Something has happened....
« on: February 16, 2019, 08:39:25 PM »
Hi Everyone :)

I cannot say how this happened, except that I was in conversation with another collector recently about some Japanese posters in my remaining collection, and something shifted in me and I realized that I'm ready to get back into the game, albeit at a MUCH MUCH MUCH more controlled level (Thierry....).

I received my first tube of posters in probably 5 years (?!?!), from Japan, and I gotta say, what a trip down memory lane it was just receiving the tube, opening it, and smelling (yes, smelling) authentic Japanese movie posters. There is nothing like them.

Anyway, I'm committed to pulling and rephotographing what is left of my collection, and I'm excited to be in contact with them again. They have been in storage all of this time.

More to come....
Best regards,

Holiday

Thierry to Silhouette:  Please tell her it's a tiny part of my collection so she doesn't think I'm a total creep.  Oh wait, no, I am a total creep.

Woo hoo!  Ok quality over quantity this time. I take that back...You always have quality so maybe less quantity this time around like you said. But anyways welcome back and have fun revisiting the core collection. Hope I had a small part in sparking up the poster bug.

I think it all started when you visited me a month ago and realized how little room 15,000 posters take when you are organized.  The lack of organization made your collection overbearing and led you to call it quits.  Am I wrong?  No posters or tubes to be seen throughout the house, everything perfectly tucked away, yet in your hand within 5 minutes.  It can happen.

Then whatever Jason said that I couldn't to finish the job.

Welcome back, loser.

Good to see you back and in the poster collecting game once again, Holiday!

And I agree with you, 100%. Quality over quantity - any day of the week.  notworthy.gif thumbsup.gif
