Mid-auction analysis - OMGs!, LOLs!, WTFs!, whatev....

He's just trying to stir the shit.  I don't care what they go for. Really.  I'm happy to have the fuckers out of my way and into someone else's way.

Now, my collection takes up 6 tubes.  That's down FROM 150 FUCKING TUBES (at least).

And I still have 10 flat files that are filled with another 2000 or so posters that will go eventually, when I can dig them out from behind my secretary's desk that's blocking the drawers.

Man, I am SO over it!

So will you be letting the 'Lily' Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus poster go any time soon?

Yeah, right after pigs fly out of his ass.

I think Dale was joking.

It doesn't matter if Holiday sells his entire collection.  It is still one B1 per film available and it only takes one collector off the market.  The rest will continue looking for these posters until they die.

A little dense.... nothing new there....

There are a lot of Japanese collectors still out there, and I think the demand is still high on the good stuff. The question is, what's the good stuff these days?

[holiday]

Ah.... NO.

Lily is in the top 5 of my collection.  She'll hit the market  when I dead.

you forget.. one less competitor results in fewer bids results in lower selling price

Well, one less competitor on the lower tier stuff....

I agree, but just the fact that we are talking about it right now is exposure and probably added 2 or 3 lur-kers into the mix.

You can't see this thread unless you are logged in... 

Oh and Japanese posters suck btw:

-you have to buy special frames
-get a Japanese translator
-they are never first release (believe me!)
-latch on to people to find them for you
-beg Holiday to let you win one (wait,  )

This is the Lily poster .. Only one of 3 that I know of that made it into the wild ..

[holiday]

It is simply one of the finest posters every, I think.  Ultimate rarity.   Superb beauty.  Everything a unicorn is all about.  I'm very fortunate to get to keep her for awhile.  Sooner or later, she will move on into the sweaty palms ... er. ... hands of another collector....

Ohhhhhhhhh ahhhhh

I understand now. I can see why you all love it so much!

Can someone explain to me the apparently obvious?

Apologies and thanks in advance.

The young lady on The Imaginarium one sheet is not James Bond, and it's not vintage.

You're welcome.

[Neo]

That one for The Imaginarium is rad.

Let me guess .. you still havent framed it yet have you!?

[holiday]

I have, but not professionally.  It's in a basic frame.  She has spent a lot of time on the wall.  We all walk by when she's on the wall and say "Hi Lily!".  We moved recently, so she's in the closet now....

That makes me

Haha!

Am actually being serious...

Please remember also I was slow to catch on with the 'towers' in some Disney picture poster, in case this is related.

Interesting to see these Educations going for this much. I have always loved the artwork on the Educational's from this period:

Oh I know.  My "ha ha" was more a reflection of your bluntness (and the fact I have the same thoughts generally)

It reminds me of The Garden of Earthly Delights  by Bosch.

To me its  design and overall aesthetic appearance merits my time. Worth looking at it. Though I know that this discussion is redundant.

Agree. Though I have an issue with the title. Don't like the "my lilly her willie" ..nah
