You are right Jim. I had tons of customers that were bidding on this auction and many of them won their bids, even some of the high end titles and many that bought mulitple items. So, that is a great sign for our hobby and our economy. Many of my customers already have their posters on the way to me for archival framing. Can't wait to see them. That is the fun part of my job!! Take care all. Sue www.hollywoodposterframes.com

Thats fantastic. With the economy the way it is, it is hard to know just where our hobby stands. However, I think that 1220 bidders is a good sign of health.
