The woman says her rich friends aren’t particularly happy. I did read a study that claimed that “money happiness” maxes out at $75K a year. You can live comfortably and have some discretionary spending as well at that level....

I don't think thats remotely realistic. I don't think its worth more than $100,000 still a good deal for a $2000 buy in Cory Glaberson [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> -----Original Message----- From: Susan Heim <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> To: MoPo-L <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Sent: Thu, Jan 4, 2018 1:02 pm Subject: Re: [MOPO] Short film on Newspaper Movie Ads Wow, the film production was great.

In 1999, two friends went into a Nebraska antique shop and found a massive collection of letterpress blocks and plates that were used to make advertisements for movies in newspapers. They bought the whole shebang for $2000 and have spent the last 17 years cataloging and cleaning the 60,000 plates & blocks. The collection, which spans nearly the entire history of the film industry from the silent era to 1984, was recently appraised at ~$10 million and is available for acquisition. <https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__eur02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com_-3Furl-3Dhttps-253A-252F-252Fkottke.org-252F18-252F01-252Fa-2Dshort-2Dfilm-2Dabout-2Da-2Done-2Dof-2Da-2Dkind-2Dcollection-2Dof-2Dletterpress-2Dplates-2Dfor-2Dprinting-2Dfilm-2Dadvertisements-26data-3D02-257C01-257C-257C1a3806fad9eb481ac4f408d5539fe886-257C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa-257C1-257C0-257C636506868613757069-26sdata-3DItxSay2IH8NUGLODybnfpX7stb7LaFdQ-252BHLzogBU9SU-253D-26reserved-3D0&d=DwMFaQ&c=03pYNlCxo1ES3gYVXxnxa61Lf80sedKVS5k9kL9xToA&r=5Zsg7Uh_TXidOEjAziT8qDdZz28JZS1XAJHmIoJP84s&m=HATfoFjDRHBHNr-HZrAwLgv6yvvpAcimh68wP1yLd7s&s=el9ymTa4RR6ak_BOVE1RAmjxFqUz_ZN3pphozNElCbE&e=> https://kottke.org/18/01/a-short-film-about-a-one-of-a-kind-collection-of-letterpress-plates-for-printing-film-advertisements<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__eur02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com_-3Furl-3Dhttps-253A-252F-252Fkottke.org-252F18-252F01-252Fa-2Dshort-2Dfilm-2Dabout-2Da-2Done-2Dof-2Da-2Dkind-2Dcollection-2Dof-2Dletterpress-2Dplates-2Dfor-2Dprinting-2Dfilm-2Dadvertisements-26data-3D02-257C01-257C-257C1a3806fad9eb481ac4f408d5539fe886-257C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa-257C1-257C0-257C636506868613757069-26sdata-3DItxSay2IH8NUGLODybnfpX7stb7LaFdQ-252BHLzogBU9SU-253D-26reserved-3D0&d=DwMFaQ&c=03pYNlCxo1ES3gYVXxnxa61Lf80sedKVS5k9kL9xToA&r=5Zsg7Uh_TXidOEjAziT8qDdZz28JZS1XAJHmIoJP84s&m=HATfoFjDRHBHNr-HZrAwLgv6yvvpAcimh68wP1yLd7s&s=el9ymTa4RR6ak_BOVE1RAmjxFqUz_ZN3pphozNElCbE&e=> ________________________________ To unsubscribe from the MoPo-L list, click the following link: https://listserv.american.edu/scripts/wa-american.exe?SUBED1=MoPo-L&A=1<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__eur02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com_-3Furl-3Dhttps-253A-252F-252Flistserv.american.edu-252Fscripts-252Fwa-2Damerican.exe-253FSUBED1-253DMoPo-2DL-2526A-253D1-26data-3D02-257C01-257C-257C1a3806fad9eb481ac4f408d5539fe886-257C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa-257C1-257C0-257C636506868613757069-26sdata-3DGNFqFctwiKnXzk12ip1r8-252B2rPBhj0YCdc07zWtpZWY0-253D-26reserved-3D0&d=DwMFaQ&c=03pYNlCxo1ES3gYVXxnxa61Lf80sedKVS5k9kL9xToA&r=5Zsg7Uh_TXidOEjAziT8qDdZz28JZS1XAJHmIoJP84s&m=HATfoFjDRHBHNr-HZrAwLgv6yvvpAcimh68wP1yLd7s&s=JRYSPsGLZ2QVQvYoM6tgl8P5PHeHPwR6eSlCuYxObUk&e=> ________________________________ To unsubscribe from the MoPo-L list, click the following link: https://listserv.american.edu/scripts/wa-american.exe?SUBED1=MoPo-L&A=1<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__listserv.american.edu_scripts_wa-2Damerican.exe-3FSUBED1-3DMoPo-2DL-26A-3D1&d=DwMFaQ&c=03pYNlCxo1ES3gYVXxnxa61Lf80sedKVS5k9kL9xToA&r=5Zsg7Uh_TXidOEjAziT8qDdZz28JZS1XAJHmIoJP84s&m=HATfoFjDRHBHNr-HZrAwLgv6yvvpAcimh68wP1yLd7s&s=szalcgtEH6gKEbyEwAnf0OIIbv7SkYS9Uvx6eNUKX0I&e=> ________________________________ To unsubscribe from the MoPo-L list, click the following link: https://listserv.american.edu/scripts/wa-american.exe?SUBED1=MoPo-L&A=1<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__listserv.american.edu_scripts_wa-2Damerican.exe-3FSUBED1-3DMoPo-2DL-26A-3D1&d=DwMFaQ&c=03pYNlCxo1ES3gYVXxnxa61Lf80sedKVS5k9kL9xToA&r=5Zsg7Uh_TXidOEjAziT8qDdZz28JZS1XAJHmIoJP84s&m=HATfoFjDRHBHNr-HZrAwLgv6yvvpAcimh68wP1yLd7s&s=szalcgtEH6gKEbyEwAnf0OIIbv7SkYS9Uvx6eNUKX0I&e=> ________________________________ To unsubscribe from the MoPo-L list, click the following link: https://listserv.american.edu/scripts/wa-american.exe?SUBED1=MoPo-L&A=1<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__listserv.american.edu_scripts_wa-2Damerican.exe-3FSUBED1-3DMoPo-2DL-26A-3D1&d=DwMFaQ&c=03pYNlCxo1ES3gYVXxnxa61Lf80sedKVS5k9kL9xToA&r=5Zsg7Uh_TXidOEjAziT8qDdZz28JZS1XAJHmIoJP84s&m=HATfoFjDRHBHNr-HZrAwLgv6yvvpAcimh68wP1yLd7s&s=szalcgtEH6gKEbyEwAnf0OIIbv7SkYS9Uvx6eNUKX0I&e=> ________________________________ To unsubscribe from the MoPo-L list, click the following link: https://listserv.american.edu/scripts/wa-american.exe?SUBED1=MoPo-L&A=1<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__listserv.american.edu_scripts_wa-2Damerican.exe-3FSUBED1-3DMoPo-2DL-26A-3D1&d=DwMFaQ&c=03pYNlCxo1ES3gYVXxnxa61Lf80sedKVS5k9kL9xToA&r=5Zsg7Uh_TXidOEjAziT8qDdZz28JZS1XAJHmIoJP84s&m=HATfoFjDRHBHNr-HZrAwLgv6yvvpAcimh68wP1yLd7s&s=szalcgtEH6gKEbyEwAnf0OIIbv7SkYS9Uvx6eNUKX0I&e=> Visit the MoPo Mailing List Web Site at www.filmfan.com ___________________________________________________________________ How to UNSUBSCRIBE from the MoPo Mailing List Send a message addressed to: [email protected] In the BODY of your message type: SIGNOFF MOPO-L The author of this message is solely responsible for its content.
