In search of large French Pickpocket (Bresson)
« on: January 21, 2012, 10:18:57 PM »
Prefer the original release, but the reissue may work, depending on price.

Might be one of my wife's favorite posters, and I want to find one to have framed for her for her birthday. (I know, its a win-win, haha).

Let me know if you know of one or have one you would sell/trade, whatever.

Thanks fellas!

Nope! No I did NOT!  :)

Learned my lesson a few years ago, right Thierry? I have seen the light...

When you google, use Grande ... You'll have no hope googling large french, well, I dare not guess what you might find.

Don't fight it, it is Thierry hates "French Grande"

I have successfully asked for a US price with Dominique (meaning, listed for 400 euros, paid $400 USD).  Not sure what your budget is...

Thanks Matt, yeah, Thierry sent me this link as well. I haven't looked through Dominique's site in years as I normally stay away from dealers.

I am leaning towards a reissue which is identical save some extra text at the top center border, but in the end I do want an OG, so who knows...what do to, what to do...

Make an offer that you think is fair... nothing to lose really.

Yeah, I think I will do that in the end.

Matt, do you have a picture of the one you bought from him handy? If not, no biggie, do not go out of your way. Just wondering how vivid the yellow text is as I have seen this in varying 'vividness' for lack of a better term.

Sorry, I was just making an example... the poster I bought was something entirely different.  You can ask for more/detailed photos... they have great customer service.

Ben,

I sent you a bunch of links.  Besson is the last one I'd try.  The Posteritati of France.  I have never bought from them and never will.
