We want to welcome our newest sponsor:

Movie Poster Service - Movie Poster Service has the oldest and largest collection of movie posters in the world. In 1973, Cleophas Wooley purchased the first independent poster exchange in the nation from his then father-in-law, Bob Smith, who started the exchange. Cleophas changed the name to Movie Poster Service, and he and his new wife Lou Ann continued to serve theaters for many years. As the theater play dates changed, and collector appreciation increased, Movie Poster Service became collector oriented, offering over one million pieces of the best condition movie posters, lobby cards, pressbooks, and other movie memorabilia in the world today. For more information, check out their website HERE.
