One thing I can say about Morrie is that he’s the real McCoy.
A collector’s collector and a great guy.
Whatever millions come to him, good for him.
I hope he has a great time spending the money

Mopos and Morrie-ites


Have a fun story that I always remember whenever Morrie’s name is mentioned.


About 25 years ago, my wife and I were traveling blue highways from west coast 
to the east coast for 6 weeks with about 15K in posters in the old SUV -
We stopped at every junk shop we saw and traded posters for toys, just before 
toys took off.
(I figured if movie posters were art - then toys were sculpture - and I 
couldn’t get enough.)


Had never met Morrie but called him and we arranged to meet at a Holiday Inn or 
something in Cleveland or Columbus - 
But the fun thing was we took over a banquet room and each took tables to lay 
out hundreds of posters.
Imagine a 2 man movie poster convention.


He was keen for a bunch of my not so valuable but tough to find titles from the 
1950’s to fill in blanks in his holdings
And I went for anything that looked cool -
My favorite was the kicker in the deal - a Belgian Flash Gordon on linen he 
gave me - still a cherished piece.
