because of your posting, david, i looked and he did make the change. i am sure you know that often a post stating a seller's improper description AND DEFIANCE TO AMEND causes the MOPO POLICE to send messages to the seller!!!! i certainly dont read all descriptions, but that title got me excited at first because i added PORTRAIT OF JENNIE to my want list about a year ago. i was VERY disappointed when i realized it was the reissue!!! both the insert and half are nice; i do not like the one sheet at all. since the insert & half are not high ticket items, i do not suspect that the re-issue being offered on ebay will cause a major bidding war.......... michael ------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------- Apparently, this seller does pay attention to "smart asses with no life". He's amended his description to: "1956>>>Second Release". That seems accurate enough, although I agree that "Reissue" or "Re-release" is probably more commonly used. However, I'm still crossing him off my seller list since he obviously enjoys slapping people around. Speaks volumes about how he treats his buyers. -_David

WHEN ADVERTISING A POSTER, shouldnt the word "REISSUE" or "R" after the date be stated ?? isn't this the better practice? not everyone knows the year of as original release.

I have advertised it as an 1956 poster which it is. It is original. It is not a reissue and it is not a reproduction. It is a re release. The 1948/1949 poster was the first release, it was then re released in 1956. my second response: i had to check the year of the orig release date to be sure. i do want this title, but i do not collect reissues. you are confusing the terms REISSUE vs REPRODUCTION in your response. it is prudent to always state the R after 1956, or the word re-issue. not everyone know the year of the orig release. you should write the word REISSUE. all poster people do. regards----mbb seller's final response: ooops, I can't be bothered with non-entities such as yourself who are too busy thinking they are above it all and are not. I've been selling posters, lobby cards and other items for years and now I come across a smart ass with no life. Go play with your toys. >>>>>>>>> michael ____________________________________ See what's new at AOL.com <http://www.aol.com?NCID=AOLCMP00300000001170> and Make AOL Your Homepage <http://www.aol.com/mksplash.adp?NCID=AOLCMP00300000001169> .
