one of the problems here at MOPO, is that replies sometimes overlook prior postings. i have never really understood MILKY WHITE, but i knew it is bad, synonymous with FAKE. In fact, bruce sent out a warning to his consignors on Sunday about this subject. I was tempted to ask him to put together a small paragraph explaining this again for MOPOers. Imagine bruce writing a single paragraph? ha-ha. TODAYS TEST: SOMEONE DEFINE & EXPLAIN "MILKY-WHITE FAKE" in 50 words or less. In any event, any dealer or ling-time collector selling fakes is a cheater. A dealer is held to a higher standard. I don NOT understand that if a DEALER - COLLECTOR sells a fake once or twice that he should be given a pass. Don't be naive. Don't buy from someone like that. Anyone could surely could dupe someone by placing a $1,500 fake title among great, original posters. Simply--scruff it up, rip it, crumple it, use black crayon, etc. and then let the person think he/she is stealing it for a mere $600. The art of selling a fake is to create an illusion. I support the popular position of the MOPOers....DON'T DEAL WITH THOSE COLLECTORS OR DEALER that have been caught with their pants down.......no matter how polite they are. michael ps---- will someone offer me something on my damn WANT LIST posted yesterday.......i have been on a crazy buying frenzy in the last 2 weeks. mbb **************Who's never won?
