Haven't bought there, I would, and if the timing had been better on a few items

And, I think they accurately represented this one:
Hi Bruce,
First, it's another great testimonial to the service you provide, prior to
anyone bidding or buying (supersize enlargements), although to be fair,
your buyer who wrote you either has never bought from or visited the
Heritage, Cinemasterpieces sites (and now MPE), to name but 3, that
While I'd far rather sellers made a concerted effort to accurately represent
lots, I can perhaps forgive a little tweak for improved presentation.
Though when something looks too vivid I think most collectors can easily spot
it, so it seems a pointless exercise.
Besides, aren't collectors
Kerry,
All super-sized images are not the same! Some *STILL *don't let you see
tiny imperfections like very small tears, faint smudges, etc. It has to do
with the technology of scanning and the settings on the scanner.
When I buy from anywhere online, I want what I see online to match what I
see

Hi Bruce,
Yes, I agree, while not all supersize images are the same, HA's hi
resolution, large images do allow for the viewing of imperfections, tiny
pin holes, smudges etc, wouldn't you agree? They have that process down,
all in all.

I've been buying posters from Heritage for years. I've bought more in
2011 than I did in 2010.
Many of these items have been expensive items, a number of which are

First of all, quit being and sounding
My take on boosted images is simple.
It's FINE to do that when presenting the images for use in a book, or other
decoration.
It's NOT FINE to do that when presenting the images to sell the poster.

I agree, Steve. As i mentioned earlier, this discussion has also been

not for sale, that is all well and good.

Kerry, it is correct that you can get on a soapbox such as MoPo or
APF and publicly post and yes, an open discussion is endorsed.
However, there comes a point where facts are not always in the favor
of the person posting.
