It has, in red below the date and time line, "Read Masconi on Pocket Billiards."
Could this be a later addition or somthing that made it on some posters and not others? It looks like the phrase appears on the poster in the movie. |
Mat, I checked that out...looks completly legit...I feel confident it's original...heck it has a LOA from Hunt Auctions...listing said the seller had 3...I emailed him and asked:
"Would you know how many of these there were total from the estate? May I ask did you buy them all?"
Guy wrote back:
"We purchased a group of 10, as I remember there were (2) groups of 10, so 20 total"
I'm confident mine is real because of the faint age toning and folds...the one in the listing has folds and an LOA....BUY!!

I got mine at Brimfield....I bought a Bill Tilden tennis match poster from a guy for like $600.00 as I recall....later I came back to look at it since he was holding it after I paid for it....and he had the Mosconi out...and I was all over it...said he forgot he had it and put it out after I left...think I gave $300.00...read the whole account in the link above
