I collect everything Tommy. I am mostly drawn to graphics but I am fairly obsessive so I might go on a spree to get everything on a particular title or genre and then get bored with it and move on to something else. Right now I am on a hunt for material on All that Money Can Buy. I have found a half sheet and a WC on it in the past month. If anyone has material on this please let me know.
-Peter From: MoPo List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Tommy Barr Sent: Tuesday, October 14, 2014 11:28 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [MOPO] Personal favourites So, to return to calmer waters, the question to Rich about Universal horror posters may have been cheeky but it got me thinking - I wonder what hobbyhorses MOPO members have? By that I mean is there any particular genre, topic, star, etc. that you are keen to collect? I bought a one sheet of the first Durango Kid movie about 6 months ago, and it took me back to my childhood, Saturday afternoon matinees where Durango was my hero.I decided then to try to collect all 65 one sheets from the series, or failing that at least half-sheets or inserts. So far I have managed 6 one sheets,4 half sheets, 1 insert and 2 title cards, as well as various lobby cards and photos. I have no idea whether or not all 65 are available, but I am prepared to be patient - it's a little foible, not something to be fanatical about. I have let some posters slip through my fingers as I thought they were too expensive; maybe they'll appear again at a more reasonable price, maybe not. And if I never collect them all I'll hardly be heartbroken. So, what floats your boat for your personal collection?
