I think it is interesting to note that in the article Phillip just
referenced,
that of the 11 posters Rega sent in, only two were determined to be fakes -
and then later the Dracula.
Does this mean Profiles happily sold 8 other posters that this fraudster
sent to them?
Can't really blame him for sending a fake-worked on Dracula poster to
Profiles for auction,
they had already sold a couple of other fake re-restored Dracula posters so
why not another?

The only information I ever saw about legal action were various reports
similar to the following
http://www.courthousenews.com/2010/02/10/24563.htm
the status of that suit or any subsequent suits, settlements or other
actions are unknown to me. Perhaps others have more current info.

Was the Dracula ever reported to the authorities?
When I think of it, I have read a lot about the shenanigans of Haggard
here and there but hardly anything about that Dracula poster since it was
discovered to be a fake (or rather an altered lithographic reproduction).

him and Diane Jeffrey of Studio-C originally backed it for the perp, but
included incorrect border information supplied to her so people would
know the poster was not real. John Davis of Poster Mountain who
subsequently worked on it to correct the incorrect data did not however
notice the fraudulent piece, for which he was widely derided
