Title: Hello All!
Post by: William99 on April 03, 2011, 11:47:02 PM: Hello All,

Having used this forum over the past couple of years as a great genuine source of movie poster information I thought it was about time I joined and become more actively involved. I think you guys do a great job keeping this extremely addictive hobby alive and kicking.

My name is William, based in Sydney OZ. Been collecting film paper for about 20 years and am mainly into 007, Kubrick, Horror and 70's/80's cult titles. Oz Daybills, US 1 sheets and UK Quads are my main interests.

Attempting to get a small website up and running this year to show off part of my growing collection.

I look forward to participating on this forum in the future! Regards William :D

Hi Ari, Im Sydney born and bred.

Got hooked on film paper by being a regular at Star's film poster shop in the early 90's at Stanmore.
Since then all get's a little blurry with ebay, emovieposter etc etc. 8)

Post by: Ari on April 04, 2011, 12:23:30 AM: yeah I bought my 1st posters from Stars, 20+ years ago.
Shame we didn't meet earlier, I used to have regular market stalls, but I will be back.

See if you can guess where this is (no hints Steve), me and my stall.

I still see Keith (Star's) from time to time. He's in wind down mode, only dabbles in posters these days.

Well, we can confirm you initially rejected me and Josh repeatedly because of my e-mail and Josh's unusual account name... So that's the three most recent applicants you've doubted. This is an exclusive club!

Welcome William, it's nice to not be the newbie anymore. :D

Yep, Newtown, my old stomping ground.
I haven't seen Keith for ages, last time we spoke his son was doing most of the poster stuff, but just ebay I think.

What about Mal MacDonald?

Post by: William99 on April 04, 2011, 01:24:33 AM: I'm not sure about Mal.

Know of him, but don't know him personally.

Post by: Ari on April 04, 2011, 01:27:34 AM: he had some good stuff. Might see if he is still around, he was ancient before I was born.
