Re: [MOPO] R2D2 Just Sold at Auction

I think there is always a possibility that a print might be found in a foreign archive... we can only hope. It would be great to see, even though reviews from the time described it as a bit dull and slow. maybe all this time later, were a print to be found, audiences might look past the plo

[MOPO] TOD BROWNING Photo Collection

Toochis, you brought up something that I believe no one else did. The TCM auction. That ENTIRE Tod Browning collection of stills was sold within the last year, in just one lot, for I believe under $100,00.00. Looks like Profiles made a good investment and a killing by buying it and breaking

Re: [MOPO] R2D2 Just Sold at Auction

I didn't see any of the paper materials outside of the few framed ones they had on the walls but I was told almost all of the stills in the Browning collection were in excellent condition with the majority of them printed exclusively for Browning's review on gelatin silver double weight with som

Re: [MOPO] R2D2 Just Sold at Auction

Congrats on the win, Paul. And with the cheapest still selling for $4000.00, that truly says something about what the Browning Collection was all about. Were all the stills of the same type (double weight) and wonderful condition? On Jun 29, 2017, at 1:14 PM, Paul W. Hazen wrote: I'm a K

I'm a Kubrick collector mostly so I won the "Lolita" stills lot. Really only needed 2 of the 10 stills but I figure I can turn around the others pretty easily. They had about 250-300 stills and other items from the Browning collection which I think was 157 lots. Probably about 35-40 lots on Fre
