<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Nathan Lindop, post: 342764, member: 5285&quot;]Hello everyone! Found my first forum for antiques I can attach to! The community seems so supportive funny and useful!</p><p><br /></p><p>Background on me is that my father about five years ago started to buy increasing amounts of art, movie posters and antiques. I loved the stuff he bought and we would be going to auctions every week, it was brilliant. I’d study everything I liked and learn and buy books on my favourite subjects. After amassing a rather large collection my dad chose to quit his job and after a long period of unsurity he took the plunge. Starting off any business is hard and his is no different. He’s now a full time movie poster and collectables dealer.</p><p><br /></p><p>My passion from antiques comes entirely out of my father and going to these weekly auctions together. I like to think I’m some sort of jack of all trades at auction, I’ll buy anything, research anything. I hope I rarely miss quality, but who doesn’t think they’ve got the perfect eye.</p><p><br /></p><p>My name is Nathan, I’m 20 and I generally at the moment like bottles, porcelain, art and oddities but I’ll buy anything I fancy. I’m a student who instead of spending my outrageous loans on booze and drink spends it on antiques. I’m like a Paul-Durand Ruel but without the noble cause, just antiques for me <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie49" alt=":happy:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> . I live away from home now for university and I lurk around the local auctions finding my fancies.</p><p><br /></p><p>I’ll be asking all sorts of questions here on all sorts of junk haha. Hope I fit in and can help some people one day. Thanks for reading <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie25" alt=":bookworm:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie15" alt=":artist:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
