very cool..toochis wold likeit i bet...years ago both portal and also
personalitie andthe german co postr art publications dod posters with
collages..andi carried them,,the otherdywhy rootingaround i ounda
originalportal header display fora posterdump i thought maybe i should
make copies frpeopleto se what titles weremade..they was aslos celestial

whoi thinkk sold out to Movie Galleryineast
meadow,0martylifshultz...also MPR inytc fishmsn..andthe contless euro
dealers andprinters..initaly,, canada,France, netherlands,
Germany.belgium, japan andotherplaces..therwas a slew fthem...wheni am
asked whybeside origiinals i sell reprinds alongside...i tell this
story...wheni started i thought movie were about sharing..i never liekd
snobbish collectors or dealers,,that made itexclusive or were a "closed
club" onlythein crowd could get in.....also demographics,,wheni started
in1977 inToledo I had done mail order 1st andhad die hard collectors
thatwanted eclectic stuff like herb Bridges who was a authouand
collectorofGWTW..howeverythe r was notenoughtlocalas thatwanted
600.0posters so i offred the portals and stills and buttons, postcards
you name it i had about 200posterondisplay inracks andononesheet
boards..the average was under 2.00 i alsocarried music,theater,
andpopculture posters ofthe time..likedargi,funky,scorpio,manymany
makers actually therwas morelike5000 poster on display..plus comic
,books, i had a full room ofback issues likelife and more and
evensomegirlies..andthenhardware likeprojectors,models japam animonster
stuff..props,sweaords costumes. specialeffects, and vintage cinemanand
pre cinema...so iwas over100 years of movie all ina small shop..plus i
had warehouse andas you know later i had 100,00 video movie posters
andthenalso myproducts,tshirts..andfullsize props andtoys...iveposted
somepics on myfaceook but there is so much history we did inthe42
years...ive started toforget some...but theidea was i liked it
beingavailible toall ages andincomes bec i was broughtup verypoor and
didnt havethe money to buy collector stuff,,i remeber the 1.98 fora
autoa model was out of reach..c somehow i gota few and a few comics but
notliketheotherkids...my 1st guitar was 29.00 butmy loveofart,music and
mi\vies and show biz grew..andthat why wheni opend the retail shop upI
wantedto include everyone not just theprudish ones..as moies aare a
shared event justas music....the beatles didnsay ok only 100k andover
sit here..although lennononce quipped ok those with the jewely just
jangle your diamonds....LOL:)I was looking at a stack ofold premires
magazine from the 80s...i could not throw them out so i saved the unsold
copies..I advertised in Premire in the back,,,,the mags are beautiful
but we had to cut them as the ad off as proof they wher unsold and get
credit,,they even had like baseball card movie posters in
them...verycool pics...and size ofa life mag,,I figure i can sell them
on ebay as SCRaPBOOK material for movie collectors..as its fun to just
enjoy movies as a group share to me...heck ifi had so much money ther
are onlya few i like and a reprint is fine..like its a wonderful
life....i also like the serious collectors who are archivist as they
save Hollywoods History so i get it and its all cool...just dont like to
leave anyone out...
whats funny is i have many things i bought back inthe 70s
still....anduncover them in storage many were my personal collection of
memories ofstuff and some was stuff i stoced up on as speculation and
some i jus never got around to selling..LOL:) 42 years later,,its time
to get in gear,,
