Some of the APF rif-raff will wax poetic 'bout how "wonderful" the extra number and notable prominence of the folds are :P

Yep, this wins the award for the most ridiculous price at HA this season.  If it was the original Papuzza drawing, maybe, but this is not even close.  It's nothing.  Just some art that never was.  I just don't understand, I guess.

$2,629!!! Proof that sometimes people have more money than brains. I still think $200 is nuts for this one. Far tooooooo common.

And it's not even that great of a photo. The color is bland and blue-ish, with that book poorly photoshopped into Yoda's arms.

Intergalactically moronic to LB an undamaged rolled MP but apparently didn't inhibit bidding:

Well to my surprise you really can earn (not buy) MPs from Disney movies like Star Wars via their Rewards Program. It’s not for me, but may be of interest to APF parents:

I checked a few celebrity Twitter accounts for poster-related tweets/retweets and found a few (yes, I assume these and most "likes" are for non-poster reasons):

NYC pic from comments:

StarWars.com gets massive traffic so good news it featured the new poster on the intro page:

Not that Star Wars interests me one jot, but for which country are all these posters?

I thought by now, we would have seen all the variations.

None of these posters exist.  They're just internet creations.

Gotta love the worthless, fancy-looking CoA that was included with this piece, too.

Looking "Collectible Investment Brokerage" up online shows it to be a "company" of 3 people (likely a mom n pop business), that has been selling on ebay since 1998.

http://www.collectinvest.com/

https://www.topratedseller.com/ebay/collectibleinvestmentbrokerage

We can only wonder if that buyer got taken for 1500 smackers, or got something genuine. At least eBay Buyer Protection will have the buyer's back, should it turn out to be something printed or run off at the local Kinkos.
