Wow...I didn't realize there were so many films in that series. I kind of lost 
track of them in the mid'70s...
thanks for the impressive exhibit!

Let me add my congratulations to those you've already received.
I 'll bet that most of us who are still on the list are glad that MoPo still 
exists and that contacts with other obsessive collectors can still be easily 
made. It's true that some of the discussions and topics being discussed are a 
bit thinner than they have been in the past...after all, we have lost some 
significant voices, and there other voices who post much less frequently  ( I 
miss hearing from Steve Olson, Michael Tupy, Dario Casadei, and that lawyer 
named Claude who was so smart and tart). I myself post less frequently, partly 
because I am getting old and really have to bring my collecting days to a 
close. At present, I am more interested in selling my posters and have begun 
the process of thinning out and breaking up my collections.
Yet, you still have a very interesting bunch of people who remain on the list. 
So much so that I never ignore the posts of the current members. I read them 
all, and am especially interested when someone sends along information, or 
links, on various subjects of general interest...new catalogues, auctions that 
go beyond the sphere of the online world, articles and illustrations about 
posters in new books or websites, museum exhibitions, and so forth. And I love 
it when John Reid posts one of his "galleries" of posters in his possession...a 
'themed presentation' that is almost always really interesting. ( It's time for 
another one, John!)
My point is that even after 20 years and a new configuration of 'active 
posters" and "lurkers", there is still much to be interested by on MoPo, and I 
am so glad that it is still around and so glad to have the opportunity to reach 
out to other members if and when I might need them.
so...THANKS FOR STICKING IT OUT!!

Subject: [MOPO] 20 Years of MoPo!
To: MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDUWell we made it to 20 after all! Today marks 
MoPo’s 20th Anniversary. For the last couple of years, our anniversary has been 
preceded by a discussion about how little we actually discuss posters on this 
forum. This year it was John Reid’s February 12th post, “How MoPo has Changed,” 
pointing out the lack of discussion or comment on movie posters. In 2014, in 
time for our 19th birthday, Helmut posted an analysis of MoPo posts (84% were 
either auction or for sale posts) and former member Bruce H. mentioned how 2 
other poster forums are pretty dead. I find it just an interesting coincidence 
that this seems to happen just about every February 24th! But no matter…MoPo is 
still chugging along. We’ve survived longer than I ever dreamed (much longer 
than the majority of Hollywood marriages). On February 24, 1995 the first 
official MoPo post was distributed via American University’s listserv. There 
were 11 members at the start, and as is my annual custom, I recognize these 
MoPo pioneers:  Mahtab Moayeri, Michael Danese, Rob Ellis, Donna Tschetter, Goh 
Kai Shen, Evan Zweifel, George Nichol, Cindy Nemeth-Johannes (we lost Cindy in 
2008, but her husband Jay is still a member), Jeff Static (AOL’er Static555), 
Adam Ehrlich and myself. In addition to Jay, Michael, Rob and Evan are still 
members. Last year I wondered whether MoPo would make it to 20, or if it even 
should. Well, here we are and I guess we’ll soldier on…at least until American 
University decides to shut down their listserv! I do hate to see longtime 
members leave, (Poster seller Bruce Hershenson and the prolific Tom Martin are 
2 examples of people who exited this past year), but that’s the way of Internet 
forums.  Thanks to all of you for keeping this relic of the 20th century alive 
for yet another year! ScottMoPo List Owner   To unsubscribe from the MoPo-L

That's right, although the artwork is sometimes re-drawn with greater  or 
lesser success. There are some with unique artwork too, Carry  On Screaming 
and Carry On Cleo come to mind.

  Hi John,

  Tom Chantrell did some of the early 60s ones, then Renato Fratini starting 
with Don't Lose Your Head (I think) until 1972, when Arnaldo Putzu took over. 
If you have any particular titles in mind, I can probably confirm.
