"AUTHENTIC MOVIE POSTERS HAVE BEEN KNOWN TO POSSESS INVESTMENT POTENTIAL,
AS WELL AS BEING ATTRACTIVE CONVERSATIONAL DISPLAYS AND DECORATIVE ITEMS".

I have been collecting and selling movie posters for over 40 years. In 1973, I was walking down Hollywood Boulevard and decided to browse Larry Edmond's book store. At the back of the store was a counter displaying some movie posters.
I had been a big fan of movies from the age of 7 and I had no idea at all that I could actually obtain posters from my favorite stars or films. I purchased my very first poster in that book store called "Bowery to Bagdad" starring Leo Gorcey and the Bowery Boys.
From this humble beginning, my collection grew to thousands of posters, as I would travel all over the country, visiting movie theatres , searching their closets and storage areas.
My collection ranges from the 1920's through the 1990's, with the majority being the 60's, 70's, 80's and 90's.
