I wondered the same thing.

From the description, referencing the mild crossfold separations, it was probably best to have it backed and stabilized.

And if it sells at the BIN price, that's a nice profit of just under $4300.00 in a few months' time.

who knows, but considering finds of material I have made over the decades, they could have a pile as it would be most likely the original source that led these to the attic where they were found was involved in a theatre or film distribution.

Abbott and Costello posters are going under the hammer for a good price.

And I wonder how, I wonder why  ....if anyone could bother to tell me why are they collectibles?

It is just a question to see if anyone cares to enlightening  me.  I went this afternoon to a Gallery and noticed they had lots of Abbotts and I just don't get it. I fully understand that collecting is something really personal, what is rubbish to you, it is precious to me. Perhaps this is a rethorical question? I bet it is. But I am one of those who ...wonders why.

So, here is looking at you kid - can you let me know...

Goes without saying that I mean no offence. If you are bidding, you love them etc ..I just thought i could ask..

that's all.

 :D

It is because they are American comedy/film icons.

For me personally, they were my favorite weekend mid day/ afternoon movie entertainment as a kid.

Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein is still one of my favorite movies and gets at least one yearly play in my house.  

I wish they were universally regarded as poopy, I would have a party.  ;D

I prefer Laurel and Hardy as a comedy team, but Abbott and Costello did meet Universals Monsters.... :D

Where was the Gallery Rosa, and were any for sale?
