I agree with that completely. He really is a true gent.
I too couldn't afford those DKR teasers but AFO generously offered to trade and i still think i am in his debt.
Those together with a much wanted TDK int. one sheet really made my day when they came through unscathed.

It's a pity the posters were better than the film.


I did buy an Aliens teaser one sheet but i can't find it as i have been selling off my collection for the last 4 or 5 months, but it's here someplace.

Thanks Ted and Dave,I am still grateful that Holiday Bring me to this forum and I have the chance to make friends with such good people like Ted and Dave, Ted,Your Pan's Labyrinth posters really make me envy.
These are my Favorites for 2012,nowhere compared to the rest of you,but do allow me to show my few humble posters

The Les Miserables character posters are very nice, Tom.
Is the DARK KNIGHT a one-sheet or smaller? 
Great to see you out here and posting!

Chris, I do not sell, ever.  So I would have been stuck with two copies.  Might as well have someone else enjoy it.

Ok well then it only matters what you traded it for then or the perceived value of the 'services' you received for giving it up

The year is ending...  It's time to show off your gear.  I bought just about 1,200 posters in 2012, from Justin Bieber to my mega rare French Gone With the Wind.  In no particular order, here are my favs.  Not necessarily the most expensive (although there are some expensive pieces), just the ones that mean the most to me.


SHOW US YOURS!!!

How time flies... Bieber was so much younger then...

GWTW never grows old!!  clap clap clap clap

I had to go to page 1 to see what the fuck you were talking about.  I forgot about most of these posters.  They are buried now, underneath 3 years of new crap, never to be seen again.

So sad.

You know your collection is serious when all of the other collectors in your circle would agree unanimously that upon your passing, if it hits the auction block, it will be a "named collection".  If it happens, yours will surely hit the market as the "Bxxxx collection"

Deep, deep, deep.  But ultimately good for preservation and good for the folds.

I'm curious T what do you do when foxing starts to appears on your mint posters?  I know you aren't big on linenbacking, but would you send it out for a wash?  Maybe deep within the vault some are foxing up as we speak...

[Controversy alert]
I don’t mind foxing that much, in fact I rather keep it if the overall health of the poster is good. There.. i said it...

No foxing, man.  One of the MANY perks of living in Southern Cal.  Very little humidity.  If I was living in, say, Florida, the story would be different, but thank GOD I am not.

You're both so close but I believe truly it is the offspring of Bieber and one of the One Direction lads...
