Yeah, I feel this is like one of my undercover vice stakeouts when we
were eavesdropping on
George Michael and Ernest Borgnine at night in the park.
I'll tell you guys what I told them...

these are YOUR exact words bob:
So, here's the list of things that are different between the
originals and these possible-bootlegs (I'm going to call the ones
we know to be original "originals" and the ones that are widely
available "bootlegs" - I'm going to ignore the reprints for now,
although they're somewhat similar to the possible-bootlegs):
Originals are about 27" by 41" - bootleg's are undersized
There is more artwork on the original - the bootleg's have the art
cropped by just the smallest possible amount
The bootlegs have different brightness and contrast (considerably
brighter than the originals)
The bootlegs have a printing flaw (that appears slightly out of
focus on the reprint, but does not appear on the original).
The paper is about the same on both (the reprint has completely
different paper).
The print quality is about the same on both (very high quality -
the reprint has inferior printing).
I don't know what Dan's conclusion is going to be (it'll probably
be months before we know). But, I would suspect, at the very
least, he will mark them as "buyer beware." Some of those
differences above are very disconcerting - to say the least.
Especially since, as I mentioned before, there shouldn't be more
than one single printing of this poster (from one single day - at
one single printing facility)...
Personally, I wouldn't touch one of these unless I heard from the
source EXACTLY where they came from (and was convinced it was
true). But, as it usually goes with large quantities of bootlegs
that suddenly appear on the market, they'll probably never say
exactly...
Cheers,
Bob
