[MOPO] calling Freeman Fisher, calling Freeman Fisher...

2006-10-11 Thread Phil Edwards Cinema Arts



Apologies to the list for using this a means of 
contacting Freeman, but after a fascinating tete-a-tete today, I see that AOL 
has bounced seven emails from us down here, trying to continue on where we left 
off.

Freeman, can you have a look at the AOL engine room 
and see what's changed?

Very frustrating.

Thanks, 

End of public transmission.

[MOPO] Bill At Granada Posters Wins The Prize

2006-10-11 Thread Flixspix



Mopo'ers

I could not let this go without praise. I just received 
a rolled poster from Bill at Granada Posters in Texas. I have never 
received a poster packed to arrive as safely EVER as this one 
was. He took a square carton measuring 6" X 6" x 42" and 
inside box he had 4 evenly cut strips of styrofoam 1" thick by 
4" wide by 32" long. Those kind of locked in place 
creating a cushioned square cartoninside the double-ply cardboard 
carton.

Then asturdy 3" round tube, a quality I wish 
most peoplewould use as standard, was wrapped smoothlyat least 
three times around the entire length of the tube which thenslid snugly 
within the styrofoam walls allowing5" of bubble on each end of 
carton

You would have thought I purchased a rolled Real Art 
FRANKENSTEIN but no, a 30 x 40 GODFATHER and the trouble 
taken so the thick stock paper wouldn't ding or crimp in transit. 


Thanks Bill you raised the bar.

Great, stuff, Walter. I especially enjoyed looking at the Ninotchka lobby cards, which are scarce in any condition, esp. the title and portrait scene cards. Billy Wilder's screenplay makes this the most entertaining Garbo film of all time. Her other films might be overrated, but not Ninotchka She had such a incredibly short sound film career...

[MOPO] When to break a set?

2006-10-11 Thread Alan Adler

Mopos -

Is there any conventional wisdom on when to break up a lobby set for 
sale?


To my thinking the cards should be worth $50 or more each and you 
SHOULD  have less than a full set to break down any further.


BUT -

Are there those of you who would break a full set of 8 down - and under 
what circumstances?
Are some titles, genres or periods of sets more prone to better numbers 
if broken down?


Any thoughts or experiences out there anyone would care to share?

Alan Adler

Thanks for the great notes, Freeman!

Alan,
Your question should bring in all kinds of opinion I would think.  It 
becomes an argument of dollars versus collector's philosophy in most 
cases.

 
It also becomes a question of desirable cards in a given set.  Best 
example  I can think of  in not breaking a set is Lawrence of Arabia.  
A full set consistently well command 800 - 1000  dollars.  If you 
break up set,  the title card will get $400  the portrait card of 
O'toole  maybe $200   and good luck getting sold the rest at any 
price.

 
Heritage has demonstrated time and again breaking up sets generates 
far more dollars than a complete set.  So has Bruce. Take a full set 
of Invasion of the Saucermen.  So many of the cards will achieve  $400 
individually.   But to generate $3000  for a full set is not 
impossible it just seriously limits the chances.  So many go the route 
of least resistance and higher dollars.

 
But take a film, I will use one I experienced recently, Hondo.  
Building a full set where all the cards were pristine took me a total 
of acquiring 14 Hondo cards to create the best possible set of 8.  I 
was able to sell the other cards, some I had minor pin holes filled as 
long as image of Wayne a winner.  Those cards sold  but multiplying by 
8 it would have been just short of what I ultimately sold the full set 
for.  But this set building took over a year, I felt some premium in 
order for the effort made.   This enterprise worked out just okay. 

 
But presently I have 7 stone mint scene cards of YOU WERE NEVER 
LOVLIER.  I am missing the title card.   I have passed on several 
because they would not match the quality of the other cards.   But I 
have asked myself would paying a premium for a mint title card 
completing my set enhance the demand for such a set or would I be 
better to break up set given the fact that one of the cards,  Rita and 
Fred leaping,  sells alone for over a 1000.00.  We are still in limbo 
over this scenario.

 
A set I built which took over three years was acquiring a full set of 
all 8 deluxe lobby cards for the '39 JESSE JAMES.  I can't recall 
paying more than $175  for any card but I sold the set  listing on 
Ebay for just over  $1600.00.  I thought it would have done better.

 
So Alan  when you say break up the set with each card more than 
$50.. I  think you have to assess the overall take   on a set.  
Some may sell for over $150  but others will end up generating no 
sale.   Its a law of averages.
