Who's next to J-P MOCKY, I know this head that looks like Raymond PELLEGRIN? Thank you very much Dominique

I don't know, Antoine. Jean-Pierre Mocky came also this year to visit the fair (as Agnes Varda did, but she refused to be pictured by me) ; I thought he would stay at a table like the other years but he didn't so no picture.
A general view of one of the two rooms.

Oh yes....well, should you locate any of what I asked about, don't hesitate - Shorty

Shorty, 99% of thr films are in French at Argenteuil but I will keep my eyes wide open in London (there will be the Spring Fair and the Big Time Screen within a few months).

I've just received by e-mail some French articles about the fair. It seems that regarding the movie posters, it's the second in the world. Most of us are mostly interested in films and material but if the posters fans can help keeping this event...

Looks like a great event, with an impressive selection of Super 8 and 16mm projectors. If the posters are also a draw, that's a lot more interesting than stalls covered in DVDs, and there might even be an occasional memorabilia collector who can't resist branching out into collecting films.
