Wire Photo for David R.
Posted By: <b>Mike H.</b><p>David. Give us a lecture on wire photos please. I have both of your books, but wire photos aren't covered. A few questions I have are.<br /><br />1.What should we look for from a stamping perspective? I've seen wire photos that have a newspaper clipping of the photo on the back, but that doesn't mean the pic. wasn't printed yesterday.<br /><br />2. Are there fakes that are very well done and tough to detect?<br /><br />3. Could one be printed off by a reporter today at his office from long ago file, stamped with an adjustable stamper to say 1933, and sold to a sucker like ME tomorrow?<br /><br />4. Obviously condition and subject determine value, but is there anything else that effects price?<br /><br />Thanks for the information. You are a great resource and a fine human being. Did I butter you up adequately? Ha Ha<br /><br />Thanks
