Yeah I agree that grading standards have slipped over there, which stands out
more because Vertigo one-sheets are always in demand and not considered
"cultish" nor "obscure." Reconciling images with aberrant text descriptions

I take your point. Having said that, sun-faded or something else, I would not
want this poster, either personally or for inventory, because it's not within
the range that was intended. Not for $9000 +, not for $500.

For color reference… This is an unused example I bought from Alan Alder many
many years ago. He said it had only been unfolded once for his picture. I
unfolded it a 2nd time for these photos and it’s been in a flat file since. My
photo setup was designed to get a true and honest representation
That looks great Matt and your photographic setup must be top notch.
Do you have details of the vacuum board that you use? I have wondering about
getting hold of one.

Hi Matt - Glad you still have that Vertigo I sold you - I think I found 3 mint
ones like this and one used one - So there should be a couple more out there.

It’s a marvelous poster Alan, thank you! Here is a shot of the back, which is
just as clean as the front. I can’t make out any inventory numbers myself.

Kirby,
This thread is out of my ballpark, other than the "fading" discussion which
is very helpful. But your mentioning people considering their "decor"
when buying movie paper really made me gasp. The same people would have
conniptions over my Lewton group hanging on Victorian wallpaper.

Actually, this phenomenon comes up in a MOVIE. Cantankerous / grouchy artist

And that consideration may be thematic (like westerns in a wood paneled game

It's true.

Years ago, I did have someone return a poster because they said the color did
not match their curtains or their carpet. I don't remember which but that is
the ONLY time something like that has ever happened.
Getting back to Vertigo... It's been a long time since I had a One Sheet but

I wouldn‘t know which poster is most commonly found in collections, but for the
most owned movie poster (original or reproduction) of all time my money is on
the STAR WARS Style A Onesheet. An entire industry developed around the SW

It was a long time ago, but I never forgot the VERTIGO Onesheet on ebay that
was faded to a light yellow. The full-time movie poster dealer (excuse me if I
don‘t use the term ‚professional‘ here) had it described as ‚possible Style B‘.
Uh-huh.

Hi to you all
There have been lots of comments on Social Media about an increase in damaged
packages, no matter how well they are packed.
I recently sold some high end posters to a collector in Europe. Thankfully it
all went very smoothly.
However, much as I tried to anticipate any potential is
Always good to see your posts, Todd. It's a relief that the decor issue
has only happened once to you.
Kirby it just gets stranger. "Rodeo themed" Forgive me but having a room
theme being animals "broken" and "roped" for entertainment and the posters
have to match that?
The only "theme" I have

While we’re on the topic of vertigo posters ..I remember once hearing that
