[MOPO] ADRIAN COWDRY
This is Eve Cowdry, Ade's wife. I have only just been able to access Ade's emails and was stunned at the thread on here. I have never been on here before so hope this gets through ok. I wanted to say a big thank you to all of you and your comments about him - you have summed him up accurately and to say I have a lump in my throat and tears flowing would be an understatement. It is now 8 weeks since he died and life without him is beyond hard. I know time is a great healer. I am still going through so much administration work and have not yet been able to start on his business yet, and of course my priority is to be strong to help our children. In time I will be able to grieve myself but have too much to do yet to allow it. So, a question that I have please. Adrian has many items here at home which are part of the Excalibur Auction postponed from September to December. I think there may be some other items that belong to other dealers/clients that he may have been trying to sell for you or hold for a future auction. If Adrian had anything of yours that was not for the postponed September auction, would you please contact me and let me know the item(s) so we can discuss where you want to go from here? Thank you again.

The poster’s lenticular design means that the image changes depending on the angle of view, with the straight ahead view showing Sirius Black in the “Wanted” style poster, whilst viewing from most other angles causes him to disappear! Adrian Cowdry our poster & autographs specialist explained that: “Although a large quantity of this image in lenticular style was produced in smaller formats, the costs and complexities of producing this in such a large format meant that less than ten were produced for the Prisoner of Azkaban film. We estimate that this poster will achieve £4,000-£6,000.” The catalogue is available to view on both the saleroom.com and Invaluable with registration for the auction to bid online possible on both bidding platforms where the terms and conditions of bidding can be found.

However, there are times when the professionally taken photos in various major auctions makes the posters look much better than they actually are. Some photographers use a vacuum press which completely eliminates the foldlines and creases. Whilst they are striving to provide top quality photos, I sometimes wonder if it would be better to show the poster as it actually is.

Re: [MOPO] PEE WEE'S BIG COMEBACK
I feel that Pee Wee is one of the worst entertainers to ever grace the cinema screens...along with Jerry Lewis and Ben Stiller...Pee Wee is creepy and I saw the film before his conflagrations...it was is not funny...Look at Gene Wilder in Charlie and The Chocolate Factory...a great performance. Pee Wee is full on creepy - and very unfunny But it all comes down to taste - Chevy Chase in Fletch is excellent, Steve Martin is superb (except for his Pink Panther films whjich really cannot compare with Peter Sellers) - I saw Pee Wee while I was in the US and I have to say it was the worst waste of my time - I have never felt so ripped off coming out of a cinema - and my mum and dad were with me and they felt the same. Anyhow - I have aired my feelings - perhaps a good idea to draw a line here.

Or he doesn't find that act funny. However, I can attest to the fact that some do and I will go so far as to say some future generations will still find it so. I love you (and all you do) Pee Wee!

Who knew that when I posted this rather interesting article from the Times Magazine that we were going to unearth all this. Adrian seems to have a very clear idea of what and who is funny and what and who isn’t. But I think it’s worth noting that what and who is funny morphs thru the years. In 1948, audiences thought that Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis were madly funny - and Paramount rejoiced as they kept stashing all that cash. Later the French almost enshrined Lewis as not only funny, but a serious auteur. Have you watched HOLLYWOOD OR BUST recently? I adore Monty Python, but you might get a yawn from more than a few post-millenials, who might not get what the big fuss was. And the Goon Show? Now that really is an antique. But nevertheless I appreciate them, and I adore Peter Sellers. But do you think that people would howl at A SHOT IN THE DARK today as they did at the Inwood Theater in Dallas when I first saw it. I doubt it. I think that Pee Wee (Paul Rubens) was not so much funny himself as he brought something entirely new to comedy. He saw people like George Lucas mining pop-culture gold and turning it into adventurous faux sci/fi. I think that he realized that all that pop-culture stuff could be sent up comically just as well. And he, and the ensemble he worked with, did just that extremely well, re-filtering childhood in America in the fifties in a way that mixed nostalgia and the absurd brilliantly. And I think that Netflix and Judd Apatow have a well placed bet that the American public will pay to watch him on Netflix go at it again. But I will say that the last thing I find Pee Wee is “creepy.” Kirby On Feb 17, 2016, at 5:26 PM, Posteropolis <posteropo...@bell.net> wrote: Can I just chip in here and say I’ve never cared for Benny Hill? *ducks* But I loved The Goons.

Paul Reubens initiated a new character - a naive kid who just gotoff the bus - who in the storyline eventually evolved into a comic. All of LA was mythic and eye-opening to this character and he hada way of making you see the fairy tale of it all through his eyes. This was the first appearance of Pee-Wee and on successive Fridaynights he would appear and hone the character - change things here or there -draw in the audience more and more - Until he finally put together Pee-Wee’sPlayhouse - the stage production - with other members of the Groundlings group- truly brilliant comic talents. The movies were fun, I thought - But, all I can say is that in person in those early days andthrough the development of Pee-Wee’s stage show - I have seen few things funnier or laughed at fewer things harderthat I did that show. Rubens would come out tossing candy to everyone, dancing on histip toes, engaging the audience. I don’t know what it was - but he definitely tapped something bothmythic and absurd - a wonderful and unusual combination. Paul was always a very kind and gentle person, even quiet, and itwas a shame he hit the Hollywood Babylon skids as he did.

Paul Reubens initiated a new character - a naive kid who just got off the bus - who in the storyline eventually evolved into a comic. All of LA was mythic and eye-opening to this character and he had a way of making you see the fairy tale of it all through his eyes. This was the first appearance of Pee-Wee and on successive Friday nights he would appear and hone the character - change things here or there - draw in the audience more and more - Until he finally put together Pee-Wee’s Playhouse - the stage production - with other members of the Groundlings group - truly brilliant comic talents. The movies were fun, I thought - But, all I can say is that in person in those early days and through the development of Pee-Wee’s stage show - I have seen few things funnier or laughed at fewer things harder that I did that show. Rubens would come out tossing candy to everyone, dancing on his tip toes, engaging the audience. I don’t know what it was - but he definitely tapped something both mythic and absurd - a wonderful and unusual combination. Paul was always a very kind and gentle person, even quiet, and it was a shame he hit the Hollywood Babylon skids as he did. We all have our feet of clay - But in the old days - when it was fresh and never seen before - his act was nothing short of scream out loud riotous - you literally couldn’t get the air out of your lungs fast enough. Jeez, I’d love to see something that funny once again!

Re: [MOPO] PEE WEE'S BIG COMEBACK
I will not disagree and be judgemental about Ben Stiller as a person nor his family - but as an actor someone told him once that he was funny and he believed them...he is much better as a director...his funniest thing ever was being in Extras with Ricky Gervais - great respect for that because he took a great deal of micket taking.

For 20 years, the Hollywood Poster Auction and Cinevent were paired successfully in Columbus on Memorial Day Weekend. Saddened by the challenges that Steve Haynes has had to deal with recently, and the closing of the past venue, the Ramada, I have had to move quickly to assure that my consignors would be well served, and family members who run my auction with me would have everything in place and ready to go by May 23. Time has been of the essence. Attempts to find another place in Columbus for a seamless transition have failed for me, as there was not a venue suitable to both the convention's and my needs space wise. What was found to meet the needs of a film show was not adequate to give me what what was required for my auction. Encouraged by several colleagues and collectors to move the auction to Cleveland, I quickly acted and found the Sheraton Hotel at Cleveland Hopkins Airport to be more than suitable in many respects. Steve and I are on the best of terms, and understand each other's difficulties at this time, and we have wished each other well as we move forward.

Re: [MOPO] Will Cinevent take place this year?
I am sure Cinevent doesn't come cheap...Morries auction alone costs a good packet...and that being siad is why Columbus was used - the venue was cheap! I am pretty sure if/when the venue is changed the prices of tables will go up! The dealers will be complaining or not attending or certainly not taking a table. That is the dichotomy... A venue change means more expenses - which will certainly chase a few dealers away...last year quite a few dealers just took a room and dealt from there not paying for a table... Maybe this is the death knell of cinevent...If the Columbus hotel refurbishes bet your wallet that the prices will go up - Insurance should cover the work...but that comes at a premium. It will all have to be paid for...That dealer room has to cost a few bucks for the weekend. Lets face it - the bigger the convention the more people attend the quicker the venue is paid for. Cinevent was losing dealers be it through lack of interest, lack of buyers, people dying and people not being able to afford itso many times the hotel was complained aboutnow it becomes more expensive and that will be fact wherever it is moved to or refurbished.

Re: [MOPO] What makes London After Midnight so valuable?
The fact that hardly anything survives on this film - so yes the rarity makes it valuable. The film is unseen and is an icon of the silent horror films - having read the recent recreation in book form it's a bit cheesy - not quite up to Dracula but it certainly trawls along with those silent Horror's of the time - perhaps not as good as Nosferatu but certainly it has iconic images of Lon Chaney. The poster surely drops into the same vein as the Universal Monsters that reach very high prices - how many of those posters are available? How man London After Midnight? As we all know Horror and Sci Fi are the big parts of this hobby that grab the attention of collectors - Metropolis, Frankenstein, The Mummy, Dracula, and even the more common titles Forbidden Planet, Day the Earth Stood Still - all are innovative films and stand tall in cinema history. Perhaps that is the main reason London After Midnight is worth so much - I should add that the price paid for this poster is what the buyer wanted to pay and it is that valuable to him and possibly the underbidder - an item like this will garner such attention but it comes down to what the buyer wants to pay - if it were a King Kong three sheet or Outlaw six sheet that there are enough in circulation to have a going rate. London After Midnight is one poster that will reach it's own level of value. So is it such an innovative film to garner this much value? Probably. I would say that is the main reason this poster is this valuable = or the buyer decided he would pay this much for the poster because it is an innovative film and it is extremely rare. It is an interesting question that you raise John - because I would ask why certain posters have become so valuable - not quite in the same vein but why is Attack of the 50ft Woman got such a price tag? And why has Breakfast at Tiffany's got such a price tag? 50ft Woman has a great cheesy image but the film is not innovative, it has to be one of the worst movies of the sci fi era yet the poster has a high price tag compared to say Invaders from Mars or The Astounding She Monster. And Brealfast at Tiffany's we all know is the ladies favorite and presents Audrey Hepburn in the little black number by Dior yet it is relatively common - I have had this discussion with good friends within the business and hobby and we are of the opinion that some posters reach prices that they shouldn't - yes those of us lucky enough to be selling such posters are happy but the question I ask is why are such posters tagged with a high price? No one can say these two films are innovative - a 50ft Woman wandering about the country and a film about a sophisticated call girl (if it were the book of Tiffany's with Miss Golightly the fragile creature who has a wing or two down then I can understand but the film is not that great - in my opinion).

I would be interested in your opinions as to what makes London After Midnight such a valuable poster. Obviously, it’s rarity is a factor and the artwork is impressive but there are plenty of other rare posters from that era for truly great films that wouldn’t go for even a fraction of the price that was achieved on the weekend. The interesting thing to me is that the film has not been seen by anyone for at least 75 years. I know it was “recreated” some years ago from a collection of stills but the recreation might well be far removed from the original version. Just curious about your thoughts.

Re: [MOPO] What makes London After Midnight so valuable?
I would agree that the Horror/Universal Horror phenomenon is probably the base for the London After Midnight reaching such a good price. Your point about the film not having been seen by anyone for the past 70 odd years is spot on - if it were seen by an audience today would it stand up? Probably not as we are somewhat sophisticated and want more from a film - but it probably would if it were seen by Film Scholars...does Lon Chaney's Phantom of the Opera stand up? Of course it does I hear the crowd shout...but does it really? We all have an opinion - Lon Chaney created iconic images with his make up and that certainly goes to why London After Midnight garnered the attention at Heritage. Phantom stands up because of that and the presence Lon Chaney has on screen - LAM would probably be seen in the same vein. I have to say I would dearly like to see LAM, I have seen Nosferatu and many other silents - none really stand up today but of course just under 100 years ago audiences were less sophisticated or at least expected less than what we have on screen now. Such a film as LAM would be viewed as cheesy by todays audiences but all those years ago... Frankenstein and Dracula were two innovative films and thrilled audiences back then - I was thrilled watching them late at night with my parents allowing me to watch the horror double bills but now there is an element of nostalgia that has me being tender toward those films. I love them like most horror fans do - but do they stand up? Well those films are seen as the grand daddy's to the new horror flicks today and there was iconography and innovation. And certainly those films had their influence from the silent horrors. I am not sure I agree with the point about the hype - If the Frankenstein six sheet, that legendary almost mythical poster with such a great story of discovery behind it, if it should ever come up for sale what would it reach? We can all speculate, I think it would excess all the records...is it about hype? I don't think so I think it is about desire - there must be horror collectors who seek holy grails - LAM would be a grail and wanted in a collection there is no two ways about that. Your comment about Hitchcock's Blackmail is relevant and I think such a poster would reach a good price - probably not LAM territory - but I would cautiously say that there are probably more horror collectors with deep pockets than Hitch...and I don't say that lightly. How many people do you see dressing as a Hitch subject at Halloween? I would say if the average joe saw someone dressed as Chaney from LAM then they would be recognised as a Vampire or Jekyll and Hyde type. The Horror images far outstrip the Hitch images - I have a book that was published back in the early 1970's by Denis Gifford - I can remember seeing images of LAM in there (Lon Chaney in full grin) and wondering about the film - nothing was available of course. Hitch of course is less mainstream. But talking of hype - The Outlaw six sheet had it's hype and look what happened (given there are now four of those posters uncovered) - but here we have an iconic poster that was hyped and it didn't reach anywhere near LAM territory. Why? Because horror reaches more imaginations than Jane Russell's cleavage - probably! And yes LAM is rare - the fact that the film is lost helps the price - if there were 100 one sheets and half sheets etc. on this film then the price reached would not have been made. It is rare and such a poster has to be treated like fine art - one or very few examples exist. 1958 Dracula is rare and has estimates of 12 to 50 examples world wide in UK Quad format. Not LAM territory but hey surely thats rare? And it is extremely desirable - Iconic image as well. But will it ever reach LAM territory? Probably not whether it was hyped or not. As for one of a kind posters reaching the similar money as LAM from the same era - well what if there were a poster for the Edison Frankenstein? Metropolis has done it and there are four of the German three sheets...are they hyped? They certainly have holy grail status...Invisible Man teaser? Got to be another Holy Grail. Lastly - I think it's because Horror has such a fascination and is a great part of nostalgia that such posters go high. Horror is thrill stuff - Hitch is a bit more cerebral. Audiences since the days of theatre liked to be thrilled and what better way than to get the imagination going about being turned into an undead?

Your point about the film not having been seen by anyone for the past 70 odd years is spot on - if it were seen by an audience today would it stand up? Probably not as we are somewhat sophisticated and want more from a film - but it probably would if it were seen by Film Scholars...does Lon Chaney's Phantom of the Opera stand up? Of course it does I hear the crowd shout...but does it really? We all have an opinion - Lon Chaney created iconic images with his make up and that certainly goes to why London After Midnight garnered the attention at Heritage. Phantom stands up because of that and the presence Lon Chaney has on screen - LAM would probably be seen in the same vein. I have to say I would dearly like to see LAM, I have seen Nosferatu and many other silents - none really stand up today but of course just under 100 years ago audiences were less sophisticated or at least expected less than what we have on screen now. Such a film as LAM would be viewed as cheesy by todays audiences but all those years ago... Frankenstein and Dracula were two innovative films and thrilled audiences back then - I was thrilled watching them late at night with my parents allowing me to watch the horror double bills but now there is an element of nostalgia that has me being tender toward those films. I love them like most horror fans do - but do they stand up? Well those films are seen as the grand daddy's to the new horror flicks today and there was iconography and innovation. And certainly those films had their influence from the silent horrors.

About 25 years ago, my wife and I were traveling blue highways from west coast to the east coast for 6 weeks with about 15K in posters in the old SUV - We stopped at every junk shop we saw and traded posters for toys, just before toys took off. (I figured if movie posters were art - then toys were sculpture - and I couldn’t get enough.) Had never met Morrie but called him and we arranged to meet at a Holiday Inn or something in Cleveland or Columbus - But the fun thing was we took over a banquet room and each took tables to lay out hundreds of posters. Imagine a 2 man movie poster convention. He was keen for a bunch of my not so valuable but tough to find titles from the 1950’s to fill in blanks in his holdings And I went for anything that looked cool - My favorite was the kicker in the deal - a Belgian Flash Gordon on linen he gave me - still a cherished piece.

From Over the pond The London Westminster fair is the most well established fair in the UK for movie memorabilia - there are a slew of other conventions that take in more than just movie memorabilia (comics, toys etc) - however the London film fair is fast becoming a signing fair with the emphasis on celebs signing autographs. Talk to the dealers and there is disappointment as the attendees are more interested in meeting the celebs and getting their autographs. It is extremely tough to get a good mix with a smaller event. The bigger events bring in bigger crowds - not necessarily there to spend money. But the dealers will not complain if there is a good amount of attendees. At the end of September we had the Paris film fair which is turning very much into a Columbus type event where dealers meet to buy and trade. This year the attendees were down - there was plenty of inter dealing but again

Re: [MOPO] Ray Court and other fairs - from over the pond.
This last Cinevent showed that the hotel is being refurbished - the new owners are investing but it's like any business they will want a guarantee and in the hotel business that sort of thing happens at airports and major cities not out in the boonies. The standard is not that bad...I have stayed in worse places!

That is a good question Bruce. I was not even aware of it. Regarding the Cinevent show in Columbus I will have to side with Adrian on that one. We all know the hotel is horrendous but the show itself is tolerable only because I get to see friends and do some buying in person(as Frank points out). Unfortunately, the dealers seem to be outnumbering the poster buyers. In fact, most of the commerce happens between dealers. There is less and less incentive in getting a table as most of the sales are out of the dealer’s actual hotel rooms. I still get a table to support the show. This year the number of dealers was down. You will hear that attendance was great, etc but most of the attendees watch movies(I assume, they certainly are not spending money). This is a real shame because there is good material there. I realize it is a thankless and not a particularly lucrative effort to put on this show and I appreciate Steve’s commitment to it. That said, it has the appearance of being on auto-pilot, which is to say that there have been no improvements/enhancements in quite some time. The hotel continues to give way to entropy, the dealers are dropping out(the largest volume seller in the world doesn’t even bother to make an appearance), the customers are not buying and the auction is akin to the Bataan death march. It is held all day Saturday, which is the biggest sales day for dealers. The auction should be a premier event that draws attendees to the show, not an event that draws whatever poster collectors attending the show away from the dealer’s room(s).

From Over the pond The London Westminster fair is the most well established fair in the UK for movie memorabilia - there are a slew of other conventions that take in more than just movie memorabilia (comics, toys etc) - however the London film fair is fast becoming a signing fair with the emphasis on celebs signing autographs. Talk to the dealers and there is disappointment as the attendees are more interested in meeting the celebs and getting their autographs. It is extremely tough to get a good mix with a smaller event. The bigger events bring in bigger crowds - not necessarily there to spend money. But the dealers will not complain if there is a good amount of attendees. At the end of September we had the Paris film fair which is turning very much into a Columbus type event where dealers meet to buy and trade. This year the attendees were down - there was plenty of inter dealing but again the comments from the dealers were negative concerning the amount of attendees and it was very obvious that there were a few dealers missing - the price of the table and time taken can be restrictive with little return. It has to be said that bargains were available - dealers were making reductions when being bartered. The Paris fair is a tough call - the attendees like to hunt and rummage but do not spend on higher end items now. The one thing I can say is that most collectors do still like to attend a fair and feel the quality so to speak - however many collectors now have what they want or cannot afford the big items - from my generation examples would be Hammer Collectors and Bond as well as McQueen etc. They have been collecting now for the past 30 years or so and have a reasonably complete collection - Those who collect Universal Monsters and the like are very wealthy now and can afford the pocket change that a poster will cost.

I attended. It was a good first show. Ray rounded up a solid celebrity list and most of the usual dealers were present. Based on the e-mail Ray sent out after the show, he realizes he still has some work to do to get the show back up to the level he had achieved before he sold it. His last e-mail indicated that he's negotiating dates with the Burbank Marriott. As for Columbus, I've attended consistently over the last ten years, and it's still a terrific show. As a dealer, I would never miss it. Granted the hotel is the absolute pits end but I gave up on staying there a long time ago before it descended into its current condemned state. Buying and selling at this show offers an opportunity that the Internet simply does not. You actually get to meet people with the same unique passion as your own. I'd never miss this one. I'm a little less fond of The Hollywood Show which is terrific as an autograph show but less so as a movie paper event. I detest the endless maze at the parking lot at the Loews Hotel, so going forward I only plan to attend the Westin shows at LAX airport.

Re: [MOPO] FILM NOIR 1940s-1950s
Film Noir is such a wide subjective range. Personally I have sold many but I cannot say over the years multiples - the one I think was the best was the UK Quad for To Have and to Have Not...arguably the best paper on the film. One that I get requested the most is Out of the Past one sheet - possibly the best image of Mitchum ever. But does Blade Runner enter into the fray? - okay it's Sci Fi but it was filmed in the noir style - for me this is the poster I have sold the most that can be deemed a noir film. Does 12 Angry Men sneak into the noir genre? If so I have sold a few of them. One that doesn't do me any favours yet the film is a noir classic is The Asphalt Jungle - not an inspiring poster.

Re: [MOPO] What do you call this size poster?
Getting off topic a little, while that Man Who Fell to Earth Half Subway is stunning I personally prefer the Vic Fair art. I think the Fair art is more apt to what the film is all about as opposed to a silver image of Bowie. Two different campaign images - advertising the film in two different ways.

As long as the image is the same as the onesheet, I agree with Bruce: Most collectors might indeed prefer the onesheet. However, sometimes the subway campaign used completely different images, like this Style B poster for THE MAN WHO FELL TO EARTH: http://www.filmposter.net/movieposters/poster/movie/original/the-man-who-fell-to-earth-16/search/1/pno/0/ This image was not used anywhere else, and it's far superior to the onesheet. Also, sometimes the half subways were printed on flat paper stock. To some collectors, they may be more attractive than the 'glossy' onesheets. Which, of course, does not mean they are more expensive. Talk about 'rare' formats: Most likely the rarest format of all the US posters is the 'Subway Window Card', measuring 21x22 in. These were used in displays inside the subway trains and this is a format that hardly ever shows up at all. Helmut Thanks. I will pass that information along. If that is all that you have ever sold (236 records out of 1 million sales), I would argue that they are fairly scarce. But I am not convinced (based on the sale prices) that these garner a premium over the corresponding 1-sheets. Would you agree?

It is called a half subway, and measures 29 1/2 x 45 1/2 or so. Full subway posters measure 45 x 60. In the 1970s and 1980s, studios were creating subway posters for many releases, which were 45 x 60 horizontally-shaped posters that were glued up on walls all over New York City (hence the name subway poster). They also made these smaller subway posters which measure approximately half the size of a regular subway poster (usually around 29 x 45), and look like a one-sheet, only bigger, but they have information about one or more specific New York theaters then-currently showing that movie.

Re: [MOPO] restorer question
Oh wow, Chelsea has moved on - I wonder why, she was great at Poster Mountain. This Never Happened to the Other Fella Adrian Cowdry jboh...@aol.com -Original Message- From: Susan filmfantast...@msn.com To: MoPo-L MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU Sent: Tue, 3 Jun 2014 2:24 Subject: Re: [MOPO] restorer question They are a new company. Chelsea use to work for John at Poster Mountain. She and some other artists have started this company in my area. I am about 5 minutes from John and they are about 20 minutes from me. I am going to give them something to try them out. I am very happy with my restorer that I use now, but because they are close to me, there may be an occasional item I need quickly. So, I will let you know the results.
