the blank area at the top of a window card or belgian poster is part
of the poster and therefore it's removal in either case is certainly a defect
however, it still remains a collectible item as the art is otherwise
intact and it is not nearly the same as a lobby card that has been
trimmed which in most cases make the lobby card worthless in
comparison to a lobby without trimming
in the case of the trimmed window card, it is acceptable to most
collectors looking for an item they may not find easily to buy one
missing the top blank section. If the window card has been trimmed of
it's right, left & bottom borders, that is where most collectors draw
the line to it being wholly defective

at one time, people would frame these after cutting the blank area
or blank area that had hand-written words and display the image only.

Is there a similar consensus about Belgian posters that have had the
blank (written or stamped) area above the image removed?
Are these trimmed Belgian posters also considered "defective" or
"damaged"? I would guess the same argument would apply as the WC
discussion, since both are designed in a very similar fashion?
If not, I'd be curious to points of view.
Thanks.
