Oh my... those prices are out of control.  Please, poster God, let me by one of three posters I want.  I'm close to not being able to afford it.

I'm going wine tasting, somewhere with no reception, so I had to bid early.  I just upped something by $4k (from 8k to 12k) and STILL I'm not in the lead.  WTF!!!  I think that might be it for me, can't compete :(

Oh well...

So 2 million dollars the first day.  Is that considered good?  Does anyone keep track of these numbers?

The Argentinean Spanish Dracula sure surprised me. I didn't see that price result coming even close.  Congratulations to your friend, Matias.

P.S. Got one very nice unexpected poster so far at HA today. How are you all doing?  Okie

I always think a fun gauge is to see if the BP at the Heritage Signature is more than the gross at Emovie's "Major", I think this time Emovie might win.

T, that is a stunner. Wow! Congratulations! I didn't even see that one scrolling through the auction or flipping through the catalog. Bravo! Quite the score.

Yeah, it's a fun poster.  It was my backup poster after I lost the one I really wanted.  I've been collecting a few Kubrick posters over the years, so it will fit in nicely.

I'm a big LOSER. I didn't score anything I was after. But that's okay. It leaves me more money (that I don't really have) to spend on Bruce's upcoming auction! Ha!

I was surprised too that the Argentinean Spanish Dracula did this well. I know it's probably the only extant copy, but it's rather crude in its execution.

I only got this country-of-origin, folded example of one of my favorite Bava movies, Black Sunday (1960).

(I wanted to do this earlier when I responded originally...but all I had was my phone and I couldn't figure out how to do it. Ha!)

Thanks again, Bruce

One of the things I like to do is mark all the posters I already own, 95 in this last sale, and see what it all adds up to.  It really doesn’t mean anything since 1) I will never sell, 2) prices are extremely inflated and not real and 3) HA pockets 40% of the sale, but it’s nice to know your collection is worth a little something after all.

T:  What a rarity you won, my friend! Do you know any more specifics about this version of the poster?  The HA description was pretty good, though is there more?  Congrats

Antoine: I watched with much interest the Black Sunday you won.  Very nice poster and art!

I'm very, very happy to have bought the Bordertown Italian 4 fogli as this image by Martinati is just stunning. My best to all, Okie

Thanks Okie.  I don’t think it’s a rarity, but I like the design.  I don’t know much about it, it wasn’t even on my list until I left that morning, but I’m glad I got it.  I would have been more excited if I got the other one, the one I really wanted, but it sold for $20k and I wasn’t ready to spend that.  We’re having a really expensive summer.

Love your poster too.  Very nice!!!  You’ve got a great eye.
