Movie Memorabilia
 
Hey you!

Do you have movie memorabilia? Anything that reminds you of your favorite movies? Or even a piece of the set or some kind of prop used in the film?

All I have is a few posters, some pins and patches and just a few fur toys. I'll post the photos on the weekend since classes already started so I don't have a lot of time during the week.

What do you have? What would you want if you could pick anything?

I'm not really into memorabilia of any kind, but having something from The Blues Brothers would be cool:cool:

Some posters...a replica of Jason's hockey mask and a replica of the gas mask from Dead Man's Shoes. Other than that, a couple of posters, and an Italian 70's gory film composer.

I collect all kinds of stuff including little PVC figures of some of my favorite characters, toys, dolls, bobbleheads, statues, and movie posters. They're all over the house.

By order: Reservoir Dogs, E.T. and Pulp Fiction (with 156cm).

Also have Chewbacca from Star Wars and Mr. Big from Zootopia (just because of the Godfather scene obviously :p ). Also have some from McDonalds ahah They're from the movie The Secret Life of Pets.

Can't take a picture but I also have The Godfather t-shirt and also Mario Puzo's book The Godfather (O padrinho in portuguese).

Not much but in the future I'd like to expand this "collection" of random stuff :D

Wow you seem to have tons of stuff :o Can you tell me some of the PVC figures?

That's the dream, to have the entire house with all kind of merchandise and figures and posters and everything! :D

I've had an Eraserhead poster on sale on ebay forever and no one is buying it. I don't get it. I had it as cheap as $150. These previously sold for $!200 and are rare as hens teeth. The movie poster market took a hard crash after ebay arrived. Nobody realized how much of this stuff was out there. I just saw a 3-piece standee for "The Green Slime" on auction. Who would have thought someone had that stashed in his closet for four decades!

eBay killed the collectible market. If you're willing to sell it for a reasonable price, you might want to shop it around to some comics and/or collectible stores in your area, or the vendors at a comics/collectible show. They won't pay top dollar because they're buying it for resale, but you'll probably get a decent price for it, and maybe even a little bit more if you're willing to make a trade for other merchandise.

I buy most of this stuff at garage sales, flea markets, and toy deals, so they're very cheap. Most of the small figures cost me less than 25 cents each, and the larger items, (most large items are not in those pictures), cost me about $1 - $5 each.

The trick is to marry someone who also collects stuff. Hubby collects comic books, statues, and collectible baseballs. Here are a few pictures of his collection:

That's amazing! You know you have a lot when you have to put posters on the ceiling. Most of my collection is in storage, I recently moved.

Our combined collection is all over the house, in the office, with some stuff in the attic, in storage, and in the warehouse. We have some posters on the ceilings because we have shelves with stuff all over the walls. Here's a picture of part of my Marvin the Martian collection:

We sell this kind of stuff on eBay and at collectible shows. That's how we started selling. We were both collectors, and we realized that we could get better prices on stuff if we bought it wholesale in bulk, and just kept what we wanted for our collections, and sold the rest.

Here are a couple more pictures of some of my other collectible stuff:
