I expect I will either be living in the Actor's Home... or back east taking a dirt nap. I wonder if I'll ever get all those Wheeler and Woolsey lobby cards I'm missing? Stay tuned! It's been a great experience being part of MOPO! Thanks again!

This site has been a real treasure over the years. Even as more of a lurker than a poster, I have learned so much from everyone. The discussions are always informative and interesting, and the generosity of the folks on this List continues to amaze me. Best of luck to you, and here's to another 25 years (and may we all be there to celebrate THAT milestone)!

MoPo really started in 1994 when a small group of movie memorabilia collectors found each other on Usenet (you youngsters may have to Google that) and began CC’ing each other on e-mails discussing the hobby. It was a primitive mailing list, but it worked. Then in early 1995 as our distribution list grew, American University student Adam Ehrlich discovered his school allowed students to set-up a listserv discussion group—for free–and MoPo was officially launched. It’s interesting that once a list begins, as long as it stays active and has a listowner (that would be ME!) AU just lets it chug along even after a student graduates. Even more amazing is that AU still maintains their listserv system at all. But a big thank you is in order to American U for giving MoPo a home for all these years. As is my annual tradition, I salute the original 11 who were here 25 years ago today: Mahtab Moayeri, Michael Danese, Rob Ellis, Donna Tschetter, Goh Kai Shen, Evan Zweifel, George Nichol, Jeff Static (using AOL name Static555), Cindy Nemeth-Johannes (sadly we lost Cindy in 2008, but her husband Jay is still a MoPo member), myself, and of course, (former) AU student Adam Ehrlich. I’m happy to report that in addition to Jay, Michael, Rob and Evan are still with us 25 years later! It seems unreal that 25 years have passed since MoPo began…time does really fly if you’ll pardon the cliché. I was an avid collector back at the beginning, but as the years have passed (along with my hair line), I find myself content with my collection as it is and have begun thinking about what I’m going to do with all these beautiful images that are now living in storage boxes. But every day I do enjoy looking at my favorites that have been carefully framed and hang on the walls and they will probably be the last to go should I ever decide to liquidate. (I have a feeling I’ll be liquidated before those cherished gems are!) My thanks to all MoPo’ers, past and present, for a wonderful 25 years. Happy Silver Anniversary MoPo!
