If you want to take photos of that look dark or browned, or so over-exposed as to be blown out, go right ahead. (this is the comment you made about images being photographed, without relying on photoshopped exposure correction, which was NOT the subject of bruce's original question anyhow. He was asking about image color being boosted or over saturated so as to look more appealing). With all due respect, Francis, go back and re-read the original post.

As the saying goes, a picture is worth a thousand words. And unless a description is written in technical, bullet point fashion, pointing out flaws, dings, rips (as well as it's positive aspects), a photo is 100% crucial. No one would buy an item with only a paragraph of descriptive text included. As far as the comments made about the limitations in photography, you not right here, Franc. Your example of a raw photo looking washed out or totally browned would mean the initial photograph was taken (or lit) incorrectly. A photographer who knows his craft would never turn over an image such as you described, saying that it can be fixed in post. And if they did, it would be the last thing he would shoot, if I had hired him. If a poster has browned due to age or paper acid content, then show it-- dont artificially lighten it or the borders in photoshop. Many (including myself), like to see the age and history of an item 70 or 80 years old. Who wants it to look like it was printed yesterday? And if there was, for example, a light censor stamp, that was difficult to see, of course, that area should be a separate detail photo, tweaked with and adjusted, to best show and see it. That, tho, is not a color boost issue. The question posed was regarding images that have been saturated or color boosted; not how photoshop can best show possible imperfections or details not seen readily. -Kerry On Sat, Mar 3, 2012 at 10:30 AM, Franc fdav...@verizon.net wrote: I think Voltaire figured out a long time ago that nothing's perfect in this best of all possible worlds.

Simply showing a photo without pointing out things that could easily be missed such as a light censor stamp or some light spotting is being somewhat less than forthright. I can totally forgive the photo shop color corrections because in many cases to not photo shop the photo will result in a poster looking totally washed out or (worse yet) totally browned, when in real life it is not.

Re: [MOPO] OT: Poster Appraiser Wanted
hello Ryan Not sure if Heritage offers appraisels however Grey Smith, Rudy Franchi, Walter Rueben, and many on Mopo could do a fine Job Sue Heim and Hollywood Poster frames knows everyone in LA.. and You could contact Joe Madalena at Profiles in History. Bruce Hershenson and Rich could give some sources The facet You have newer titles you may get lucky with a local poster shop as many of the newer titles may not be big priced posters and not worth the cost of a appraisel You could see ebay sales under completed listings or perhaps Om Emovieposter.com or movieposterbid.com would give you a basic Idea. I think Sean Linenbach also offers a price guide. You could also pick up a poster price almanac ffrom John Kisch that althoughmight be off on dates as its out of print could give a ballpark on some titles. all a appraiser does is find Comps from recent sales so its just loads of research which can ad up and not be worth the labor on many newer titles. ebay may be a good source. good luck, tom Original Message From: aday_5...@yahoo.com To: MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU Subject: Re: [MOPO] OT: Poster Appraiser Wanted Date: Fri, 2 Mar 2012 18:39:54 -0800 Howdy Ryan, Welcome to the forum, hopefully, you'll find the info you're searching. ad From: Ryan Behnke ryanabeh...@yahoo.com To: MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU Sent: Friday, March 2, 2012 8:25 PM Subject: [MOPO] OT: Poster Appraiser Wanted Hello.

Our homeowner's policy paid about half the value.

We had really good adjustors and they helped tremendously. Brek, We wish you and your family well in dealing with your loss, Ed and Sue, I still think of you often. Joe, too.

So, we kept everything insured for 30 years without ever making a claim. Then when Hurricane Katrina hit, we thought everything would be fine Unfortunately, we fought for 2 years to get only 40% of the BUILDING damage (with a slight amount for general contents) and they wouldnt even CONSIDER the 1000s of posters that we lost as well.

Re: [MOPO] movie posters lost in fire
Brek - your loss is understood well by those that have lost... and those that havnt well I feel sorrow for them as they dont understand what it does to the soul of a person.. In a way the loss gives a a new perspective to life.. and it can free us of the trappings of stuff... yet to see it leave in a blink of a eye is a eyeopener.. I think it teaches us to be greatful for everything, to not become or assume we know everything, or have a handle on all of life... when I lost my stuff and home and had to start over heres what has helped.. I remembered when I started I had a small cardboard Box of folded one sheets maybe like 25 and a coin changer like paperboys use as a cash register as we forgot to have a budget for Inventory... so no inventory and a wish and a dream and no bank help... So recently I thought hey Im like a Kid again , and starting over and perhaps Now I will have some additional abilities from all my experiences gained by trial and error and hardships. because we can be more selective and focused when we have to adapt... Anyone can do well when all is well.. the test seems to be what do we do when its a calamity and we need to correct mistakes. In business , in Life and in family matters... Some of us do everything without a hitch but most have storys of health, money and family issues and just poor choices... The best I can see is to do best to help all our friends and family and business associates as we are all connected so close in everything really... Thats why its more then self... its US and we are all wanting to be loved and understood and feel we made a difference to someone In the case of MOPO we all share a love of the art and creativity of the Motion picture and thats a really cool medium to share with others..

Re: [MOPO] The Oscars
well put Bruce Original Message From: brucehershen...@gmail.com To: MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU Subject: RE: [MOPO] The Oscars Date: Mon, 27 Feb 2012 06:55:41 -0600 It's the morning after, and overall, I thought it was a real snoozefest, Billy Crystal was entertaining, but *SO *familiar in everything he did and said. And was I the only one who kept wondering if he might have looked and performed better if he hadn't had his very obvious plastic surgery? And isn't it a bad sign when the best segment was the circus art, which has zero to do with movies. It hit me when they did the In Memorium segment, and there were tons of behind the scenes people no one knows, with a few famous faces thrown in. They have successfully turned the Oscars into the Golden Globes, filled with insiders and inside jokes, where they pretty much ignore the viewing public, and give the awards to the movies *THEY *like. the kind that the critics fawn over, but which not many people actually see. Of course, this transformation has been going on for many years, but at least they used to *pretend *to care about the people who make it all possible, those who buy the tickets. And in a day when movies face more and more competition from all sorts of other kinds of entertainment, it may not be just the awards ceremony that sees its number of viewers continuing to fall in coming years. This was once must-viewing for me. and I have watched it every year, but I think I will skip it next year. Bruce -- Bruce Hershenson and the other 24 members of the eMoviePoster.com team P.O.

Best Regards - Original Message - From: Scott Burns To: MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU Sent: Friday, February 24, 2012 10:08 AM Subject: [MOPO] Our 17th Birthday! I can't let the day pass without mentioning another MoPo milestone.. Birthday Number 17! On February 24, 1995 the first MoPo post was distributed via American University's listserv. For a few weeks prior to that date, the original MoPo members simply cc'd their e-mail messages to the other 11 people in the group. In keeping with my annual tradition, I'd like to recognize those 11: Mahtab Moayeri, Michael Danese, Rob Ellis, Donna Tschetter, Goh Kai Shen, Evan Zweifel, George Nichol, Cynthia Nemeth-Johannes, Adam Ehrlich, myself (your humble listowner) and AOL'er Static555-who for the first time I can finally identify as Jeff Static. For years I was unsure of Static555's real name, but by digging through the early MoPo archives I finally stumbled upon his true identity. Michael, Rob and Evan are still members. Thanks to you all for keeping MoPo alive these 17 years even in the face of a lot of competition from those more graphically-enhanced discussion boards. Also a big thanks to American University for the use of their ever-reliable listserv system, a dinosaur that they continue to support. And thanks to the original 11 who got MoPo off to a fine start way back in 1995.

Most of the popular statues such as Laurel and Hardy, W C Fields, the Marx Bros, 3 Stooges, Jack Benny, Durante, Berle, Hope, John Wayneetc. are obtainable around $100 each, with some for less.

I've always wondered about that WWII museum ever since the DVD of Saving Private Ryan came out and enclosed was a brochure seeking donations. The Pooles and Joe B. deserve medals for hanging in with their great city, even though it's hot and muggy nine months out of the year! Thanks for posting, Kirb. Date: Wed, 1 Feb 2012 09:31:24 -0600 From: ki...@movieart.net Subject: NEW ORLEANS To: MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU I'm back in the office now after a recreational week in The Crescent City. Great people, great resilience, great food, great time. I recommend it to anyone seeking a vacation from the routine. CINERAMA is well imitated, if not alive and well, at the World War II Museum. A great deep curved screen, complete with sixties-style automated curtain, is used to present a 45 minute film on the war. It's not actually a film, but a digital hybrid with some live special effects thrown in. But it is certainly successful in reminding the viewer in a very visceral way of the thrill of CINERAMA. Smilebox, eat your heart out! You just can't substitute that big screen -- and this one is very, very big -- and wider, if anything, than CINERAMA. Of course, Steven Spielberg is a big supporter of the museum (Tom Hanks also) and his skill at presentation is all over the museum. We spent about three hours there, including the film, and we could not see it all. And the museum is building three new buildings, one to house a gigantic B-47. Also, I wanted to say that I had the pleasure of having coffee and some King Cake with Ed and Sue Poole at their home - which is, of course, the World Headquarters of Learnaboutmovieposters.com . Their intrepid research goes on and on, and for that we should all be appreciative. Their work is being appreciated now by institutions who are seeing the value in all the research they've done. Finally, I got to meet one of my fave MOPO members, Joe Bonelli. Joe spent Sunday afternoon with us, giving us a great tour of some of the Katrina neighborhoods. We had brunch with him, and were regaled us with some great stories about New Orleans and about the folks in show business he has met and worked with. Joe was both gracious and interesting; and that made for a wonderful Sunday. Anyway, I am back in the office at MovieArt. Best, Kirby Kirby McDaniel MovieArt Original Film Posters P.O.

Re: [MOPO] I just bid on the COOLEST item on eBay!
WO thanks Bruce... so touching to em.. thanks... well I will now tell my last years events for Mopo so you will know my Journey as of late... If You remember MOPO helped me raise money for Diabetes walk and I was off to a good start... what happened was in Feb 2010 I went to a eye doc to get glasses , he said you dont need glasses youneed a retinologist to do lazers yourgoing Blind from the diabetes... well I had no insureance however I was able to get a local city insureance for uninsured.. and received lazer and constant assesment since 2010.. I am legally blind in one eye and in my good eye its like 20/40 So they took away nightime diving.. so then I told the Docs I would pay it forward and started to walk 5 miles a day in a park, became a vegatarian and started to lift weights and all... well in 2009 I thought my foot was infected and went to a clini and they gave me anitbiotic.. But actually it was onset of Charcot foot a rare disese from Diabetes that causes the bones to soften Microfracture and then collapes and make a wound on the bottom called a Ulcer..plus it can lead to amputation... all because I was walking trying to get healthy... well so I went to two doctors who didnt diagnose it,, and I kept walking on my Foot in the park as it swelled up and seemed infected.. so they gave me antibiotics... then Finally they said se a foot doc... Months had past and it just stayed inflamed Finally the foot doc said You have celulitis and put me in Hospintal 2 days on vancomicyn and then oral for liek 2 months.. sjhots and all kinds of stuff,, went to ER like 5 times... then.. I decided to do a cleanse of all the antibiotics.. so In June 29 2011 I took all kinds of herbal stuff and epson salts and stuff to clean me out... well I ended up at the ER from JUne 29 -JULY 9th.. they said I had a Pulmonary embolism and My heart was at 20% and my foot was infected.. so here I was they wanted to do a open heart surgery bypass and I was almost dead..so they did 4 heart stents and then I have ben in bed since July 9th with few exceptions as I still have the wound and im not supposed to walk on the FOOt its been such a spiritual awakening and I woulnt go back for anything as Ive learned so much aboutLove and life and people.. OK so then I tried to get disability and medicaid however I had my saveings so i was considered ineligable... I had jus paid the leyman Brother 9,000 after they rejected my Obama refinance loan as I pay 8.8% on my house... 1,067.00 a month !! and so now I watched my remaiing savings pay for the last 8 months all my expence while I barely made a sale...I grossed 5 k over that time GROSS,,, so then on Dec 30 2011 I get a denial from social security that My insureance ran out March 31 2011...because i didntpay in last few yests because I made no profit after all the expences.. SO using my last funds up.. Ive just thought well Guess i need to work whether I can or not... so this will be a feat... I sold my rusty van for scrape and am selling anything I have off in a last ditch attempt and hoping that my appeal with SSwill happen But not expecting it... I never was on any assistance so this entire ordeal has been humbling.. I hope to pay it forward somehow as Ive seen the plights of homeowners and the sick and ill from a inside view,, However like i said Its been very fufilling in that I finally am waiting for God... as I told a pastor in the hospital... she said you think jesus left you right?? I said Nooo I left Jesus I dont believe in him. well all i can say is Its the most incredible Journey Ive ever had and its like im learning to trust.. I basically said God i surrender as I have no clue how I can get better or get out of this... so far hes seems to be there I just dont get the answers I would like... Like this remeber the woman I chased 12 years well I didnt tell her what was happening all 8 months as I felt like such a loser, I had worked so hard to get a home , car build my finances and body.. yet her I was Broken and sick and broke so i emailed her and Told her about what happend... she emailed and said wow hope ou get better I met a guy in July and Im pregnent,,!!! yep.. in a way God has shown me how we never know what will happen next so I told the woman I suggest she get married and be with the dad as shes having a Boy.. and I think its important that the original Dad be with the son... anyways... so I put my old recor up as I guess i figure the future is uncertain and i thought collectors like that stuff and Im basically going to try to sell off all I can to try to get well and stave off losing my house in addition to all else.. BUT I just wanted my Mopo gang to know... as Its been a long ordeal imagine laying in a bed 8 months.. no park, no flea market,, lots of TV christian shows and news...and facebook...I really appreciate the disabled oh I did get fitted for Bioptics that will aloow me to see distance 20/20 they are telscopes that attache to glasses the

Re: [MOPO] Mail Archive To Be DARK Wednesday!
bravo Scott! Original Message From: s...@columbus.rr.com To: MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU Subject: RE: [MOPO] Mail Archive To Be DARK Wednesday! Date: Tue, 17 Jan 2012 16:11:11 -0500 If you are using our on-line archive service (The Mail Archive) to read MoPo posts, be advised that this web site will be DOWN for 24 hours on Wednesday, January 18, 2012. The Mail Archive is going dark to protest SOPA, the Stop Online Piracy Act that has been proposed in the U.S. House of Representatives and PIPA, the Protect IP Act, pending in the U.S. Senate. Other major on-line sites are also participating, including Wikipedia. Scott MoPo List Owner The statement from the administrators of The Mail Archive follows: The Mail Archive will be participating in SOPA Blackout Day. On January 18th, 2012 we will be dark. The Stop Online Piracy Act H.R.3261 (and PIPA, its sister bill S.968) is a proposed United States law, please read it yourself. The basic goal of the bills is to censor all access to non-US websites involved with copyright violation. We feel there are some fundamental flaws with the proposed legislation. Lawrence Tribe, a Harvard Constitutional Law Professor points out 1) Although SOPA's supporters have described the bill as directed at foreign rogue websites, the definitions in the bill are not in fact limited to foreign sites or to sites engaged in egregious piracy. 2) To compound the problem, SOPA provides that a complaining party can file a notice alleging that it is harmed by the activities occurring on the site or portion thereof. Conceivably, an entire website containing tens of thousands of pages could be targeted if only a single page were accused of infringement. 3) In effect, the bill would impose the very monitoring obligation that existing law (in the form of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998) expressly does not require. SOPA would undo the statutory framework that has created the foundation for many web-based businesses. As a public email archival service, we are very aware and appreciative of America's long history of free speech. We don't usually feel like a cog in a censorship machine. Except for the 153 deletion requests from list administrators, 4 DMCA takedown notices, and 36 suppression actions by global internet search engines in 2011. That's on a corpus of 100+ million messages. Now imagine getting sued or criminally prosecuted for a message that links to some shady portion of the internet? Or when someone forwards a copyrighted article to a mailing list? The Mail Archive has proudly provided archival service for 14 years. But in the end, we are a three person, part-time small business. If SOPA passes, each of us will have to think: We have families. The risk looks enormous.

Unfortunately, there have been a rash of car fires in the Hollywood, West Hollywood, and North Hollywood area. It started on Thursday and with all the explosions and sirens it sounded like we were under attack. Whoever is doing this is also going into the hills and it makes me very nervous. So far it's been mainly cars parked in carports. Jim Morrison's former house in the Hollywood Hills was damaged. Ironically this was after it was on a rental ad. We were out on NYE at our friends' establishment and found out one of their buildings got burned. Thank God no one was hurt but there was outside damage to the building. It's been reported that the person or persons are placing small explosive devices under the cars and remotely setting them off. Needless to say I'm on pins needles because it's been hot and windy here in LA and a fire could spread quickly. Hope everyone is safe. Fingers crossed they get these perps soon.

Re: [MOPO] OT: Movie crowds dip to 16-year low as apathy lingers
I think the exhibitors could fix the problem easy the Movie experience works best by being a social connection of shared community, also is the best place to take a date and then dinner... and also its great to experience a film on a mega Big scrren withe the sound at concert level.. the problem lies in the costs... the Model ofconcessions and al is Old.. and its outdated... In a day where people have dollar store mentality as a reference point, Buying 5.00 Popcorn and 4.00 cokes does not get it especially with a family.. the home theatre makes sense as you can watch several films and have all the popcorn you want...and be comfortable, and no noisy patrons. How I would fix it... Is to offer a special Date price that included popcorn and 2 drinks and I would offer a Movie Club to stimulate multiple Movie watching... also special days for elderly.. like dark days like tues whee they could see a featureand getpopcorn for 5.00 themovie club could be a prepaid card that could be yoked with local restraunts annd such to stimulate sales atother vendors,, I have had this idea for years,, also ther could be free days for non profit groups to uses the theatres to raise funds for events and charitys... the idea is all this would revive the interest in seeing exhibited movies, It would take the help of the studios to offer special incentives on the film bookings... this all could be easy promoted as events on social media,,, 'I would offer passes for special groups at reduced prices. then I would do a local phone and mailer offering all the new deals to stimulate people to return to the theatres.. there still is no better way to see a film they on the BIG screen in imho Original Message From: fly...@pacbell.net To: MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU Subject: Re: [MOPO] OT: Movie crowds dip to 16-year low as apathy lingers Date: Thu, 29 Dec 2011 15:11:29 -0800 I saw the Muppet Movie and Rise of the Planet of the Apes and those were wonderful films.

At first glance, I dismissed as reproduction/reprint/what-have-you. At 2nd/3rd/4th look, I purchased and brought home for some research. The Art of Self Defense, Disney poster starring Goofy Odd size: 11 x 17 ... to be more exact: 10 7/8 x 16 3/4); under 30x magnification, does not appear to be trimmed. Distributed by RKO Radio Pictures Inc. I apologize for not having a pic of the item in this message; however, I did find another example online: 250162.1020.A.jpg If the above link is inoperable, please check the title at from Moviegoods.com. While the example from moviegoods.com is representative, it is not the same: The example that I have: darker blue on Goofy's legs, upper background is more of an orange shade, and the color at bottom edge is light yellow (that is faint in places) If not for the dark blue on the legs, I would state that the poster may be faded (when comparing to the online example). But, the paper ... passes the smell test. passes the feel test. passes the blacklight test. Under 30x magnification, the color printing appears to be micro-lines with in-fill color screen printing. There are no identifying printer's marks, other than RKO(at bottom) and W.D.P. (by Goofy's foot); no marks or writing on reverse, It appears to be a 3-4 color process The blue and yellow colors in the poster has a minimal/moderate reflection in light glare. I have gone back and forth between absolutely certainty of an artificially aged reprint to a cautious optimism of an unknown vintage printing, but I am definitely leaning towards the artificially aged reprint. Ok ... well ... Anyone have insights? Anyone encounter this type of poster? Anyone encounter this poster size? BTW .. If anyone needs any close-up pics, please reply. Thanks in advance for anyone who may provide any info.

miro lines makes me think didgi tal print.. you could get a example at kinkos orperhaps online? the In houseprinting is a wild goose chase as most studios job out to a variety of printers jsust like the movie posterswhere done.. the stome lithohave that signture stone pebbled dotmatrix wich is just thst the slabs where acide etched into the stone so its the natural stone we see.. the reg litho was a screen dot pattern and they call thatlines as fars as the size like a newspaper was like 80- 110 they have improved in recent years. comic books where a 4 color .. and pretty broad dots like I think 80 I use 110 -130 on screen printing and sometimes Ive had to use elipitcal dots the paper should also give you a hint however they did have coaated stock in 30s butmost was flat.. in Maga they had coated. and as for size they had some HUGEmagazines like exhibiotors news. ot film daily had some big ones.. Bruce may be of some help on this. the Disney in house stuff I just have no idea of who printed it but suspect they had outside sources although In early days many also had some inhouse capabilities I would bet. Im leaning its one of the reprints however anything is possible and hope you find the answer soon. the 11 x 17 is so standard in the reprints. like the 20 x 28 in Portal portal btw printed on a heavy flat stock in the start and thats why peopel think they are old and real,, as time went on they went to enamel coated stock like 80 lb or 100 lb weight... like in 80s.. But portal started in the 50s 60s with Bullfight posters and the original owner now makes many of the digital prints sold in Museums and all.

A little bit of add-on ... The 30x magnifier is comparable to a jeweler's loupe, which is why I described micro-lines. I've checked the micrographs of stone litho, photo-gelatin, color offset, ink jet, ... none of them match up with the micro-lines. BTW... there are no folds in the poster, so if this small poster that I have ... was an insert of some type, the publication would need to be at 11 x 17 to fit inside. Also, I forgot to add a description of paper surface ... it is not smooth, paper fibers are present throughout, especially evident to the naked eye at paper tears and poster edges. If Disney had an 'in-house' printing process, are there any other verifiable 'in-house' examples for comparison? ad Visit the MoPo Mailing List Web Site at www.filmfan.com ___ How to UNSUBSCRIBE from the MoPo Mailing List Send a message addressed to: lists...@listserv.american.edu In the BODY of your message type: SIGNOFF MOPO-L The author of this message is solely responsible for its content .

A rare and pristine copy of the first issue of Action Comics, famed for the first appearance of Superman, has set a record Wednesday for the most money paid for a single comic book: $2.16 million. The issue, graded at 9.0, was auctioned starting Nov. 11 online at www.comicconnect.com. The starting bid was just $1 but there was a reserve price of $900,000. Neither the name of the buyer nor seller was disclosed. It's the first time a comic book has broken the $2 million barrier. The issue was published in 1938 and cost just 10 cents. IN PICTURES: Monitor Political Cartoons When we broke the record in 2010 by selling the Action Comics No. 1, graded at 8.5, for $1.5 million, I truly believed that this was a record that would stand for many years to come, said Stephen Fishler, CEO of ComicConnect.com and Metropolis Collectibles. The previous record set in March 2010 was followed by the sale of another copy for $1 million. But neither of those issues was in as good a condition as the issue that sold Wednesday, though it's pedigree of setting records was already documented. Twice before it set the record for the most expensive book ever, selling for $86,000 in 1992 and $150,000 in 1997. But in 2000, it was stolen and thought lost until it was recovered in a storage shed in California in April this year. About 100 copies of Action Comics No. 1 are believed to be in existence, and only a handful of those in good condition. After it was stolen, Fishler said, collectors figured it would never be found or, worse, would be destroyed. Clearly, I was wrong. Not in my wildest imagination could I have predicted that this legendary, stolen Action Comics No. 1 would be found, graded at 9.0 and break the record a year and a half later, he said.

In a few words, next time your negotiating down the price of a 3-Sheet on your Bluetooth, say thank you to Hedley I mean Hedy Lamarr! TOPICS:WHAT TO READ, BOOKS, HEDY LAMARR, RICHARD RHODES, BIOGRAPHY In the summer of 1940, George Antheil, an avant-garde composer trying to make it in Hollywood, was invited to a dinner party at the request of the most beautiful woman in the world. She, a movie star, wanted to talk to him about her breasts: Did he think they could they be made any larger? She sought out this improbable consultation on the authority of several articles Antheil had written for Esquire magazine applying his supposed knowledge of endocrinology to such questions as whether ones wife had been unfaithful and which girls will and which girls wont. Antheil was properly dazzled by the introduction. He later wrote that his eyeballs sizzled upon meeting Hedy Lamarr and that she was even better-looking in real life than on film. The question of the actress breasts seems to have been dropped shortly thereafter, but the two did wind up collaborating on an unlikely project meant to support the Allied war effort: inventing a process by which remote-controlled torpedoes could evade signal-jamming attempts by the enemy. This process, which was patented, is essential to much of the wireless and cellular communications technology we use today. Richard Rhodes new book, Hedys Folly: The Life and Breakthrough Inventions of Hedy Lamarr, the Most Beautiful Woman in the World, is the first book-length attempt to rescue this odd and marvelous story from the dustbin of history. Because the U.S. Navy at first declined to implement their patent and then later revived it under still-undisclosed circumstances apparently without either Lamarr or Antheil knowing about it the pairs contribution has been obscured. Antheil died in 1959, but Lamarr, who lived until 2000, recognized her concept in later technological developments and sometimes pointed it out. Born Hedwig Eva Maria Keisler, to a family of assimilated Jews in Vienna, Lamarr was the adored child of a father who loved to tell her how things worked. She left school at the age of 16 to become an actress. (Her first director decreed her the most beautiful girl in the world, a epithet later picked up by Hollywood publicists.) At 19, she starred in a film Ekstase (Ecstasy) that featured blurry shots of her swimming and running through the woods in the nude, making herself mildly notorious. The same year, fatefully, she married Friedrich Fritz Mandel, a rich, powerful and charismatic arms manufacturer 13 years her senior. Almost immediately, she realized her mistake. Controlling and jealous, Mandel tried to buy and destroy every copy of Ekstase and forbade his trophy wife from any further acting. Lamarr would later recall being watched and guarded and followed night and day. She described her escape from the marriage and, ultimately, to America, as just that, a flight in the dead of night from a beautiful, jeweled case. Before she left, however, Lamarr spent plenty of time soaking up the conversation around her husbands dinner table. His guests were fellow weapons designers and manufacturers with right-wing connections, men who did not realize just how much she understood. Lamarrs famous, caustic advice to women who wanted to be glamorous was to stand still and look stupid, and the same trick surely came in handy when she wanted people to underestimate her. Rhodes characterizes Lamarr as an inventor, rather than an engineer or
Re: [MOPO] Question for Members who sell on EBAY and others who might be interested
GOOD Job Channing! congrats to you. see its not what he did , but what you did that matters as he may be a rip off, or crazy or whatever... But you handled it in a good way. When people duke it out on ebay they end up spending so much time and money and it also can make you stressed, so responding kindly not only shows the customers and ebay that you are trying to negotiate a fair settlement and that's what's important. Also as we have seen on Mopo anyone that is dishonest or does poor business eventually builds a track record and never seems to last.. So if the greek Buyer is not being honest he will lose his ability to bid or more. Why people do this I suspect is because they are angry or have issues with desiring items they can not afford or they feel they can pull of scams. From what I have seen it never seems to last long and they regret it. You did the right thing and can sleep..

Believe me, I reviewed everyone's thoughts and I finally decided to do what he requested.

Well Channing I would forgive him... many deadbeats dont ever reply. if you do cancel transaction you will get fees back . I would wish the person well and perhaps they may buy in future. Ive noticed that buyers everywhere are being compulsive and in Toledo Fights broke out today over deals at walmart... that has to say something about the worlds buyers and stress I think we are living in some very different times and people are notmaking good choices in buying or even selling. There are some ripoffs out there, I uses this as my meter I try to do my best and I figure its not what they do but what I do and if i do whaats honest then they have to to take responsibility. Sure it sux to lose a sale or the hassle But its practice on how to deal with situations as its always best when we can solve things peacefully and with good will. If he is telling the truth , then you may make a persons life so much better. Hope that helps. kinda cosmic it happened at thanks giving...

Re: [MOPO] FW: LAMP newsletter
Ed and Sue ROCK and i just posted them on my facebook page so people can see the great newsletter.. also Krby was fantastic on his Youtube,, love the organization.. man is he organized or what... and has some great stuff... and then I saw Heritages poster video O la la that is great Guys,, back in 1985 we made for our shop the 1st Video catalog of posters.. I took a camera and my ex wife just flipped through posters and said the title and I played sountracks behind it... it was cool as we could dhow color. but VCRs whereostill just coming into bein.. so it was alittle inheard of,,, and we didnt even have the internet ,,, so we offered it by mail. it was shot on VHS I think i may have a copy somewhere.. we also did TV spots locally on Carson and letterman and other showT,, back then I could buy Carson ( Laocal NBC) for 200.00 a 30sec and letterman in 1982 was only 15.00 a spot as he was just starting... we later did a free ticket givaway I had arranged to fly the winners to see a taping of the show,,, and Lettermans secretay said OK tom Ill get the tickets,, but I did it huge and did TV spots , had a limo and even asked Bill wendle to do the voice over well that made producer Jack Rollins (also woody allens manager)go nuts and he phoned me... I guess you cannot give away TV taping Tickets as FCC prohibits it But I had already run the TV spots and contest... well,,, I took the heat for Lettermans secretary and said i did it without knowing... as she didnt know how Big I was going to promote it... true story... and she later had me go to a taping when I was in NYC with my Brother and they gave us VIP treatment and sat us in a roped off area ,, we saw Stray Cats ,, i forget who else was on the show, But Tickets must be given away with no commercial promotion attached..

Re: [MOPO] VERY IMPORTANT FOR SELLERS: Major Change to Paypal Print Shipping Label and EBAY they didn't tell us about
very clearly stated Thanks Channing these fees are getting nuts and policy changes on the banks , credit cards and all.. i just discoverd my bank was billing me 200.00 a year compliance fee... but what was funny they charge me a NON -compliant fee when i didnt take the online test from security matrics.. so i wondered what all the fees where. just to have my own terminal to take credit cards.. they say visa and mastercard are doing it because of fraud. Original Message From: channinglylethom...@att.net To: MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU Subject: RE: [MOPO] VERY IMPORTANT FOR SELLERS: Major Change to Paypal Print Shipping Label and EBAY they didn't tell us about Date: Tue, 15 Nov 2011 11:14:17 -0800 11/15/2011 Hello Mopo Members -- I just wanted to notify you of a major change Paypal has made for shipping EBAY purchases. When you go to print a shipping label on Paypal now, you will be taken to a page that says Paypal Shipping by EBAY or some such thing. Under this new page (which is totally different looking), if you click on Pay for Shipping Charge, your Paypal account will automatically be charged for the postage. In other words, there is no longer a choice to pay for your shipping by a credit card. I usually pay for shipping with an Amex card so I called them. They had to said up a preferred payment method so that if I have a zero balance in my Paypal account, they will charge my Amex card now. Otherwise, this money would have been automatically taken out of my bank checking account. I hope all of this makes sense. I've tried to explain it as clearly as possible. All I can say is be careful when doing labels under this until you get it sorted out. I can't believe they did a major change like this without notifying anyone.

Date: Sat, 5 Nov 2011 15:44:44 -0500 Our 12th Annual Halloween auctions took in $224,869 which far exceeded our expectations. You can still view all of the items in one gallery (until Sunday at 5 PM CST at this link * http://www.emovieposter.com/agallery/results.html*), and after that, you can always view the results at https://www.emovieposter.com/sales/postersales.php by clicking on each set of auctions by date But this is *ONE *major auction that wasn't For Millionaires Only! In lots of high profile auctions, they focus solely on the high dollar items they sold, and they don't mention in any way the hundreds of items that failed to meet their lofty reserve prices (often set at high retail or above). In many of those auctions you either pay high retail or you don't buy (and in many cases, the high bidder is actually the only real person who was bidding). But all of these auctions had *NO *reserves at all, and while every single items sold, many sold for below bargain basement prices! The auctions included 85 items that sold for just *FIVE DOLLARS* (or under), and a staggering 518 items that sold for* FOURTEEN DOLLARS* and under (remember that our leading competitor has *NEVER* auctioned even one item for under $15, thanks to their $14 minimum buyers premiums). There were a total of 902 items that sold for under *TWENTY DOLLARS*(nearly half of the total items!) and *EVERY* one of the more than 500 different buyers receive a great full-color t-shirt (that costs us $9 to $11 at wholesale), even those who just purchased one inexpensive item. And over 130 of those 500 buyers purchased five or more items (and were in this club) and they also receive the many special added bonuses we offered (in all we gave away well over 2,000 bonus items) and the cost to us of all these promotions was well in excess of $10,000, which means we had lots and lots of happy buyers! And we also had lots of happy consignors, because many of the items sold for excellent prices (no doubt helped both by the many bonus offers, and the lack of outrageous buyers premiums!). -- Bruce Hershenson and the other 25 members of the eMoviePoster.com team P.O.

wow Kirby thanks man. well I stay on mopo as even with the skirmishes I learn and the human factor has made the newsgroup my coffee shop of choice to hear about life and the biz.. I think its been a great journey to meet people in person on phone and in emails.. Mopo is like a family of kindred spirits... and the Personalitys make it rich... when i see a great image or see how people conduct biz or grow it thrills me as to think 30 years ago the hobby was quite smaller and no internet and no huge auctions.. To think that many of the folks on Mopo are the founding fathers of the Hobby and where the prospectors that found old theatres and finds is so awesome People like Kisch and Bruce, and on and on Walter , Morrie, the collectors who show such intence passion .. its all so cool... and even the ones that made mistakes like the restoration people and the dealers that did acts of greed all are educational to me.The fellowship is a great gift. so thank you for allowing me to be part of this group.. as its been my safe haven to rant and ask questions all these years. keep up the great job Kirby. thanks MOPO group..

Re: [MOPO] earliest movie memorabilia stores
Hello mopo i was just thinking back who my eaarliest memories of movie memorabilia sources where.. I think Larry Edminds, jerry Ohlinger, starnd Bookstore NYC, Steven Sally, Cinemabilia NYC, veto Stasinatis Chicago,,, Howard Rogofsky, Morrie, Movie Gallery east meadow NY, the earlistpapers where Film Collectors world which became Movie collectors world.. I adverstised my 1st ads in Film Collectors world in like 77 -80 then there was filmfan monthly, starlog, fangoria, famous monsters, cinefex, the poster price almanac.. wow Kisch did a great job on that.. what else... pre-internet,,, was cinevent, phil suelings NYC shows, the comic shows in Chicago and detroit.. Mulqueens shows, and the other chicago shows by Ray Courts. What was yourfirts introduction to memorabilia what year and how did you get turned on to it.. I first was introduced to film about 72-73 by a old newsreel filmmaker name Myron Gittnger who showed me his Newsreels from paramount and movietone and all,, he had a 16mm projector... I then also had a projector and would get free films from the library and watch them... I decorated my booking agency office in a movie memorabilai theme with stills and director chairs, reels and movie posters in 1976... met some movie buffs and got the bug,, my friend made super 8mm films and we shot stills and recorded music so it all was related ..I then started to sell memorabilia from my office and called it Hollywood Dream factory® and started in 1977.. i also sold costiumes and special effects props and makeup, for fimmakers and halloween was a natural.. My friend lee Sanzenbacher brought me in some 1920s photoplay movie mags in like 1976 and sais this should fit your theme of your business so i sold many magazines of movie types.. Lees son is # 18 of he Chicago bears Dane Sanzenbacher which iscool even though im not hip to sports.. anyways i am curious about the old timers and new kids of Mope how they got into collecting and how they found others back before movie memorabila was so accepted. Debbie reynolds and the MGM auction of 1970 was the point where i could see it started bigtime,, before that it was just fans that seemed to save things, and props and all where not saved much. Its intersting where all the stuff has ended up.. would love to hear some storys.

Re: [MOPO] waiting for a public apology from rick ryan? I probably shouldn't hold my breath
Hi Todd - perhaps you are already doing this , howevere what about a behind the scenes video showing the forencics being done on the posters? the video could be posterd on Youtube and learn about posters and your sites and offer a priner on how poster verification is done. Plus it would allow you to explain the process to the novice collector and offer the service.This could be used also to get new clients as a promotional video. best, Tom Original Message From: sp...@earthlink.net To: MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU Subject: Re: [MOPO] waiting for a public apology from rick ryan? I probably shouldn't hold my breath Date: Fri, 28 Oct 2011 02:07:14 -0700 Dale, The forensic lab said this can occasionally happen, the staining process remained neutral and there could be many reasons for this. But one possible reason they gave was that the samples we are using are so small. In this particular sample there was not a change in the acid/alkaline/pH staining so another paper is being retested by the same lab and by a separate forensic lab that we have also employed. We should have answers back any day now. We are trying to be as minimally invasive as possible and the samples we are taking are from the back side layer of the poster and are truly minute. I am NOT charging Dave for this extra service, and as he stated we are both sure this poster is the real deal. I just wanted to have absolute validity as we continue to understand the forensic testing capabilities. On another note, out of the 63 poster we have had forensically tested, this is the first time the test was NOT conclusive in determining the age and they stated it as such which I relayed to Dave. We have a NEW WEBSITE that goes into more detail about the forensic testing. www.mpgrading.com Regards Todd Spoor www.mpgrading.com Sent from my iPad On Oct 27, 2011, at 10:11 PM, Dale Dilts ddilts...@mchsi.com wrote: full disclosurean interesting thing.

Am I the only one that needs a forensic break down of the paper timeline here? It can be determined that a rolled Thing poster from 82' is fake, but you cannot determine that a 69' Italian job is 100% date authentic. I am starting to think the sniff and rub test is better than the wack a piece of paper off and date testing. I am trying to love the paper forensics, but it just is not feeling right yet and there is not enough information out there for the folks that are buying sub thousands of dollars or paper out there and maybe that is the only target audience. -Original Message- From: MoPo List [mailto:mopo-l@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU] On Behalf Of David Lieberman Sent: Thursday, October 27, 2011 6:44 PM To: MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU Subject: [MOPO] waiting for a public apology from rick ryan?

Are they using the same tactics with dealers outside the US, such as yourself? Rick In a message dated 10/28/2011 1:36:40 P.M. Pacific Daylight Time, johnr...@moviemem.com writes: I had an interesting experience over the last few days. When I tried to list some items on ebay with Turbo Lister I got a warning message saying I couldn't list anything until I accepted the terms of the cross border user agreement. There was a link to a page that didn't work. I phoned customer support and asked them what the problem was. They said that a block had been placed on my account and I could not list anything internationally. The rep said she didnt know why this had happened as I was a Power Seller and Top Rated Seller with a perfect record. Blocks are usually only placed on customers who have done something seriously wrong. She said she couldn't find any violations but would raise an appeal. This could take 72 hours to resolve. In the meantime I was left wondering if I had unknowingly committed some sort of violation which would have me blocked from listing internationally. I decided to surf the discussion boards and finally found someone who had a similar experience. Apparently, eBay has decided to force sellers to accept new terms and conditions for selling cross border ie internationally. If you don't accept the new agreement you cannot sell internationally. I finally managed to find the correct link and I agreed to the terms which are quite extreme but the choice is accept the terms or dont sell with us. Having accepted the agreement I can now sell internationally. In the meantime I still havent heard back from Customer Support who had promised to raise an appeal and investigate the matter. The thing about all of this is the incredibly poor level of communication. It is not at all unusual that the reps have no idea of changes in policy so phoning customer support can sometimes just make things worse. Instead of blocking sellers from listing, surely to goodness, an email explaining that the terms and conditions had changed would have been in order. They could then have provided a link in the email so that sellers could peruse the agreement and then accept it. Anyway, maybe this will help someone else who gets a similar warning/block on their selling account.

Re: [MOPO] mopo -Ghostbuster fans take a look at this !
yes its amazeing what people will buy,,, he was contacted by a muscian from Band men in Hats to make a helment. several fmaous movie producers have been buying his stuff... and its true he trys to use as much scrap and found parts as possible and feels bad when he has to go to the store and buy new parts the Ghostbuster backpack will sell for like 300-499 as there seems to be a big interest in the film again.. like the star wars films.. he purposly destress the items as it looks better on screen and in photos .. like the ray Guns many of his pieces have a HR GIGER feel. But remember theStar warsprops were also made from discarded items like the light sabers where made from old graflex flashguns used on cameras.. many props are just common items.. the back to the future fusion machine was a krups coffee machine...lol thanks alot for the view KL !

Re: [MOPO] Susan Olsen - gifted restorer - passes away
ohhh wow... God bless Susan .. i remember her wit and her caustic humor, she was a original. she loved her grandson Vinnie and lived on a mountain in Ca. her emails were always spicy and intense... she seem to love art much and she told me she worked on Frazetta art restorations and much more.. i think she retired,,, sure is short how life is. Funny how we remember people that touch our hearst and souls even when we never meet in person. I still remember her exploding teddy bear bottle as she put it in the microwave , I remember her friend in Boston ( ?) who would post.. on mopo and stared i think styleb site because they wanted to express ideas that where off topic.

Susan Olsen was a very gifted restorer that I know many of you had used for your collections as she would send the posters down to me for framing afterwards. Not sure if anyone else had posted something to the group about this, but I did want to make you aware of it. She use to be a very active participant in our conversations here on the MoPo group back in the day. Quite the fireball, she always had very strong opinions and a quick wit. She made me laugh quite a few times, raucously!! Sad news as she was only 52.

Re: [MOPO] addendum on OT Steve Jobs
Hello Mopoers.. a few things i wanted to talk about... creativity, selling movie stuff Sreve Jobs and My son.. ya see after arguing with my son about buying a organ I relected on all my crazy ideas over last 30 years then I saw some posts about Steve Jobs outlook and he hit it head on... really life is about staying loving to others and thinking like a Kid and being open to new ideas alawys.. becaise when we think its just one way or limited,, we becaome limited. when we get stuck in negativity towards others we have to use that same judgement with ourselves,, saying Its impossible or cannot be done... is like saying we can not ever reach the moon...when Edison suggested he string wire house to house in NYC to electrifie the city they said he was Nuts...the Beatles where rejected by Decca as a common guitar band, and on and on it goes.. many times its the most simple ideas that end up being fads like whamo compays hula hoop.. or slinky that was a defective spring...yet still sells yearslater. Same with movie memorabilia.. when i asked my bank to loan me in 1977 to pen a movie memorabilia store in Toledo Ohio the banker almost fell of his chair and im sure the watercooler jokes where flying.. for years people didnt even know in Town what movie memorabilia was so they thoughti was a porno shop/// well same with my products... when i bought a semi truck load of football shoulder pads in like 82 I saw them as stormtrooper armor and so I bid 2.00 and won for the lot...before i even sold one.. I then called Lucafilm and told them but they had just wrapped up return of the jedi. so i had a semi load of white shoulder pads... well... then someone said call dougwhite makeup effects lab and he bought some to use in the movie metalstorm and a band called thor and then michael jackson for his leg gauntlets... so i had a distributore Phil Morrie of Charlotte and sold 12,000.00 fisrt order.. and then we sold inSTARLOG magazine and Fangoria to society creative enactronismsand sci fi people... all because i was crazy and took a hugh leap of thinking it could happen.. again when i went to the bank and asked could i get financeing for a 50,000.00 order for a movie reel clock for Paramonuts addams family.. they said how will you make 5000 clocks? I said we can do it,, they said NO loan , so we gave paramount a deal.. they buy the parts and pay me if i deliver my profits...they did it and we came in on time... much of lie is overcoming adversity whether your a small time guy like me or bigtime like Jobs its really all the same. some just get larger deals.. some get no deals and yet they may have the richness of having a family and love and friends wheich to me is the treasure we all seek anyway..because if yu have stuff isnt the best part sharing the joy with friendsor others.. I love to see when a person is overjoyed and happy its such a thrill..Or when someone reachs a goal so Today my son called we both opologized about the Organ arguement and i said well you where right Tommy because i never want to stifle you to remain opene mined and creative and being odd thinking is just a sign of original thinking and ability to forcast and do the impossible.. so you where right and im glad you got the organ...I told him he taught me that I needed to stay fresh and open and i learned a good lesson// so when i saw quotes from Job... he almost said the same stuff verbatim.. it was like he inpired so many people to THINK DIFFERENT.. both my son and i are on Imacs so we love apple product. Jobs was only a yearolder then me so it really hit home how short life can be... It also has given me a life to see anything is possible just never give up and love as much as you can, and just as some things can derail dreams well there are also ways to preserve dreams and inspire many.. so my son calls me today.. he sold his 1st television commercial for a local shop I thought wow many people are critical and say it cannot happen but hes learned so much... he will be 25 soon so its been cool watching him grow and learn new things.. he made a movie and like many of the filmmakers he liked liek raimi, jackson, and all those guys that made simple films , he at least finished it and people responded well. and its practice... so now this shop wants to sell the dvd in thier store..I think half the fun in Life is getting to be able to do what you enjoy..doing as a fun thing... so for any of you that have wondered about taking risks , trying something new... do it now as life is short and you wont take you bank account or collection with you... But family and memories and friends are what you think of in good times and bad times. best wishes to all Mopo and hope that helps someone. this economy is really bizzzare but i think people can turn it around with some adjustments in our attitudes and if the banks will give the people a break. best, TomGod bless everyone Visit the MoPo Mailing List Web Site at www.filmfan.com
Re: [MOPO] Do it For Bruce's Kids!!
Bruce, Heritage, Heim, Morrie, Rich , Rix, and a few others all share some good marketing skills.. they all use repetive advertising or frequency .. in advertising there is frequency and reach.. reach is the demographics of the target group.. also there is perceived value, or scarcity perception... then ther is the fear of loss by low cost factors and availibility.. If you look all share that model of commerce as thats what stimulates a sale.. And in some cases they sacrifice some items as it makes the slaes genuine however also fertilizes the overall sale.. whats paramount importance and again all seem to share is CUSTOMER SERVICE,, because without the after the sale service you can ruin the entire transaction.. Many dealers overlook that and just try to WIN by getting the best price for them.. But its investing in the customer that makes sens because you may have a customer for the rest of your life if you just treat them well.. That why packing and after the sale is so important.. the customer is like extended family.. the more you learn about thier lives the more you can help them with thier collections and understand what they like and why.. also one of the best paybacks is you can learn so much from a collector about so many things... I neverheard of many actors until a collector would educate me..I love to hear the storys and also when you can view collections its like a field trip... when i hear of private collections and see mopers share thier hobbies and knowledge thats my reward.. recently some mighty collections like Debbie Reynolds and now the john Wayne collection are up... and even though i cannot afford to be a buyer its just so important in the concervation of screen memorabilia.. and im glad its getting respect. anyways to all the dealers that careabout thier customers and the ones that have been around ive found do.. and also have a great love for what they sell whether posters of books or films..costumes whatever I think the key is friendship with your customers,, I think Larry Edmunds and jerry Ohlinger and many of the longtime dealers know this better then most.. So Bruce and the mopo gang like Kirby and Jim episale, and all you regulars that take care of the customer like family. bravo.

It IS all about family, people, memories. It took a lonng time to do it (11 months!), so many scanned pix, so many new cousins, so many generations AND I still haven't gotten to the part where some of my father's family changed their last names! Sinainski(?) How many ways can you spell that sucker??? And Stanger. Taking a few months off from it, hoping someone in Cali (relatives) will start their own tree and we can link. It has been a labor of love, tears and memories. Really glad we have it now. It's all about my grandson's roots, you know?

Same with movie memorabilia.. when i asked my bank to loan me in 1977 to pen a movie memorabilia store in Toledo Ohio the banker almost fell of his chair and im sure the watercooler jokes where flying.. for years people didnt even know in Town what movie memorabilia was so they thoughti was a porno shop/// well same with my products... when i bought a semi truck load of football shoulder pads in like 82 I saw them as stormtrooper armor and so I bid 2.00 and won for the lot...before i even sold one.. I then called Lucafilm and told them but they had just wrapped up return of the jedi. so i had a semi load of white shoulder pads... well... then someone said call dougwhite makeup effects lab and he bought some to use in the movie metalstorm and a band called thor and then michael jackson for his leg gauntlets... so i had a distributore Phil Morrie of Charlotte and sold 12,000.00 fisrt order.. and then we sold inSTARLOG magazine and Fangoria to society creative enactronismsand sci fi people... all because i was crazy and took a hugh leap of thinking it could happen.. again when i went to the bank and asked could i get financeing for a 50,000.00 order for a movie reel clock for Paramonuts addams family.. they said how will you make 5000 clocks? I said we can do it,, they said NO loan , so we gave paramount a deal.. they buy the parts and pay me if i deliver my profits...they did it and we came in on time... much of lie is overcoming adversity whether your a small time guy like me or bigtime like Jobs its really all the same. some just get larger deals.. some get no deals and yet they may have the richness of having a family and love and friends wheich to me is the treasure we all seek anyway..because if yu have stuff isnt the best part sharing the joy with friendsor others.. I love to see when a person is overjoyed and happy its such a thrill..Or when someone reachs a goal so Today my son called we both opologized about the Organ arguement and i said well you where right Tommy because i never want to stifle you to remain opene mined and creative and being odd thinking is just a sign of original thinking and ability to forcast and do the impossible.. so you where right and im glad you got the organ...I told him he taught me that I needed to stay fresh and open and i learned a good lesson// so when i saw quotes from Job... he almost said the same stuff verbatim.. it was like he inpired so many people to THINK DIFFERENT.. both my son and i are on Imacs so we love apple product.

Re: [MOPO] O/t funny for Horder collectors everywhere
OK so My son has found a niche that hes good at.. hemakes props.. sci fi stuff like ray guns and helments and costume things and peole love his work hes on Ebay if you type prop raygun Martin Martian rayguns.com youll find him.. well hes sold to bigtime movie guys as they seem to like it and he makes them each original from found parts.. just like lucasfilms guys back in the day.. Tommy was raised on shows like Movie magic as a kid so hes really into the behind the scenes... so I decided i would show him all my haunts for special hardware and odd parts...kinda the pass the torch thing well so we wentplaces and it was hard for me to get around so i say I will wait in the car as wewent to a Goodwill shop. so out he comes after like 10 mins and says dad i bought a small Organ for 15.00 he already has like 4 organs but he seems to be fasinated with them i always liked hammond b-3 smyself but not home organd.. with that cheesy sound/ so he says its a toy organ so i think ooh cute he bought a emenne toy kid organ thats nice ... a few minutes later a cart witha FULL size ORGAN rolls outI have a toyoto matrix and this thin would take a truck...soi did the typical parent panic attack of where are you going to put that,,, why did you getanother and man you are nutsand odd and crazy.. then he said well thats like calling the kettle blac, and the fruitdont fall far from the tree.. and wedebated over analog sound vs digital all the way back to his house,, both where fed up and angered... then I thought wow... ive done so many silly things if all he does is buy obeslete organs who knows maybe some day they will be in deman again ,,,or just a joy to play,, this monster organ had pedals and all and a drum machine,,so i realized im becoming the closed mined old man.. It just went against all my recent minimalist thinking.. because of its oddity ... But now i think itwas a cool statement as, he didnt buy it because he thought it would be worth 100s he bought it because he loved the sounds from a organand i repsect that... so our kids can teach us to think like kids again when we made mistakes and where carefree.. If you think that was some fun times. I guess when people collect they get fixated or addicted or emotionally turned on by certain things visual, or audible.. which isnt bad if it can be sustained and doesnt overwhelm them physically.. the keyis balance i guess.. In retrospect i found the entire experience Funny.. the kodak moment was him wheeling out a giant Organ to my Toyota :)) hope all are having a great fall.

Re: [MOPO] O/t funny for Horder collectors everywhere
I think the look of disbelief on my face would have rivaled Jack bennys looks.. and he actually thought we could put it in sideways.. It was a FULL console organ , heavy in wood cabinet with Floorpedals.. I took him home so he could get his Pickup truck.. I was hyperventalating all the way to his house, asking him WHY why why...?How many organs does he need, bla bla bla...Our Kids know all the buttons to push as they know us better then anyone.. But then i remember the day I bought a 24 foot Uhaul truck of movie projects and I got the same look and treatment from My EX-wife :) The son I guess just has a passion for Huge Organs...at least he doesnt collect tractors or bulldozers that would really be a storage issue. :) so I can be gratefull for that..

Addressing Phillips question, I think that reissue posters, if they are good designs - for example, the NORTH BY NORTHWEST reissue - THE HUSTLER reissue - have enjoyed some appreciation. Other reissues, which seemed to have been indifferently designed, like the 1962 MGM reissues (those films were reissued to get some cash flow for MGM which was hemorrhaging funds to Brando's BOUNTY) still have the reissue stigma that the old-hand collectors assigned to them. Here's a kicker: some video release posters are quite good and can generate some interest from time to time. Kirby McDaniel MovieArt Original Film Posters P.O.

It is my opinion, and I don't know how to verify it, that super high end items like King Kong, Frankenstein, and Dracula, not only bring very high prices for original release material, but generate high prices across the whole range of different sizes for most of their re-release posters. Even somewhat lesser titles like Ghost of Frankenstein or AC meet Frankenstein sell well on re-release. On the other hand, and putting aside films where maybe there is one very iconic size and image (say the one sheet for Gilda), it seems to me that re-release material from films where any original paper commands high prices, like Robin Hood, Gone with the Wind, The Wizard of Oz, Flash Gordon or It Happened One Night, seem to drop off much more dramatically from the prices that original release material brings.

Re: [MOPO] OT: Re: [MOPO] To all our east coast friends....from Joe B in NOLA
very odd times right now in all the world eh??? well to Imagine the climate alone .. earthquakes, the heat, hurricanes in regions not normal, floods... the economy.. the politics.. its all overwhelming. In my case I have tryed to seek help from God. I am not sure who it is or whether he exsists but I have just asked that if he does well that he help all mankind and earth.. so far I think its the same God for all mankind , jews , christian, asian, Muslim ,Hindu all are connected to the same God. As long as we simply Love our fellow humans and animals and the earth and God. The lords prayer sums up about all we need to do I believe..and the mayans and revelation do seem accurate so far. I think thats why we are experiencing a Huge change.. and Young people feel it the old gaurd of peopel that ran the banks, corporations and power people are fighting hard to keep old ways, but their system is broken and so is many lives that all can see because of the internet. thanks to gates and Steve Jobs we all are connected by the net and can see and feel others from all over... we all have the same needs, food, healthcare, Love and friendship.. and we all have the same hurts.. love, bad business decions, greed, lost hope... the disasters since the 1st sunami back afew years seem like they have been really building up. the Ice caps melting.. the elnino almost perpetual and between the oil crunch, housing and banking,,, just a ticking time bomb. at the same time I sense hope... because there are many many people that want good things for the earth and mankind.. and they outnumber the ones that take advantage,,, its just like movie posters... there are a few people that abuse customers but 90% are decent and honest and basically remeber thats how every other business and organization is.. there are honest peopel in all sectors and a few that are not so nice... I think we can turn around the world by modifying our attitudes and some simple new fresh approachs to things.. like the banking and healthcare, and home loans JObs are another mess... it appears its the middle class that are suffering from the blue collar sector... as thats where all the jobs where outsourced from... so perhaps with some help in education and loans they could be put back in the system as many seem like very capable workers, just need to be oriented/ in summery if we apply LOve and understanding to all the issues and take out the greed and look at the world as a group of individuals as Family... we are all really one Big family and we need to help everyone. I hope I can somehow be part of the solution... in some small way. Peace and love to all and hope the east coast people have a safe time in the Hurricane. best wishes to everyone in the world.

I can tell you that I never voted for him. I thought we might be rid of him when Sen. Kay B. Hutch decided to run against him. But she ran the worst campaign ever -- no, that would be the lady that ran against Scott Brown. He (Perry) is a certified idiot - not bright - and comparisons to George Bush are specious. [Incidentally, despite the spin that has appeared recently saying the Bushes have no problem with Perry, it is not true. They dislike one another.] They might SOUND somewhat alike, but it ends there. At least GWB was an average student. I am afraid, however, that in this climate - economic and otherwise - that people might go for him. A Perry Presidency would be a terrible mistake for the Republicans. Awesomely terrible in my opinion. It might actually mean curtains for the wobbly GOP. Soon he will start to get a rigorous scrubbing by the media. Let's see how well he fares with that. I'm not a Republican, but George Bush was a pretty good governor for Texas. The governor's office in Texas is not like the Governor's office in most states. Much more power lies with the legislature and the Lieutenant Governor. One of the most powerful men ever in Texas politics was Bob Bullock, a Democrat. One of the reasons that Texans liked GW Bush was that he and Bullock got along and ran the state (Texas was in pretty good shape after Ann Richards' administration tenure) well. Once Karl Rove got hold of GW Bush, he changed. Bush II was the worst Presidency of my lifetime, I would have to venture, and I include Nixon in that. The fact is that Perry is little more than a common opportunist, and I do mean common, and I can GUARANTEE you that he would line his pockets at every opportunity and manufacture opportunities that you or I could never dream up if we had 500 years to do it. Cronyism at its absolute zenith. Meanwhile, under Perry, Texas - TEXAS - who used to pride itself on their public school system has slipped to 51st in public education. And the jobs creator thing - that is a total myth. I have slipped OFF my medication and talked about Politics on Mopo. Bruce, you should be ASHAMED of yourself! K.

Re: [MOPO] Dave Dave Dave
I have tryed to explain years craig as I was a poster hanger in Detroit.. when I would get posters they would ship me from various printres like Gore and Gotham and others. theses where direct from the priniters in the triangle boxes that held 300 in a box and were rolled. these were in 80s. since they were printed litho and at different locations the printing color and depth would vary because in litho prints the operator would set the tones and colors by the side target colorkeys useing typically the panatone matching system that printers used in large web offset litho machines. thats why the colors and posters looked different as several printers where used by the studios to do same poster and so they could vary... its that simple Folks. PLus there where also reproductions made all over the world.and perhaps the printers even in USA printed extra.

[MOPO] mopo - happy fathers day
hey fathers on mopo - happy fathers day.. of all things Ive ever attempted, being a dad has to have been the most rewarding and yet humbling experience in life. My son will be 25 this year and i cannot believe how lucky i have been to have watched him grow from a infant the hour he was born to this point, Its a incredible journey and any father im sure knows what I am talking about.. especially if you have fatherd multiple Kids.. The intersting part is they teach us much about our own lives as they can be our largest critics and at same time our best advocates. So to any of you that have experienced it... Bravo,,, those that have not well remember you were the child to a man who was also lucky to have fathered you. To those of us that never knew our fathers,,, well there are many many father types that can mentor and show you the same Love as they have a desire to be fathers themselves or You can help a Boy that needs a father and inspire someone. so being a father can be shared by many. Happy fathers Day dads everywhere. best, Tom Visit the MoPo Mailing List Web Site at www.filmfan.com ___ How to UNSUBSCRIBE from the MoPo Mailing List Send a message addressed to: lists...@listserv.american.edu In the BODY of your message type: SIGNOFF MOPO-L The author of this message is solely responsible for its content.
Re: [MOPO] 5,658,000.00 !!!!!!
I think its great that Debbie has been rewarded for her passion same when a collector cashs in after years of collecting. its the reward of being a good steward.. sure without the marketing and the venue and all you get less.. and remember she has to probably take many of the costs off the top and the commission.. However that Lady has paid her dues and really tried to save the collection from a auction.. they had tried to get funds to open the Museum in Tennesee and had countless meetings with banks and lenders and all.. the Auction was the last ditch effort as they had debt from the Vegas museum and the banks wanted to call in the note... so I just hope after she covers the debt she still ends up with some cash... then thers Uncle sam.. however Debbies at a age where she probably can get that one time exclusion. Ithink its great,,, she was able to save and preserve soe of themost noted costumes in Movie history.. I think the collection was valued at 50 million... the facilty in Tennesee looked like a Giant paddleboat and was a new Build.. the entire park was to have had a nascarmuseum and other attractions.. But thebanks all bailed out as the economy was so bad... She has stressed over this like a year and she was just so tired to keep going on... None of the studios would help or the big guys,, what I hope could happenn is that the buyers could see the wisdom to still Move on with Debbies Dream and locate the items in a actual museum setting so thepublic can share the splendor of Film hoistory..this way the owner of each peiice could get a rental or stipend or tax write off and have it in a safe climate controlled museum enviroment with a staff of archivists attending.. and it could be a cohesive collection... vs,, breaking it up and storing in boxes all over the world... I hope they chroncal the ownership. I remember when they found Burt Lahrs costiume in a trash heap all disintegrating. If you think its just the Visual and historic representation of the memory and the film or start associated and all these items where from the height of the Movie industry and when they had Movie stars... Debbie Reynolds passion and determination has been unequaled by anyone.. she is truly a role model for anyone who has experienced adversity. I respect her and her son Todd very much. They deserve the best for all there dedication to building that collection.

Re: [MOPO] 5,658,000.00 !!!!!!
they had tried to get funding Rich and it was the state of Tennesse that refused ti issue Bonds for the defered Debt,, the debt was from Vegas..former debt the plan was to role it into the new developers loan with addition funding for the museum... however think back 1 year ago... people were not optimistic about the future and so no one would budge.. those with the money were also reluctant and it seemed almost lackluster interest in the items/// well But now since the major interest and sales.. it has more respect.. I am not sure what went wrong.. Debbie and Todd spoke to everyone.. some heavy hitters, I dont have the debt numbers however I hope they can negociate it down or perhaps the ones that bought this could be serving a two Fold mission to invest in it and gain press and a public curiosity then display it as people are always interested to see things that are expensive and untouchable. its interesting how people think... I had a oscar in full view for a time and most people assumed it was a prop when in fact it was real. also we had a table that arthur Miller gave Marilyn and people would come to the shop to get a Glimpse ... movie stars attract interest.

Re: [MOPO] Fake Free Posterzone posters repros rant
fakes and frauds are rampant in the USA as some people like to pass off anything ,, like old cars or even furniture with replacement parts.. heck there is a entire culture of bootlegs ,, its amaericas way and also now the world way.. as if you make a qulity product the chinese and retails will reverse engineer it then sell it on the market with same trade dress, same packaging and even colors and logos... and asa public we assume it must be same formula...like if we bought a coke that was made by someone else.. So the newest thing is declassification of Goods worth.. I saw Alan Greenspand talk and hes a genius in my book... its all artificial..and the solutions seem to be also. also thers a great youtube video on the college conspiracy... I always wondered... whats the recoup cost time for a student loan...heck some of these working people say they get under watter as they are told they can pull in 400 K and end up doing like 80-100K and have 160 k in loands so they cant pay it back... and as Suzy Ormond points out STUDENT LOANS are not discharable in Bankrupsy court,,, so they get ya at every level.. then ad health care which i can tell ya is out of control.. Kinda makes me see whay the expression Ignorance is Bliss makes sense... I lost all my earthly stuff except a few things and eak out a living very modest.. and I feel so sorry for parents and families that Boughtinto the real estae scam and are now underwater..try to refinance a home with no equity or that has depreciated,, aint gonna happen.. especially iff your self emploed.. and yet the self employed are not to proud to do whatever it takes to keep the lights on..while the poor victims o the corporate banks and all bambozzeled eldery and young startups and middle class and kow want the rich to bail out the whole thing...that stupid... Give free education to all that want to be part offer incentives to schoolkids in te form or cash rewards for skills and credits that will allow them to buy tech supplies.. set of Business the kids can Run as a business so they can develope products, art, moviesand all. the emphasis on sports alone and offering Huge money for basically a athletic performance aside from entertainment and some inspiration to excell does little in the real world job market... If Barrack rewared the school kids to learn and gave them the tools ofeducation instead of resiting useless info that is not used.. we would get somewhere... competeitin is great and if the Kids have to make the projects make a profit and pay bils theywill learn more then theaory and protocol. they will learn How to Fish.. the education system needs a overall... its just Big business..and the teachers maoral is down...and the peopel that graduate end up as min wage because the platform has not been seeded for the risk takers and businessmen that build companys. rebate them offer paid Jobs for the Kids to help.. and also employ the elderly... raise the cap on disability... they will typically pay 600-100 a month and you cant work... why not allow people help if they are disabled and allow them to stay independent.. many want to work just to help thier self worth and dignity... it can all be fixed if we think positive and help the people of the world, the ecology and the basictennets that all want,,,a comforable life, some food, some entertainment, a family and the ability to dream and create and feel like your partof something Good that will matter and leave behind a future for our friends and familys,, regards TOM Original Message From: mro...@earthlink.net To: MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU Subject: Re: [MOPO] Fake Free Posterzone Date: Sat, 18 Jun 2011 19:40:23 -0700 Hi Richard, I hope that you are well.

I am so happy for Debbie Reynolds .. she and Todd put so much love and time into that collection and had years of non support from the studios. so at least they will get some peace and get some respect for the collection. Iam so happy for them .. I think that they hadsome good press and the timing good. What was the estimate for that Dress Freeman??? I would like to see a catalog..I know it broke herheart to have to sell the collection.. they had a Museum allset to open in Tennesee that was awesome but the faucet went dry... and no banks would help on it Original Message From: flixs...@aol.com To: MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU Subject: RE: [MOPO] 5,658,000.00 !!
