CLINT EASTWOOD, yet again
I was offered this Eastwood 8x10 photo (attached) by a fellow member on RACC. He is part of the list of "safe dealers" the RACC has put up. I like the shot and the price is very good for Eastwood. I'm in no rush to buy it, but I'd like to hear your thoughts! It looks good to me, but I know how sensitive buying an Eastwood can be. Thanks in advance; you guys have been so helpful to me in the last few weeks.

The only thing I will say is, it is signed in the dark spot of the picture and a little hard to see. That might be different in person. However, if it is a good price and you like it then go for it. Ian is right though, I think there are alot of Clints out there. However he is getting up in age, and we all know how prices inflate after...

Thanks Adam! The price is indeed very good. Maybe I'll ask for more pictures to see if the signature is that hard to see.

Hello,
Whatever floats your boat but you asked for opinions - to me, this has very poor contrast and placement, all that rain obscures the signature, the photo overpowers the signature and the image appears juiced in color and not terribly well focused (more about that later). What is that large "white" three part artifact in the upper right? The glare see no on the paper top middle suggests it is a not a photograph but a grainy computer print as well - and that is not worth what a lab photo is to many. The blue ink is a thicker pen is seems, this also makes appreciating the signature very difficult. I would pass quickly - to me this is a problem piece and that should be reflected in the price - it might be. Patience and a better one for you should pop up.
Best wishes,
Eric
PS - Joe has or had a superb example - ask him to post it.

Thank you so much Eric. This is a life-saver as I really didn't pick up on the (poor) print quality, even after examining the image several times (just thought it was grainy because it was taken from the movie).

Hi again,
That photo could be on matte finish reg paper, but the image and sig seem poor to me in either event.

the poor contrast makes it difficult to see the actual flow of the signature. as Eric said, the print quality is poor. I think you can do better elsewhere.
