[MOPO] FA: eMoviePoster.com has 1,257 oversized stills, magazines, books, program books, and comic books closing on Sunday

*eMoviePoster.com has 1,257 oversized stills, magazines, books, program
books, and comic books closing on Sunday (two days from now!) at
http://www.emovieposter.com/agallery/15.html
!*

What is in this set of auctions? This auction mostly solely includes
several types of items that we rarely auction (some incredibly rarely), but
which mostly DO fit in our standard size mailers or boxes.

*These include FOUR HUNDRED THIRTY ONE books (every imaginable kind!), FOUR
HUNDRED SIX magazines (again, an amazing selection, movie and non-movie),
ONE HUNDRED THIRTY EIGHT oversized stills (many 11" x 14", many deluxe, and
many by "name" photographers), ONE HUNDRED TWENTY SEVEN comic books, ONE
HUNDRED SIXTEEN souvenir program books, and 11 campaign books (entire books
and loose pages) and 13 exhibitor magazines!*

These seven types of collectibles include a LOT of very unusual items, some
of which you might never see again, and there is a real chance you might
"miss" ones you might be interested in, so you really want to take some
extra time looking them all over, to keep that from happening, because if
you miss bidding, you might not see them again for many YEARS, if ever!

*Please know that (as you know if you follow our auctions!) vintage 8" x
10" stills are HIGHLY collectible, and nice ones often auction in the
hundreds of dollars each! However, vintage 11" x 14" stills (which are far
more rare, and often on better paper, and sometimes embossed by top
photographers!) often sell at a lower price range than 8" x 10" stills,
which makes NO sense at all! I think this is solely because there are
currently fewer 11" x 14" still collectors, but that is sure to change over
time!*

And know that because we are falsely sometimes identified as being solely
an auctioneer of "movie posters", there may be the chance for unbelievable
buys on the comic books, monster magazines and pulp magazines, and so much
more that is included in these auctions. There is also a great collection
of SEVENTY NINE sexploitation paperbacks , mostly from the repressed 1950s
and 1960s, 17 "men's magazines", and SO much more!).

*If you just like making incredible deals on unusual and rarely seen items
of EVERY kind (whether to add to your collection, or as a dealer to
re-sell), then THIS really is the set of auctions for you. Maybe it is
because many of our bidders are not familiar with these exact types of
items, but with just two days to go, 407 of these items are at just $1 and
707 (well over half!) are at just $1 to $5.*

Now lots of these are sure to get some or several bids, but many won't (and
every item will REALLY sell, because these are true no reserve auctions,
with NONE of the dreadful "buyers premiums", $19 minimum or otherwise) and
if great buys are going to be made, I hope they go to people who will
treasure what they won!

*If you have not yet registered, go to
https://auctions.emovieposter.com/Registration.taf
 to sign up (we qualify
our bidders, something few auctions do, which means you will always be
bidding against real bidders who honor their bids).*

And if YOU are somehow not interested in any of these items, but have
friends who would be (because they collect items like these or would find
just one of interest) then do us (and them!) a favor by helping spread the
word to them before these close!

please have a Wonderfull weekend God bless

First
I am one of the few people on this list to have met and spenta few
precious minutes with our friend Tom Martin.
He is indeed one of those rare people whose heart and soul radiate
from his eyes and his smile is devoid of artifice.
Tom, when I met him at a gig I was playing near his home, was just
happy to be here and now, in the moment. His recent tales of health
challenges are heartbreaking but his spirit remains mighty. We are
lucky to have him in our MOPO group, where some of us get a little
testy at times (although we haven't had a good flame war in some
time...)
So, here you go Tom;
When I was 12 years old, I had a short collaboration with the Brunas
brothers making a fanzine. I sent them a copy of "Thing", my stapled
together, hand made ode to FMOF. They sent me "Terror Monsters", a
harbinger of great books to come. They were impressed with my graphics
but felt that I was making too many jokes (a complaint echoed by my
wife of 25 years. "How can a man who plays such beautiful music tell
such horrible jokes?"
We somehow collaborated but it was toough: I was in California, they
lived in New York. They DID turn me on to Bruco Enterprises,a place
that sold movie posters. My first poster was "Macabre", the cool one
sheet with the death's head terrorizing some generic hotties. On the
back was the address of theater Poster Exchange in Memphis. Their
prices were much more reasonable: 75¢ for a one sheet, $2.50 a set of
lobby cards.
I went insane. I mowed lawns for anyone who had a quarter, I had
advances on my 50¢ a week allowance that are probably still
outstanding (I'm 71). I had stuff from "Godzilla"; 1sheets, 3 sheets,
lobby set; "Creature from the Black Lagoon" lobby sey & insertI
was beginning to fill up a foot locker.
I somehow started corresponding with Malcolm Willits, who had a small
poster store in Hollywood. My dad drove us to Southern California to
visit my wacky great-aunt. I stopped by Willits' store and got a bunch
of lobbies from "A  Meet Frankenstein" and a gorgeous one sheet from
"The Devil Commands for a whopping five bucks. I staggered over to the
Cherokee bookstore where they let me loose in the upstairs safe. They
had PILES of mint AIP posters. I overspent while my dad tried to talk
me into collecting something more sensible like...stamps.
I saved my foot locker for years. I went through a really bad
financial patch in my mid-thirties after being introduced to hard
drugs. I sold everything but that Karloff posterand that went for
$100 in the mid-Eighties.
I moved to San Diego, hated everything about it until I fell in love
with the woman who saved my life. We're still together and we have
poster rules. The stone lithos go upstairs in our huge living room
(except for "House on Haunted Hill", which...oddly enough...she fell
in love with and helped me buy.
I'm back in the hobby with both feet. I've met some amazing people,
done business with many of them, and I'm presently preparing a book
for my son so that, when I pass on, he'll know what my stuff is worth
and where to go to sell it.
I just got him a one sheet from something called "Deathgasm" for his
birthday. (Heavy metal meets pentagrams made of human intestines.)
Hey, he just turned 40 today and he inherited his old man's exquisite
taste.
A BIG shout out to the late Chuck Vergara, who sold me much of his
collection for far less than it was worth. It turned out he had cancer
and wanted the posters to go to someone who would appreciate them. One
of the most generous guys i ever met, a beautiful person.
Gotta go; dinner calls.
Love to you all, and I love these kinds of threads.

Hi Tom -

 Always love your stories and your big heart - eyeballs and ears are
important - but your big heart is what makes you the angel that you
are.

 So here are some stories for you.

 My father was my greatest mentor.
 He loved movies and bragged that he used to go see 5 movies a day
during the depression when he was supposed to be looking for work.

 When I was 8 the family was riding from NC to Baltimore to visit my
grandmother. It was an 8 hour ride. We got 30 minutes out of town and
were going through
 Greensboro and Godzilla has just opened. I cried so hard to see that
movie my mother and father pulled over and waited in the car while I
went in and watched it. Came out, got in the car and we continued our
all night drive to Baltimore.

 When I started to show interest in movie posters he'd take me to
different theaters and appraise my technique for asking the managers
for them. Studied the grip
