One of my favorite exchanges in a movie... Moses Pray: I got scruples too, you know. You know what that is? Scruples?
Addie Loggins: No, I don't know what it is, but if you got 'em, it's a sure bet they belong to somebody else!

(not excusing Joe, simply saying it is). it happens a lot, it seems .. true talent and trust thrown away because of the lure of the Almighty Dollar (and not having the scruples to say no in the first place).

Looking back, his restoration techniques were fairly primitive (although they seemed pretty cool at the time!). Then in the early 90's, Joe Hernandez entered the scene and restoration was taken to the next level. Back then, I thought Joe was a genius at his craft---brilliant. I still think so. But apparently he had a darker side that ultimately ruined his career. Anyway, it's my opinion that like it or not, Joe set the restoration standard that still exists today, leaving the old techniques of Igor Edelmen in a trail of dust. Joe had it all and threw it away, leaving a trail of lies, deceit and thievery behind him. What a waste of a brilliant talent. I have quite a few posters on my walls that were linenbacked/restored by Joe in the early 90's. Back then, he had no match---he was the best. So very strange that 17 years later, he's a virtual pariah in the hobby.
