Hi Kirby
I think that's really interesting that you don't collect, as I suspect most of 
the other major dealers do.  And I imagine that a lot of dealers got into 
dealing via being collectors themselves.
Why do you think it would be a "bad idea" for you to have a collection and what 
would you collect if you did?
Cheers
Neil

Neil, et al


I did not collect posters when I was a kid.  In fact, the first time
I ever heard of anyone collecting film posters was when my cousin,
Bill Withers, started collecting them from Eddie Brandt about 1972.
I thought: what an odd thing to want to own.  Many years later I bought
my first group of posters, and quite honestly I intended to flip that lot
and to continue to do what I was doing, which was nothing in particular.
But that did not work out and I started selling posters.

The truth is I have never been a collector of film posters and I
am not, truly, a collector today.  An odd thing for someone who
owns thousands of them.  

I am a dealer.  When I have at times contemplated starting
a collection myself, I have always rejected the idea.

I think that, for me, this would be a bad idea.

Every poster that I have may be purchased.

Of course, I get to enjoy seeing many posters and I do enjoy helping
people find things and David, Steve and I enjoy of course, selling from the
MovieArt World Headquarters in Austin.

Best,
Kirby
