Subject: Re: [MOPO] Bride poster current price

        Heritage hosted a nice little reception tonight.  Besides all the
Mopo'ers meeting for the first time other Mopo'ers (and no doubt thinking
YOU LOOK NOTHING LIKE I THOUGHT YOU WOULD but in a good way.....I am pretty
sure)   absolutely  the star of the show was Todd's advance one sheet for
THE BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN.  They had it in an oversized frame, gloriously
spot lighted on a wall all by itself yet separated by a gauntlet of glass
cabinets.  I wasn't sure if I was suppose to light a candle and genuflect or
plant a tree for Israel.    Yet poster was well  within access and close
enough  (think the Mona Lisa or Moon rocks)  to really encourage close
examination.   What was remarkably impressive in person, besides clearly
noting it was folded/unbacked and in miraculous condition,  was the
blue/green question marks and  the words WHO WILL BE  and WHO WILL DARE
visually screaming against the brick red tones of the poster.  What an
astonishing use of colors.  As great as Herit!
 age's catalogue photography is,  poster remains even more amazing in
person.  And truly a bit arresting seeing such a singularly rare and
historic one sheet from our hobby/business.  Those goddamn Honus Wagner
Baseball Cards  have nothing, NOTHING on Todd's piece.  Hell throw those
firstie Superman or Batman comics and still they would pale.

    On a much lesser but equally dramatic revelation in person was the one
sheet for DODSWORTH (a great film certainly, but what a great one sheet)
the  9 foot Austrian KING KONG (Stunning! So much so I thought Toochis Marin
was going to start crying)  the Bette Davis one sheet for EX-LADY and well
too many others to list.  Staffers were busy all night pulling items for
individuals so the oohs and aahs were consistently floating in the air. Good
grief THE FURY 6 SHEET when brought out was a show stopper.  Probably the
biggest surprise for me personally, was the Mini-Window card for THE WALKING
DEAD.  Good grief, now I know why so many people enjoy collecting these
small treasures. Yeah they are scarce, but the printing consistently
impress.     

        Since Heritage is also hosting an Entertainment and Props auction on
Sunday there were also great costumes (And not one anywhere near my size.
good grief what shrimps movie stars were/are, I am sure I could beat most of
them up) ,  scripts, beautiful photos and props to look at.  Should be a
busy and successful weekend for Grey and the LA based Heritage crew.  Great
to have another major poster auction in LOS ANGELES.  This felt so much like
the stories I have heard regarding Bruce's auctions when he hosted them
here.   Will be attending at least the first wave of bidding tomorrow.  It
will be interesting to see if the location change from Dallas  impacts the
results, but my guess is the internet may simply be such an overwhelming
leveler that it may prove to be moot.  Nevertheless this is a most
appreciative treat for those who live in the City of Angels and vote
Democratic.
