Bought this from a dealer in Europe.

Here’s a movie poster I picked up on E-bay. This is a 1985 poster issued by Canon Films when they owned the rights to Spiderman. Remember Canon Films also did Superman 4: The Quest for Peace. Cameron was going to make a much darker version of the story. But they lost the rights to it somehow.

I bought this on What Not for a fairly cheap price. I know it’s not in gem mint condition because of the scuffing on the plastic and slight dents on the side. I’m very new to this and have never graded/slabbed a movie. So if this worth getting slabbed and graded? Please let me know your thoughts on this.

I know the premium is the ‘89 Upper Deck card, but I always liked the photo and the card design to this years card. What are your thoughts?

Growing up in DC, my childhood idol was Frank Howard. Sure, they weren’t contenders to win the AL East, but I didn’t care.

Baseball is baseball and a lot of us were very angry the owner, Bob Short, moved the team to Texas to become the Rangers in 1972. It took 33 years for DC to finally get the Expos move down from Montreal to become the Nationals.

But through all this, Frank Howard, was still a local hero. He has a statue in front of Nationals stadium. To me, the cover epitomizes how baseball is remembered to people of my generation and is so much a part of growing up and American culture. What are your thoughts?
