Post by: erik1925 on December 26, 2018, 08:44:56 AM

As posted by Dominique Besson on MOPO this morning:


"Very sad news from France,

Stanislas Choko has passed last sunday. He was one of the pioneers of the movie posters business in France, he went a lot of times in New York or Los Angeles for the poster shows and was very appreciate.

Our condolences to Laurence, Garance and Mélanie

Dominique"

That's a really sad news.  I met him several years ago at his store Intemporel in Paris and bought several posters from him over the years.  He was very knowledgeable about the hobby.

Now that's depressing.  His books are invaluable (if a bit dated) resources. Dog's speed to him.
