Dracula

I have sold just as many of them as you have Bruce - that is to say zero. As I have previously discussed, I did indeed purchase one of the fakes (though not from Haggard directly). Because I was good...

And I am still wondering just how "rare" these are. Are they different examples, are they the same cards going around and around? How Rare Are Universal Cards and Posters?

Exactly Phil. For 30 years (as you and I well know) 1930s Universal horror lobbies were scarce as hen's teeth. Then, exactly at the time the self-confessed forger began making fakes, they became...

Bruce, Thank you for your compliments on my ability to avoid the fakes - although to be fair Todd Feiertag also never bought or sold a fake, and Ken Schacter never sold one either (though like me, he...

Here's what I find so disgusting about this whole matter... The facts seem to be as follows: 1. Someone consigned multiple posters in the $xx,xxx to $xxx,xxx range. 2. Multiple 'experts' in movie...

Yep, nicely done. Clicked on link to see Poster Mountain's analysis again. Still find it mind boggling that: 1. They assumed the original to be offset litho, and didn't check with anyone when...

After rereading this thread, word for darn word, even douche, (can others see douche?) it's all mind boggling and the latest development just makes it more insane. Thanks Jason, good stuff.
