Last night, I lost two items I wanted badly in a movie poster auction. The items were linen-backed stone litho one-sheets for "Hello, Frisco, Hello" and "Star Dust."
I didn't mind too very much as I won two beautiful linen-backed travel ad posters by an Italian artist renowned for his watercolors. One ad was a scene in Capri, and the other a scene in Anacapri (a second town on the island of Capri, which is both a city and an island).
That said, I have soothed my anguish over the other two posters by, this very morning, not 10 minutes ago, ordering a region-free Blu-ray player.
And to further soothe this anguish, I have ordered, from an Amazon.co.uk seller, a new Blu-ray disc of "Fantasic Planet".
Ain't it about time?
