Re: [MOPO] Ten found in a barn lobby cards!
it would be interesting to know the circumstances of the find. found by a non-collector? if by a non-collector, what prompted the finder to think they were worth anything? how did these cards find their way to a dealer or bruce? michael Visit the MoPo Mailing List Web Site at www.filmfan.com ___ How to UNSUBSCRIBE from the MoPo Mailing List Send a message addressed to: lists...@listserv.american.edu In the BODY of your message type: SIGNOFF MOPO-L The author of this message is solely responsible for its content.
Re: [MOPO] Ten found in a barn lobby cards!
Just wondering how this type of damage is repaired? Looks like besides the missing pieces of paper and holes, there is some type of sunlight/heat damage as well. These kinds of finds are very interesting. You hear about old cars that are found in barns, but not so much old movie paper.

Re: [MOPO] Ten found in a barn lobby cards!
I wonder about the ol' boy (or girl) who originally stashed these in the barn. Whoever they were, they had a pretty good eye. --Peter --- On Wed, 1/19/11, John Waldman jhnwald...@yahoo.com wrote: From: John Waldman jhnwald...@yahoo.com Subject: Re: [MOPO] Ten found in a barn lobby cards!
