hi michael, it's true that half sheets / inserts can be both lightweight or 
more like card and yes even within the same Title! i think that a 'thicker' 
card might lend more veritas to a reproduction than one printed out on 100 gram 
paper....worrying then if this is the trend.

neil---
 
because you discussed using linen as a way of making it more difficult to
spot the fakes.......please comment as to the thickness of the paper
without linen.
 
i have found that half sheets and inserts vary in paper/cardboard
thickness-----   in fact.  my inSert of  an affair to
remember is a bit thinner than my other insert.
 
 
thanks

      i think this is a real problem here, maybe not for right
        now [and maybe not with all of it eg the 3sheets which are in one piece]
        but in years from now.  it continues to annoy me that Moviegoods
        sells reproduction posters of half sheets at 22x28 and other 'to scale'
        repros....why not reduce or increase the size slightly if there is no
        intention to deceive [or to encourage/allow others to decieve]? if these
        were linenbacked would they not be difficult for casual poster buyers to
        suss out?

          can these posters really fool?   suppose you are a
          dealer, and you put one of these half sheets or inserts (PLUS A LITTLE
          ADDED CREASES, SMUDGES, TEARS, ETC.) in a stack of
          originals......would you be able to pull off a scam?
           
          i have never seen these REPROS.   same paper
          thickness???????????
