It is my suspicion that we will now see changes to HA's weekly movie
poster auction. I would not be surprised to find that they move from a
solely movie offer to all poster genres, and some of the recent
auctions have had a fair quantity of music, advertising and war
posters. Also, given the recent hike of minimum buyers' premium to
$29, HA abhor low value items so I would expect there might now be a
tendency to impose a minimum estimate or reserve ($100+?).
As I said, those are surmises, but I am pretty certain that Grey's
departure heralds some changes.
