TODD FEIERTAG is a name that is synonymous with Vintage Movie Posters since he's been buying and selling them for 61 years!! On MARCH 1, 1997 he conducted a single owner sale of his own material at Sotheby's(the largest auction house in the World) in New York which was the most successful movie poster auction of all time. Many of the rare posters were the finest examples in existence and/or the only known examples. Included in that auction was an original one sheet for THE MUMMY(1932) which sold for $453,500.00, more than doubling the previous high record for a poster. An astounding amount at that time and an auction record which stood for almost eighteen years.
