[MOPO] Bravo Dario

[Susan Heim]

What a magnificient job Dario. Such a beautiful poster and your efforts have breathed new life into it and many years of enjoyment for the owner and future owner. You have a gift !!   Sue Heim ----- Original Message ----- From: Dario Casadei To: MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU Sent: Thursday, December 01, 2005 2:13 PM Subject: Re: [MOPO] Restoration or recreation? Rather than love and hate, why not. " Forgotten relics from motion picture's past, Salvage, Restored and Treasured "  ... so you and your grand children can enjoy these wonderful poster. I personally think it is very important that we save as many old original movie posters that we can. This poster would not have survived much longer unless some serious rescue effort was undertaken. The tape had distorted the shape of the poster as well as gelled the paper right through and the poster was extremely dry and brittle. Foremost it was an rescue effort. Please enjoy the pictures in sequence. http://members.shaw.ca/filmposters/ebaylist3/ghostbreakers4.jpg http://members.shaw.ca/filmposters/ebaylist3/ghostbreakers3.jpg http://members.shaw.ca/filmposters/ebaylist3/ghostbreakers1.jpg http://members.shaw.ca/filmposters/ebaylist3/ghostbrakers3inbath.jpg http://members.shaw.ca/filmposters/ebaylist3/ghostbreakers2.jpg http://members.shaw.ca/filmposters/ebaylist3/ghostbreakers5.jpg http://members.shaw.ca/filmposters/ebaylist3/ghostbreakersallfinnishedyes.jpg Sincerely, Dario @ www.vintagemovieart.ca Shelly Whitworth-King wrote: Ah ..

Toochis --- Phil Edwards Cinema Arts <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Tom is spot on. While many other (if not all) flaws/defects/damage to a poster can be treated by a restorer, once it's faded and lost something that was there completely, it requires a major repaint job. And who in their right minds would want that? Phil Tom A. Pennock wrote: Other than pieces out I would think fading would be one of the worst defects of a movie poster. No amount of work by a professional restorer could ever bring color back to a faded poster IMHO. I can't get UV plex for my large French posters so they stay completely out of the sunlight. --Tom Pennock Visit the MoPo Mailing List Web Site at www.filmfan.com ___________________________________________________________________ How to UNSUBSCRIBE from the MoPo Mailing List Send a message addressed to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the BODY of your message type: SIGNOFF MOPO-L The author of this message is solely responsible for its content.         Visit the MoPo Mailing List Web Site at www.filmfan.com ___________________________________________________________________              How to UNSUBSCRIBE from the MoPo Mailing List       Send a message addressed to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]            In the BODY of your message type: SIGNOFF MOPO-L    The author of this message is solely responsible for its content.         Visit the MoPo Mailing List Web Site at www.filmfan.com   ___________________________________________________________________              How to UNSUBSCRIBE from the MoPo Mailing List       Send a message addressed to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]            In the BODY of your message type: SIGNOFF MOPO-L    The author of this message is solely responsible for its content. _________________________________________________________________ MSN Messenger 7.5 is now out.
