Wasn't Deke a famous record producer or something like that before he was a movie poster dealer?
I imagine many people here remember his "Cryptkeeper" Halloween auctions on eBay, where every item would have an extremely high reserve, but he got an awful lot of people to pay those very high prices, and he was an important part of the dramatic rise of prices on 1940s and 1950s horror sci-fi over the late 1990s and early 2000s. He really loved the posters he bought and sold. On Mon, Mar 25, 2013 at 4:42 AM, <[email protected]> wrote: > Sad news.
