Good idea. Of course I should be sure to get it "authenticated" after I have it properly recreated (I mean, *"restored"*).
But then I would no longer have 872 title cards and scene cards in this week's offerings of lobby cards (I would have 871) and all the advertising I have done to this point would be mis-representation, and I would likely be hit with several lawsuits from collectors feeling I had deceived them. What to do, what to do? I would say the best thing any collector or dealer could do would be to go to the entire auction gallery at * http://www.emovieposter.com/agallery/13.html*<http://www.emovieposter.com/agallery/13.html> and see these great (and now controversial) lobby cards for themselves!
