I guess I have been going about this all wrong. This is so much easier:
CONDITION REPORTS - Detailed condition reports are not offered by the auctioneer Louis J. Dianni, LiveAuctioneers, or the Consignor. The absence of a condition statement does not imply that the lot is in perfect condition or completely free from wear and tear, imperfections or the effects of aging. It is the responsibility of the bidder to examine lots in person, through an agent and/or by visiting and viewing the many photos available in the catalog on LouisJDianni.com on each item being offered for sale. Any condition report given, as a courtesy to a potential bidder, is only an opinion and should not be treated as a statement of fact. All counts, weights and measurements are approximate. The Auctioneer shall bear no responsibility for any error or omission. From: MoPo List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Harry Caul Sent: Thursday, February 07, 2013 9:37 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [MOPO] Palm Beach movie poster auction Monday Feb. 18th Got a reply this morning.... ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thank you for your interest in Lot 1195, the Frankenstein Poster. We understand your concerns and have actually updated our condition report on this poster. Condition: Excellent. Restored and sealed in cellophane against poster board. Linen backed. Noted painted restorations with watercolor and gouache in woman's dress, side of Frankenstein's face, Frankenstein's shirt where Wolf Man is grabbing him, lamp pole, upper left corner, between Frankenstein's leg and woman, the folds and minor scattered paint. With regard to your concerns and hesitancy to commit to this piece, while we have no reason to doubt this poster’s authenticity, we would prefer that you either view it yourself in person or have your agent do so before bidding. Our consignor believes this poster to be the real thing, and therefore will not agree to a refund, allow you to authenticate or renounce it after purchase and possibly give it to the authorities. Again, we thank you for your interest as well as the time you took to share with us your concerns. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Visit the MoPo Mailing List Web Site at www.filmfan.com ___________________________________________________________________ How to UNSUBSCRIBE from the MoPo Mailing List Send a message addressed to: [email protected] In the BODY of your message type: SIGNOFF MOPO-L The author of this message is solely responsible for its content.
