what I really like is that Claude uses the
"Louvre style" of display - don't waste any wall space when you have
so much beauty to exhibit

Nice ... real nice.
Also ... It's always good to be able 'to put a face on' a person.

Usually these word might be prefaced by "I died and went to...but
it's alive, it's moving, it's alive, it's alive, in the name god now
I know what it feels like to be god...oops! there I go digressing
again..no it's dead (BK RIP) but I am alive and had the great
pleasure to visit Claude Litton at his home in New Jersey. While I
knew Claude had a large poster collection, never in my most vivid
imagination was I prepared for what I saw and I would say without
hesitation if you haven't seen it you ain't seen nothing yet and it
ain't just posters, promotional and prop items and vintage
mechanical arcade games as well as a variety of statuettes of movie
stars. Dr. Volin should be all over it. I was there to pick up a
few frames Claude was selling but came away feeling it would have
been worth the two hour trip from long island just to see the
collection or should I say part of it. It's one thing to see these
posters in catalogues it's another to see them framed on the wall,
and were talking a lot of walls. Unfortunately time was limited and
Claude was having work done in the house but he gave me a quick tour
including a look at his most prized poster the only known copy of a
one sheet for Charley Chan The Black Camel. As many of you may know,
Claude is a huge Chan poster collector. My son was with me and
snapped a couple of pictures(me on the right Claude on the left) It
really was heaven..in NJ? go figure...click links for pictures..best Alan
