i actually tried to download their catalog a second time.. and the
download failed... downloads usually dont fail, midway thru.
and it was VERY slow, while the first half was chugging its way to my
laptop.

1. i gave up looking at the site because it took forever to load
into my computer. AND I HAVE A FAST COMPUTER.
2. more importantly, i wrote 2 emails to Hollywood Poster asking
why i could not see poster descriptions. Neither were answered.
How can you bid without a description??? Did their on-line sire
contain descriptions? Were you able to really enhance an image?
>>>>>so, although a quick search of the site found 2 posters i
might have bid on.......i never went back.
SO WHY DO AUCTION HOUSES LIKE HERITAGE SEND OUT FREE CATALOGUES?
ANSWER: they are smart! !!!
For example, in the last Signature Auction of Heritage, i made a
quick search on their internet site. Although, i saw beautiful
posters, i believe only one interested me at the time. Yet, after
i received their catalogue, and had time to study it, i tracked
about 12+ posters-----------------------and bought 6 INCLUDING the
one sheet and insert of THE PICTURE OF DORIAN GRAY.
clearly, i was super-pleased with the items i won, and Signature
made more money because of my bidding. SO------THE AUCTION HOUSES
THAT ARE SMART SEND OUT CATALOGUES TO SERIOUS BIDDERS BECAUSE THEY
KNOW YOU GOTTA SPEND MONEY TO MAKE MONEY.
>>>>>if the receiver of a catalogue increases a lot sold by $100,
then the auction house made money to cover the catalogue and
shipping cost. surely, a recipient should be removed from the free
auction catalogue courtesy if they never bid.
and, whenever i write to Heritage, i always get a fast answer. for
example, i asked a question about the one sheet of Dorian Gray, and
received a response from bruce c. within 2 hours of my question.
as i said, i won that item!
