For $799 it should be somewhat visible!

$799?   Well, it is a photograph...and not a custom card.   I'll give it that!

Yes, but I don't think I am supposed to need Ray Milland's "X-Ray eyes" to see the darn thing!

I can live with some contrast issues if a signer is scarce.  That's just how vintage material is sometimes.

However, these are not just "some contrast issues" and she is certainly not scarce.   

Still can't get over $799....

I agree - I'll make several concessions if a rare signer - trimmed. slight contrast issues, skipping, emulsion cracks, age related creasing, a fold, a slight tear...(preferably not all at once...).

But this? I could wind up with Crawford's own Night Gallery eyes if I keep looking for the signature!

PS - I left a message on your "wall."

Ok....but...Where is my wall?   

I know where messages are on here but not where a wall is.

I didn't know I had one!

Aha! Go to your page (click the puppy) where it tells about you (yours is private) and scroll down.

Ok....I just found it....thanks!   I replied.

I also found I had quite a few posts on that wall from other members from the past.  I guess I didn't ever know about it!
