Re: [MOPO] Ed Mason

[Paul Gerrard]

Yes it's amazing just how far the internet has taken over from  all that in 
a relatively short time. I already find it difficult to  remember how I 
used to cope in the "old days". I mean, how did I ever  find out anything about 
anything without googling it? I guess I must have  left the house and 
talked to people! A visit to a shop like Ed's could  turn out to be an all-day 
event. If you didn't end up talking about  posters/films for ages yourself, 
there was a good chance you'd be tuning  into someone else talking about 
posters/films for ages. On the flip  side, through the witchcraft of the online 
forum it has become much  easier to speak Poster Geek internationally to 
poster geeks you didn't even know  existed.

Cinemonde was a bit too upscale for the likes of me. I always  felt like I

In general, it  was great to have a place to walk into and be able to learn 
about movie poster  history...actually, back then, that was pretty much the 
ONLY way to speak  Poster Geek with another human being.

[MOPO] Ed Mason

[JOHN REID Vintage Movie Memorabilia]

Very sorry to hear this. I used to see Ed often in the 90s and had many great 
conversations with him when he had his shop in the Chelsea Antique Market ( I 
think that’s what it was called). He was a very knowledgeable dealer and did a 
great in organising the conventions at Westminster. 

Regards

John

Dear all 

Just to keep you informed, Ed Mason has passed away, many of you will know him 
as the organiser of the London Film Fair and he will be in your history 
somewhere as contributing in your collection in some fashion.

I gather there is no family to pass condolences on to.

Wow. Didn't know the gentleman but I was just ruminating on the idea of walk-in 
movie poster stores. We had three in San Francisco that I recall: Memory Shop

Jose ma Carpio's place. I remember walking into the Cinema Shop and buying a 
one sheet from "It Came from Outer Space" for a whopping $25, a fortune at the
