when I got the collection the man stated they told me dont laminate
them but i did anyway... soIhad always thought well it will kill the
value as colectables and kinda didnt think about t much as I saw one
sheets hat I thought would be my main sellers.... and i noticed some
where re-release on that as I just quickly went through as the books and
magazines and all was overwhelming...then before i looked again I
mentioned on newsgroups like facebook that I had thses kinda as a heads
up teaser,,, so today I started to put the pieces together more like a
ginat puzzle as I am starting to see the big picture..
when people collect they get things over time and in various
locations... lobbie cards they might get one here one there and they
build the sets,,,some never finish or get a badly beat up one or a full
set in great shpae,,, so also they may get areprint as afiller or just a
intereting card a re-relaease and also a original release... so.... all
those things .. I had a huge stack in lamination.... but I also had
stray cards mixed withe the folded one sheets.. so now Ive been sorting
to see if I have Full sets and if the cards are original release or
re-release.. as he had many single carfds from som great film
titles..the key is whicj ones are genuine,,,, so heres a inetersting
fact there are many thatno one would ever reprint as they where so so
films or obscure so Im certain they are real.. then there are the real
ones that I was lucky to verify as he had left ut some of the cards from
lamination so I know thse are real,,, then the re-release are self
explanatory... that leaves the monster cards .. because I know he bought
somem from Borch arcival photography n detroit I know some have to be
reprints byt some may be original as that can be also...whats great is
they are almost full sets on many of them and the cards themselves are
just fantastic and would be very hard to even find as a reprint and are
stunning,,, and in lamination... so they are truly preserved,.,,
so I have had a few thoughts,,, I know Gerg douglas and others that love
that genre would eat hese up.. so I thought maybe what I need to do is
reprint hese in digital at a very low cost so all horror buffs can have
them then everyone can get some.. I alsothought I could take these cards
around in a tarveling exhibit and allow kids and retire s to pass them
around and see the movies give a talk and show a film and it may be cool
as they cany\t rip them up so the lamination is a blessing...so whats
cool about this is there are many options and im still ascertaining
which one s are real and not but im getting very close and many are
original just laminated is all... so.. its been fun.. I actually broke
into a sweat when I thought I told him at firts I would neot even have
interst and I offered thes in a lot to one dealer who said ILL pass so
its funny how opportunities can be right in fron t of you and you not
even know it... the sage continues...
