my response to MOPO did not suggest that neither my description nor Heritage's description was confusing. Emovieposter has a few description listed as "spanish", those images cannot be enlarged when his auctions end. So, the actual Spanish country might be unknown, unless you are totally familiar with the images. Perhaps, you may want to search other titles on Heritage and other websites to see how the word SPANISH is used interchangeably with specific spanish country poster, and make a report to us. Those collectors more knowledgeable will probably acknowledge that posters printed in Argentina were sent to other Spanish countries for advertisement. AND I WOULDN'T MIND HAVING THAT ARGENTINIAN SELLER, WHO IS A MEMBER OF MOPO, explain why he constantly lists tons of one sheets in the AMERICAN ORIGINAL CATEGORY ON EBAY---when they are clearly NOT american, origial posters. an occasional listing of a great title from another country is okay--even good--BUT EVERY WEEK??? michael In a message dated 12/20/2009 10:08:24 A.M.

Yes, just checked it and HA's description is definitely confusing. It states that is Spanish, no mention of Argentina, while at the bottom border "Industriua Argentina" is printed. At the same time i7 measures 27x41, while regular Argentinean onesheets are slightly bigger than US onesheets and Spanish slightly smaller. I can only imagine that this indeed is a Spanish language version of the US onesheet but printed in Argentina or indeed they have it wrong.

Rather, you have to look at their image to see the word "ARENTINA" in their enlarged image. _http://movieposters.ha.com/common/view_item.php?Sale_No=7014&Lot_No=89913_ (http://movieposters.ha.com/common/view_item.php?Sale_No=7014&Lot_No=89913) The important part of Heritage's description states: "...unrestored Spanish one sheet features glamorous portraits of the leads, essentially the same artwork as the American paper. Condition issues include pinholes throughout, edge wear in the lower border, a tear in the top border at the fold, fold wear with extra folds in all borders, and a chip out of the bottom left corner. Very Good/Fine. " (EMPHASIS ADDED) Compare the 2 posters.............EXACT I would NEVER suggest Heritage's description for this poster as to country of origin is misleading. Did you call Heritage misleading? And by the way, i do not recall you complaining about the seller from Argentina that lists tons of one sheets on a weekly basis in the wrong category of ebay.
