Re: [MOPO] Prepping for the Reaper

Greg - I guess it's a sign of the times. I just had this same type of conversation with my niece the other day. I told her I feel like everything in my apartment would have value to someone and it would be up to her and her brother to decide if they want to take the time to reap the rewards.

Re: [MOPO] Prepping for the Reaper

I had the same conversation with my wife a few years back with similar results. Although my collection is nowhere near what the majority of MOPO guys and girls have I’ve spent the two years painstakingly putting together a spreadsheet, taking pictures, and cataloguing everything I have so when

[MOPO] Prepping for the Reaper

Beloved Fellow Geeks: I was sorting through my modest pile of movie paper the other night and I realized I had acquired some pretty cool stuff. I realized that if I were to suddenly shuffle off this mortal coil that no one would know where and how to properly dispose of my stuff. My son has zero

Re: [MOPO] Has anyone ever wonder this...?

On a sad note, long time collector Jeff Gordon died a couple of weeks ago. He was a fixture at NYC shows and Movie Collectors World advertiser under the name Jagarts. To have reffered to Jeff as entusiastic would be an understatement. He was a terrific guy and one of a kind. -Original

Re: [MOPO] Has anyone ever wonder this...?

I also tend to remember reading a lot of stuff and interviews with American original, filmmaker Kenneth Anger and he always talks about his vast collection of Golden era Hollywood stuff. I think his grandmother was involved in costumes or something in very early cinema and since he is in his

I spoke to Lou, not so long ago.  He sometimes bids on some on my items on Ebay.  He's still buying, and he sounded great on the phone. Franc Martarella -Original Message- From: jburtis To: MoPo-L Sent: Tue, Apr 14, 2020 12:02 pm Subject: Re: [MOPO] Has anyone ever wonder this...?

You are surely right, Joe. More amazing, he is active on Facebook too. What a guy! And Lou is one of those rare dealers I NEVER hear the slightest negative about, kind of a miracle in this hobby. Although come to think of it, I have also NEVER heard a negative word about Joe Burtis, either!

Re: [MOPO] Has anyone ever wonder this...?

That's kind of ironic. I have a close relative who had a scheduled necessary surgery, only to have it cancelled the day before the surgery because they had a shortage of masks and other stuff (it had been taken from the surgery center by the hospitals). And that was in the U.S. Maybe if he lived

Can I just add to that my 92 year old mother fell and broke her hip 2 weeks ago but was immediately admitted to hospital and had an operation. Even though the NHS is dealing with the coronavirus pandemic it is still treating those in need. Thank heavens for the NHS. Tommy On Tue, 14 Apr 2020 at

Since we're clearing "going there", my 86 year-old mother had cancer of the uterine lining in 2018 and her consultation through surgery period was around ten days, tops, maybe less. And she's doing wonderfully and I take her to her quarterly check-ups which cost an average of CDN $12 for
