Such a beloved film. And I still ache at the ending.

Hi Bruce,
First, it's another great testimonial to the service you provide, prior to
anyone bidding or buying (supersize enlargements), although to be fair,
your buyer who wrote you either has never bought from or visited the
Heritage, Cinemasterpieces sites (and now MPE), to name but 3, that
While I'd far rather sellers made a concerted effort to accurately represent
lots, I can perhaps forgive a little tweak for improved presentation.
Though when something looks too vivid I think most collectors can easily spot
it, so it seems a pointless exercise.
Besides, aren't collectors
Kerry,
All super-sized images are not the same! Some *STILL *don't let you see
tiny imperfections like very small tears, faint smudges, etc. It has to do
with the technology of scanning and the settings on the scanner.
When I buy from anywhere online, I want what I see online to match what I
see
I think Voltaire figured out a long time ago that nothing's perfect in this
best of all possible worlds. I think it's almost more important to give an
actual written description of the condition of the poster or lobby card
including any flaws. Simply showing a photo without pointing out things
Hi Bruce,
Yes, I agree, while not all supersize images are the same, HA's hi
resolution, large images do allow for the viewing of imperfections, tiny
pin holes, smudges etc, wouldn't you agree? They have that process down,
all in all.
And as far as how a poster, WC etc looks upon arrival to
As the saying goes, a picture is worth a thousand words. And unless a
description is written in technical, bullet point fashion, pointing out
flaws, dings, rips (as well as it's positive aspects), a photo is 100%
crucial. No one would buy an item with only a paragraph of descriptive text
included.

Get a grip. Someone selling $10 lobby cards isn't going to hire James Wong

I posted on APF on this, that the boosting isn¹t necessarily intentional.
If you take Bruce¹s or Rich¹s photos and open them in Microsoft picture
manager or iPhoto on the Mac, select edit and then do autocorrect, you will
end up with an image with higher saturation and increased contrast.

First of all, quit being and sounding like a bitter, angry old woman all
the time. It is rather tedious.
Second, you said photos taken can appear brown or overexposed, even tho the
real image looks nothing like this. This is True.. if the one taking the
image doesnt know basic photographic skills
If that is the case, it's probably high time they noticed and made effort to
sort it out.
Seems ridiculous for a high end seller like Heritage to be victim of issues
that a lot of others seem to easily avoid.

I've been buying posters from Heritage for years. I've bought more in
2011 than I did in 2010.
Many of these items have been expensive items, a number of which are

I am yet to receive any item that I feel was misrepresented
If anyone is sounding like a bitter old woman with too much time on her
hands or at least enough time to manufacture a non-existent concern, it's
you. Not everything in life is a matter of life or death and not every

My take on boosted images is simple.
It's FINE to do that when presenting the images for use in a book, or other
decoration.
It's NOT FINE to do that when presenting the images to sell the poster.

I agree, Steve. As i mentioned earlier, this discussion has also been
going on at APF. If someone wants to boost or enhance images in a book
or on their own site, containing posters in their collection that are
not for sale, that is all well and good.

If you construe my question or observations as gripes, then this is
truly fruitless. I was doing nothing of the kind, let me be clear. The
same I guess would apply to those others (on APF) that have asked or

Kerry, it is correct that you can get on a soapbox such as MoPo or
APF and publicly post and yes, an open discussion is endorsed.
However, there comes a point where facts are not always in the favor
of the person posting.

I completely agree as well...in addition a catalog or internet picture
