hi rick,

the copy you linked to looked to be in fine condition and NOT MOUNTED to cardboard. that fact alone will decrease the value of any poster. and if the glue that was used is not water based.. for all intentional purposes, most would see this as a severely devalued poster.

i would rather have a poster with a few pin holes or nicks, than one mounted to card board, as i am sure most would. in addition, the link you provided had 10 images and close ups, showing any pin holes, creases, etc.

Why does the ad for the card board mounted copy have no image showing the back? this should be shown, as well, since this would be considered MAJOR damage to this poster, especially if it cannot be removed. and the statement that the poster mounted to cardboard will "be an unknown issue when framed" is not true either. it will always be an issue as will the bubbled surface areas that the poor mounting process caused.

the link you provided is NOT on linen. it has damage---but it is 55 ++++ years old. that was a great buy.

but, how often do you ever see this title in any size?

the poster i am offering is unrestored. would you prefer a heavily restored copy on linen for a lot more than i will sell mine for?

matter of preference. certainly, a lot of interest......with a few offers i rejected. 3 MOPO dealers have offered me high 300s to 400+ ++ ----clearly they will seek profit. isnt it great to sell to an appreciative collector???? there will be no disappointment to the buyer of this one who frames it "AS IS".

for the record............i will accept 535.00 from MOPO members using paypal, and i will pay for shipping. in just 2 days, there are 13 ebay watchers.....................

Hi, again,

In fact, a linen-backed Now Voyager one sheet that looks in pretty nice condition sold for $640 on eBay last week. Here's the link...
