Re: [MOPO] Really FAKE Woodstock posters

The discussion reminds me of the "tapping" phenomenon in the book "Make it Stick'  if anyone has read the book. -----Original Message----- From: "Steven F.

Hey, you might have a roll of 50 of those suckers in your inventory. You're just as stubborn with this situation as you were with the Vertigo one sheet a few months ago---kind of like Fredric March rattling off the names of the books of the Bible as his sanity implodes. You can create your own reality if you want about the authenticity of these one sheets--or your rolled Cool Hand Luke one sheet--or your rolled Yellow Submarine one sheets.  The problem is-----the reality you create could very well affect a lot of unsuspecting buyers who put their faith in you as some kind of movie poster "expert".  You've made it clear as day in your posts that you're no expert when it comes to movie posters. You can rattle off some trumped up facts about the Woodstock one sheets being real (honestly, it's getting to sound a little too much like Fredric March rattling off the names of the books of the Bible---kind of scary). Welcome to Movie Poster 1984---wrong is right + bad is good + fake is real....                                                                       Rick Visit the MoPo Mailing List Web Site at www.filmfan.com ___________________________________________________________________ How to UNSUBSCRIBE from the MoPo Mailing List Send a message addressed to: lists...@listserv.american.edu In the BODY of your message type: SIGNOFF MOPO-L The author of this message is solely responsible for its content.
