Can you save and post the pics on here yourself as you have to be signed up with those sites to view the pics....

The same type of posters have sold recently at mil321 for very little money. One was offered as an original, one as a copy.
As I'm everything but not an expert when it comes to such posters I'd like to show the links for opinions.

First the one which is up for sale now:

And here are the two others which were sold recently at mil321:

I hope someone can tell if they are original (or at least one of them)

That would have been the easiest way but according to the copyright I'm not gonna do that.
The seller from the MFF had been informed and he'll probably show his poster here at this thread.

The seller allowed me to show his scans for opinions here at the WAF.

He describes it as a original poster from a Croatian archive which is one of 3 originals known. Period of production by the end of 1944.
The paper is of fibrous texture and kind of oily. It also has a rancid, oily smell.

Hi,

did you checked post #770 ?

The poster is at least incomplete, and the copy presented on "39/45 Magazine" is far more convincing than this one.

This is like "fake music demos" of known bands : more the quality is bad, more it is a fake...

See You

Hi,

i saw the two auctions on M321, and i'm pretty sure that those posters used the one presented on "39/45 Magazine".
Incomplete with ugly quality (to hide the fake...). I loved the "archive stamp" too

See You

Thanks for your postings, Vince. Please take into consideration that the poster shown here isn't one of the mil321 posters.
The owner also says that the texture is absolutely different as he had one of those fakes in hands.

Looks like it was made using a stencil and spray paint.

He'll try to provide better scans. Another thing I forgot to mention is that this particular poster is of smaller dimensions than the originals and was - according to the owner - a specimen / model / sample / etc. of the originals.

A Banksy special.

Anton's signature nowhere to be seen.
