      Was it during the fair in Letohallen? Heard there were some amazing posters for sale from an old collection.

        Hi,

        no the two items were sold on a store and on an auction website.
        But you are right, others may have popped somewhere else...

        See You

          Wallonie poster

          Dear all,

          Posting better pictures of my Wallonie-Poster i have on the estand, as there are some doubt's because of the gloss.

          Took some pictures outside without flash.

          Checked the poster with UV-light no glow on the poster itself and no glow at the inner white fibre.

          You're opinions please.

          Regards,
          Ron

            I think you already know my opinion, it looks identical to the one I have just returned to a dealer that was deemed a fake.

            See this thread :

            http://dev.wehrmacht-awards.com/foru...allonie+poster

            At first glance they can appear quite convincing as the majority ive seen look like they have been artificially aged / stained or were made quite some time ago (but still post-war).

            When you compare them to the originals that dont have any sheen to them the differences become apparent - aside from the far more matte finish.

            Hopefully Tony and Luc and others will chime in with their opinions on this one.

            Cheers.

              I have to agree with Max.

              Here is the one I own - with the camera flash hitting the lower right corner - no reflection at all......

                I have the same poster as RHJ. One page back on this great thread we see a famous SS poster with two completely different flags. It seems that both are now accepted as original - coming from different printings. Is it possible that there were two (or more) different printings of this Wallonie poster? The paper on these is ultra-thin, don't glow (at least mine doesn't), are the exact same size as the (now accepted) originals, and show considerable aging.

                If these are definitely fake, I'd like to know who printed them, and who declared them as fake, and how that person knows for sure.

                I suppose anything is possible, but....

                    Hi,

                    DTS you made a reference to the Mjölnir poster.

                    For now, three variants of the Mjölnir posters are known :

                    - the one available on a period picture, with a "normal" flag (and a complete swastika) - i don't know any picture of an existing copy today ;

                    - the one available on period pictures but also available in various current collections (with a "standarte flag", partial swastika) ;

                    - the "washed" version, similar to the previous one, but with many details missing (including the small swastika in the top of the right corner ; due to the bad quality of this version - clearly a hand repro of the original Mjölnir design -, it is commonly accepted that it may be a fake one.
                    But i asked a big belgian collector recently who told me that he had this version from an old collector many many years ago, and it may be - just my guess - a version used in Flandern / Netherlands. The only proof may be a period picture with that famous "washed" version...
                    Please note that the "washed" version should be from 1941/July 24, 1942, as Flandern and Netherlands had the same Ersatzkommando "Nordwest" at this time. Both addresses in Den Haag and Antwerpen are correct.


                    Pictures of the "normal flag" version, "standarte flag" version, and "washed" version.



                    See You

                      Thanks Tony. I did. So did I understand correctly that Pieter Verbruggen is saying that all these copies were made up by him from his original poster? Was he being sarcastic, or am I not understanding the syntax?

                      Of course, we all want our stuff to be real, and I'm probably grasping at straws here, but Bill Shea had this version (mine) for sale on his site a while ago.

                      If Pieter really did print these up, can I get my money back from him? (Kidding - but only halfway.)

                      Oh well. The game goes on...

                        Very interesting Vince.

                        If a period picture comes to light showing one of these washed out versions then I dare say that will drive their value up. They are still nowhere near as nice as the version I have, although I wouldnt mind getting a copy of this other type just on the off chance that they could be a variation, although im still not convinced.

                          ...a little nuance...the poster I have is a flawless one, the dealer I bought it from used this one to have copys printed of it....I DID NOT MAKE OR SELL THE COPIES...and I'm not sarcastic at all.
