Re: [MOPO] Our 19th Birthday: Not Dead Yet!
Congrats Mopo! Looking forward to more.

Is MoPo an Internet dinosaur and no longer necessary? Questions to ponder…but first, as I always do every February 24th, a brief review of MoPo history… On February 24, 1995 the first official MoPo post was distributed via American University’s listserv. For a few weeks prior to that launch date, the handful of original MoPo members simply cc’d their e-mail messages to the other people in the group (there were 11 at the beginning). In keeping with my annual tradition, I’d like to recognize those MoPo pioneers: Mahtab Moayeri, Michael Danese, Rob Ellis, Donna Tschetter, Goh Kai Shen, Evan Zweifel, George Nichol, Cindy Nemeth-Johannes, Adam Ehrlich, myself (your humble listowner) and AOL’er Static555—real name Jeff Static. Michael, Rob and Evan are still members. Cindy sadly passed away in June 2008, but her husband Jay has taken her place on MoPo. Hats off to all the MoPo originals! I’d also like to send out my annual thank you to American University, our generous host. I’m surprised, but grateful, they continue to maintain their listserv system, a relic from the early days of the Internet. Yes, it has limitations (no fancy graphics, mail delivery issues) but it still serves our intimate group well. Happy 19th Birthday MoPo! But will we make it to 20? Should we?

But like many I would also enjoy seeing your collection, s I would also recommend: 1.Join Photobucket - it's a free service for hosting images. If you can attach find a file on your computer you can add images to Photobucket. Photobucket also gives you the ability to easily post any images you have almost anywhere on the internet with 2 clicks (yes that simple). 2.Join for free here: https://secure.photobucket.com/register 3.Join AllPosterForum (http://www.allposterforum.com/) - it has a wide and active membership, best of all some people don't argue! 4.Re Point #3 (above), please add the word 'much' to the end of that sentence and before the exclamation mark, thanks... Just remember like most social gatherings, and as I have said before Trying to understand the behaviour of some people is like trying to smell the colour 9. 5.Once 'inside' there are lots of 'threads' you can join/keep a watch on and add comments and images too - despite the fact I am one who enjoys the beautiful women movie posters ('40s-'60s - not so much the horror ones) there is something for everyone in there: http://www.allposterforum.com/index.php/board,57.0.html 5.You can even start your own thread about your own collection and share your images and thoughts on it here: http://www.allposterforum.com/index.php/board,4.0.html I can assure you, your posts and collection will be well appreciated by the majority 6.Do join send an email to apfholi...@gmail.com he will add you as a member and then it is relatively simple from there on. However, if that seems too much then I am more than happy to step you through anything technical, I have a few clues on these things and because I am not a geek by trade (and a little older than many of those geeks too) I can talk in a language that you will understand, I will type slowly too so you don't get left behind, most importantly what I don't know I will completely make it up as I go along and with such skill and professionalism you will be none the wiser... All that said, I am more than happy to help out where/if I can and if asked...no strings, well maybe buy me a beer or a glass of NZ Sauvignon Blanc next time you're passing - I am in Sydney, suggest you don't drive. regards David Rew cary black did previously state on 25/02/2014 12:42 PM: I have mostly been lurking on the Mopo site.

Re: [MOPO] Mopo Statistics
Rich, since you're asking: Over that one week I counted 19 posts from Bruce, 13 from you, followed by 6 from Heritage. The rest split up between roughly a dozen other sellers, most of them with one or two posts. Helmut it was busy week for me as my auctions were ending, but Bruce will be pretty static.. how many posts was he? At 03:29 AM 2/24/2014, you wrote: Just for the 'fun' of it, I did a brief analysis of the Mopo posts over the week, here's what came out: Total number of Auction and For Sale related announcements: 62 Posts (84%) Want-to-buy requests from dealers: 3 Posts (4%) All other messages: 9 Posts (12%) Of course, this was only one week, but my guess is, if you do this any other week, the result will be pretty much the same.

Re: [MOPO] Our 19th Birthday: Not Dead Yet!
Congratulations Scott and, as ever, keep up the good work. I haven't really been too active in the forum or the hobby lately, but I do still tune in and love to keep even a lurking connection with all the fine people I've had the pleasure of meeting through MOPO over the years, not the least of whom is the gent onto whose post I tacked this greeting. Hope to be a little more active in the near future.

Michael, Rob and Evan are still members. Cindy sadly passed away in June 2008, but her husband Jay has taken her place on MoPo. Hats off to all the MoPo originals!

I’m surprised, but grateful, they continue to maintain their listserv system, a relic from the early days of the Internet.

Re: [MOPO] FA: STEAL THESE POSTERS: 850 rolled non-U.S. close TODAY and over half are still $1 to $5!
Bidding has picked up on the highest priced items, but there are still bargains galore on the lower priced stuff. Amazingly, there are still a third of the posters at $5 or under with minutes to go! And there are lots more woefully underpriced items at every price level, so why not take a last look at *http://www.emovieposter.com/agallery/sort/4/13.html http://www.emovieposter.com/agallery/sort/4/13.html* and see just how many great bargains there are there?

First I would like to thank all of you who replied to my email. In particular, Jeff, Richard and David for their photo posting suggestions. I will give them a try this weekend and see what I am able to do. I think I tried one 3 or more years ago. I not any smarter but maybe I am a little more computer savvy. I am 68 years old and in the past I have said I would sell my collection when I turned 70 but I think I might die with my boots on. Anyhow when I am gone or need the money the posters will go on the market. I believe in giving other collectors a chance to acquire some of the scarce posters that I own. No one in my family has any interest in them and considers my interest a mild eccentricity. They know there is money in the collection but I don't talk about what I paid. They will have suggestions who to contact. Giving them to an institution without money to process and catalog them often condemns them to a storage area where they will not be accessible or seen by the public. I decided to collect 20s, 30s and 40s posters because they were some the movies I really enjoyed plus the stone litho artwork on many of them was what I loved. I have a pretty good collection of film noir missing some key (expensive) titles I passed on some due to cost or not caring for the movie. I have a pretty strong collection of the 30s and 40s detective series. About 10% of my posters are off genre ranging from a French one sheet of Keaton's Navigator to 12 O'clock High with Peck. When I tell people I have over 600 posters in my collection they are taken aback. I just tell them I have been collecting over 35 years, I didn't buy them 2 weeks ago. I am probably most proud of the mystery/crime posters from the 30s that I own. Some titles are Mystery of Mr X one sheet 1934, The Thirteenth Guest 3 sheet, 1932, Notorious Sophie Lang one sheet 1935, Crack Up one sheet 1937 with Lorre, Night Club Lady 1932 one sheet with Menjou, Bombay Mail one sheet with Lowe, a Universal production and others. Many have only been offered a couple times, some I have never seen outside my collection. Of course scarcity does not guarantee value. There has to be interest and demand, otherwise why would many film noir titles command a big price when they appear in auction several times a year. You just need deep pockets and you can own them. If anyone cares to email me i would be pleased to hear from them.
