Alternately, if not genuine - and it does look a bit “clean” - then someone’s been robbed! 1 Quote
Westcorkrailway Posted December 7 Posted December 7 There is a good quality scan of this poster on the internet. Buyers beware! 2 1 Quote
minister_for_hardship Posted December 8 Posted December 8 If it looks too good to be true, it usually is. Fair amount of car boot sale grade rubbish in that same auction. Quote
DERAILED Posted December 8 Author Posted December 8 It was definitely an item that needed close physical examination rather than relying on online photographs before bidding. Having just looked at the Didcot link https://didcotrailwaycentre.org.uk/article.php/421/tuesday-treasures-august-2020 I suspect the poster is some sort of repro. Quote
