We thought it was faded too.......and we strongly suggest that it is. we have sold about 7 or 8 of these within the past few years and this one is definitely the lightest one we have had.......HOWEVER.....another DEALER/LINEN BACKER consigned it to us and he told us he thought there were 2 or more printings.........so this is our description: This Saul Bass designed poster is highly prized by collectors. Almost impossible to find nowadays. This particular one sheet has several defects that can still be seen even though it has been restored and linen backed. In the white border there are 3 missing pieces/chips about 1" square that have been restored/replaced. There are several noticeable wrinkles and large tears. This one is a lighter orange color than the others we have sold over the years. This is either due to the fact that its red color has faded to orange, or it was actually printed that color (some have told us there were two printings of this one sheet and one is much more red than the other). We can't confirm if this is true or not (probably not). This poster looks far from perfect but it is still very presentable. For the Hitchcock buyer on a budget! This is not at all misleading. It strongly suggests that it is faded.
and I don't read rick ryan's posts as I blocked him a long time ago so I don't get them on mopo. Too much for sale spam of garbage posters. And also because he is buddies with greg egbert and stuck up for him when me and others were telling about our horrifying experiences with him. And also because rick ryan likes to sell egberts fake Friday the 13th rolled 27x40 one sheets as original. and michael said "it speaks volumes that no one has made an offer" um......no it doesn't. We have hundreds of best offer listings on ebay where no one has made an offer. I guess you don't realize how fixed price listings work on ebay. We have only had this vertigo 1sh listed for about a week......it costs us 35 cents a month to list it.........and we can put a best offer option on it for free. Sometimes people make offers....sometimes they don't. The bottom line is that the cost for us to keep it listed indefinitely on ebay is negligible.
