T is old school like that.  Reading on the shitter - is there a better way to pass the... time? 

Are you REALLY sure you want that answer, Vick?

"How do they top this"....

Agree Rich. So have a pick...which poster will be the next biggie. . A never seen Metropolis?

who knows Rosa.. it doesn't have to be a horror/sf item
what if an original broadside was found for the Great Rain Robbery, or a poster for the flickie "the Kiss" from 1897?
an original one sheet for Cavalcade would create some excitement in certain corners
if an original German poster for Nosferatu came up would be a real coup

Heritage without questions uncovers the greatest material the market has seen over the last 13 years since they started selling posters. It makes you wonder "what's next?" and "how do they top this?"

So very true....And I love how they reach that reality in so many areas..its not just the spectacular Universal horror large format paper...one auction its the only Duck Soup half sheet...then its a mint set from The Golem...then its the Mad Love title card....then its the first Thin man one sheet...then the only Snow white 24 sheet...the first auctioned sets of classic short silent Keaton lobby cards...the first set of Dr. Jeckyll jumbo lobby cards...the first Public Enemy One Sheet....it's a great time to be collecting!!

Done.  That one was quick.  Some good stuff there, to be sure.  Like it has been said before, Heritage certainly has the best stuff around.

I am after 20 posters, 5 I will really go after hard.  Anyone else?

Good luck bidding T.  20 is a good number. I want just one.. Though I doubt I will get it.

Aside from the obvious blockbusters, my faves are the WOTW one and half sheets, Fistful of Dollars Teaser style B 1 sh (it is very cool), Lawrence of Arabia (one of my favorite films of all time), On the Waterfront 4F (check my avatar!), Both Howard Chandler Christys obviously, Bus Stop double crown which is the nicest Monroe poster i have seen in a while, Join ATS, New York Worlds Fair (the one with the lady), Affair in Trinidad, San Quentin, Flying Ace, Don Q...the empire strikes back radio promo is nice too.  I will bid on none of these except maybe for one I have not listed here for fear one of you b*stards will take it from me!

This might be my longest Heritage watch list ever - and a few I will also go after very hard.
Perhaps the best all-around auction Heritage has ever put together.

Same here. I really wish i had a deeper pocket. It will be the first time I will need to keep a proper eye on the Sig Sunday auction (good news no audio there!)

Lucky.  The bearded guy is great, but there is a woman who is so annoying I have to turn the sound off.

Sometimes ...Once in a while..one comes across a poster that it is so full of life that one must stop and watch. Every inch of this paper is worth a thousand smiles. It is childhood, Saturday afternoon tv play all over again. And boy. That man was really a piece of art.

I would kill for that one too. Maybe we can postpone the wedding so I could buy it..... on second though, better not ask, I like my private parts attached.

LOL.. good idea, Mike.

And yes.. that is a beauty.. not even a question. His look and pose just knocks it out of the park for me, too!

Martinati at his finest, although I wouldn't mind some chicks on this poster.  Too many dudes for my taste.  Where is Olivia?

If John Bobbit has taught us anything it is that they can be reattached!  What kind of collector are you if not willing to go through some grafting?
