This was a great film. I researched it some more. I found it hard to believe that no one would be interested in this collection. I guess there is a lot of doubt to the actual value of the collection. Some think the collection is full of cutouts. He used to be a big time cutout dealer. The Rolling Stones album for instance can be pretty easily found in the $2500 range, which is quite a bit less than the $10,000 he says it's worth. Very interesting story.
