i agree, sue..and the thing that is clearly stated on the web site is
the fact that he is selling fine reproductions, and nowhere on the
site is he trying to "pass off" as legitimate, vintage posters, these
items he is selling. that other individual didnt read carefully enough.

Hi Evan and all,
You have to remember there are more people not in the hobby than
in the hobby that still enjoy movies and love the advertising but
since they are not collecting don't want to pay original prices. As
the largest frame seller on Ebay I ship about 1500 frames a month
of which at least 90% of those are going to non collectors that are
just decorating a t.v or theater room. I actually know several
dealers and collectors who have bought these exact posters just to
decorate an office. The gentleman that makes them is a very nice
guy and the quality is unbelievable. I have been meaning to order
some from him for months and have just been so busy to do it.
I have a ton of friends that love the movies but would never get
into collecting original movie posters. In the past I have given
them a framed up movie poster for a gift and it was also the most
exciting gift of the party but it was usually for something current
or vintage not of great expense. There would be no way any
collector would ever mistake these prints for originals as they are
not made on typical card stock or movie poster paper. He also
clearly states they are fine art reproductions and this type of
thing is common in all types of paper collecting. If you are
looking for a high quality reproduction, these are the best I have
ever seen.

Subject: [MOPO] Now heres something this hobby REALLY needs!!

So, is this legal now?
will we be seeing these pop up for years on eBay pretending to be
legit!
At what point will the reproductions become indistinguishable from
the originals?
Just some musings on a Tuesday evening.
BTW: Looking for early Cary Grant 1-sheets (preferably reasonably
priced and unbacked).
Thanks,
Evan
