I've known movie poster dealer Art Harvy from New Jersey for many years. At this show he always has the best selection of vintage movie posters, lobby cards and photos. Art keeps most of the prices of his merchandise in his head so his associates frequently have to ask him the price of an item when a customer inquires. His son Michell calls it the "Hey Dad" system. Here's Michell now interrupting his dad who was talking with some customers to ask him the price of a photo.
Art tried his hand at setting up as a dealer at what for him was the far away town of Williamsburg, Virginia a few years ago. The show was the Williamsburg Film Festival. He didn't have a good show and told me then he was never coming back. However, now that the show has been taken over by Martin Grams who promotes this Mid-Atlantic Nostalgia Con show, Art has changed his mind and will be returning to the Williamsburg show this November. I look forward to seeing him there again in my neck of the woods.
