The main difference here is the people selling them weren’t creating them.
They were all bought from the estate of a man who died and he bought them
as aged fakes and didn’t care.  The estate sale company is selling them “as
is” with low prices and no guarantees.  It’s the people who purchased from
that sale that are trying to sell them as originals. And my feeling was
they thought (hoped) they were original at first ,but then after people
like Grey and myself saw the material in person and informed them they are
still trying to offer them.

 To all movie poster collectors,

 It has come to my attention that there is a group of apparent horror
 poster fakes being peddled on the market now.

 They are usually all “autographed” by the stars. These are all rather
 obvious fraudulent autographs.

 The list of titles include the following:

 Frankenstein Insert

 Dracula Insert

 Dracula Half Sheet

 Wolf Man insert

 Wolf Man half sheet

 Phantom of the Opera 1925 Insert

 Wizard of Oz half sheet

 Wizard of Oz Title Card, Balloon Card and Palace Guards scene.

 King Kong Lobby with Wray in tree, Kong and Log and Dead Card with
 Brontosaurus, Empire State card

 Bride of Frankenstein half sheet style B

 Bride of Frankenstein Title lobby and Lobby with Clive, Lancaster,
 Karloff and Thesiger.

 Frankenstein Title Card and scene card (cliff)

 House of Dracula Title Card and four scene cards

 Raven Lobby Card with erroneous image from 1940s release card inserted.

 London After Midnight Lobbies (3) one with Chaney as Vampire

 Mummy’s Tomb lobby card

 The cards seem to all be rubber stamped with some sort of period bogus
 stamp and are on the wrong paper though skillfully done.

 So far this is all I am aware of but believe a

The Kerry Haggard frauds were artful.  I spent $12,000 on one, and was 
fortunate to have purchased it from someone who was concerned for his own 
reputation. alerted me to the fraud, and returned my money. So it is not at all 
unusual that folks would have been taken in by them.
These are not in that class, but just as hurtful if one turns loose his cash 
for them.

And, by the way, Jim Gresham is another mensch in this hobby.

I have had two people in the last few days come to me convinced they have 
original Star Wars Style C posters, despite them being the wrong size and 
having 1990’s copyright information on the bottom, so I fear that a lot of 
buyers just see a deal that is too good to be true and buy, rather than doing 
their homework.

Thanks to all for the heads up.

The source of the fakes were from a series of estate sale  by

https://thekeytoestatetreasures.com   - they were sold with no guarantee by
this company and to date two individuals are offering them around as real.
I contacted the estate sale company and alerted them as to what is going on.


These are the two people so far I have been contacted by :

Joe Nitz out of Calumet City, IL
Anastasia Johnson out of Green Bay ,Wis


Please all be on the lookout and very suspicious of any "new" horror poster

I’ll try and post some Wednesday ( I bought a couple just to examine them)The 
forger used multiple stamps.
Most of the cards are just off and pretty easy to tell in person  but good 
enough to fool you in picture. I admit a couple fooled me, but considering the 
source ALL the card have toBe considered tainted.

London After Midnight Lobbies (3) one with Chaney as Vampire

Mummy’s Tomb lobby card

The cards seem to all be rubber stamped with some sort of period bogus stamp 
and are on the wrong paper though skillfully done.

So far this is all I am aware of but believe all of these are poor 
reproductions with colors significantly misrepresented.

Raven Lobby Card with erroneous image from 1940s release card inserted.
London After Midnight Lobbies (3) one with Chaney as Vampire
Mummy's Tomb lobby card
The cards seem to all be rubber stamped with some sort of period bogus stamp 
and are on the wrong paper though skillfully done.
So far this is all I am aware of but believe all of these are poor 
reproductions with colors significantly misrepresented.
I believe this may be just a partial list.
