Amelie Japanese B1 - Help with Authentication

[Neo]

I just saw that you had posted that Flickr link in your first post.  Sorry to repeat that in my post yesterday.

Thanks for the update about the LAMP thing and all.  It would be a helpful business for someone such as LAMP to start, though.

Dear All,

Thank you very much for the kind advice. Would it be possible for me to say that the collective verdict of the learned minds gathered here is that the B1 in my possession is most likely a high quality reproduction?

Thank you everyone again for advising on this!

best,
Joseph

not a usuable format. Movie Poster Grading tried it. unless you're going to paste the paper onto the poster, how would you know 'this' poster goes with 'that' letter?

a lobby card can be encapsulated by CGC, a one sheet cannot.

Right. It's not good in that sense, that is, for resale.  The LC encapsulation is pretty cool.  For a person's own peace of mind, though, I'm sure some folks would like to know whether their stuff is legit, without the whole encapsulation, etc. dealio.

Yes. If you compare your copy to the known original copy, from the reputable person that is Mr. Linder in the Flickr link, you can clearly see the differences.

buy from legitimate sources and you have the best chance of winding up on the positive. Though there are some mistakes that even seasoned dealers make when they aren't doing the 'due diligence' part and are just guessing

Ed Poole gives FFF a big thumbs up, so I would think all will work out between them and Joseph.
