Hi Folks,
I've got 30 lots of 1930s lobby cards ending on eBay today.
The majority of these were found under a floor, so condition is pretty
terrible, but there are some pretty rare titles. Please have a look:
If they stop producing posters, I think collecting will definitely be affected.
I think one of the reasons that there are few new collectors coming into this
hobby, is that Lobby Cards have stopped being produced(with some exceptions)
and displayed in theaters, since 1985.

Zeev -
Around Los Angeles there have been these huge screen billboards where the
picture changes every few seconds. The public HATES them. And I believe there
is a moratorium on them. That would signify the end of larger size posters for
sure. However, I can definitely see their use in movie
Glenn,
I wouldn't be surprised if digital posters replace the paper ones, but if
they do, where would new collectors get the idea to collect moovie paper?
As for LCs vs OS, its highly personal a choice, and I don't want to get into
this discussion. Suffice it to say that in movie memorabilia
Zeev,
Both points taken, it might or might not hurt the hobby. As for me,
I was after 1 Sheets like Glenn. LC's were a find after I was
collecting 1Sheets so I don't think it's a
black and white issue. The advent of digital displays may dilute the
new collectors but the scarcity may

yes Bruce, BLB's are also part of the historical lexicon of
collecting. As a matter of fact, BLB's and Pulps have the same
problem: only comic book collectors have an interest in them due to
the tie between the 3 hobbies.
But pulps are in worse shape than BLBs by virtue of % of issues
My 5 kids (age 4-15) read EC comics because their dad and grandpa reprinted
all of them, but otherwise they never read a single comic book.
But all but the 4 year old are champions on every kind of video game, and
they have every kind of system, and so does just about every other kid in
this
I must be confused, because I really only started collecting pulps
about 4 months ago. I did have a few pulps that I bought many years
ago, but I did not really pay much attention to pulps until recently.
In August, a friend gave me a ticket to the local Science Fiction

I don't understand. Soon, paper will be rarely used. At least, used
much less often. Would that not make antique paper items all the more
rare? Stamps, posters, autographs... shouldn't we restore, protect,
and give high regard to these items? In my experience, if it's about

I agree that the continuing production of contemporary film posters is VITAL to
luring newbies into the hobby and thus sustain the industry. These new posters
are the marijuana of the movie poster world, which lead - as sure as night
follows daybills - onto the stronger, vintage stuff.

part of the problem, I believe is while everyone (most) like watching movies,
most people dont LOVE movies. your average person wants to watch the latest

Why do people pay 3 x or more to rent a NEW RELEASE over the many thousands of

I agree with everything you guys've said so far, but think there will be some
areas where there will be holdouts in poster collecting.
First of all, I think horror as a genre will continue to be very heavily
collected for some time to come, though as time goes by the field will be
narrowed to
Of course I am too close to this to possibly be in the slightest objective,
but I think the movie poster hobby transcends baseball cards and comic
books, and even coins and stamps, in a special way.
If you didn't grow up with baseball cards or comic books, or if you didn't
catch the coin or stamp
Netflix etc never took off here,
generaly new releases (here/Australia) are $7 per night, weeklies you prob get
7 for $10 a week.

One interesting - but likely temporary - roadblock to all this
