[MOPO] an ebay description ...... is my computer my enemy, or is the description false?

[Michael B]

i have forever cautioned people to be careful when buying posters from scans only that have been put on linen.    Consider this ebay item:   link:  http://cgi.ebay.com/I-CONFESS-1sh-poster-L-B-MONTGOMERY-CLIFT-HITCHCOCK_W0QQitemZ140010376097QQihZ004QQcategoryZ60331QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem#ebayphotohosting,    The description states:  "Poster is very good-excellent condition mounted on linen."   Is it my computer, the lighting, or are all the many white spots on the poster restoration ???   i just emailed the Canadian seller the following question,   "please tell me what all the white spots on the poster are.....  is that restoration, paint, or what?  THANK YOU."     Although i collect hitchcock, i would only buy the one sheet if it was at a bargain price, since i own the insert and have it framed.   (((this falls in line with the subject that I posted yesterday about ebay sale days)))   Your thoughts?   michael 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.
