Hi Everyone
This is my first proper post to MOPO, after announcing the launch of my
movie poster website, yesterday.
As a seller, I think it is a great idea to put MOPO flyers into every
package I send to somebody.
Also, as a seller, I would be happy to pay the few Pound Sterling it wo

It might be tougher than you think. Remember, these 40x60
heavy card stock posters were intended for use by Drive-In Theaters. Usually
they were posted on big boards along the entrance road leading up to the
ticket booth... often with no protection from the weather. So most of them

Interesting question, particularly about the original 1974 THE WICKER MAN

Hello MoPo'ers:
Due to a vacation and some office remodeling at home, I have been off-

on all the MoPo mail, but I did see a couple of issues I need to
address.
Concerning delivery issues...I have been getting listserv error
Trying to play the game, I'll post a poster related question. Do you believe a DVD release or a film remake can change poster prices? Recently I've seen the alternate Wicker Man style that is the sun symbol and silhouettes beneath it hitting $100 and $150 easily. Is this a reflection of renewed

It's been a busy summer for me so that's why I've not been able to participate on Mopo that often. I think that's the main reason and when we go off-topic for too long.Anyway, I hope all is resolved soon and we can get to talking about posters.ToochisClaude Litton <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: R
Howdy,
The 1991 Ozzy Osbourne cd "No More Tears" should be

'Desire', 'Hellraiser', 'No More Tears', and 'Zombie

but I think it is important for everyone to know.

Personally, I can do without posts about deceased actors, reviews of movies,

Dave,
Sending out "join MOPO" flyers with every poster shipped is an absolutely
OUTSTANDING idea... think of what Bruce alone could do. A practical suggestion
that would actually produce results without having to change anything about the
lists format. I will now enjoy watching the sellers...
Hi, Everyone,
I have about 20 Auctions closing within 3 TO 4 HOURS, many Classic
Titles from the 40's to 50's at GREATLY DISCOUNTED PRICES! Please check
them out if you have a chance!
At these prices, they are definitely a STEAL! Thanks to all,

I don't think that people should be compelled to write for Mopo, but I feel
very strongly (and have said so in the past) that the forum would be better
off if discussions were limited to subjects directly related to our
collecting interests.

The decline in MoPo membership is troubling and I recently talked to Scott

I know that pink stained glass requires an admixture of gold to produce its
color. Might the expense of gold be a reason that inks in these early
posters rarely used the color? Just wondering.
