Great photos! But I wasn't aware Claude carried a walking stick.......though
it does look like he is loving retirement.

and had the great pleasure to visit Claude Litton at his home in New Jersey. While I
knew Claude had a large poster collection, never in my most vivid imagination was I
prepared for what I saw and I would say without hesitation if you haven't seen it
you ain't seen nothing yet and it ain't just posters, promotional and prop items and
vintage mechanical arcade games as well as a variety of statuettes of movie stars.
Dr. Volin should be all over it. I was there to pick up a few frames Claude was
selling but came away feeling it would have been worth the two hour trip from long
island just to see the collection or should I say part of it. It's one thing to see
these posters in catalogues it's another to see them framed on the wall, an!
d were talking a lot of walls. Unfortunately time was limited and Claude was
having work done in the house but he gave me a quick tour including a look at
his most prized poster the only known copy of a one sheet for Charley Chan The
Black Camel. As many of you may know, Claude is a huge Chan poster collector.
My son was with me and snapped a couple of pictures(me on the right Claude on
the left) It really was heaven..in NJ? go figure...click links for
pictures..best Alan
