*IT MUST BE BECAUSE THE HOLIDAYS ARE JUST AROUND THE CORNER, BUT I JUST LOOKED OVER THE** 719 ONE-SHEETS CLOSING TONIGHT, AND I SAW LOTS AN**D LOTS OF REALLY WILDLY UNDER-PRICED ITEMS, SO IF YOU LIKE THESE POSTERS AT ALL, THEN BE SURE TO LOOK THEM OVER VERY CAREFULLY, BECAUSE AS OF RIGHT NOW, THERE ARE INCREDIBLE DEALS.
**We have * 719 rolled (or formerly folded) 27x40 & 27x41 one-sheets at auction, and there are just 13 hours to go before they start to end * TONIGHT <http://www.emovieposter.com/agallery/sort/4/14.html> * Thursday, December 22nd. I just looked over the current prices on these just about to end items, and the prices on many of them are really hard to believe! With just over a day to go, the 999 lots of vintage 8" x 10" stills include a laughable 63 that still have no bid at all, a makes-you-want-to-cry 148 that are still wilting at just $1 each or have no bid, a truly insane 308 that are still withering at just $3 each or under, and a Mt. Everest-like 410 that are $5 each or under! *THAT'S RIGHT, WELL OVER HALF ARE CURRENTLY $5 EACH OR UNDER AND ALMOST 40% OF THE ITEMS ARE CURRENTLY $3 EACH OR UNDER! * Of course, once you get *OVER* just $5, you start hitting lots and lots of "better" titles, but an awful lot of those are currently at *VERY*reasonable prices, far under what some of them have sold for in the past (the ones we can find any record of selling in the past!) including: 7c318 JAWS 1sh '75 art of Steven Spielberg's classic man-eating shark attacking sexy swimmer! 7c183 ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK 1sh '81 John Carpenter, art of decapitated Lady Liberty by S.

Are you tired of auctions for millionaires only where the items have a "round up the usual suspects" feel to them, and there is a "pay retail or you can't buy" philosophy behind the auctions, and the same items return to the auction block over and over and over? Well, we have the antidote for you! Three times * EVERY* week we auction hundreds of items that sell for low, low prices (we actually sell lots and lots of items for $1 and $2, and around half of all that we auction goes for $14 and under, and our leading "competitor" *NEVER* auctions a single item for less than *FIFTEEN DOLLARS*, due to their outrageous $14 minimum buyers premium). But wait! There's even more! If you are one of the 6,900+ members of our weekly e-mail club (and if you are not, you can join right now!), you get great bonuses if you purchase just 10 or 15 or 20 of these items, and we even pay the U.S. shipping on the bonuses (if you live outside the U.S., you pay the difference between U.S. shipping and the actual cost of getting them to you). Don't forget to check out our 719 rolled (or formerly folded) 27x40 & 27x41 one-sheets sometime *BEFORE* they end *TONIGHT* Thursday, December 22nd, (but you only have 13 hours left to do so, because they start ending at 7 PM CST * TONIGHT*) by going to * http://www.emovieposter.com/agallery/sort/4/14.html* * About the rolled one-sheet posters* * *Note that most of the posters we are selling this week were never folded. A very few of the posters were once folded (or partially folded, as in tri-folding), but all of those have been stored flat for a long time and will be shipped rolled in tubes, along with the completely unfolded ones. We will * NOT* re-fold any of the "formerly folded" posters.* WE ALWAYS IDENTIFY WHETHER A POSTER IS UNFOLDED, TRI-FOLDED, OR FORMERLY FULLY FOLDED WITHIN THE DESCRIPTION FOR EACH ITEM! NOTE THAT NORMALLY WE SEPARATE THE 27X40 AND 27X41 ONE-SHEETS INTO TWO ENTIRELY SEPARATE AUCTIONS, BUT IN THIS ONE SET OF AUCTIONS WE ARE AUCTIONING BOTH SIZES (but we still clearly identify on each auction which are 27x40s and which are 27x41s).* *About the originality of rolled one-sheets** *Many collectors would like to add posters from their favorite movies of the 1970s onward to their collection, but they rightfully are afraid they will be sold commercial posters (or reproductions or bootlegs), rather than actual posters either used in theaters or intended for theater use. *WHEN YOU BUY FROM US THIS WEEK, YOU HAVE A GUARANTEE THAT YOU WILL BE BUYING A GENUINE ORIGINAL MOVIE POSTERS! *This is because almost all of these posters come to us either from theater owners, or from advanced collectors (often ones who purchased the posters right when the movies first came out), people who know how to distinguish an original poster, and also, we here at eMoviePoster very carefully scrutinize every poster to make 100% certain it is genuine! But you don't have to take our word for it! *If you purchase any poster this week, and you have the slightest doubts about its originality after you receive it, it is fine for you to return it for a full refund within 7 days of receipt* (but we virtually never get a single poster returned, because we reject any poster that is consigned to us if we have the slightest doubts about it!). * * * About the condition* Normally when we sell movie paper, we grade the posters on a scale that allows for some defects typical of 30 to 75-year-old movie posters that were actually used in theaters. Such posters often have some minor wear at the very least, and it is next to impossible to find posters that have no wear at all, and it would be silly to have a grading scale where no posters would qualify for "very good to fine" (or better grades), so we use a more "relaxed" scale that allows for very minor defects in our "very good to fine" grade. But in this auction, we are selling a fair number of posters from the past 20 years, and those posters can more often be found in excellent condition, because there were dealers and collectors who purchased these posters unused, and kept them in wonderful condition. So for *THIS* auction, we grade on a *MUCH* stricter scale than we do for our folded one-sheet auctions! We downgrade posters to "very good to fine" for very minor defects (things like a single tiny tear in the border, or faint creases in the edges). We further downgrade to "very good" posters that have several of these types of defects, even though the poster would probably qualify as "fine", if it was from the 1940s! We use this "sliding scale" grading because it allows us to better convey the poster's true condition to our buyers. If we used the exact same scale for all posters, then most 1920s posters would be graded as "fair" or "poor", and most 1980s or 1990s posters would be graded as "fine", and we realize that that benefits nobody! In this auction, we have given a more detailed overall condition grade ("fine", "very good to fine", "very good", "good to very good", "good", and "fair", with only a few "poor") for each poster. We felt this would help bidders identify items they want to bid on more easily. Of course, we still strongly recommend that you look at our super-sized image to see the extent of the defects. Know that we generally grade *FAR* more harshly than any other dealer we know! A 1990s poster that we grade as "good" or "good to very good" may well be one that many collectors could display on their wall just as it is, and may well be one that many other dealers would grade as "very good". So please don't reject a poster because it has a grade of "good" or "good to very good". Please study our supersized image and see if the defects are the sort that you can accept. -- Bruce Hershenson and the other 24 members of the eMoviePoster.com team P.O.
