Kirby and Channing, Congrats on a smart buy -- although it will take a really skilled restorer to fix those "brown spots", particularly in the blue-tinted photo (restorers hate fixing monochrome photos, they don't leave any wiggle room) but it can be done. I fail to understand what all the creebing was about on this item. The picture was excellent, clearly showing what needed to be fixed, and the description very accurately described the flaws in the poster and rated it an appropriate "Very Good". None of these flaws alone or combined were anywhere near enough to term this item a "nightmare" and I see no cause for any one to express consternation over the listing. Yes, the price was a bit high given the condition, but considering what it will be worth restored, not unreasonable. Some of you guys really are starting to obsess over non-issues now -- what, is the summer heat getting to people? On the other hand, you did bring this item to Kirby and Channing's attention, so I guess you still perfor! med a public service even if it was the reverse of what you intended. So, don't worry, Michael... you now know that someday soon you will be able to buy that fine condition ALL ABOUT EVE insert you're looking for... from Kirby or Channing! What an ironic turn of events... I love it. :) -- JR ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kirby McDaniel" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU> Sent: Friday, July 21, 2006 12:25 Subject: [MOPO] "HORRIBLE" ALL ABOUT EVE insert > The "horrible horrible" ALL ABOUT EVE insert has been purchased by > myself and Channing Thomson as a co-investment. > No, it's not perfect, but it will look very nice when we have it > repaired.
