Anyone have any screen grabs of this image as it was presented in the film? I'd like to get the frame the same as the screen used one. Here is one on Ebay now who claims that the frame is the same:

Here's some screen grabs.

I've seen those frames in Ireland, they're pretty close - that's where that seller is from too.

I've been talking with Anson and we are going to do a shirt with his nicely done artwork. Here's the idea I had in mind:



The interest thread is in the junkyard HERE.

There is some white space around the photo inside the frame, does anyone think it was matted?? The frame looks like a pretty generic, square-cut black frame...which is cool. Shouldn't be to hard to find (heads over to framesbymail.com )

What do you guys think the correct size is for printing? I had assumed it was 8x10..now I'm not sure
Anson..thanks for offering this.

I think what was posted before is 100% correct. It's A4, which is 11" x 14".

Great work on the pic. Never noticed Groucho Marx in that picture before. That movie might have played out a little differently if it had been him in the bathtub.

The one I have is supposed to be a scan of the original. It fits in an 8X10 frame very nicely.

PS - I noticed that the image in the ebay auction has been cropped on both sides compared to mine. If you look at mine, you can see all of the woman at the bottom right and also some space to the left of the man in the bottom left. The top is severly cropped as well.

Compare the screen grabs to mine. It's dead-nuts on.

(sorry about the yellow tint to my pic, It was taken with my new camera before I figured out how to remove that)

I'm ready for my close up.

I've just got another email from the ebay seller (underground_replicaz) that stole my money and then left me a neg just to be malicious;


' So then I suppose the money I am out on sending your item via REGULAR MAIL because you were to thrifty to ship it correctly is my fault and I should just keep losing on this? I said I would send another with a tracking number the right way. If you dont want it cool, if you post things about me cool, whatever.

Thanks'


It takes three months and a mention of his antics in this thread for him to offer a replacement (bit late now obviously) he's saying it's all my fault because I opted for USPS postage - his original shipping quote was off the scale.
How do people like this sleep at night?
Still it sounds like I upset him :lol




Edited for spellage.

Thanks for posting this. I've been dying to have one of these.

I'm noticing that as well. Even having gone through all of my old pictures of this, why are they all cropped? Does anyone have a copy of this that is true to the original?

 

[adamata]

Yeah, mine.

 

[misterfusion]

I dunno guys,

I checked a few vintage photos I have around here and they're 8X10. The white border is also common, recurring feature.

For me. I'm creating a new 8X10 Photoshop image, pasting the picture in, resizing it to give me a 1/2" border and printing it off of that...but hey, that's just me
