Re: New Members, Please Introduce Yourself!
Hey All, this is Dave near Philadelphia. I’m new to the movie poster arena and am pleased to have found this forum.
I have been buying things at auction and selling on eBay for about 2 years. Seemed like a good idea when I started, although it’s kind of taken over my house and my life!
In any case, along the way I’ve picked up several movie posters - Gaslight was my first; Tomb of Ligeia; Monster on the Campus - French & German version; Tea & Sympathy; Brazil; Bus Stop (French = “Arrete d’Autobus” may be amusing - yet Marilyn remains striking); Lost in Alaska (Abbott & Costello); etc. And a slew a lobby cards. And some photo plays. In other words, a hodgepodge! Partly driven by nostalgia, some by a vague sense of investment. Mostly having fun.

I look forward to the communication and sharing here. I’m always curious to learn more!

Very interesting information, I am glad I was able to restore back to its original condition.

Re: Yeah, so, I am watching this..,
It would be great to own all of those box sets. The Powell & Pressburger set has some top titles, but it doesn't contain my favourite film of theirs I Know Where I'm Going. Just love this film and always fondly remember the beautiful version of the title song sung briefly at the end of the film. For anyone who may not have viewed this film I do thoroughly recommend for you to check it out.

Re: The Horror Quiz
O.k. time is up for the 341 answer to be revealed to be Doctor Blood's Coffin from 1961. Surprised indeed that from my Hazel Court clues that the answer wasn't found.

I do not have a question, but did want to share. I just bought this recently off your site, and restored it, it looks great for a poster that was in rough shape.
Thanks

Re: Questions for Bruce-EMP
I understand what you are saying but I think that is exactly what google wants - everyone using Chrome and gmail. I have concerns about the amount of control google has over business and this is just another example of where things are going.Bruce said:Peter
After decades of trying to make our site view correctly on all browsers, we are going to more actively push for regular users to start using Chrome (either solely for our site, or for all browsing).
The same goes for emails. The oldest emails are the worst (hotmail, yahoo, and a few others) and now the microsoft domains have started blocking emails from small companies like ours. We have tried working with them for decades, but the far better solution is for our customers to get a gmail account (either solely for our site, or for all emailing).
Switching to Chrome and gmail will almost surely solve any problems, not just with us, but with almost all smaller businesses.
