<p>[QUOTE="Jerry Coker, post: 10238504, member: 18802"]Debora, the Landis/Costello photo came with the paper documentation shown, along with other photos noted in the documentation, related to this WB promo/packet, so you are correct. The Hedy Lamarr photo did not come with the same documentation, however, it was purchased by me at the same time from a person who had quite few other Hollywood promos/packets, most of which are films dated in the mid to late 1940's, film noir era. All are blank backed with no watermarks. Figtree3, yes, 3rd party grading companies really jumped on board the Type designation, regardless of genre. Anything to make them some more $. I think Type 1's are the photos most people send in for grading. I did a little more research yesterday and could not find anything that says the volume of photos created off an original negative effects the Type designation. So in my examples I'll assume the Hedy Lamarr is a Type 1, and the Landis/Costello a Type 2, regardless of the number of promo photos created off the original negative. Does anybody know a good forum for Hollywood photo collectors? I got some great tips here a while back when I was looking for some antique photo forums and Facebook groups! Thank you for the replies![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
