Hi PJ and MoPoers
 
I thought Rich did a great job promoting the special event and he deserves to succeed with the excellent project that JR pioneered. I had some good sales including:
 
Dead Reckoning US half sheet - a steal at $400.00
Nightmare Alley - a beautiful hand litho one sheet at only $212.00
Thomas Crown Affair - fantastic one sheet - $200.00
Incredible Shrinking Man - a bargain at $200.00
 
I also picked up an excellent lobby card for Jamaica Inn from Abe. I think that Rich should continue with these special event auctions. You never know, if he continues to build the site he may end up getting bought out by eBay and make a squillion!
 
Regards
John

EXCELLENT Q, Toochis.
 
Why do all I hear is crickets? If only we could get half the replies to your questions that Mel Talk generated today.
 
Rich, I hope, will come in with the final figures, but it looks like 30K total, or so. Wow. That's a bunch. Abe, John Reid, and Rich all three carried the thing, but I jumped on board and ended up selling a few items, too. Thanks to the three of them for allowing me to "crash" the event. They could of raised a stink, I guess, had they felt "threatened". (LOL! Threatened by ME! Har! That will be the day...)
 
Too bad many of the reserves were not realized. Lessons learned, perhaps, for the next event auction? Keep the reserves (if you're gonna have them) reasonable. I don't suggest giving posters away, but $65 for a Sarong Girl should had been enough, I would think.
 
I won a couple of things, too: Murder Is My Business LCS and the OS to DULCY with Ann Sothern (love her).
 
Anyone else score something on MPB? How about you Toochis?

I think we were better off when we were commenting on all those fabulous six sheets that Kirby McDaniel has for George Arliss remakes before this detour into non-movie poster territory.
