Seeing that there was a large volume of old paper in the old newspaper, Lin Yi, who was already familiar with books, immediately felt something was wrong. Moreover, with the appearance of the old paper, a wisp of books actually came to his nose, which was even more incredible.

You should know that Lin Yi's nose is very sensitive and he can often smell the fragrance of books with valuable collections. In the past, he mostly relied on this ability to find many treasures.

Therefore, Lin Yi can conclude that this roll of old paper must not be simple.

With this conclusion, Lin Yi remained silent and calm, suppressing the ecstasy mood in his heart, because he knew that as long as he showed a little excitement, he would be noticed by the book seller. These book sellers were all human beings. You could tell what happened at a glance. In the end, you might be likely to return empty-handed or be slaughtered.

Therefore, the first reaction when you see a good thing is to keep calm.

Lin Yi stretched out his finger and gently opened the roll of old paper. When he saw that it was some old movie posters from decades ago, as well as some old posters.

After seeing it, the excitement in my heart became even greater.

You should know that Lin Yi is now an expert in books and has also conducted some research on movie posters and posters. He is no longer the kind of novices he used to be, so he is very clear that these posters have high collection value.

By the way, after a film is finished, film companies often have to find art masters to draw movie posters in order to achieve better publicity purposes. At that time, these posters were distributed for free and they were torn off after posting. Some were taken home to cover the walls, and some were torn to pieces and squatted in the toilet. It was not a pity for everyone, but it was too difficult to find these posters now. Many collectors may not have much gain after all their efforts. Only the movie archives still have some.

In fact, the collection of movie posters first began in the United States in the 1960s. Influenced by this, collecting movie posters have appeared all over the world. By the 1980s and 1990s, it had become a fashion, and many movie posters collected. For example, there was a famous movie poster collector named Bruce Machente, who not only established the movie poster art museum, but also held auctions of movie posters.

In the West, an extremely ordinary 20s movie poster worth at least hundreds of dollars, while a more precious movie poster can reach thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars. For example, a poster for "Citizen Kane" was only worth $5 in 1965, but now it is as high as $8,000. The poster for "Gone with the Wind" and "North African Spy Shadow" is priced at $10,000. Judging from the market performance, the earlier the age, the greater the influence of movie posters is often the more precious and the more popular the market.

For example, in 1968, the poster that promoted the French film "Sympathy of the Devil" that depicted the popular East team was sold for $4,025. Chaplin's "City Light" poster and "Lauree and Hardy" could no longer be offered. In 1996, Christie's in New York launched more than 500 movie posters at one time, each with the lowest price of hundreds of dollars, and the highest of tens of thousands of dollars; Hollywood held at Sotheby's in New York in 1997 at Sotheby's Auction in New York in 1997.

At the movie poster auction, a poster of the 1932 American movie "Mummy" was sold for $4.52 million, setting a sky-high price for the movie poster auction. In the same year, Christie's in New York also held an auction of movie posters. One of the 1933 movie posters was estimated to be 9,000 to 120,000 US dollars, and the result was sold for $8.17 million; another poster that promoted the 1933 film "King Kong of the Orangutan" was also sold for $7.95 million.

There are information that the original movie posters released in the United States before 1980 have now increased by 50 times: in the 1970s, the posters that can be bought for a few pounds are now worth hundreds of pounds.

Because movie posters have considerable market conditions in the market, they have also aroused the interest of counterfeiters. False makers generally reprint posters with high value, and it is generally difficult for people to identify counterfeits. To this end, in 1997, the "International Outdated Poster Dealers Association" was established internationally. One of the goals of the association is to deal with poster fraud.

In recent years, it has become a trend for Western countries to speculate on movie posters. Not long ago, Hollywood, the United States, posted posters in various parts of the United States in order to strengthen the promotion of "Pearl Harbor", which triggered a craze for stealing "Pearl Harbor". This shows that Western countries have unprecedented enthusiasm for collecting posters.

In contrast, the collection of Chinese film posters started late, but developed rapidly. Especially after the founding of the People's Republic of China, many famous domestic painters participated in the design of film posters, such as Cheng Shifa's "Lin Zexu", "Dry Trees in Spring", "Jade Butterfly", Guan Liang's "Zhou Xinfang's Stage Art", Huang Zhou's "Arnarhan", etc. These posters are exquisite artistic treasures in terms of artistic conception and painting skills, and are also expensive. For example, the woodcut versions of "Red Detachment of Women", "Chicken Feather Letter", "Sons and Daughters of China" and other movie posters have risen to 7,000 to 8,000, or even tens of thousands of yuan.

Posters from the 1980s and even the 1990s had already reached 100 yuan, such as "Shaolin Temple" 220 yuan, "North and South Shaolin" 180 yuan, "Shaolin Boys' Merit" 100 yuan, "Yellow River Heroes" 90 yuan, "Baling Rogue" 60 yuan, etc. These once popular movies and their posters have become the best products in the posters.

In the past two thousand years, some special things will occasionally appear, which will become popular products. The poster of "In the Mood for Love" directed by Wong Kar-wai and starring Tony Leung and Maggie Cheung is very typical. In the film, Tony Leung won the best actor in the 2000 "53rd French Cannes Film Festival". In order to cooperate with the release of the film in different regions, Wong Kar-wai designed three versions of the poster for the film, including the Hong Kong version, the French version and the foreign version. As a result, all three versions were hyped up to more than 3,300 yuan, while the mainland version also reached 80-400 yuan.

Therefore, although some posters are from recent years, as long as the film has an impact and the poster design is good and speculators are interested, they will still hype the poster to sky-high prices, which is amazing.

It is precisely because Lin Yi understands some collection knowledge about movie posters that he immediately believes that these movie posters hidden in newspapers have a high collection value. When reading, he becomes more cautious and cautious.

I looked at the elder sister who set up a book stall. When I saw that there was such a roll of things in the newspaper, I said, "Hey, I didn't pay attention when I brought it, who stuffed it inside." I also looked very curious.

Lin Yike ignored these things and pretended to be careless and said: "Maybe it's the same as these newspapers. Well, how much does these things cost in total?" He didn't dare to look at what the movie posters were, and rolled up the movie posters again with the newspaper and asked in his hand.

This is the trick. When you buy things at a book stall and find that there are treasures in the book, you must buy them together. Never buy only the things caught in them and only choose the good ones. This will make you look too smart and unprivileged. Those stall owners dislike those who are smarter than him, nor do they like those who are stingier than him. Only those buyers who like to shoot books and buy piles of books without much bargaining are their hearts and their favorite objects.

Sure enough, when the elder sister saw that Lin Yi wanted such a bad old newspaper, she felt happy and said, "You can give these newspapers 30 yuan, as for those posters..."

Lin Yi's heart skipped a beat and thought, "Are you going wrong? This elder sister is also a master?" So he waited for the elder sister to speak out, even bidding hundreds or thousands of dollars, and he slowly cut it down."

When my elder sister looked at her triangle eyes, she squirted and offered a harsh price, "Each piece costs at least 10 yuan. If you can't take it, it's fine--I don't know if it was my hole stuffed inside, and I have to ask him when I go back." Her nose was facing the sky, and the meaning was very simple, and there was no need to talk about it.

When Lin Yi heard this, his gripping heart finally fell to the ground with a bang. On the surface, he could not pretend to be too happy, nor could he be too straightforward, so as not to see that the other party would see something wrong and change his mind temporarily, so he turned a bitter face and said whether he could be less.

The eldest sister is very determined and can’t.

Lin Yi had no choice but to look like a defeated rooster, counting the number of posters honestly, a total of 22 pieces, and bringing 30 yuan to the bad newspaper, totaling 250 yuan. Then, under the supervision of the elder sister's sharp triangle eye, hesitantly took out the money from the bag. Fortunately, he brought more than 300 yuan, so he reluctantly gave it to the elder sister 250 yuan.

Finally holding these movie posters in his hand, Lin Yi felt relieved in his heart. After saying goodbye to his elder sister, he walked towards his Land Rover.

Later, the elder sister was very happy and joked that Lin Yi was really a "25-year-old". She saw her husband selling these posters before, and each one cost only 2 yuan. Today she sold her 10 yuan each at once, which wouldn't make a lot of money. But she didn't know that these posters and posters were the best things she had hidden in her husband, and she dumped them all today...
