A Mopo Exclusive
( and any others forwarded this email)
CHARLIE CHAN posters are like Chinese Food.
After purchasing one you're hungry for another in a mere few hours
............it's true, I read it in an article in Learn About
Movie Posters.
Well then obviously a solution would be to serve up a
veritable banquet of one sheets. Offering a total of 9
Charlie Chan Posters
three starring Sidney Toler and all six of
Roland Winters'. The onsheets were all in very fine condition prior to
their expert linen backing to address any touch ups to fold lines and optimize
their appeal when displaying.
I am preferring to sell these in one lot. Prior to this
offer I had enlisted MOPO's resident Chan expert, the oft
imitated but never equaled, Claude Litton, to impart his opinion on the
collection. Obviously Warner Oland Chan's are the most
in demand. Well okay that's a given. But he did mention that the
collection did include posters with several featuring images of black
co-star Mantan Moreland that can significantly increase their demand.
In particular he singled out the onesheet for Black Magic which accounts on its
own for just less than a third of the asking price for the entire
collection, a price he felt was exactly right. Also
with regards to the last two Winters' Chans, Key Luke returned to play
number one son a role he originated from the Oland Chans........but
in life, Luke playing Winters' son was actually older. That
may actually trump Ava Gardner playing Loren Green's daughter
in EARTHQUAKE.........but I digress.
ALL NINE ONESHEETS ............. $3500
Shipping is $40 within the Continental US and
abroad is close to $100.
The posters each have their own individual link
below
SIDNEY TOLER AS CHAN
BLACK MAGIC (1944) - Sidney Toler, Mantan
Moreland retitled MEETING AT MIDNIGHT which remains to date for why I can
only guess due to Orson Welles' film of the same title.
THE TRAP (1946) - Sidney Toler, Mantan
Moreland
DANGEROUS MONEY (1946) Sidney Toler
ROLAND WINTERS AS CHAN
THE CHINESE RING (1947) Winters, Moreland
DOCKS OF NEW ORLEANS (1948) Winters, Moreland
THE SHANGHAI CHEST (1948) Winters,
Moreland
THE GOLDEN EYE (1948) Winters, Moreland
THE FEATHERED SERPENT (1948) Winters, Moreland, Key
Luke
.
THE SKY DRAGON (1949) Winters, Moreland, Key
Luke
LET ME KNOW IF INTERESTED. FOR DEALERS THIS IS A RARE
OPPORTUNITY TO STOCK INVENTORY OF A SCARCE FILM GENRE WHOSE APPEAL IS
INCREASING WITH COLLECTORS TO BE SURE. BUT ALSO HIPSTER ASIAN AMERICANS
WHO APPRECIATE THE FOOTNOTE AND CONTRADICTIONS IN AMERICAN CULTURE THESE FILM'S
REPRESENT.
