reach the level of
rarity, value or collectability of the movie posters from the silent era to
the early 40's. Of course, I'm not talking about ALL movie posters from
that period of time. A huge number of posters were destroyed/recycled in the
early stages of World War II, which increases their rarity. I can almost
guarantee that 40 years from now no movie poster from the 1990's will sell
for the equivalent of today's price of $200,000---an amount a few movie
posters have brought in auction over the past few years. The movie posters of
the 80's and 90's were produced in such incredibly large quantities that it
will never happen. True, I didn't spend a lot of time looking over your
website containing the "best Japanese movie poster collection in the world".
Where would I find "The Seven Samurai"? Oh, I'm sorry--I forgot. That
wasn't a film from the 90's, was it?
