hi everybody!
i figured it common courtesy to introduce myself before bombarding you all with my ignorance. i'm peter, rather new to this form of collecting and currently a college student in nyc. being such, my discretionary income is rather limited resulting in what amounts to a rather meager collection at this point. also, my interest lies solely in the golden age (30s to maybe early 60s) and that stuff ain't cheap.
anyway, i only buy things from particular movies or actresses that i like (gene tierney!), so that'll keep it naturally slim for some time if i'm lucky. some of my wants? original fred and ginger things, a brief encounter poster ('45, they seem to be rather scarce, and the lobby cards plain as hell, so i'll be fine with a rr), and most specifically, a funny face ('57) frnch grande, which i plan on buying as soon as it hits an auction.
i stumbled upon this site a few weeks ago reading the large diy backing thread (trust me, i have no interest in doing it myself), and am sure that it'll be a tremendous aid to me in the future. what i can't add in the form of constructive comments, i'll be sure to make up with simpleminded and unintelligent questions...kidding, i won't be that bad.
thanks!
