Re: [MOPO] AS OF JUNE 1st, EBAY DEMANDS THAT ALL PACKAGES SENT HAVE TRACKING NUMBERS

[Freeman Fisher]

Wait guys,
As of yesterday, using the feature when you click on "items sold" on EBAY and 
click add tracking link that is on every sold item listed,   I have been able 
to enter in both kinds of customs forms numbers (for first class, the smaller 
form, or the larger form for priority) on overseas sales and seemingly that 
satisfies the tracking information issue.   

Indeed  tracking using customs form numbers only tells you when it has arrived 
at the overseas destination, and when released from customs.   IT DOES NOT TELL 
YOU WHEN IF EVER DELIVERED TO ADDRESSEE.   This may not ultimately win a 
dispute because signature wasn't required on delivery but at least its 
something but at least its something that seller can see that the item has been 
shipped and on its way..which helps assuage his panic.

Re: [MOPO] KERRY HAGGARD WAS SENTENCED TODAY!

[Freeman Fisher]

Jim,
Thanks for the tenacity in which you pursued this not only for yourself but for 
everyone victimized and the Hobby as a whole.  I can only presume Haggard's 
"good ole' boy" demeanor didn't even cause a dink in the Judge's armor.  
Excellent.  Early release  from 6 years and 6 months I take it is not in the 
cards for him.


6.5 years puts him somewhere around  the second year of Hillary Clinton's 
Presidency.   Awesome.  (lol)

[MOPO] Census Takers / So Rare

[Freeman Fisher]

I do think there is a lot of credibility to the experts on rare Horror posters. 
 One can speak to Ron Moore, Todd Fiertag, Jim Gresham, Larry Elig, Ralph De 
Luca and not only get an amazing inventory of what is out there, but also the 
stories (some hilarious and dramatic) in their discovery and a history of the 
hands the paper has passed and where they currently reside.Not so much 
Norma Talmadge.

Re: [MOPO] Rare ALIEN Glory book -- less than 30 produced

[Freeman Fisher]

Geraldine,
Your description of this ALIEN booklet is not accurate.  These booklets were 
sent out to exhibitor owners and execs.  Back in the 1970's  there still 
existed numerous blind bid states.  I worked in Texas
 and it was the most extreme example given the sizes of Houston, Dallas, Fort 
Worth, San Antonio and Austin and the money those markets represented
 Blind bidding was when a theatre chain had to commit to a film, sometimes a 
year in advance, with terms outlined (1st two weeks at 70% 2nd two weeks at 60% 
etc.) and frequently putting up at times tens of thousands
if not all together 100's of thousands of dollars on the blockbusters  WITHOUT 
EVER SEEING A SCRAP OF FILM.   So these booklets were sent out prior to bidding 
and came in all kinds of formats.some just a couple of fold out pages to 
nice booklets with on set photography.  If my memory isn't completely failing, 
I recall booklets on STAR WARS, ALIEN, BLADE RUNNER, APOCALYPSE NOW, WILLOW, 
OUTLAND, EXCALIBUR and a few others that
were really impressive.  Others like ET (at the time called A BOY'S LIFE)  were 
just gate folded brochures (no picture of ET for sure that was such a huge 
secret). Same with RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK,  CLASH OF THE TITANS, etc. etc.
And then some were just a single printed sheet saying who starred, produced and 
directed.   (Can you imagine buying a car with a tarp over it and being given 
just a description and some art, commit to it, and not expect delivery 
for 9 to 12 months...that was blind bidding!)

Anyway to say only 30 were made is preposterous.  Just in Texas alone  there 
had to be at least 25 to 35 theatre chains, each film buyer and marketing guy 
receiving a copy. In the theatre chain I worked at, we usually would receive 
four to five and we were only in San Antonio.  Now  multiply those number by 
triple (or more) to accommodate the personnel at circuits like Plitt, AMC, 
General Cinema, United Artists, Mann,  and you can see the numbers required 
approach a 1000 in no time.  Plus certain critics at the major National News 
agencies received copies on occasion. 
 
Also a little common sense is in order. Once a brochure is on the printing 
press, or photos being printed and spiral bound,  do you honestly think under 
30 would be printed?  Because once on the presses it almost as cheap to print 
several  thousand as it is 20. The $$ are in the set-up.


These pieces were not dissimilar to the Studio Release books from the 1930's 
that pop up frequently.  


So while it makes for great Ebay copy to limit their numbers to generate a 
false sense of scarcity.  This is not the case with these marketing tools. 
Whether they have ever been in an auction or not is irrelevant.  
While you can ask whatever price you like, ($5000)  as a MOPO buddy I just hate 
to see someone look so foolish..

Re: [MOPO] Rare ALIEN Glory book -- less than 30 produced

[Freeman Fisher]

I tried nicely to explain to you nicely about the impressive bid brochures I 
received in the 70's including exactly the ALIEN book you are selling and also 
sited other examples including OUTLAND, EXCALIBUR and others, printed on 
photographic paper then spiral bound and sent to others outside the studio in 
the industry.  

 I am not going to get in a pissing match with you because you're tiresome.
If you look at my original post I tried to explain that some were photographic, 
others offset/printed depending on the needs.  Indeed they are still scarce
but to claim "less than 30 printed" is preposterous.  If you knew how many 
execs were at Fox (that doesn't even include producers, licensing etc.) at the 
time you would know even that amount doesn't hold water.  Also we received 
these books well before a single poster was printed or trailer 
created..literally in some cases a year in advance as was the case here.

But good look on your endeavors and pricing.

Re: [MOPO] Bad taste E-Bay transaction -- any similar experiences

[Freeman Fisher]

Henry,
Because there are assholes out there, paying for signature on delivery,  which 
I believe is only 35 cents more can go a long way in avoiding these slugs if 
this was a domestic shipment.  Priority Mail doesn't 
get you a signature even though it is more than first class.   You only get a 
signature with express mail.

Sorry you hooked a jerk.  But Ebay or Paypal may not back you up without a 
signature even though you sent Priority.

[MOPO] Filmoplast 90

[Freeman Fisher]

Helmut,
Can you site where you found filmoplast P90 will  turn in the immediate?  I 
mean if you are saying several decades down the line, maybe that's
being a tad over zealous.  The problem with the product you recommended is that 
when shoring up a cross fold
I have found it make refolding the paper makes it too bulky because the tape is 
thicker than filmoplast90.  However for edge tears
I guess is fine, I just don't like the weight.  Obviously using either is 
better than using Scotch Tape, Duct Tape, Strapping Tape or my favorite
I once received,  the sticky parts of an adhesive Band-Aid

freeman

filmoplast® P 90

Framing
filmoplast P 90 is made from a white, tear resistant paper and coated with 
Neschen’s own age resistant acrylic adhesive. filmoplast P 90 is widely used to 
hinge those works of art that do not warrant wheat paste and rice paper hinges. 
Both the adhesive and paper are buffered (pH 8.7 aged) so the tape remains 
acid-free for decades after application. Like all pressure sensitive tapes 
filmoplast P 90 should be burnished upon application with a clean bone folder 
to achieve the optimum bonding strength.

Library
Made from a white, tear resistant paper and Neschen’s own unique age resistant 
acrylic adhesive filmoplast P 90 is used widely for reinforcing folds on maps 
and music scores, reattaching paperback book covers and mending damaged paper 
edges. Both the adhesive and paper carrier are buffered (pH 8.7 aged) to 
prevent an influx of acids. Tape should be burnished upon application with a 
clean bone folder to achieve the optimum bonding strength.

[MOPO] Tony Scott Commits Suicide

[Freeman Fisher]

A sad tragedy:


Deadline Hollywood is quoting Los Angeles County Coroner’s officials as saying 
that the 68-year-old British film director jumped to his death today from the 
Vincent Thomas Bridge spanning San Pedro and Terminal Island. Tony Scott is 
known for such Hollywood blockbusters as “Top Gun,” "Man On Fire" 
"Unstoppable", “Days of Thunder,” “Beverly Hills Cop II” and “The Taking of 
Pelham 123,” as well as ScottFree Productions which producers TV shows like The 
Good Wife with his brother Ridley Scott. Tony Scott climbed a fence on the 
south side of the bridge’s apex and leaped “without hesitation” around 12:30 
PM, according to the Coroner’s Department and port police quoted by the 
newspaper. A suicide note was found inside Scott’s black Toyota Prius, which 
was parked on one of the eastbound lanes of the bridge, according to U.S. Coast 
Guard Lt. Jennifer Osburn.

[MOPO] Art World Is Getting Rocked With Fakes NYTimes

[Freeman Fisher]

Well movie posters hopefully have weathered the Haggard (and isolated others) 
forgery melt down.   But 
obviously based on the below article in todays NY Times, the art world has a 
serious problem.
Ebay seems to be a huge enabler as does the dreams fostered by reality shows 
like Antiques Road Show.
I have been hit recently with requests for so called original art ranging  from 
Icart, to Dali, to Matisse and two others.  Of
the now close to 16 pieces offered from different clients since April,  exactly 
ONE piece (an Icart) has checked out
to be original.   (Unfortunately they paid $2500 in 1992 and it is now worth 
$450-$850)

I bring this up only in that if I am being hit with requests from clients who 
purchased these items in the 80's, 90's and 2000's 
to see if I can find a buyer in today's market  (And c'mon my office is the 3rd 
pylon underneath a bridge on I-10 next to Smokes, the homeless guy)  
you guys have to be as well.

Below is the article entitled:

A Picasso Online for Just $450? Yes, It Is a Steal

Bargain hunting online? How about an original Rembrandt for $900 (“you can 
clearly tell its age by the paper,” the seller of this etching attests), or a 
signed piece in ink by Matisse for $1,250. (The artist’s work is, the online 
seller notes, “radical and unprecedented in the history of Western art.”)

Yes, Sotheby’s can command more than $100 million for a Picasso at auction. But 
shoppers on the Web can find an “original” painting by that master for a mere 
$450 — less than a pair of designer shoes.

Every day works labeled “original” and “authentic” and attributed to titans of 
the art world are offered at closeout prices by online galleries and auction 
sites. And every day people buy them.

That these works are sometimes fake or misleadingly labeled is no surprise to 
art experts and to foundations that monitor online art sales. But fraud has 
saturated certain sectors of the art market, experts say.

“In every country that I visit, even Abu Dhabi, I’m approached by artists or 
estates who are desperate about the fake situation,” said Véronique Wiesinger, 
the director and senior curator of the Alberto and Annette Giacometti 
Foundation in Paris. “We counted the other day 2,005 fake Giacometti sculptures 
for sale” on just one Web site, she added.

Many reputable online sellers, of course, deliver precisely what they 
advertise. “There is a lot of buying online, and most people are satisfied,” 
said Alan Bamberger, an art consultant and appraiser.

Over the last few years the Internet has broadened the art market far beyond 
the exclusivity and opaque jargon of its moneyed enclaves and has helped turn 
the slogan “art for everyone” into reality. But it has also become a sort of 
bazaar, where shoppers of varying sophistication routinely encounter all 
degrees of flimflammery, from the schemes of experienced grifters to the 
innocent mistakes of the unwitting and naïve. A recent study by statisticians 
at George Washington University and the University of California, Irvine, 
estimated that as many as 91 percent of the drawings and small sculptures sold 
online through eBay as the work of the artist Henry Moore were fake.

The Giacometti Foundation and the Picasso estate view the problem of bogus art 
sales as so acute that this year they helped found a new association, the 
International Union of Modern and Contemporary Masters, to promote legal 
protections “against the circulation of counterfeit works of art.”

Art is legitimately sold on the Internet at a wide spectrum of sites, including 
those run by individual artists; established galleries that have expanded 
online; and new galleries that represent the work of emerging artists. A 
byproduct of so many reputable businesses’ selling art through the Web these 
days, experts said, is that it has become easier for those that are less 
reputable to pass off forgeries.

Fakes can take many forms. Most common are unauthorized reproductions that 
violate an artist’s copyright or trademark. Other times the reproduction has 
been authorized, but someone adds the artist’s signature — either forged or 
copied — to transform a cheap poster into an expensive “signed” limited edition.

Finally, there are out-and-out forgeries sold as the work of an artist.

Last month David Crespo, the owner of a gallery in Madison, Conn., was charged 
with selling fake Picasso drawings that he had been duped into buying on the 
Internet years earlier. Mr. Crespo had paid nearly $50,000 for a supposed set 
of Picasso drawings from a seller known as Collectart4less, according to court 
papers. After discovering that they were reproductions, he sold several to 
unsuspecting buyers for hundreds of thousands of dollars, prosecutors say, 
providing false documents attesting to their authenticity and provenance. (Mr. 
Crespo has pleaded not guilty to the charges.)

Online art is often accompanied by a “certificate of authenticity” or a 
registry certi

Not that he didn't try...
Also if there is anyone interested in a multiple buy, don't hesitate to contact

[MOPO] 1.56 Million

[Freeman Fisher]

An unopened copy of Nintendo’s Super Mario 64 has sold at auction for $1.56 
million.
Heritage Auctions in Dallas said that the 1996 game sold Sunday, breaking its 
previous record price for the sale of a single video game.  Two days prior, The 
Legend of Zelda sold for 870,000.


Now that I have been working for an auction house for 8 years,  I always admire 
collectors and the diversity  it can represent:   Historic letters by the 
founding fathers,  rare first edition books,  Coca-Cola,  baseball cards,  NASA 
ephemera, photography, Hollywood... all a reflection of America (and also the 
worlds)  past.  So much a reflection of the times, footnotes that reflect most 
of the time, genius, artistry……greatness.  And these collectors are actually 
curators of history keeping their possessions with great care to pass onto 
another generation who with education and passion will continue carrying the 
baton of who we were,  how far we’ve come and the importance these artifacts 
represent

But  !@!!$@$%!! **!^#&^ video games?Dammit,  I got old fast.
Curmudgeonly yours,
Freeman Fisher

Re: [MOPO] Auction winnings

[Freeman Fisher]

MOPOers
Okay I need to weigh in on this mild kerfluffel regarding Prop Store, shipping 
charges etc.
All of you know I work at Goldberg Coins and Collectible as the Director of the 
division.  It’s my baby and that includes collections and shipping.
The challenges are huge and besides myself there are three others.
First bringing the auction to market, it’s never easy and it’s exhausting. Then 
two to three weeks later its auction time (in my case usually two days, may be 
three this July it got so huge)

The first issue is reconciling the auction and sending invoices.  We can’t 
automate by single lots because 85% of bidders buy more than one item.  It 
could be Laurel & Hardy signed photo and a guitar signed by the Bee Gees.  How 
can any computer anticipate accurately shipping or whether possible to combine? 
 That is a manually configured challenge.

Then billing,  dealing with a lot of new folks.   We have been burned so many 
times by card fraud  we like to wait three days with a card before shipping to 
see if rejected. It happens a lot.   Those are frequently easy to ferret out 
because they are always desperate to have  the item sent because it’s a 
birthday  present for the wife (really?  A Civil War rifle?)  So I have had to 
start actually doing this on the dozen or so suspicious bidders,,,

I Google their damn residence.  I swear it works but its time consuming. Great 
example last auction, two 18k gold bracelets, a fast talker and kept calling to 
have immediately shipped.  I Googled his shipping address and it was a bombed 
out trailer park in Baton Rouge with a blue tarp covering half of his roof.   
Busted

But all of these payments and special demands come to the fore.  It’s Summer,  
people travel, so a mix of can you hold shipping until such date, can you ship 
where I will be fishing etc. etc.  And that becomes an additional challenge in 
that if they are out of state, we have to adjust the invoice to remove CA sales 
tax, but possibly increase their shipping

There are so many variables.  Also understand with each day and avalanche of 
payments are being called in, wire transferred etc. but the plates spinning to 
get those paid shipped as carefully as possible are happening at the same time.

Every auction house knows the value of keeping their clients happy and I 
promise you every one of them bust their asses to make any issue right.  
Realizing the steps involved especially in auctions as large as Heritage, Prop 
Store, Bruce’s most certainly (which is a gold standard I shoot foe) might be 
worth a consideration.   I am going to have probably 1200 lots my next auction 
which I am usually 700-800.

So an advance plea for consideration, guys I have the damndest collection of 
entertainment memorabilia ever.  Not film posters,  (I have a few)  but the 
photographs will blow your mind as well as some killer signed pieces.   I also 
have a Thomas Jefferson signed Act of the 2nd Congress,  I have a one of a kind 
NASA model of Friendship 7, Glenn’s Mercury Mission never before seen)  I have  
modified Hassleblad used to train Apollo 14 astronauts, I have the finest 
collection of ancient glass Goldberg’s has ever had (you want to talk about 
difficult shipping?)   and I have three Roman marbles from the Flavian period 
1st Century AD that each weigh about 160 pounds.  Either of three will look 
great with your Steve Reeves posters.  I have Bobby Darrins original 
arrangement of Mack the Knife for trumpet who was none other that Doc 
Severenson,  So a huge collection of various weights, shapes and sizes, and 
like any auction house,  I want them to get there in perfect condition .

And perfection can indeed add days.  But its all good

Let me throw in a hearty defense of PropStore here, only because I have extreme 
personal experience with similar matters.

In the past few months I have been telling buyers after our auctions we need a 
total of 3 weeks to pack everything, so 4 to 6 weeks does not seem the 
slightest excessive to me, because the same people who pack posters likely also 
have to pack props, which can be super time-consuming.

And wouldn't everyone rather wait longer but get a superbly packed package, 
ESPECIALLY considering the man (and woman) handling so many packages and tubes 
have been receiving at the hands of the delivery services (the damage numbers 
are ten or twenty times what they used to be for us, indicating to me a total 
breakdown in their systems).

One thing I added was a $15 Rush Fee that solely moves your order to the top of 
the stack (behind already entered Rush Orders). This has soothed those who DO 
have an extreme urgency to get their order. Maybe PropStore might consider 
adding this (maybe at a higher fee), or maybe it just isn't feasible there.

I know everyone wants their items tomorrow (thanks to Amazon causin

Re: [MOPO] OT Okay Guys Watch The Politics! That Said Though...

Actually it was Ronnie Ray-Gun  ("Government is the problem, not the 
solution...) for Ted and Andrea, go read the Washington Post, it seems the rig 
was not registered in the US but the Marshall Islands as a ship, confounding 
what the US can and cannot due.  So easy to bash the man elected and his

Re: [MOPO] [MOPO) An Oversight I Suspect.

[Freeman Fisher]

Sean,
Great cards CONGRATULATIONS!   But I couldn't help but notice on your WIZARD OF 
OZ Lobby Card that NO WHERE does it say it is the '49 Re-Release, confusing for 
the newbie (or anyone!) in that your opening sentence states FROM THE ORIGINAL 
1939 RELEASE, THE WIZARD OF OZ.   While not on the same level of Kerry Haggard 
selling fakes,  by not clearly stating a re-issue is beneath your calibre as an 
attorney/dealer/fill-in-the-blank.  My guess it is just an egregious 
oversight.to be corrected promptly.

Your friend Freeman.

Re: [MOPO] Another Portal on the Horizon--THIEF OF BAGDAD

[Freeman Fisher]

You will love this particular Portal.  I have a minty one framed and enjoy 
seeing it every day as there is no way in hell I could ever afford the real one 
sheet.  I purchased it on Ebay about 6 years ago and actually had to fight a 
bit to get it.  It's the only repro I own, as it is IMHO one of the top 5 
poster designs in history.  And yes the printing is pretty great certainly 
better than the smaller versions on Moviegoods.

Re: [MOPO] Slabbed Lobby Cards GREY I'M TRULY THROWN BY THIS

[Freeman Fisher]

GREY,
I have followed all the conversations but no one has addressed my overriding 
issues.  IF I AM BUYING FROM HERITAGE, I WANT YOUR APPRAISAL OF THE MATERIALS 
OFFERED.  I and hundreds other collectors, dealers, hell the whole industry 
know you and your 99 and 9/10% accurate and all together very tough grading 
criteria.  And as you know, the satisfaction world wide is sky-high. 

That said, if I am buying from Bruce Hershenson, I want Bruce's demanding 
grading criteria and the knowledge his eyes are reviewing  offered material.   
ETC. ETC ETC. from Kirby, Todd, Cory, Rick, Dominique,  (oh shit the list is 
too long) suffice to say the scores of other people I have had the privilege of 
acquiring pieces from.  

I do not want to depend on the criteria of an anonymous cabal in Colorado whose 
sole interest is trying to widen their revenue by invading this hobby with 
so-called impartial & expert grading without a scintilla of proof of expertise, 
or without any knowledge of the criteria by which the grades are assessed.  

For example, what are the points off for an expert and sheer rice-paper-backed 
lobby card addressing possibly the most minimum waving  and single corner chip? 
  Okay  now how about two corner chips?  Okay one creased corner one corner 
chip and one ding?   Yeesh! 

Secondly,  the rationale that this MIGHT encourage newbies to the hobby and the 
installation of  confidence somehow justifies added expenses which thus must be 
either eaten by the seller or passed onto the buyer not only in the submission 
in grading,  but the expense of shipping to and from the "embalmers de 
plastic", and of course once entombed  the substantial increase in shippings  
For example, Grey, take your full set of lobby cards for OCEANS 11   The 
purchase just went from lobbies sandwiched carefully in between layers of 
double ply cardboard and your usual small box cushioning the sandwiched cards, 
to a substantially larger box  with each piece individually wrapped in bubble 
so as not to crack or scratch the "lobby coffins" .  

What is this about a 30% increase in additional costs overall?  Already many 
dealers are finding that linen backing of one sheets and larger are rarely 
costs fully realized back through sales as opposed to years passed.  Now a move 
to more expenses to instill confidence in a new collector?  Hasn't the industry 
already snapped to attention post Haggard with painfully articulated condition 
reports and imaging in lobby card sales more than ever before? I know I have 
and oh maybe 30 other dealers I know.

GREY, you are a leading industry player whether your are fully comfortable with 
that mantle or not.   I seriously think you should hold fast to your 
dedication, personal expertise and reputation built these last 10 years and by 
extension the overall excellent reputation of your company that YOU ALONE.  Why 
surrender to anonymous eyes no one knows, or care to throw money too,  who have 
been proven to be inconsistent in the comic book universe on numerous occasions 
 and whose interest is NOT in establishing confidence in the hobby but simply 
to raise their revenue as they brace for diminishing inventory available in 
comics?

  The only reason I can fathom in this ill advised move is that Heritage 
Corporate has some vested interest in the grading service whether directly or 
indirectly.  Well fine, leave it to coins, medallions and comic books.  But you 
should defend your territory with tenacity and by default other dealers as 
well.  Why sell out now?   You are on top of your game and you don't need nor 
should you defer to a faceless grading service when you are already  one of the 
best there is.

AND THAT GOES TO ALL THE OTHER GREAT DEALERS AND COLLECTORS ON THIS SITE.   

Bruce my suggestion for your next t-shirt.  Screen an empty lobby coffin with 
the words FUCK THIS SHIT  inside.of course give it a 9.9 rating to 
boot.. whatever the hell that means.

. okay i feel better now,
freeman fisher

[MOPO] Audrey Hepburn's Breakfast at Tiffany's Script.........Damn!

[Freeman Fisher]

Audrey Hepburn’s original working script for the 1961 movie “Breakfast at 
Tiffany’s” sold Wednesday night at Christie’s in London for £632,750, or about 
$847,000, appropriately enough to Tiffany & Co. The price was a high for any 
film script offered at auction, according the London-based auction house.

The 140-page typescript, annotated by the actress, was one of more than 250 
items from the private collection of Ms. Hepburn offered by her sons, Luca 
Dotti and Sean Hepburn Ferrer, at a live auction at Christie’s. Her depiction 
of the carefree, but stylish Manhattan bohemian, Holly Golightly, based on the 
character in Truman Capote’s novel, “Breakfast at Tiffany’s,” is widely 
recognized as Ms. Hepburn’s definitive role, for which she received an Academy 
Award nomination for best actress.


I am almost certain that is more than Patricia Neal paid for George 
Peppard

[MOPO] Whoa! What opportunities!

[Freeman Fisher]

Between  Heritage, Bonhams, Bruce Hershenson  and dealers improving their 
stock,  the potential to expand one’s poster collection with historic finds has 
never been greater than it is right now.  Amazing!

So why when I look in my wallet it hasn’t expanded equally?

Re: [MOPO] Why are there no million dollar movie posters?

I think all my posters are worth a million bucks.   I just charge far less 
because I want to make them affordable to all and play nice.

Re: [MOPO] Song Of Bernadette

[Freeman Fisher]

I actually went to Heritage's office in Beverly Hills to take a look at the 
Rockwell painting and other great pieces of illustrated art (including a Giger 
that was incredible)
In person I was stunned at the size because so many examples of original poster 
art I have found to be surprisingly small, tiny even.  But more so
the detail was mind blowing,  no  catalog photo can capture for example the 
painstaking cross stitching of the muslim fabric of the dress.   Jone's face
was as fine as any Botticelli.   

Really anyone that is sitting on a couple or three 30's horror posters ought to 
cash out and buy some real art.  Call me first though.

Re: [MOPO] Francis Bacon painting sells for $142 million

[Freeman Fisher]

Let's be honest here guys,  everything goes better with Bacon.
Plus it was three paintings so kind of a bargain for the price.   Kind of like 
Christies was
following Bruce's lead on Sunday bulk lot deals.  One price gets you all these  
things!

[MOPO] Maltese Falcon Sells For !#@& Of Money

[Freeman Fisher]

Bonham's with the help of Turner Classic Movies had a very impressive auction 
today.  Scripts hit the roof, posters were solid,  costumes pretty great,  but 
one prop kind of knocked it out of the park.

The Maltese Falcon - 4 million and change.

Re: [MOPO] R.I.P. Waldemar Swierzy

[Freeman Fisher]

Thanks for posting the obituary.  I will bet most dealers on MOPO have sold any 
number of his posters, certainly I have sold a couple of his Midnight Cowboys, 
but more so, his absolutely stunning poster for THE LAST EMPEROR. 

Alas, all I could ever afford was a repro of his SUNSET BLVD.  but enjoyed 
having it just the same.

He leaves behind an impressive legacy of work.  RIP

Re: [MOPO] European disadvantage.

[Freeman Fisher]

Tommy,
I was given very solid advice by a sage elder of the business when first 
starting, Kirby McDaniel.  He always recommended even when the snipe services 
or extended bidding time software came into play that you bid exactly what you 
are willing to pay (plus commission if it exists).  That way you stay on budget 
and if you lose it, "just like a city bus another will come  again shortly."

Of course the push back to that is some people still think placing a reserve 
might tempt or engage said operator/owner  of the auction to raise the price to 
meet the dollars one is willing to pay based on the reserve.   I simply don't 
think that happens. It's illegal and I doubt seriously anyone  would risk their 
reputation and legitimacy for and extra  $75 or so dollars.

  surely it is possible to have an earlier closing time. To his credit, Bruce

[MOPO] Harold Ramis Passes

[Freeman Fisher]

Wow.  One does not think (or wish to) think that a director/actor we very much 
think is one of us in generation died today so it is a bit arresting.  But 
Harold Ramis passed away, actor and director of  huge favorites for film fans 
and by default many of his fim's posters including Ghostbusters, Caddyshack, 
the indisputable contemporary classic Groundhog Day, and many others.

[MOPO] Mary Anderson Passes GWTW and LIFEBOAT

[Freeman Fisher]

Another golden age actor  passes.  Given how many of us have collected or sold 
posters from this era, we are witnessing the passing of so many stars that made 
the paper possible.   

That said, Luise Rainer is 104.


Actress Mary Anderson has died at the age of 96. A redheaded native of 
Birmingham, Alabama, Anderson was once a dark horse candidate for the role of 
Scarlett O’Hara in Gone With The Wind. She was invited to audition by the 
film’s original director, George Cukor, who used her in an uncredited bit part 
in The Women(1939). In the end, Cukor was replaced by Victor Fleming, and 
Anderson didn’t get the job. But her first credited role in a motion picture 
was in Gone With The Wind. As a consolation prize, she was cast in the small 
role of Scarlett’s cousin, Maybelle Merriwether. Anderson’s death leaves just 
two surviving cast members of that classic movie: Olivia de Havilland and her 
on-screen son, Mickey Kuhn. 

Anderson went on to roles in All This, And Heaven Too (1940),Cheers For Miss 
Bishop (1941), The Song Of Bernadette (1943),Wilson (1944), and I, The Jury 
(1953). Her most notable movie role may have been in Alfred Hitchcock’s 
Lifeboat (1944), in which she played the stoic nurse who—among other crises—has 
to help restrain a grieving mother whose baby has just been given a burial at 
sea.

Re: [MOPO] Who do you recommend for lobby card restoration?

[Freeman Fisher]

Mopoer's,
Remember any suggestions regarding the use of a new restorer begins with 
talking to the studios themselves.  Based on a past experience, be sure to ask 
if proper insurance while your treasures are in their possession or in transit 
is FULLY COVERED...seems like a basic business issue but then again do you 
really want to be surprised over the loss of a pricey piece?

[MOPO] WalterFilm At LA MODERNISM SHOW

[Freeman Fisher]

THIS WEEKEND ONLY

For those Mopoers  in the LA Area  (and the great ones truly are...) Walterfilm 
has a kick-ass booth in the LA MODERNISM SHOW at the Barker Hanger in Santa 
Monica again TODAY AND TOMORROW.   Once again some great paper on display (Rare 
Hitchcock, Rare Polish, Sci-Fi, Bad Girl, Noir, Marx Brothers and more)  and 
available as well as virtually the entire stock of vintage photos and superb 
lobby cards.   As for the other exhibitors present,  peruse jaw dropping 
displays of dealers in art, furnishings, and decorative arts skewed heavily 
toward astonishing 1940's through 1960's modern on display in the enormous 
hanger under the azure blue skies of Santa Monica complimented by the moderate 
roar of privately owned jets landing and taking off after visiting our booth.

So if not at the TCM Festival, at the Vintage Apparel Show, in line for FAST 
FIVE, or Disneyland, or boarding, or WORKING YOUR GALLERY  ( that would be you 
Sue Heim and Debi Jacobson)  do come by!

This shameless message has been brought to you by two guys  having to stand on 
their feet for 10 hours each day explaining that yes movie posters are great 
sources for decorative arts, that cool people really do collect them and by 
doing so improves one's sex-life exponentially by the money spent on them.

[MOPO] OT: 50 FOOT MUMMY FOUND

[Freeman Fisher]

Even I can't make up some of the shit that happens here in LA


Mummified body of former Playboy playmate Yvette Vickers found in her Benedict 
Canyon home
May 2, 2011 |  2:21 pm
Yvette Vickers, an early Playboy playmate whose credits as a B-movie actress 
included such cult films as “Attack of the 50-Foot Woman” and “Attack of the 
Giant Leeches,” was found dead last week at her Benedict Canyon home. Her body 
appears to have gone undiscovered for months, police said.

Vickers, 82, had not been seen for a long time. A neighbor discovered her body 
in an upstairs room of her Westwanda Drive home on April 27. Its mummified 
state suggests she could have been dead for close to a year, police said.

The official cause of death will by determined by the Los Angeles county 
coroner's office, but police said they saw no sign of foul play.

Vickers had lived in the 1920s-era stone and wood home for decades, and it 
served as the background for some of her famous modeling pictures. But over 
time it had become dilapidated, exposed in some places to the elements.

Susan Savage, an actress, went to check on Vickers after noticing old letters 
and cobwebs in her elderly neighbor's mailbox.

"The letters seemed untouched and were starting to yellow," Savage said. "I 
just had a bad feeling."

After pushing open a barricaded front gate and scaling a hillside, Savage 
peered through a broken window with another piece of glass taped over the hole. 
She decided to enter the house after seeing a shock of blond hair, which turned 
out to be a wig.
The inside of the home was in disrepair and it was hard to move through the 
rooms because boxes containing what appeared to be clothes, junk mail and 
letters formed barriers, Savage said. Eventually, she made her way upstairs and 
found a room with a small space heater still on.

She was looking at a cordless phone that appeared to have been knocked off its 
cradle when she first saw the body on the floor, she said. Savage had known 
Vickers but the remains were unrecognizable, she said.

She remembered her neighbor as an elegant women in a broad straw hat, dressed 
in white, with flowing blond hair and "a warm smile."

"She kept to herself, had friends and seemed like a very independent spirit,"

say..these are unbelievable numbers.

[MOPO] Cliff Robertson Passes

[Freeman Fisher]

Alas many people have snarked about playing the mentally infirm to grab an 
Oscar for years, but if anyone has ever seen "Charly"  where he transcends then 
falls back into his infirm, mental state, it was a performance to remember.

Re: [MOPO] WOODSTOCK Style C Results

Actually I was kind of amused by Todd's rapid fire forensics.  "Birch, Spruce, 
Maple, Hard Pine, Poplar.Hell it read like Helen Keller picking furniture 
at Ethan Allen...

I'll be here all week, don't forget to tip your waitress.

Re: [MOPO] Postman photos- what I got and what was advertized

[Freeman Fisher]

I see the Ebay listing  clearly states no refund (contact seller if item not as 
described)  So the "contact seller part" did he just ignore all emails? Phone 
calls?  In other words how did he  attempt to wiggle out of it Steve.

Nevertheless Amex should come through once explained a US poster photo featured 
versus an AUSTRALIAN ONE SHEET sent to you.

Franc,
Why would Paypal boot Steve off.  He sells on Ebay all the time, has a store 
and everything.  Moves a lot of paper in all price ranges.  Why would Paypal 
boot a valued client?

Re: [MOPO] Lame return reasons

[Freeman Fisher]

Lame returns, I have had 3 or 4 and exactly the same reason

"WIVES"  I  am convinced wives are the greatest threat to our hobby now 
that Haggard is dropping soap in Federal Prison.

Quotes.  "My wife said over her dead body will that poster hang in this house!"
   "The wife said either that poster goes or I go"
   "If you love me even a little you will send that woman hating 
poster back to Freeman"
   and my favorite
   "Dear Mr. Fisher I am returning this poster to you without the 
knowledge of my husband.  I think you understand why"
