This poster, currently listed as 'original german' by german eBay
seller 'cinefrance' is definitely a fake:

I have probably handled more original copies of this poster than
anybody else in the hobby, and EVERY single one of them had a small
white printing defect near the bottom border. On the fake version,
this defect is missing. (You can clearly see the defect on the high
resolution images on the Heritage website, for example.)
Upon request, the seller sent me an image of the actual poster, so
there's no doubt about the matter.
Also, I have strong reason to believe that the german BULLITT
poster listed by the same seller is also a forgery.
The seller is perfectly aware that he's selling forgeries, and I
already contacted him about this matter, and asked him to cancel
the listing, but to no avail.
