FLAWS / DEFECTS

 

FOLD SEPARATION
A tear along the fold line of a poster. A minor flaw unless it is a large tear. Not seen when displayed!!

 agreed.

FOLD WEAR
As a poster ages and is opened and closed over and over, the fold lines can get worn. Usually considered a minor flaw. could also be a major flaw if fold wear is heavy and a lot of white is showing.

FOXING
Small brown spots caused by age. Comes from tiny pieces of metal trapped in the paper during the printing process. Depending on the severity, this can be a major or minor flaw. border to sever, due to the fact nedds to be treated to arrest the spread.

 

MOLD

SNIPE

A small (usually) sticker with additional information that is added to an original movie poster by distributors or theater managers while the movie is still in its original release. It could contain an amended rating, a review, etc. A snipe is considered a very minor defect to most collectors, however it depends on its size, location, and whether it detracts from the original image or not. It must be romvable or it would be a major flaw.

NSS STAMP BLEED THROUGH

Sometimes the NSS stamp on the back is visible from the front. Depending on the severity, this can be a major or minor flaw. This is a minor and a very good flaw,pending it's not on marilyn's face.  It is a very important  part of the history of the poster. I don't concider it a flaw at all.
