    Default Question for the collectors (the older ones)

    People like Ron Vinion, Bill Slater. Peverto.....

    You guys still collect posters? Any plans for your collection? What is next?

    not sure if i fit the definition of an "older" collector, but I've been doing this for over 10 yrs so i'll play anyway.

    I pretty much just get one or two things a year now and they're usually art prints or paintings. There's still the occasional 90s or early 2000 era poster i'd love to get though.

    wouldn't mind lending or even donating some things to a gallery if i knew they'd take care of them and put them on display for others to see, but i'm skeptical as to other's intentions. what are your plans?

    No plans yet worked out. I need to sit down and drink beers with a few of the 1990's collectors and see whats up

    Not sure if I qualify as I'm pretty niche-oriented.

    I'd still enjoy having a beer or two, though.

    I'm ambivalent about the majority of my collection, but I do have my favorites that I'll always keep. What I do with the others, I don't know. Tax shelter?

    yep, I'm still collecting.

    recently I bought a couple original Andy Kehoe, Dan May paintings and a Ryan from the rotofugi show.

    next? there's some old RJ prints out there from the pre-white stripes days. I know where they're at, but need to travel far to pick them up.

    and looking for this if anyone has one -
