BOULDER -- Don Look likes to look ahead.
``Don't look back. Back is all used up,'' said Look. ``An old gal in the circus told me that.''
Despite the philosophy, Look's hobby thrives on the past. Look, 71, is one of the nation's major collectors of cowboy movie posters and related memorabilia from the 1940s and '50s.
He showed a visitor a letter from a German collector asking for help in acquiring an addition to his collection.
``I enjoy doing stuff by mail. You meet a lot of people by mail,'' Look said.
He also keeps in touch by computer network.
