I’ve never owned one, but have the fabulous US OS on ebay right now, at an incredibly reasonable price.
It’s item number 331748348383, but in the interest of safety, please don’t everyone try to click buy it now at the same time. I’ve seen that kind of frenzy knock a person’s index finger right out of the socket.

As any item found in AR and similar shows whether a cuckoo clock, furniture or a poster is about insurance value I’m not too bothered about the valuations. Nice enthusing item I think. Very curious whether there has indeed never been a sale of the WotW quad.

Have no idea where he got that figure. I know many of the appraisers, dealers themselves of course, have a very high-end clientele who probably pay ridiculous sums for things (and thus many of the valuations tend to be at Saudi oil sheik levels) but even so I thought that one was over the top. _____ From: MoPo List [ <mailto:mopo-l@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU> mailto:mopo-l@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU] On Behalf Of martin last Sent: January-06-16 2:02 PM To: <mailto:MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU> MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU Subject: [MOPO] UK Antiques Roadshow: Strange valuations Check out this link for an AR piece on British Quads - broadcast last week: <http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p03cvthv> http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p03cvthv It was good to see a long feature (maybe too long) on movie posters but I was not totally convinced at the info given on the Lawrence of Arabia re-release (value) and the War of the Worlds poster (i.e. the fact that no quad exists and that if it did it would fetch £100,000 upwards). The LoA estimate of £5,000 is surely out given that Heritage have sold two for less than $1,000 (inc. BP). Pre-awards would be a different story. As regards the WotW. I could have sworn that I have seen one in a catalogue, on a website or on TV. In fact, I have a feeling that I actually saw one on the UK AR many years back. It was in a large collection of 50s/60s quads. I cannot find any reference to it now but I also cannot believe that a 1950s quad for a not-so-fantastic movie could fetch £100,000+. Any thoughts? Anyone remember that UK AR show? The guy had a mouth-watering collection. _____ To unsubscribe from the MoPo-L list, click the following link: <https://listserv.american.edu/scripts/wa-american.exe?SUBED1=MoPo-L&A=1> https://listserv.american.edu/scripts/wa-american.exe?SUBED1=MoPo-L&A=1 _____ To unsubscribe from the MoPo-L list, click the following link: <https://listserv.american.edu/scripts/wa-american.exe?SUBED1=MoPo-L&A=1> https://listserv.american.edu/scripts/wa-american.exe?SUBED1=MoPo-L&A=1 _____ To unsubscribe from the MoPo-L list, click the following link: https://listserv.american.edu/scripts/wa-american.exe?SUBED1=MoPo-L <https://listserv.american.edu/scripts/wa-american.exe?SUBED1=MoPo-L&A=1> &A=1 -- <http://www.greshamsseasonalservices.com> Gresham's Seasonal Services, Inc. <http://i114.photobucket.com/albums/n257/skycandle/gsslogoplatesnow_zps14705d30.jpg> President | Owner - Macomb County O: 586-677-SNOW | F: 586-677-5669 _____ To unsubscribe from the MoPo-L list, click the following link: https://listserv.american.edu/scripts/wa-american.exe?SUBED1=MoPo-L <https://listserv.american.edu/scripts/wa-american.exe?SUBED1=MoPo-L&A=1> &A=1 Visit the MoPo Mailing List Web Site at www.filmfan.com ___________________________________________________________________ How to UNSUBSCRIBE from the MoPo Mailing List Send a message addressed to: lists...@listserv.american.edu In the BODY of your message type: SIGNOFF MOPO-L The author of this message is solely responsible for its content.
