and in the process - absent the routine they had for decades in the office - 
they unconsciously self-isolate.  Retirement is not ideal for everyone. -d.

absolutely refused, stating things like‚ having better things to do than look

Frankly, I can‘t see Bruce going into retirement. All the work aside, our job 
is simply TOO MUCH FUN to ever give it up.

Needless to say, I am totally stressed out most of the time, but I still keep 
finding AMAZING posters I have never seen before. (A number of them will be 
published in my next update this month.) This alone makes up for a lot of the 
daily aggravation. And of course  the money is pretty good as well.
A good portion of my sales (and my profits) comes from low-end items, but 
looking forward, I would certainly like to downsize that part of my inventory 
step by step. On the other hand, the percentage on the low-end material is so 
much higher, of course...

Re: [MOPO] Bruce's auction - (typos corrected; it's 341am Pacific Time out here).

[Moviemem Original Movie Posters]

Bruce
My guess is that it would be very hard to find the right person. You have done 
an incredible job in building the business over the years. Raising the minimum 
value might help but estimating the value is subjective as reflected in some of 
the price fluctuations that have been achieved. There are often surprises with 
some posters making way more than anyone would have thought.

You have been selling a lot of bulk lots in recent times but it must surely be 
a lot of work and time to photograph and list a load of one sheets or lobby 
cards. Whereas, photographing and listing a $20.00 poster would be minimal in 
terms of time spent. Just wondering whether it might be worth reducing the bulk 
lots rather than raising the minimum value.

Anyway, I hope you continue running the business for many years to come in 
whatever form you choose.

Regards

John

Good question! If the right person came along, I would take them in as a 
partner tomorrow. I know that after a transition period of a few years, the 
business would be fine with that "right person" taking over for me.

But IS there that right person? That is hard to say. I long thought Phil Wages 
was headed in that direction, but he had his own dream (running a brewery) and 
now he has fulfilled that dream!

As I have said before, my kids are not interested; Maybe someday, but who knows?

These days, my thinking has moved in another direction. Why not slow down, 
rather than stop?

My only gripe about the business is that it takes up too much of my time AND I 
spend far too much of that time auctioning low value items that are readily 
available elsewhere, or are rare items no one is looking for.

I see myself as being able to "kill both birds with one stone" by continuing to 
up the quality of what I auction. Currently I insist on $20+ items for single 
auctions. What if I slowly raise that to $30., then $40 and then $50?

Yes, I will surely auction fewer items, but that would free a lot of my time. 
Maybe I would have two auctions every four weeks instead of three. Or maybe I 
would go back to limiting each auction to 999 items.

Even if I ultimately ran ONE auction every four weeks. surely that would be 
better than NO eMoviePoster.com!

Thoughts (from John. or anyone else, other than the haters)?

Re: [MOPO] Bruce's auction

[Greg Douglass]

 


Yes, it was a great auction. I had my eye on a gorgeous stone litho from CABARET (the 1927 version). I set a price ceiling on it but it got plowed through during one of those five minute hand-wringing sessions.. After some choice language, I took a peek over to (gasp!) Ebay. While I will never, ever sell on that pit of greed again, one CAN find bargains. I found a GODZILLA one sheet for $1500, bit my tongue, called my restorer, and crossed another piece off my bucket list. 

Generally, though, I spend my bucks with Bruce.

I drooled over Anna Mae Wong too. Gorgeous. As collectors age, I think we're going to see more high-end gems come up at auction. My son wouldn't have a clue as to what to do with my collectionactually, he will, because I've got the cream of the crop listed and Bruce's number on the list. But it's like, "Dad,couldn't you have collected baseball cards?"

Re: [MOPO] Bruce's Auction Results

[Alan Heimann]

I really wonder how much of a bargain these posters are...certainly from
the point of view  of obtaining a poster you want, often linenbacked, no
buyers premium and no shipping charges?..makes bruce's auctions
very attractive   ..for posters like cat people..perhaps this copy had
more
restoration than would attract a $1 price or perhaps at this time of
year people need money for other gifts...but  i think we get lulled to
easily
into thinking that because some of these titles like cat people or
forbidden planet or breakfast at tiffanys have achieved very high prices
at
certain auctions that this will be the norm..I think some of these
bargain
prices are realistic of what these posters are worth...i guess the litmus
test might be put the poster on ebay a few months from now and set the
opening bid at the bargain price...and see what happens ...Holiday
greetings to all. Alan

[MOPO] Bruce's auction results

[Richard Halegua Comic Art]

well Bruce's day one is over  I have to say, that there were lots of
surprises  some incredible bargains.

one bargain I was lucky to win was the Orphee french 1 panel.. This
is one of my top ten films and I always watch it with a new
girlfriend . I was shocked that I was able to achieve this poster for
a paltry $515 !! This poster sold for over $2000 at Christies 10
years ago  is fairly rare.. I was willing to pay much more for it 
was lucky to score a Some Like it Hot 1 sh for the bargain price of
$716 with the extra cash I didnt spend on Orphee

there was of course a wonderful supply of Universal horror and I was
almost shocked that Cat People sold for a mere $.00 which is a
sharp contrast to the $8000-12000 achieved in other houses like
Heritage in the past year. I was also shocked that Forbidden Planet
sold for a paltry $5866.99 .. hey Lieberman, were you on that??? What
about the Pulp Fiction advance for $390  or the Forbidden Planet
wc for $797..

I'm only looking at the results now, but I can tell that I wish I had
$20-30k to spend.. I coulda had some real fun.

[MOPO] Bruce's auction - discounts

[Henry Mazel]

The one sheet of Iron Duke (1934) starring George Arliss went for $192 in Bruce's auction. I have a mint half sheet of the same title, a much more pleasing poster. It is stone cold mint, never folded and a sight to behold.

PLUS - I even have a better title of Arliss -CARDINAL RICHELEAU also 1934. Also mint, never folded, and a wonder to behold. Crisp, clean, as though it was just off the press (both half sheets).

$425.00 for the pair. JPGs are available, Some wiggle room if you have something I might be interested in. You really might one to look at the JPGs on these. The HS are sensational.

[MOPO] Bruce's auction and Belgians

[Henry Mazel]

Kudos to Bruce. I emailed him yesterday regarding the dating of some of his Belgians, particularly Double Indemnity. Allied films were not screened in occupied Belgium, so the 1944 date was inaccurate, although it is the first Belgian release.

To his credit, Bruce wrote back and indicated he's added a footnote to the Auction regarding the date issue. That's a touch of class.
