hello Martin
- there seems to be a flurry of recent ewed interest in Hollywood's
early years..Ive noticed a few new books being put out Like Mark viera's
"Forbidden Hollywood- with Turner
I found this on the exhibit and it seems to recall the same formulas...
"What Price Hollywood?" at the MOMA, New York
https://www.moma.org/calendar/exhibitions/5062
I would suggest in conjunction with the MOMa event,You factor ina visit
tothe Cinevent in Columbus on memorial day...the dates co-inside
you can meet many Film movie buffs..
they even show many old films there at the wexner center
actually purchase loads of memorabilia..anda flight coiuld bepiggy
backed in very reasonable onc eyou are in the staes..
another Friend Paul Gielicki at the cine nuseum justup IN Michigan has
restored various silent films of Fatty arbuckle and Mack sennet andjust
announced new Projects with Kevin Brownlow fromtheUK
John Kisch did a wonderful new book a revised "separate cinema" on all
the black movie posters itsa Huge coffee table book,,with Forward by
Henry Louis Keys of the PBS tve show knowing your Roots..and Spike Lee
wrote the afterward..
I suggest if you don't have itt get classic Images as it will network
youwitha whos who of Memorabilia..I saw that they mentioned Louise
Brooks material one of my local friends who writes children Books since
the 60s Janwahl knew Louise and was mentioned in the last book..he had
lettersandall kindsof stuff
I bought a collection of "what ever became" of Books and many dealing
with the passing of old starts.thier graves, and history and old stanby
s like Hollywood
I even have some of the Hollywood cematary's broshures...
Babylon....that cover much of the rumors and old schoolTRivia...Id
loveto offer somepackage deals if you like awesome old material
onwhatever becameof Lamparski series books,,,,I think I have one RKO
book left onthe history of the studio..
I also have movie magazines from all eras from 1913 on up....tell me
your interests...and i'll find something...also.,,,Laura Wagner writes
about all eras is a great resource...she chronical's daily who has
passed..woody wise has somegreat material ontheweb of art .posters
history....
Bruce hershenson always has great paper...
The Cineven May have Morrie there and that's always a great
source.....Plus even REEL art in Chicago is offering a blow out sale of
tonsof old Movie paper...Chicago is just 300 miles from Columbus and13
hours or 500 fromNYC...you can even take trains...
what else??? afteryou see moma..go see the Museum ofthe moving Image
inastoria New York...
so nyc is always fun,then columbus,perhaps chicago...and pick up a
classic images Bob king will send you a FREE sample to wet your appetite
..
and by the way you are crazy but so are the rest of us
You will be welcomed with Open arms at cinevent..
that want to hear about the old days of Hollywood and its pioneers...and
so Cinevent islikea place fortheInsane to gatherandohhoverImages
andpaper history..thisis event 51 year !! so hope that helps...
while in NYC be sure to visit Sam Sarowitz and staff at posteratit...and
the great small shops..and if i know what you like perhaps i can make
you a deal on a lot as the shipping may be cheaper if you buy in usa and
ship a box vs by mail......
by the way,,cool name:}
kindest regards, Tom

Have any early birds seen this exhibition yet? If so, what did you
think of it?
I'm interested because I've got the crazy idea of flying from Zurich
to New York to see it and a couple of other exhibitions.
