bruce,
why is that the people who proliferate the bootleg business, STAY in
business? you receive 17 emails of the type you did... and, yet, all
he can continue to do is harp on his 7 pathetic reasons about WHY it
is good that he put more fakes into the marketplace (let alone the
fact he has made hundreds of dollars selling this crap on ebay, in
the past).
it is maddening -- and also, for me at least, is a HUGE red flag:
STAY AWAY from this one.
i was digging looking at many archive entries from NS4 and these
"fake/bootleg/unauthorized re-strike" situations by DL have been
talked about and exposed by many others, there, as well.
anything for a buck, it seems.

That explains something that happened yesterday, that I thought was
a very odd coincidence. I received 17 e-mails from MoPo members,
telling me they could supply me with a linenbacked Star Wars poster
for my upcoming mini-major auction at the end of the month, if I
didn't have one already!

We have received 17 requests for one in less than 2 hours.
this FREE offer is only open to mopo and movie poster forum
members......so if you think a collector who belongs to these
forums who wants one would turn around and try and pass it off as
original (getting it linen backed), you aren't paying the serious
collectors in this hobby much of a compliment.
again....they are clearly marked as fakes with several stamps on
the back "THIS IS NOT AN ORIGINAL MOVIE POSTER".
I could (but I won't) from memory name 4 other good dealers who
have sold these in the past (correctly described).
"So Lucasfilm didn't know that the fan club was buying and selling
bootlegs - in other words the official fan club was not getting
their endless stocks of one sheets (and later REVENGE OF THE JEDI
one sheets) through Lucasfilm channels?"
yes
"Did "J. Seymour" have a connection with Lucasfilm?"
I can't say for certain, but I would think he had no connection to
Lucasfilm.....but anything is possible.
"How were these posters dsitributed wholesale internationaly
through major comics distributors?"
I don't know.
