Restorers shouldn't sign their work, but they should sign a letter,
that lays out IN DETAIL what work they performed on the poster, plus
a before-restoration
photo should accompany this 'restoration certificate'.

I'm curious on how exactly you came to this conclusion based on the two
set comparison?
Reason I'm questioning is that my Alien lobby card set was the second or
third acquirement into my collection. It was given to me by a friend
who managed a theater. He had about 10 sets he saved

when this notice from ebay first was sent out, it clearly indicated
what guidelines needed to be followed in order to get the 5 free
insertions..
it isnt an odd restriction, simply one they have put into place. im
sure most were aware (like i was), the first time the mailer went
out, as
I have to agree, don't like it? don't USE it.
I rarely use ebay anymore, don't look unless someone sends me a link..
Who cares? its not a given right to have ebay. Or have a good ebay, or

LOVE AFFAIR,
Jeff,
I would certainly love to hold your card in my hands (or at least see a
scan) and compare it to the two sets that I have here.
Without doing so (and heck maybe even with), I can't explain it and barely
want to try.
If it is only one card, perhaps it has a miscut, I don't know what
Sean is definitely right about fake lobby cards being around longer than most
people realise, and as I have said before (either here or NSF or both) the
longer fakes (posters and lobby cards) are in the collecting food chain, the
tougher it is going to be to distinguish whole sets of fakes and
