One simple suggestion to you is to get a site that doesn't give you
three pop-up windows on every page you visit. These are

Sometimes the best poster find doesn't relate to dollar value at all
I think all the truly best finds have been
well documented and salt rubbed into every collectors open wound.
Any buy you get at half of market value
today is a find, whether it is a $5 poster of a $500,000 poster. Ebay has
opened the eyes of every joe six-pack, whether it be the hot

Hi from Joe B in NOLA.I think my best "find" was running across a lobby card from 1935 on Ebay one day about four years ago. I paid $35.00 and, though I don't know the exact worth, I suspect it was a real bargain.The picture is the 1935 Max Rheinhard'd "A Midsummer Night's Dream"and on the
ea of what their "real" monetary value might be. I just like
'em.

I have probably
overpaid for most of my posters, since theyve been acquired in the
ebay-age. I dont have any of the great finds at an antique store
or garage sale.

Original Spellbound one sheet for $6.00. Now, of course, it was 1974,
but I also bought Funny Lady with Barbra Streisand at the same time for $6.00

in the folder,but I was a poor college student and only bought one
I found two folded copies (unused) of the one-sheet advance for ET
(space ship coming through clouds) in the old Cinema Shop in San
Francisco. Bought them for about $30. each. I don't know what they
sell for now but even then (around 1990), that was a good price!
