Re: When the time comes ... how will you sell your collection?
Yes, there is always a large amount of junk in big collections. I have always found it hard to be ruthless and trash the ones posters that are damaged and / or worthless but the mountain of posters just keeps growing.Rick said:I've spent the past 3-4 days trying to file one sheets and I'm not even through the B titles. It's tiring!
Apart from the odd eBay and private sale, I'm not a seller, just a collector but by buying big collections I have ended up with big numbers, including a lot of junk.
A lot of rolled and/or flat one-sheets are going to recycling.
I sent a carload to my in-laws' farm bonfire last year. I doubt i will ever sell 50 copies of Armageddon, A Bug's Life, Big Hit, Austin Powers, Negotiator, etc!
I maintain an excel file, including sales results that I find, so my kids will have some idea of what is worth what. I've also detailed contacts for selling the good stuff.
I'm now 64 and work will probably dry up in the next couple of years, so I will have more time to dedicate to reducing the bulk and removing the rubbish, but I can't see myself unloading one-only copies. i still enjoy going through them, just not the rolled one sheets!
I'd love to buy another big collection, but mainly for good, older, folded stuff.

Re: Hondo's Daybill and One Sheet Q&A [Re-Titled]
I have noticed that at two multiplex cinemas near me that digital poster presentation is now almost exclusively their mode of adverting inside the cinemas these days. The days of paper poster presentations now seem to be from the past
.
A quesion then is this is the case in general everywhere these days?
My next question is are one sheet posters being still printed, and if so are they printed in smaller
numbers?
My final question then is are the latest posters of current releases still easy enough to obtain?

Re: Hondo's Daybill and One Sheet Q&A [Re-Titled]
Do you think it's been restored and the bottom touched up?
Re: Hondo's This And That
Yes well worked out Peter. Astonishing that this film was included as part of a family night screening,dedeposter said:First thing I noticed was "Hitler's Madmen" ......FAMILY NIGHT! That's hilarious.
Secondly, Technicolor is spelt incorrectly.
To those members outside of Australia the spelling of Technicolour is how we do so here. That one I hadn't picked up on though. On saying that I will now mention that there are still two other things of interest yet to be discovered on the poste,r that I have also noticed.

Re: Postage debacle
No one knows yet, and by the time we do know something, it is liable to be changed.dedeposter said:I wonder how this affects consigning posters, for example to Bruce at emovieposter.com? Is there now going to be tariffs paid on the consignment when sent?
The world is in a terrible mess.

Re: Spot The Poster Errors
Well worked out.dedeposter said:Should be Henry Wilcoxon
I am wondering why they didn't use the more well known Andy Devine's name on the poster. It certainly would have fitted in to the blank space allocated very nicely. Was the shorting to Henry Wilco a deliberate act to fit in the allocated available space then?
