Yes, there was so much linen discussion, I thought I was in the tropics.
Now we can all be over the moon.

Thankfully, a rather good controversy surfaces J.I.T., so the linen 
topic can die of disinterest.

Re: [MOPO] <>NOTORIOUS KEYS

[Todd Feiertag]

Michael,
 
I remember those keys at the auction and I belive at least one of them was 
broken and not complete.  I also remember just two and not four.  I also 
believe that Sam Irvin purchased them.

<>NOTORIOUS KEYSTo: MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU
about 20+ years ago at an auction in New York City (i think in the Puck 
Building), a set of several cardboard keys with colored images on both sides to 
promote hitchock's NOTORIOUS were sold.  they were meant to be hung from the 
ceilings in the theatres .  i think they sold for about 400.00.  (perhaps, 
there were 4with actors pictured.)at the time, i was new at 
collecting   i have thought about them ever since, but have 
never seen them offered, again.anyone familiar with these 
pieces?thanks-michael(i sent this to MOPO last night, but never received 
confirmation  sorry if this is a duplicate posting.  did anyone see it 
last night?)

[MOPO] FA: If Conrad Veidt could see the current prices on his stills, he'd be The Man Who Cries, Not The Man Who Laughs

[Bruce Hershenson]

*We have FIVE incredible first release stills from "The Man Who Laughs", all
with great images of Conrad Veidt in make-up, and, with 21 hours to go, they
are between $13 and $25 each!*

And there are lots and lots of other equally wonderful buys at current
prices, on stills, Australian daybills, German posters, and much much more!
Be sure to check out our *612 THURSDAY ITEMS (*Part IV of our 9th Annual
Halloween Auction includes all items that did not fit in the first three
parts, including 612 Australian daybills, German posters, vintage stills,
some really great promotional items, and more)* *on our website
sometime *BEFORE
* they end *Thursday November 6th, * beginning around 7 PM CST by going to
http://www.emovieposter.com/agallery/14.html

*THIS IS YOUR VERY LAST CHANCE TO TAKE THE EMOVIEPOSTER CHALLENGE!
* In our four auctions running between October 21st and November 6th, we
solely auctioned Halloween-related items of every size and covering all
decades (over 2,800 items in all!). We give a great full-color limited
edition t-shirt to every buyer of at least one item from all four auctions
(but a limit of one shirt no matter how many of the four auctions you
purchase from). Approximately 4,000 of our 30,000 past buyers
*HAVE*purchased from us on our new site, and of course, there are
surely some
other people who would enjoy owning vintage movie posters who have never
purchased from us. Nothing would make us happier than to sell the 2,800
items in our four Halloween auctions to 2,800 * DIFFERENT* buyers, so we
would give away 2,800 bonus t-shirts, at no charge to buyers!
 If YOU have not purchased from us on our new site, we ask you to find
any *ONE* item out of our 2,800 Halloween items, and purchase it (and you
may well get it for just a dollar or two), and you will get that item
*PLUS*the cool t-shirt at no added charge, and you will see just how
much
*MORE* we do for our customers than any other auction site we are aware of,
and you will receive both a cool Halloween item and a great t-shirt for very
little money! Of course, all of our current active 4,000+ customers are
welcome to purchase as well, but we really hope that we can get some of the
people who have either not purchased since we switched to our own site, or
those who have never purchased from us to buy at least one item, just to see
how we have improved our service even more since we "went on our own"!

*THERE ARE LOTS OF GREAT DEALS AND REAL "STEALS" AS OF RIGHT NOW IN THIS
FINAL "PART IV" OF OUR CURRENT HALLOWEEN AUCTIONS!
*Maybe it is because we just sold nearly 2,300 items in the first three
parts of our Halloween auction (for over $215,000), or maybe it is because
of the uncertain economy, but, as of right now, there are *TONS* of great
horror/sci-fi items in our Thursday auctions that are at ridiculously low
prices (and there are some really wonderful items, including many you have
surely never seen before!).
 Remember that all the buyers from **these Thursday auctions get the
great bonus T-shirt with *ANY* purchase, so if you didn't get anything from
the last three sets of auctions, you *REALLY* should make certain to get
something from this set of auctions, to get that item plus the cool T-shirt
that costs *US* $9 to $11 wholesale! There are lots of stills on Thursday
that may well go for a dollar or two each, and those buyers will still get
the T-shirt. *Inconceivable!*

*KNOW THAT WE AUCTION SOLELY ON OUR OWN WEBSITE!
*We auction *SOLELY* from our own website on both *
Tuesday
* and * Thursday * nights!  We
used to auction on other venues, but now that we are completely in control
of how our auctions are run, we can continue to greatly improve our
auctions, and we feel sure you will agree!*  *For the best experience with
our auctions, please use our *
Tuesday
* and * Thursday * galleries
which have the option to view large thumbnails, small thumbnails, or text
only view, and are fully searchable with lots of sort options.

*Register for our Auctions*
*Over 4,117 movie paper collectors have registered to bid in our auctions,
but if you are one of the few collectors who have not yet registered to bid
on our site, go HERE  to
do so.*  You need to register separately for our auctions on our own site,
because the auctions are managed by an auction software company, and you
need to create your own user ID and password (of course, your ID and
password from any other auction site won't work on our site!).  It only
takes a couple of minutes to do, and it is a one time thing, and thousands
of our customers have already done so!

*Your money goes further with us!*
 In these uncertain economic times, doesn't it make sense to spend your
money where it goes the absol

[MOPO] E.T. Bicycle 1sh. "faux controversy."

[David Kusumoto]

There you go again, Lieberman -- trying to get ME -- to slam Rickard's hard 
work.  First you say you got your info from Dan and Bob direct -- now you say 
you got it second hand from a "lively discussion" at another blog/forum.  Which 
is it?  It does matter, blog vs. direct.  You hate being questioned and I'm 
starting to think you got blown up ever since you were featured in eBay's 
magazine.  And I am a good customer of yours!
 
Look, I'm big enough to say I could be wrong about this -- and I received info 
about 10 minutes ago that sheds light about how stuff gets spread around and 
goes from being etched in stone gospel -- to controversial inconclusive -- and 
back again -- ad nauseam.  In sum, I'd like people who really know to come 
forward, none of this guessing stuff or "second- or third-party citations from 
blogs and forums" -- as Lieberman is using.  Otherwise the 27x41 issue will be 
debated forever, potentially hammering the value of the 26 3/4 x 40 1/2s.  The 
LAMP site, w/my permission, posted my views about this poster.  If it needs to 
be corrected, please contact LAMP.  But please don't ask for anonymity, because 
anonymity helps no one in our hobby, is not credible and does zero to preserve 
your investment in a climate whereby "prevailing opinions" (including my own) 
-- are no better then a guess based on what 'other people say.'  Your manners, 
Lieberman, are as bad as mine!

No, I don't think Rickard or Brooks are full of shit.  ESPECIALLY because 
you're only going on vague "memory" of what you say they wrote -- vs. hard 
journaling by yourself.   So now I'm asking you.what were the measurements 
of the E.T. bike poster consigned to you by the woman from ILM?  As you say, 
it's a simple question.  I answered yours, so answer mine.  She came from ILM 
-- so did she foist upon you a "first or second printing?"  You've admitted 
never holding a 27x41, so are we to assume this "ILM woman" consigned a "second 
printing" to you?  And she came from ILM?  Pfft.   If you want to keep 
declaring to your customers that there's a first printing -- even though you've 
never held one -- hence making them you've only got "faux sorry seconds" to 
offer, be my guest.  And stop telling me to calm down.  My wife doesn't put me

the two crazies up in canada DID actually claim they had an original that 
measured a full 27" x 41".I'm not making this up..the evidence 
they provided on the message boards some time ago actually seemed 
plausible...from what I remember, they had an autographed one 27x41 from 
speilberg that actually had a different cropping with slightly more artwork 
(I'm going from memory.so bare with me..this evidence they provided was 
quite some time ago). They seemed like they did their research so I added it to 
my site. Simple.
 
NEVER in person have I seen a full size 27" x 41" one...I took their word 
for it. So now I'm asking you.do you think they are full of shit? Simple 
question..

davidcalm down.
 
the two crazies up in canada DID actually claim they had an original  that 
measured a full 27" x 41".I'm not making this up..the  evidence 
they provided on the message boards some time ago actually  seemed 
plausible...from what I remember, they had an autographed one  27x41 from 
speilberg 
that actually had a different cropping with  slightly more artwork (I'm going 
from memory.so bare with me..this  evidence they provided was quite 
some time ago). They seemed like they did  their research so I added it to my 
site. Simple.
 
NEVER in person have I seen a full size 27" x 41" one...I  took their 
word for it. So now I'm asking you.do you think they are  full of shit? 
Simple question..
 
btwthe few that I've had have always been right around 26  3/4" x 40 1/2" 
give or take an 1/8".

[MOPO] E.T. Bicycle 1sh. "faux controversy."

[David Kusumoto]

** Hey Dave Lieberman of Scottsdale -- on the contrary -- when it comes to Dan 
Rickard and Bob Brooks -- while initially skeptical of their analysis of some 
titles, particularly minty white inserts -- I was turned around 100% after 
their investigation turned up other major discoveries, particularly the Pulp 
Fiction advance.  I don't believe I'm undercutting their knowledge or 
contributions to our hobby -- by raising questions about your website, specific 
to "E.T." only.
 
** Meanwhile, your "bait-and-trap question," "Now I'm wondering.do you 
think those guys are full of shit??" -- is in my view, ridiculous.  It's also 
my view that it's a dumb defense of your representations about this title -- 
because it never answered my original question, e.g., "what were the 
measurements of the E.T. bike poster consigned to you by the woman from ILM?"  
At worst, you're not properly attributing information on your website about 
alleged "first and second printings of the E.T. bike poster" -- or at best, 
you're hoping it won't get noticed by consumers, that your high-profile 
presence on eBay and other intangibles are equivalent to having authoritative 
words stamped in gold.  Even the best dealers and buyers (including myself, 
mostly a buyer) -- have admitted we might be "unsure" or at times even dead 
wrong about what we write or say.
 
** My views are based on what I've actually handled since 1982, measuring tape 
in hand.  The idea of a sanctioned "second printing" of a "studio issue" poster 
never intended for theatrical use -- doesn't make sense.  It further doesn't 
make sense based on what we know of Amblin Entertainment's operations (and 
Amblin personnel will never confirm anything about the design/distribution of 
its marketing materials, in "mock-up internal" or "final external" form).  I'm 
willing to be corrected if anyone has handled a genuine 27 x 41 "first printing

poster NEVER INTENDED to be used theatrically?  The idea of Spielberg handing 
out a batch of "27 x 41 first printings" -- and none leaking out at Comic-con 
in 1982 or elsewhere in the subsequent 30 years -- is astounding to me, a 
certified "E.T." NUT.  What you have on your site right now -- are all ORIGINAL 
FIRST PRINTINGS -- and anything else in a larger size would be immediately 
suspect to me.

Dave -- I just read your note below and visited your website page... 
http://cinemasterpieces.com/cine_E.htm ...and you declaratively state that 27 x 
41 E.T. posters not only exist -- but that they are considered "first 
printings" --
"One printing measures a full 27" x 41" and the other measures 26 3/4" x 40 
1/2".  The full 27" x 41" version is rarer than the 26 3/4" x 40 1/2" version."
Well, this is new information to me after nearly 30 years.  What were the 
measurements of the E.T. bike poster consigned to you -- by the woman you 
mention below -- who said she got it from ILM?  Beyond her statement of 
provenance/origin, upon what are you basing your declaration that there was a 
first printing 27 x 41 that is "rarer" than what you state is a "second 
printing" measuring 26 3/4 x 40 1/2?  This is impossible for me to reconcile -- 
and in my view, further confusing to collectors -- given what I've viewed and 
handled related to E.T. material here in San Diego -- since the film's original 
1982 release.   -kuz.

in the lobby all rolled up ready to take home. and everyone who worked 
there was allowed to take one.
 
It is considered a STUDIO ISSUE...probably the most desirable one there is. 
Not meant for theater display...but still considered an original movie 
poster.
 
The star wars chaykin however is not a studio issueit is commercial.but 
still highly sought after (obviously).

Hi Craig,

Didn't Jeff put that info on the Star Wars Poster of Posters, on the back

the original issue. I have a couple of them somewhere around here, but it

I should know the answer to this -- having been at Lucasfilm when we 
produced them -- but does anyone know how many Star Wars Birthday 
Posters were printed?  In theory, it shouldn't have been that many.  The 
posters were to go only to those theaters that had been running Star 
Wars for the full year.  They got multiples, I would guess, but even so, 
there couldn't have been that many in the US.

So anyone know just how many were printed?  And do you have a

Thanks everyone for expressing their appreciation.  In sum about the E.T.
bike poster -- I think it's best to regard it as a rare specialty item --
similar to the first Star Wars 20x29 promo poster drawn by Howard Chaykin.
The BIG difference is Chaykin's Star Wars poster was a true commercial
poster -- sold openly by the hundreds for under $2 (I believe it had a flat
retail price of $1.75) at Comic-Con here in San Diego in 1976.  The E.T.
bike poster was never to be sold and showed up at Comic-Con in scattered
numbers.  IF a 27x41 or 27x40 bike poster exists, in nearly 30 years, no one
has stepped forward here in CA with one in hand for me to measure and
inspect.  And I think that would've happened long ago.  It would've been
easier to print and cut this poster standard size, but Spielberg has a long
history of advance paranoia about his pictures. None of the original '82
issue lobby cards and posters show E.T.'s face, let alone the bike image.
The bike poster's smaller width and length thwarted standard theater display
frames in 1982 -- so if anyone displayed it, most likely it was in their
homes or offices.  Combine this with what I saw at Comic Con in 1982-1983, I
can't think of too many alternate scenarios that'd make sense to me.  -kuz.

A client of ours who consigned one to us a few years ago got it  while she 
worked at ILM back when it came out. As she came in to work one  day they were 
in the lobby all rolled up ready to take home. and  everyone who worked 
there was allowed to take one.
 
It is  considered a STUDIO ISSUE...probably the most desirable one there 
is.  Not meant for theater display...but still considered an original 
movie  poster.
 
The  star wars chaykin however is not a studio issueit is  
commercial.but still highly sought after (obviously).

Thanks everyone for expressing their appreciation.  In sum about  
the E.T. bike poster -- I think it's best to regard it as a rare  
specialty item -- similar to the first Star Wars 20x29 promo poster  
drawn by Howard Chaykin.  The BIG difference is Chaykin's Star Wars  
poster was a true commercial poster -- sold openly by the hundreds  
for under $2 (I believe it had a flat retail price of $1.75) at  
Comic-Con here in San Diego in 1976.  The E.T. bike poster was  
never to be sold and showed up at Comic-Con in scattered numbers.   
IF a 27x41 or 27x40 bike poster exists, in nearly 30 years, no one  
has stepped forward here in CA with one in hand for me to measure  
and inspect.  And I think that would've happened long ago.  It  
would've been easier to print and cut this poster standard size,  
but Spielberg has a long history of advance paranoia about his  
pictures. None of the original '82 issue lobby cards and posters  
show E.T.'s face, let alone the bike image.  The bike poster's  
smaller width and length thwarted standard theater display frames  
in 1982 -- so if anyone displayed it, most likely it was in their  
homes or offices.  Combine this with what I saw at Comic Con in  
1982-1983, I can't think of too many alternate scenarios that'd  
make sense to me.  -kuz.

You've had it since Sept. 5 and today is Oct 23.  Then you told me you

I hope your work is worth the unprofessionalism.

Hi Dave, 

Sorry that it took a few days to respond to this. We have been swamped. 

We have been extremely pleased with orders from Library of Congress, the
Academy, New York Library of the Performing Arts, 4 European Film
Institutes, and numerous universities, for example. 

 

The book is primarily used to help identify unknown production stills. In
this edition we have approx. 22,000 production codes for the following
studios: 20th Century Fox (including Fox Film), AIP, Columbia, Grand
National, MGM (including Goldwyn, Metro Goldwyn, and MGM specialty.. but not
Metro yet), Monogram, Paramount (back to pre-Paramount in 1912) PRC,
Republic (both types) RKO, Universal and Warner Brothers. We have also
included a brief history of each studio, the process and use of production
stills during production, as well as numeric and alphabetical indexes to
help narrow down which studio it is from.

 

Sue did a screen capture from a couple of the logs. Each log is different
depending on the studio records. Here is the sample: Production

a link on your website and then direct us to it? May help sales!

 

Thanks!

Subject: [MOPO] announcement for those who handle production stills

 

Greetings, 

 

If this is inappropriate or in the wrong place, please let me know. 

 

We wanted to let dealers and collectors who handle stills know that our new
2008 Edition of US Movie Studio Production Codes book with 22,000 production
codes to help identify unknown production stills is NOW AVAILABLE!

 

We spearheaded this research last year as a one time project but we have
received so many great reviews that we have decided to continue to expand
and document production numbers. With so much documentation needed in this
area, and such great response, we are making this into an annual
publication. 

 

For those who have the first edition from last year, in a couple of weeks we
will also have the 2007 supplement available and will be contacting you
individually. 

 

Here
  is the information

Jurassic Park Author Loses Cancer Battle

5 November 2008 10:34 AM, PST


Bestselling Jurassic Park author and filmmaker Michael Crichton has  
lost his battle with cancer in Los Angeles. He was 66.


Crichton, who also wrote sex thriller Disclosure and co-created hit  
TV series ER, was 66.


In a statement, the author's representative says, "While the world  
knew him as a great story teller that challenged our preconceived  
notions about the world around us, and entertained us all while  
doing so, Michael Crichton was a devoted husband, loving father and  
generous friend who inspired each of us to strive to see the  
wonders of our world through new eyes.


"He did this with a wry sense of humour that those who were  
privileged to know him personally will never forget."


A family insider tells website MomLogic.com, "Michael's family  
respectfully asks for privacy during this difficult time."


Crichton was born in Chicago, Illinois but grew up in Roslyn, New  
York, the son of a journalist who encouraged his writing passion.


He quit studying English at Harvard University to travel through  
Europe and then returned to Massachusetts to study medicine at  
Harvard Medical School.


His early novels were written under the pseudonym Jeffery Hudson.

Crichton gave up medicine in the early 1970s and moved to  
California, where he began directing movies based on his books.


His big break came with 1973 cult movie Westworld.

He almost became an actor in the mid-1970s when director Nicolas  
Roeg called on him to play the alien David Bowie eventually  
portrayed in The Man Who Fell to Earth. To date, his only acting  
role came in 1971's The Andromeda Strain, in which he played an  
uncredited surgeon.


The author/director starred in his own real-life drama in 2002 when  
he was tied up and robbed at gunpoint by masked men in his Santa  
Monica, California home.


Married five times, Crichton leaves behind one child, Taylor.

His bestselling novels and hit screenplays also include Twister,  
Congo, The First Great Train Robbery and all the Jurassic Park  
sequels.


As a filmmaker, he directed the movies The 13th Warrior, Physical  
Evidence, Runaway and The First Great Train Robbery, among others.

Re: [MOPO] A Customer From Hell

[Franc]

Why is this nonsense starting again? I don't wish to read any more
private posts in public at MOPO. I haven't been following it enough to
form a judgement but Posterfix sure isn't seeming terribly professional
publishing a client's e-mails and private contact information. Enough
already! FRANC

Hi Chris,
You told me you read your emails every day.  It's been 5 days since I  
wrote and nothing.  You also told me turnaround time was 3-5 wks.   
You've had it since Sept. 5 and today is Oct 23.  Then you told me you  
were backed up without your wife.  So why say 3-5 weeks if you know  
you can't pull it off?

You say you're backed up, yet you want my husband to send you more  
posters.  How does that make sense for us?  However, I see you had  
time to get my check cashed, but not ship the poster which you said  
was done and has been paid for.  So far, Chris, we are not impressed.   
I hope your work is worth the unprofessionalism.

Andrea Kanter

Hi Andrea,
No I didnt say I wanted more posters from you or your husband, i need
just your 
payment. because i dont know you... I always ask
for payment up front from unknown people. BTW I will be at the Poster
Fair this 
weekend working for a major dealer
as her main sales prson. I usually sell 10 posters in a day witrh her
am,ounting to $20,00 in sales. So they really want me. Hope we can touch
base before I ship the poster.

Re: [MOPO] off topic: I'm selling my Nikon N90s

[Bruce Hershenson]

One of the most bizarre marketing moves of all time was the packaging of the
lots in the Gunnar Nelson auction! This remarkable collector had both one
sheets and the full lobby set for many great 1940s titles, and the
powers-that-be at Butterfield's put both one sheets and the full lobby set
for a single title in a single lot, thus forcing poster collectors to bid on
lobby cards and vice versa!

This guaranteed most sold at a wholesale price, and the entire group of
posters and lobby cards sold for far under what they would if they had not
been sold in this idiotic way.

Maybe that has something to do with why Butterfield's got out of the movie
poster biz.

Hi Kirby,
Thanks, but your memory is faulty.  I rescued your camera at that

auction.  You were lucky to have a quiet room in the back.  In mine  
up front, I could
hear everything at the front desk and I had a little TV mounted to  
the top of
the wall like in a jail.  I remember watching the X-Files episode in

I came away with 2 minor lots.  Hope you did better than I did!

And to Michael Wong -- yes, Michael, this is the camera you kept me
from LOSING at the Beverly
Garland.  Thanks again -- it gave me much good use and still works
great.

Hi Kirby,
Thanks, but your memory is faulty.  I rescued your camera at that little 
hotel in Beverly Hills where we stayed for the Gunnar Nelson Butterfield's 
auction.  You were lucky to have a quiet room in the back.  In mine up front, I 
could 
hear everything at the front desk and I had a little TV mounted to the top of 
the wall like in a jail.  I remember watching the X-Files episode in which 
Mulder and Scully search for a lake monster.

I came away with 2 minor lots.  Hope you did better than I did!

Michael, Cinecityposters

And to Michael Wong -- yes, Michael, this is the camera you kept me  
from LOSING at the Beverly
Garland.  Thanks again -- it gave me much good use and still works  
great.
