Re: What do you think about the rising prices of movie posters ?

Oh ! Sorry, I didn't see the last character was a ")", I would fixed it myself, so I don't bother you with something so simple. I use your website very often, I got a lot of posters and lobby cards from you in the last year

And, now, As I promised last week, I made a simple Windows Program in my spare time so I can check the change in prices. I have only a few movies in the list, but is a start

Some screenshots :

Now I can see some things more clearly. like "fine" posters sometimes only appear at first, maybe they are not so "fine" later on or maybe don't appear in the website again. Cheers !

Re: "Obey your Husband" (Anchor Film, 1928). Fine. Lobby Card

O.k. you have put me on the spot, I will say if it was mine I would leave it as it exactly as it is untouched.

Re: "Obey your Husband" (Anchor Film, 1928). Fine. Lobby Card

One other fact is that the distributor Anchor Film Distributors, Incorporated were only active between circa 1922 and circa 1929.

Regarding your question about thoughts on cleaning and small restoring I will leave that to the experts in this field to respond to you.

Re: "Obey your Husband" (Anchor Film, 1928). Fine. Lobby Card

Beautiful looking lobby card, and in very nice condition considering its age. The film ran only 60 minutes which was common in the silent days. Super rare, and on searching I am unable to locate any other original poster material for this film. Thanks for sharing.

It is my "gift" to the hobby. What is funniest is how many of the "Hershenson haters" use it ALL the time!

Re: Questions for Bruce-EMP

A big change at eMoviePoster.com! Our auction that runs from August 16th to September 3rd will be our very last "every four week" auction!

THEY WILL BE REPLACED (9 days later) WITH OUR NEW "MONTHLY" AUCTIONS!

This is not a giant change (12 sets of auctions a year compared to the old 13), but it WILL take some "getting used to"!

OUR AUCTIONS EVERY MONTH (starting in September) WILL ALWAYS END ON THE VERY FIRST TUESDAY OF THAT MONTH (with the other two sets of auctions ending the Thursday and Sunday directly afterwards).

This results in 4 times a year of there being NO auctions at all for 9 days (compared to the current 2 days, which still happens the other months).

To make it easy to see how this works, we have updated our Auction calendar (at the left of our Home Page) to reflect these changes.

And you'll notice that we added all the dates for 2027. I am committing to next year, but with the likelihood that starting 1/1/2027 we will raise our minimum value to $100 (from the current $50).

Having 9 days off 4 times a year may SEEM like "no big deal" but if you are an avid collector you can schedule vacations during those times, and not worry about missing ANY auctions!

Re: 2001: A Space Odyssey 40x60 McCall – Genuine 1968 Original Paper or “Just” R-1971? Need Your Expert

Hello Bruce,

It’s a pleasure to meet you. Thank you very much for your thorough assessment — especially since it aligns with my own. 🙂

I will contact Heritage and share my findings with them. I would appreciate it if they would amend the listing, as it is currently “officially” described as a 1971 release… I’m not quite sure how they arrived at 1971 despite the 1974 stamp.

I’ll keep you updated. In the end, this is quite significant when it comes to properly assessing the value of a poster.
