[MOPO] Need Help on a Still

2012-06-07 Thread channinglylethomson
Does anyone know what this film is? Since the info is trimmed on the still, all I know is that it was released by Columbia. I think it's from the early 60s, I think the actress is Anita Ekberg (I might be wrong), and the other stills makes it look like a costume drama about renaissance Italy.

Most auction houses will take anything and everything they are offered, if the item(s) in question meets their minimum valuation. That is one of the reasons we see the same items over and over in major auction after major auction (that, and because often the item did not reach a secret reserve,

Seems to me a professional auction company would tell the customer to do a inventory.   Not everyone knows what to do when they are selling something at auction.   It's not an everyday occurrence after all. A little customer service goes a long way. JW From:

In the min-1970's, I was a young, aspiring writer living in L.A., working on a Sci-Fi project with a friend named Tim Bruckner (who is now a well-known sculptor of super hero and fantasy figures). The story was about a dream-eating deity called The Enicol. To make a long story short,

Rick, It is great to hear your story. Ray Bradbury was just the best!!! I met him several times as a kid at birthday parties that Forrest J. Ackerman used to hold at his house on Sherbourne Drive in the West L.A. area in the 60's. He was the nicest of people. No matter who you were, you were

A great story. Harlan had and still has a listed phone number. His response to calls from people he doesn't know -- I've known him since the late '60s -- varies but it's frequently in the direction of what you received. Of course, no one knows what the person they're calling is doing before

a cool story indeed, and sounds about right, knowing the likes of Ray and Harlan! Snapped a couple of pix of Ray at Forry Ackerman's 92nd b-day (I hope these photobucket liks work). Ray was in such kind spirits that day, I got the feeling he was always like that.
