Dan, What a lovely tribute! I didn't know Steve, but your words make me realize what I missed. I will join you in your toast to those who have worked so hard to keep the cinevent convention alive despite terrible odds.

steve haynes was one of the singular greatest treasures of the film-loving and poster collecting communities for as far back as i can remember, and i go pretty far back. he will be truly sorely missed, and i would have said irreplaceable, but for the fact that i believe his son and others on his team are already doing a terrific job rescuing this historic convention from what otherwise might have been ashes (or icicles is maybe a better analogy considering the demise of the ramada plaza). just the fact that the convention has survived the onslaught of internet and screen-based impersonal transactions for nearly all movie poster collecting is a miracle in itself. cheers to all involved, and i raise a glass of sturdy microbrew to my absent friend steve haynes. daniel strebin aka dan the posterman -----Original Message----- From: Scott Burns Sent: Apr 21, 2015 8:36 AM To: MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU Subject: [MOPO] We've Lost Cinevent's Steve Haynes I’m so very sad to report that Steve Haynes, one of the original founders of Cinevent, passed away this morning after a short battle with cancer. Steve was a great guy and the ultimate classic film lover. I will miss his presence at Cinevent.
