I've been wittering on for ages about there being colour variations with Vertigo. Other than the standard strong red/orange, orange/red, however you see it. And other than obvious fading, or possible lighter, weaker printings towards the end of the run. I have believed there are some printed more scarlet in colour, (ink variation, different printers?) because, well, that's what I was told. But now, given how things are lately, I wouldn't be surprised if there's some unusually scarlet ones out there, which are faded ones that have been boosted by translucent inks.
Anyone know?

Hey, Dave,

I have no qualms with you selling your posters at any price you want----no qualms whatsoever. But in terms of the VERTIGO one sheet, you are knowingly misleading the prospective buyer ( who has put his trust in your hands) by stating in your description it "MAY be faded". Give me a break! You know as well as I know that US Vertigo one sheets are BRIGHT ORANGE. You're obviously playing dumb so you can make your $2995. You owe it to your customers, being one of the Premiere Movie Poster dealers in the hobby, to TELL THEM THE TRUTH. You told me about a year ago that "Greed is good", remember? Apparently, you're incorporating that premise into your business where that ULTRA FADED Vertigo one sheet is concerned. Rick Ryan

GOOD POST, RYAN!!!!

i agree. the phrase "MAY be faded" is grossly UNTRUE & DISINGENUOUS. i dare any serious collector to agree with the ebay description that it "MAY be faded". you also suggested that different printings may have different colors. THAT IS BULL IN THIS CASE.

CLOSE UPS of the restoration should substantial repairs---and the colors dont even match.....UNLESS IT FADED MORE after the restoration.

it speaks volumes that no one has made an offer!!!!! you didnt fool anyone. a good condition poster of this poster sells in a heartbeat by heritage--at thousands and thousands more than what you'd probably accept as an offer. i wouldnt offer even 500.
