WWI Poster restored 105 years old
« on: April 17, 2019, 04:26:32 PM »
Hi All,

I poster some time ago, when I purchased this. It was a fragile poster in need of love.  It’s now been restored, cleaned and professionally linen backed and framed. I am after some advice on thoughts on the value for my home insurance. I know this is extremely rare, the only other copy I can find is in the London imperial war museum.  I’d appreciate any advice.

Thankyou

Hi Adam98uk,  Would you be willing to post an image of the poster on APF? I'm not comfortable clicking a link.  My best, Okie

Okie..imgur.com is a 3rd party photo hosting site, like Flickr or Photobucket.

Thanks, Jeff!  Rather than timid --I'd definitely protect you from a charging heffalump (God Save the Pooh and all)-- let's call it being experienced enough to know when I don't know...  Okie

Hi Adam98uk,  I'll give you my opinion: somewhere between $50 to $300 U.S.  Okie
