Greg,
Since  you are a musician, I imagine there have been times when you needed an 
expedited passport, visa, travel documents or last minute plane tickets. As you 
know, these last minute services can cost hundreds of dollars in fees and 
messenger costs.

I perform a similar service on behalf of clients of Mr. Clarence Mobutu. I 
encourage you to send me $5000 and your Power of Attorney. For that small sum, 
I can then expedite the processing of your relative's estate and get you moved 
to the front of the line with Mr. Mobutu. In this way, you will receive your 
15.5 Amerikan Dollars 18 months earlier than you are now expecting. The 
interest you will earn by having that estate money 18 months earlier, will more 
than pay for my small fee.

Subject: Re: [MOPO] Posterfix problem?

    Anybody remember Eugene Hughes? Eugene and I were friends for several 
years...he was a funny and charming guy despite his  apparent total lack of 
ethics...and I was saddened and horrified to see what happened with him, his 
business, and a number of MOPO members. Hughes took on too much work for too 
little money and it all ended up horribly wrong. I eventually got my posters 
back. They were indeed all dry and the restoration was...credible. Interested 
to hear what happened with any other MOPO-ites who dealt with Eugene.
    It takes a real leap of faith to send a valuable piece of paper to someone 
under any circumstances. Factor in the fact that you have to trust their 
ability to do a first-rate cosmetic enhancement of something you may be 
reselling someday and, boy, you've got fodder for a few sleepless nights. Put 
the turnaround time and price in there and you've got a potential cluster f**k 
waiting to happen.
    I live in North County San Diego, which is home to a lot of restorers, so I 
can just drop stuff off and pick it up later. Another benefit of the 
face-to-face thing is being able to talk shop and gossip with artists and 
managers. Diane Jefferys of Studio C is a lovely person and I have never had 
anything but top-of-the-food-chain service from that group of folks. Haven't 
been there in years but now that I'm getting back into buying.....(My 
relationship goes all the way back to Joe Hernandez....THAT name alone is good 
for a few minutes of back room whispers at a poster show!...who showed me 
around their old facility in Oceanside, CA. The late Susan Olson, a great 
restoration artist, brought me into the fold, and provided me with all manner 
of back stories on people.) Ours is a very small hobby and word of consistently 
shoddy workmanship or less-than-honest behavior gets around fast, especially 
with cybernetic ally enhanced communication. 
    One learns who to trust pretty quickly...for the most part. I'm still 
waiting to hear back from Clarence Mobutu, the African lawyer who promised me 
13.5 million in Amerikan dollers from the estate of a long-lost relative. I 
sent him 10 grand to do the paperwork 7 months ago and haven't heard a thing. 
I'm sure it'll all work out though. 
    Eugene Hughes vouched for Clarence 100%.
