Thanks, Sean. Interesting.
What might you know about these other things 'cabmangray' said about his ethics concerning collectors loaning him posters, image rights, etc?
Anything you can recall?

Great insight and story there, Sean.

Thanks for passing it on.

Matt insisted he would only accept cash, after that didn't work, he finally got the guy to do something like 100 $9,000 money orders and $10,000 cash.

WoW he must be quite a character and eccentric. Great story! Will try to read more about him. Thanks for sharing

Thinking this part may be a bit off topic for this thread and better posted in its own.

Maybe a bit, but we are talking about a Star Wars poster collection for sale by a dealer whose rep has been brought into question.

I don't know who Mrs Miniver is, and frankly I couldn't care less (not overly impressed really), but he obviously doesn't want to sell his gear. So why even post it?

I'm sure you guys have all seen this already, but it belongs in the thread.

Saw that show when it aired...Harrison looks so confused and bewildered. Looks like he is tapping back into that Hollywood Homicide magic again...

Mirosae · « **Reply #1508 on:** April 27, 2015, 06:07:58 PM »

that is quite amazing...

brude · « **Reply #1509 on:** April 27, 2015, 08:08:33 PM »

Hadn't seen it and I absolutely loved it.
Thanks, T.

Not a comforting thought when preparing to jump to light speed. Computers don't fail us now.

My computer shows 22 rows of 7 posters (+1) for a total of 155. Correct? Doubling that will be tough, but if anyone can do I'm guessing it would be you!

eatbrie · « **Reply #1513 on:** May 04, 2015, 04:09:54 PM »

I don't know, but I have a list of 80 posters I need to get NOW!!!!

Mirosae · « **Reply #1514 on:** May 04, 2015, 04:47:14 PM »

I heard today was SW day
Now I know why.. oh... ufff

Enjoy your day

Undead · « **Reply #1515 on:** May 04, 2015, 07:01:39 PM »

Probably more than that T, there are at least seven style A one sheets alone almost half of the twenty or so US standard one sheets I can think of. If you want to be a SW completest you may need to work harder.

Rosa, good luck, grab them now before they go nuts in a month or two. Let em know if I can help in any way.

When I get the first section of the id site up it will have the US theatrical posters at least through six sheet listed if not 24 sheet listed for the first three movies. After that is done I will likely do foreign before moving back to commercial and Episode I-III posters. Hopefully it will be helpful to you.

eatbrie · « **Reply #1516 on:** May 04, 2015, 07:08:55 PM »

No, I won't do that. I have 2 or 3 styles of A. That's plenty. I'll stick to one copy of each style.

Not being a Star Wars person, I am asking myself if this is truly considered the first SW paper collectible.

Seems a bit of a reach to me bearing in mind the film is not even referenced.

Yeah that's a nice marketing stretch by HA

Undead · « **Reply #1519 on:** May 05, 2015, 10:17:12 AM »

I personally would not consider it that though it is a cool piece. Wonder how much it will go for and how much it would have gone for if it were not advertised that way.

eatbrie · « **Reply #1520 on:** May 05, 2015, 10:47:41 AM »

A very smart way to advertize even though it has absolutely nothing to do with Star Wars. How about advertizing High Plains Drifter as the movie that hit theaters a mere 2 days after Lucas began writing The Star Wars. April 17, 1973 vs April 19, 1973. Now, that's relevant.

HA seems to be selling a lot of SW posters lately. One born every minute.

Peanuts?

It's surprisingly already at $79 with BP.
