Congratulations Scott,
I guess you are correct Scott; Listserv is a bit out of vogue, but through
your sincere guardianship it remains as strong as ever. You sir, must take
credit for that. I consider it as one of the last true bastions of the hobby!
I walked into a second hand book store in Northhampton MA circa
1968......on the wall was a used framed one sheet of "My Darling
Clementine". Many of you remember the gorgeous graphic on that 1sheet; I
bought it for $30.00. Since that day, movie posters, have , in some shape
or form, occupied my "every day". (A-yup!)

The first poster(s) I bought were 17,000 sheets of various sizes in 1979
in New Orleans. I had seen a list, but I did not even look at them.
Congrats, Scott, for leading us here.
Best,
Kirby

Fathoms 1sh along with a Thing From Another World 1sh back in 1968 at the
NY Comicon. Later that day I bought a DTESS pressbook.

sold and made more money on before the weekend was out

"Mr. Hobbs Takes a Vacation". I bought this treasure from none other
than Bruce Carteron at the Denver poster store "Cinegraphics". Which if
you are keeping score, was (sad to say it closed) next door to Chipotle
#1. If you want see a picture of the store, visit your local Chipotle
and look at the pictures on the wall, its in the background (preserved
for eternity).
