This is the first I have heard about the auction in LA. Its a pity that this auction wasn't promoted as well as Heritage and the "sideways" photos don't help. There are some great Hitchcock pieces, although one or two are misrepresented. The daybill for The Lady Vanishes is a 50s release. The original never turns up and is the longer format 14" x 40". There is also a group of one sheets that are clearly Indian reissues.

Mr. Jr,
Thanks for your comments. Well taken and all appreciated. I still think poster prices and values go hand in hand with the economy. Unfortunately, I posted three posts to MOPO before and I will try this time again. I hope it works. In any case, I will run it again next day. Every collector for any items knows that if the economy is down their collecting item prices will do down in prices. There is a cycyle for the economy including hand in hand with the collectors cycle. Economy and commerical real estate is way up since one year, same as in the movie poster collecting field. We are in the movie poster collecting price cycle. Pay low now or higher, prices will go higher, then now when to sell and then in coherence with the stock market with downward cycle of the industry you need to hold on before selling without a loss. NOW, after a long cycyle of poster prcies, people with great posters want to sell, because it is a buyers market. And it is a BUYERS MARKET IN OUR HOBBY. It is very interesting to watch. It does really correlate with the stock market and commercial real estate industry. Anyhow, people that want to sell for a good price, this si a good price to sell. Sell because it is upward trending market trend. Everything above $500 in a collecting field should also be considered as  an investment piece. Most people that love posters also think the same and even they do not think to sell this poster very. I always said that and I sold a hand full and I am still crying because of that. Again, SUPPLY AND DEMAND. I talked about it after September 11 at MOPO and I was right. Who buys??? WHO sells? WHOEVER picked up items for cheap, might be able to sell these items for a great profit NOW. SO, SELL DEALERS SELL. 
Any feedback is appreciated.
