this theory seems highly unlikely.... film posters from today are
printed in such voluminous quantities that they will always be
available in movie memorabilia & souvenir shops across the country
relatively low prices. old stone lithos (ESPECIALLY because of the
internet and the research that can be done on these items), first
off, will never be unsell-able, nor will they sit in dusty attics. at
this point in time,i would wager a guess that hidden treasures off
this type are becoming more rare. stone litho posters were not
printed in the quantity of today, the paper was and is more fragile,
and many have been thrown away, destroyed or simply disintegrated.
big difference here.

Someday, an original "Donnie Darko" one sheet will be commanding an

while gorgeous Buck Jones stone lithos sit unsold and unsell-able
in a dusty attic somewhere.
