I think there may have been some confusion when the 'bricks and mortar' gallery closed. The poster business remains very much ALIVE outside that venue though. I know there are plenty of dealers on group here who have had shops and galleries close over the last 10 years or more, but still remain VERY much part of the hobby. Let's face it, having a physical shop is TOUGH and these days, only a small few seem to be able to do it. Ed - have e-mailed you off group! Shelly

Part of it was an assumption on my part that he had closed the shop, when I was told that he sold his posters out. Shelly, please tell Nick hi, for me. I haven’t heard from him in a while. Did Nick close the café or is it still open? I had also heard that it was closed a while back. As for Adrian, we didn’t get a chance to see him this year at Cinevent due to family illness. I received an email from him a few months ago using that email address, so again I assume that his email is still the same. Thanks for the update ed From: MoPo List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Shelly Whitworth-KingSent: Sunday, July 06, 2008 11:23 AMTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Re: [MOPO] London Movie Poster Shops QUestion Hi Ed and everyone wall2wallmovies is not 'gone' as you say and certainly hasn't sold up to anyone else. A sale was made consisting of a large number of posters to an individual some time ago, but the business was not sold to that person. Nick Berg, my partner, is still alive and well and selling as wall2wallmovies! In fact, he sells on eBay most weeks and also, sells large numbers of material privately. Hope that clears up any misinformation that seems to be doing the rounds!

Here is the LAMP map to England for our LAMP Dealers.. http://www.learnaboutmovieposters.com/newsite/INDEX/COUNTRIES/UK/UKMap.asp Besides them, I believe that you still have Tony at Reel Poster Gallery, At the Movies, Greg Edwards out in Kent. Wall to Wall that Tom mentioned is gone. They are the ones who bought out our shop here in New Orleans. They sold to a newcomer.. Adams…(something) which is trying to open up. I believe Mpag is still there. Adrian doesn’t have a place anymore.. He still works for Bonhams… you have to contact him by email.. [EMAIL PROTECTED] I hope this helps, ed From: MoPo List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tom KirbySent: Sunday, July 06, 2008 4:43 AMTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Re: [MOPO] London Movie Poster Shops QUestion This shop has now closed I believe. Concur with the sentiment about pricing - I have lived in London all my life yet have never bought a poster from a shop here. Mind you, London is one of the most expensive cities in the world so the overheads of running a gallery must be tremendous.TomFranc wrote: I used to buy from the Witch's Ball near Covent Garden at St. Martin's Lane but I think I used to buy mostly French opera and art deco posters. Sometimes they'd have the odd movie poster. Buying posters in London is an expensive proposition, especially with the current exchange rate.
