find at a flea market

I think, no, I know, that my poster is a reprint because of a few things. The colors aren't real crisp like on original posters. It doesn't look photocopied or anything that bad, they just look a bit washed out. Also, there weren't any folds, bends or creases in the paper at all. To survive this long in that kind of shape would mean it would have framed - but there was no discoloration around the edges, or any sign of it being framed.
Finally, the price. With so many collectors out there on eBay - I can't buy a common t206 for less than $25-30 anymore - you have to think that if it was real, someone else would have spotted it.
But in the end, I don't really care. I like the way it looks and the wife likes it. So I'm happy with it.
