I have doubts, what say ye?

I would like to see what the opinions of others are concerning this advertisement. I have never seen it or anything like it. I'm also pretty put off about the automatic refusal to take it out of the frame, or no pics of the back. Please weigh in... http://www.ebay.com/itm/V...mp;hash=item19e726e3b0

My first impression is it's probably original but very likely trimmed to fit in the frame. Price seems high for a paper poster with creases but I don't normally deal in that type of collectible.

Something aint right w/ that....................and that 'don't ask' is a deal killer.

" Okay I have never taken it out of the frame to see the border and do not intend to so don't ask. I do not want this rare advertising poster damaged in anyway. "That is taken from their item description. Looking at the pictures closely, the poster already has quite a bit of damage at the bottom, including missing paper. Whoever removes it from that frame is risking more of it falling apart. I'm not defending the seller, just saying.

Hey Jay, You're right about the damage:

It doesn't seem to be matted. I'm wondering if it has been "trimmed" to fit that frame. Personally, I will never again buy anything that is behind glass, and cannot be removed for closer inspection.

Looking at the Looks Good part,it is either trimmed or wrapped, and with it's age taking it out of the frame, to much risk of more damage and for that price......which if it is unique or extremely, rare not to bad. I would have to take it out of someone else's petty cash though[]

The image does not look right to me. The sheerness of her dress is unlike any other ad I have ever seen from Chero Cola. These next two images are the most risqué I have ever seen from a Chero ad. If I were to reproduce an advertisement (and I'm certainly not saying the seller did) I would take a calendar from Joe's Gas Station and somehow stencil? or add the Chero stuff on the bottom. It looks like it was jammed on the bottom to me, how often do you see a full picture like that and the product logo at the bottom like that? Also Chero liked to have their bottles somewhere in the ads. Just a few observations, and in my opinion a lot of red flags to me. Dennis? Anybody else?

The above card was folded (the bottom image is what you saw 1st) then you opened it up and saw the 2nd.
