I think the one making the claim would have to have an itemised inventory with their insurance company and some kind of valuation from a reputable specialist dealer to pull off something like that... but desperate times call for desperate measures for some people... a fact all insurance companies are no doubt now dealing with daily.
Edward G. Robinson would figure it out in five minutes and fire off a couple smart one liners at the same time.

A poster collector's garage will catch on fire, damaging his Lady and the Tramp poster. Then, he'll say to his insurance company, "That poster was worth 51 large! It says so on the Poster Bob website!" I think I'll write this into the plot of the next episode of Poster Dragnet (airing every Sunday night on the Movie Poster Channel). -rk On Jan 12, 2009, at 8:25 PM, Phil Edwards wrote: This is a disease known outside of the US as Brooklynbridgeitus.

We have been unable to find another one still in existence. That makes this a ONE and ONLY,of probably the most loved of Disney Movies, which really makes it priceless.
