during the past 2 weeks while all of us were examining the Dracula
poster that has uncovered as a fraud, Sean brought up something from
the not too distant past about another poster that was discussed on this board
The Attack of the 50ft Woman one sheet that was restored by PosterFix
last
Sean asked me about this a few days ago, the reply I sent to him below:
I'll try and have a better look tomorrow, but..
S2 has different crop of the artwork.
S2 is cropped at the bottom, the guy by the blue car, his foot gets
cropped off (above and between the E and V in YVETTE VICKERS.)
But
Have no idea Richard. that's why it needs more investigation
I'll have to go down to S2 again and see if they have a file copy on hand
in an email to Neil Jaworski I say
how many posters of all kinds of titles have been done this way??
Neil wrote back:
you're totally right: in hindsight so many
Rich and Richard:
Remember that all S2s are recreations of originals. Their person used a high
quality scan as a guide only, and then did their own version. So there are
sure to be many subtle differences. These were intended to be homages, not
slavish exact recreations. So yes there can be added
Yes I already know this
D. Copson, the artist who did the image cleanup preparation made
numerous changes throughout the catalog for various reasons including
to prevent fraud (doesn't work if people are paying attention of course)
that's why I'll have to spend some time at S2 if I can and
Well, investigate.
As you know from what I've said privately, some elements of the
fallout from Drac makes me want to puke.
So count (sorry, ewww) me out.
This one's ALL yours.
I've looked, I don't think there's going to be any call for an OPEN
LETTER to Cloutier, but I could be wrong.

Rich and others,
Well, not to act like another panicky villager with a pitchfork, but I
had also been wondering for several years about the large increase in
the number of high-end pieces coming to market -- when many of these
items had previously been seen for sale much less frequently. And
