Yes indeed, Lambert, Hendricks and Ross were mistaken. It probably is "Twisted" for dealers to also be collectors!
For those not familiar with the song here are the closing lines from the song ...... My analyst told me that I was right out of my head But I said dear doctor I think that it's you instead Because I've got a thing that's unique and new To prove that I'll have the last laugh on you 'Cause instead of one head I've got two And you know two heads are better than one ----- Original Message ----- From: Kirby McDaniel To: [email protected] Sent: Saturday, February 18, 2012 1:17 AM Subject: Re: [MOPO] QUESTION ABOUT THE SIZE OF SILENCE OF THE LAMBS Exactly. Thanks, Rich, for answering this. I think for me, as a dealer, it's better to have one head rather than two. Apologies to Lambert, Hendricks and Ross!

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 From: Kirby McDaniel <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Friday, 17 February 2012, 1:28 Subject: Re: [MOPO] QUESTION ABOUT THE SIZE OF SILENCE OF THE LAMBS 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.
