Speaking of reprints...While I was procrastinating from doing yard
work today, I found this website that sells full size "fine art
prints" of one-sheets, half-sheets, inserts, and lobby cards of
popular classic films, including a lot of sky-fi/horror.

Later, when I was looking for a Blood Beach one-sheet on e**y, I
noticed that one seller was selling full size limited edition prints
of this title. I did not think that Blood Beach was a hugely popular
title, so I was surprised that someone was making copies of it.
Are these reprints finding their way into antique stores, estate
sales, etc. as originals?
It seems like there's the potential for a lot of people to get ripped
off, and improving technology will continue to make it easier.
Some day, the only safe way to buy movie posters will be to collect
forgotten pre-1950's titles that have lousy art and no stars.
