So if Cinevent is able to find a replacement venue (if not this year, then 2016) will this Cleveland show then compete on the same Memorial Day weekend? Morrie states that this will be a “show that you will wish to attend for many years.” If that’s the case, dealers will have to make a choice, as will attendees. Is that a good thing for collectors?
Scott MoPo List Owner From: MoPo List [mailto:mopo-l@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU] On Behalf Of Morris Everett Jr. Sent: Sunday, March 01, 2015 9:00 PM To: MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU Subject: [MOPO] Hollywood Poster Auction and Convention 2015 - Cleveland, OHIO! For 20 years, the Hollywood Poster Auction and Cinevent were paired successfully in Columbus on Memorial Day Weekend. Saddened by the challenges that Steve Haynes has had to deal with recently, and the closing of the past venue, the Ramada, I have had to move quickly to assure that my consignors would be well served, and family members who run my auction with me would have everything in place and ready to go by May 23. Time has been of the essence. Attempts to find another place in Columbus for a seamless transition have failed for me, as there was not a venue suitable to both the convention's and my needs space wise. What was found to meet the needs of a film show was not adequate to give me what what was required for my auction. Encouraged by several colleagues and collectors to move the auction to Cleveland, I quickly acted and found the Sheraton Hotel at Cleveland Hopkins Airport to be more than suitable in many respects. Steve and I are on the best of terms, and understand each other's difficulties at this time, and we have wished each other well as we move forward. We will both have dealer's rooms, but our conventions will be quite different. Steve will focus on film and I , of course, on movie memorabilia. Details will follow in the next Classic Images for hotel, auction, and dealer table information. Special pricing will be available. Please call The Last Moving Picture Company, 440-256-3660, and speak to Dwayne or myself. I am looking forward to a show that you will wish to attend for many years. Dealer packets will be sent to all dealers who have done my New York, Chicago, and Hollywood shows in the past. Let us know if your address has changed. Your support will be appreciated!
