I understand the poster is going to be side by
side with Ron Borst's copy next week after John Davis returns from his vacation
they're at least going to be looking at Ron's poster
I'm sure once this happens we'll see some
developments. Until then, for some people it's
the beginning of the Yom Kippur weekend and no
business can be conducted during that time for them.
Also, I'll be going down to S2Art gallery to see
Jack Solomon Tuesday and examine a S2Art Stone
Litho reprint of the poster which also is the
same image as the Profiles copy. I wonder if
art.com sourced their poster from S2 ??
I'll be able to query Jack on several issues hopefully.
thankfully, S2 is just a couple miles away and it's an easy jaunt for me

I just had a look at the Profiles in History
listing for the Dracula one sheet (see below).
The description has not changed. I havent seen
anything as yet from Profiles in History that
addresses any of the questions that have been
raised. The auction is now just two weeks away.
It would be good if they could comment on some
of the issues. Here is the listing description as of today .....
(Universal, 1931) Bela Lugosiâs version of the
iconic Bram Stoker novel is considered to be the
definitive film adaptation. This incredibly rare
27 in. x 41 in. one-sheet style-B stone
lithograph image of Dracula peering through a
spider web with his hypnotic gaze is the
quintessential poster for Tod Browningâs 1931
Universal horror film. Indeed, Universal chose
this image as the cover for their Pressbook
distributed to theatre owners to complement the
filmâs debut. This example is one of only
three of this style known to exist. Another copy
of this very poster is being offered publicly
for $950,000! This poster is on linen possessing
bold colors with slight touch up with colored
pencil on fold lines and some restoration on the
borders and title. Very fine. Comes with a full
restoration report and COA from John Davis at Poster Mountain.
$200000 - $250000
