Re: [MOPO] Nerdiest question ever....

[MPC]

Thanks for all the great responses!

The reason I focused on 45-75 MPs is because most of the preWW2 stock was 
presumably destroyed in the paper drives.

Re: [MOPO] Nerdiest question ever....

[Phillip Ayling]

"If the surviving 1945-75 posters didn't originate one way or another from
the exchanges, where the he[ck] did they come from"

 

It's important to note that there were numerous private poster services in
the US and Canada; some as early as the late 1920's.

 

NSS didn't get into the 'poster' business until the late 1930's and they
didn't handle posters for all the different studios as a virtual monopoly
until several years after World War II. Among the last studios to come
aboard were Columbia and Republic. Even then, NSS continued to sell to the
private exchanges for about 15 more years until freezing them out
completely.

 

Many pre- 1965 posters that are now in collections came by way of these
private poster services. In 1960, when I was 10, I dealt with 4 different
poster services just in Oklahoma City alone.

 

The stock in these exchanges (excluding materials made by the "Other
Company" or other non-studio printers) was generally acquired by an exchange
in four different ways:

A.  From the studios themselves; or the Litho Companies that had been
authorized to sell to exchanges on behalf of a given studio.

B.  From movie theatres who had purchased materials officially from a
studio to cover a release and now no longer needed them.

C.  From the merger or acquisition of another exchange.

D. From NSS as they gradually became dominant and then a monopoly.

I know two large companies in particular that bought huge amounts of paper
from a couple of different NSS location when they began to go out of
business in the 1970's and 1980's.  One in particular told me that they
attended an event at a NSS facility back east and there were pallets of
paper stack everywhere and it was sold for like 25 cents a pound and you
would just buy the pallet of paper.  He bought paper that looked the oldest.
He bought enough paper that, a few years back when I was at their facility,
they have a large storage container, like the kind you see on freight ships,
filled wall to wall with paper.  I know in particular there was a lot of old
stuff because he has the good stuff.  I know he sold the original half sheet
for Bride of Frankenstein to Ron Borst back in the 1970's.  

 

So, I know there were many companies that were a part of this "clearance" of
paper at the various NSS facilities.  So, I'm sure this is one outlet that
old movie posters are still coming from, that "clearance" stock

Re: [MOPO] Nerdiest question ever....

[Todd]

Many of them did purge, not only old posters but also 35mm coming attraction 
trailers which, depending on the title, can be worth quite a bit today.


It would break any collector's heart to know of all the great material that was 
just tossed out as garbage!!


Some facilities were more secure than others.  I know the one in Paramus, New 
Jersey was extremely secure.  Others were less secure, like the one in Kansas 
City, MO as I know of at least one collector there who was dumpster diving at 
that facility.

Todd,

Did the NSS exchanges or regional locations have actual printing plants on the 
premises? Or was the physical printing of the posters done offsite and then 
sent back to the exchanges, where they were then distributed from?

Thanks,

Jeff

I can't speak for all of the NSS Exchanges but when I had my connection with

get posters going back to the 1930's.

No Casablanca's or Frankenstein's or other possibe Classic titles, but 
definitely posters going all the way back to the 1930's.

[MOPO] Nerdiest question ever....

[MoviePoster Collectors]

Not sure why this percolated into my brain, but did the NSS Exchanges
systematically purge old posters (i.e.10+ years old) so that by the time
they shut down in the mid-80s they just didn't have older posters that were
not - or could not - have been rescued?

I heard an interview explaining that a Canadian exchange one day just
tossed out its older posters. I also read that somebody visited the Atlanta
(or Miami) exchange and it didn't have any older posters when it shut down.

[MOPO] erasing unwanted poster bits

[Michael Greenwood]

Hello MoPeople


Is there any consensus or does anybody have any proven tactic for erasing 
pencil, coloured pencil or "grease pencil" markings from posters without 
disturbing the original printed mater underneath? Can this be done? Tell me it 
can and tell me how! Sometimes people like to use these tools to censor certain 
parts of posters that I love and it drives me crazy (I'm all about freedom!) so 
I'd love to know if anybody can guide me or point me to products and/or methods 
that can safely erase this rash and unsightly blight from my beloved and 
innocent paper.


Thanks!

Michael
