This is most likely the real deal, but the poster has been DRY MOUNTED TO
FOAM CORE. For those who haven't been in the hobby that long, the process
of DRY MOUNTING a movie poster was considered a good thing by many 25 or 30
years ago. IT ISN'T. Where the value of the poster is concerned, it must
be carefully REMOVED from the foam core by a competent restorer and then
linen-backed (a process which costs at least $200). The only positive thing
about a poster being DRY MOUNTED is that generally the poster remains in
remarkably good condition over the 25 or 30 years of its being adhered to
foam core. The only problem is GETTING IT OFF! I sent a message to the
seller with the Revenge Of The Jedi one sheet and he basically said it was
"all
Greek" to him. I think the fact that the poster is DRY MOUNTED should be
more prominent in his description, but, hey, who's gonna spend twelve
hundred bucks for a REVENGE OF THE JEDI one sheet these days anyway, right?
