on better items, should an owner put his/her name and address on the back.
isnt it hard to sell better "stolen" items that have identifiable markings?
i purchased both 1934 IMITATION OF LIFE half sheets from Heritage 15
years, ago. mint, rolled posters. but they each minor india ink stains in
the
borders. those stains are like fingerprints. they are forever catalogued
by Heritage.
my my memory tells me that a batch of very expensive posters were stolen
from a dealer or auction house in england 20 years ago. recovered 5 years
later by the police. does anyone recall?

So sorry for your friend's loss! Sounds like it was someone he knew or
that someone gave the info to the thief. Sadly I'd look at friends or
acquaintances. This person knew exactly what to target.

the TV and all the electronics stuff. i had my house broken into 20 years
ago. Posters untouched. Guitars untouched. TVs and stereos, all gone. Lucky
me. I also had the rare pleasure of watching the robbers being led away in
handcuffs. (There was a dentist who had meth lab going in his basement who
lived just up the street. We regularly found our mailbox opened and
letters scattered all over the road. The police asked us if they could use
our
back yard for surveillance. I gave them the space happily along with an
endless supply of coffee and donuts. It was so great seeing those bastards
being led away. And, no, i never got my things back.)
