We initially introduced the LAMP State and Country Travel Maps as a platform to provide a quick reference for movie poster collectors and dealers to use while traveling the U.S. and World. Over the past two months, these individual map pages have quickly become some of the most popular areas on the LAMP.

Due to this increased visitor interest, we are expanding the maps in a number of ways.

INDIVIDUAL MAPS WILL BE EXPANDED TO INCLUDE NEW INFORMATION

To reach out to movie buffs as well as movie poster collectors, we will be adding more information that we know will be of interest to movie lovers. In addition to the locations of LAMP dealers, suppliers, service operations, etc., the following information will be included on all of our LAMP Travel Maps:

Born in (individual state/country): A listing of movie actors and actress born in that state/ country.

Movies Made (individual state/country): A listing of the films shot in or partially shot in that state/country.

Trivia From (individual state/country): Movie or celebrity trivia from that state/country.

What's in (individual state/country): Museums, exhibits and other attractions of interest to movie fans.

Check out the new Texas map -- the first online with these new changes. These changes will be incorporated into all other state and country maps over the next few weeks.

NEW INEXPENSIVE ADVERTISING PROGRAM FOR LAMP-QUALIFIED DEALERS

This new Business Listing Program allows for LAMP-approved dealers and suppliers to have their names listed on our LAMP Travel Maps. This program was designed to allow reputable dealers with limited budgets to let the thousands of collectors who visit LAMP each day know who they are and where they are located.

For as little as $50.00 per year, reputable dealers, suppliers and service companies can participate in LAMP as a LAMP approved dealer. (LAMP Dealer requirements APPLY).

BIG NEWS FROM ....

Emerson Stevens, Director of Hollywood Memorabilia, has announced that over the next few weeks, Rotman Auction will be having a huge movie poster clearance sale.

Emerson explains that Rotman needs to sell off a large portion of their inventory in a short period of time to make room for new stock. This is a great opportunity for dealers and collectors alike.

This is not an individual poster sale and is not on ebay. Rotman is looking for anyone interested in making bulk purchases direct from their collection. Prices are negotiable, and of course, the more you buy, the more you will save.

Don't let this great opportunity pass you by -- contact Emerson for more information.
