Hey Steve/Mopo: Actually, Dan shut the site down permanently a little while ago. I don't think he has any plans to re-open it any time soon (although, a book might be a possibility). Shame. It was such a wonderful resource (although, I'm pretty positive that the reprinters were using some of the info on the site to better their repros and bootlegs).

Bob, Do you have a new URL for the site? I have tried to go to www.movieposterauthentication.com a few times and it hasn't come up for me. I've needed some info lately for authentication and have been bummed that the site wasn't available. And yeah, I knew the lawsuit comment was crap too, but newbies don't know. These guys piss me off to no end. They're like cockroaches, you can't ever kill them all. Steve On 12/18/06, Bob Brooks <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Hey Everybody: You gotta love these lying fools!... Needless to say, but MPA wasn't taken down because of lawsuits. I should know, cause for the last couple months, it's been hosted on my servers (and will be hosted there permanently if Dan ever decides to reopen the site). So, if there was a lawsuit, I would have received one of the very first subpoena's... That's another reason why these a-holes will NEVER sue an authenticator - they'd have to answer for this kind of slander (plus they know where their products actually come from, and would never want to admit that under oath)...

Well, just heard back from a new seller of the probable $75 Pulp Fiction Lucky Strikes reprints (a long shot, yes I know). When asked for exact dimension to within a 1/16th of an inch, and a picture of the area on Uma's shirt (I've learned not to say cleavage, cause they use that as an excuse to call me a pervert), this is the reply I got back: Our description has all those details. As far as a photo in the old E-Bay days we always took photos for free of our items. I think once in 10 years ther actual person who we took the photo for bought anything. So we now charge $30 per photo. If you really want to buy a photo of one of our items then PayPal us the money and we will shoot the photo. The process takes about 10-12 days. We would be happy to send you a hard print in the Mail. Thanks! Bill Michaels Poster Galleries So basically in an age of digital cameras that cost $20, this guy has the audacity to charge for his photos so he can circumvent the question of if these posters are actually original. I think not. He also talks of the recent site that was taken down due to lawsuits (Dan's site of course), who was of course giving out bad, bad information on these known reprinters. Surprised he didn't refer me to The Professor! Jesus, every time a dealer is taken down, two pop up in his place to cheat newbies out of their money. I think he also sells those "minty white" inserts. Freakin' slags. Oh, eBay user id is postergalleries.
