Yes Helmut, (not sure my post appeared as written, 1st and last lines should be crossed out, mac thing probably), I keep watching them.

Don't know how many there are, perhaps more than the 75 hypothetical Casablanca inserts. Far more limited, (though strong) appeal than Casablanca as reflected in reflected in value when rare :
Before flood value around £2-3K
Now, around £200-300?

They've been coming to market for, I think, five years now, 75 Casablanca in a year would totally kill it I'd have thought.

hypothetical:

a man buys a house, and finds 75 Very Good Condition inserts of Casablanca. YES, all originals. he, realizes their value, and does the following:

1. consigns 15 to heritage. heritage immediately lists 2 in its Signature auction, and 2 more in the Signature auction for the following Signature auction (six months later). the other 11 heritage lists every three weeks in its Sunday night auctions after the first Signature auction.

2. consigns 10 to emovieposter. bruce starts listing them immediately over a six month period.

3. consigns 5 to various ebay consignment shops, who list over the next 45 days ON EBAY WITH NO RESERVES, STARTING AT $500. they all sell.

4. consigns 5 to various poster dealers he found on MOPO, who list them on ebay, all with MAKE BEST OFFER OPTIONS. they all sell.

5. he sends 2 each to christies, sothebys, profiles in history, bonhams for immediate auction sales.

6. now he has 32 left..................so he 22 lists them himself on ebay after the consignment shop auctions are over for 22 weeks. start price, 500, no reserve, they all sell.

7.  he keeps 10.

WHAT IS THE VALUE OF CASABLANCA INSERT IN ONE YEAR?
