Monster-A-GoGo's Shock-O-Rama Poster Show RECREATION # 113

September 21, 2016, 02:42:08 PM


Hi there. Thank you for stopping in. I am STILL moving. It's kind of on hold until October as i have a very important project due by October 1st. I had some friends come to town to help with the initial move...but they got burned out after a day or so....So even though one friend stayed around for a week (!), we didn't get much done beyond those initial few days. Oh well.




Getting back to the poster room progress, the bulk of my framed posters still remain in the shack-0-rama waiting to be moved. I have realized that, unless I want to use all of the closet space (like I did when i lived here before with these 200+ framed posters), I'm going to have to store them as i did in the shack-o-rama...on their sides and piled UP. They were store three high in the shack-o-rama. I'll take a picture the next time I'm there (if there are still posters on the top row, that is...). I'll have to get little labels to put on the ends of the frames so I'll know which is which.



My poster room is getting so crowded/full. I have 9 boxes of folded posters and tons o' other crap as well....with still MORE boxes of folded posters and MORE tubes still at the apartment. Yikes!  I can't wait to go through it all though.


My buying has also slowed way down. In the coming posts, you;ll see things from August for quite a while. Oh well...

Anyway, thank you for visiting my humble page.

CHEERS!

Here's a look at the shack-o-rama where most of them are still stacked up, laying on their side, three rows high...(top row is almost all of the way pulled down and moved already--but it was FULL at one time).  Please excuse the mess:




More tubes and a few loose (!?!) posters home tonight (along with various boxes o' crap). O' the joy... Will this move EVER end?

Thanks for visiting the thread.


CHEERS!

The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2023: #10

Welcome back! I certainly did NOT expect to have any further posts with new purchases this 2023 calendar year, but here we are. Granted, most of these are holdover purchases from my temporary poster-buying insanity in October. I’d expected those to be the foundation for whatever post I kicked off the new year with. But now? I had a few more pick ups… Why hold back? Let’s send 2023 out with a real BANG! Christmas came a little early this year. Uh oh… The lights are dimming. Take your seats. Let’s see what I have for you this time… GIRL IN GOLD BOOTS:  Not a great poster, but one I’ve been after for a while. This flick is an exploitationer from legendary B man Ted V. Mikels (CORPSE GRINDERS, ASTRO-ZOMBIES, BLOOD ORGY OF THE SHE-DEVILS, etc.). I saw it years ago. I don’t remember much other than that there is a girl (who wears gold go-go boots) who is a dancer (and maybe sings?) and is somehow involved in the criminal underworld. Like a lot of Mikels’ films…it doesn’t leave an indelible m

The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2023 #9

  Welcome! Get your tickets and take your seat.The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show is about to begin. I am still disabled and only getting worse…yet, uh, um…I’m spending money on my ADDICTION to posters that I really have NO BUSINESS doing. Why? Because I am STUPID. (But I LOVE staring at them…) Waaaaagh! Anyway—-my stupidity is your viewing pleasure (or however you want to term it…).  Here we go… THE LADY IN THE MORGUE (1942 RE-RELEASE) : This isn't something that I'd usually buy. I've never seen this old mystery/whodunit flick. Despite this being a re-release poster (The original, with completely different art, hails from 1938.), I decided to go ahead and buy this 81-year-old gem for several reasons. I like the monster-ish hands reaching in at the couple. I dig the purple/green color scheme. The old school font is awesome...and one of its co-stars is Barbara Pepper, who brilliantly played Mrs. Ziffel (Arnold the pig's "mom") on GREEN ACRES. Ha! The most important r

The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2023 #8

  And, what!?! We're B-A-C-K!!! That was...quick. (It just seems that way as I delayed the previous post until I finished my write up on my Something Weird Video adrventure, which I had linked to the page. I've already been working on this one for several weeks.) Truth be told, though, about half of these became mine in a 12 hour period. It is no secret that I am now disabled. I live on a VERY modest income with very little in the bank to fall back on. There is a saying, "You can't take it with you." There should also be a saying that says "You can't enjoy it if you don't have it." That seemed to have been my mindset during a recent eMovieposter auction. Despite the fact that everything was on linen--there were so many titles I wanted. Things were fairly cheap...until the very end. But... Geez! Dipping into my meager savings was... EXTREMELY STUPID and FOOLISH.  But, it happened. Let's take a look: PRO BALL CHEERLEADERS: What the hell is this
