  • Don't know. :Lithography looks like that sometimes, or when several colours were applied on each other, or old print techniques, this can be actually both at the same time. – Hafspajen (talk) 23:54, 31 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Simple mismatch between partial color impressions. Can be noticed elsewhere on the poster, too. It's actually minute, I have seen much worse. Very common, even today. --Janke | Talk 14:46, 1 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support A great poster. --Tremonist (talk) 14:50, 1 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support I like that she's thinking about five moustachioed men while she's performing one of her amazing exploits. Belle (talk) 00:16, 2 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support - Great image, good EV...--Godot13 (talk) 16:03, 2 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
No change in support post-restoration.--Godot13 (talk) 04:17, 4 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak support Would like to see the minor damage around the edges fixed, e.g A bit below the C of Madame Castello in the lower right; the bright dot below the horse's front hooves, the damage just left of the tail, and similar damage on the left of the printed area a bit up from that, which appears to create a faint brighter line going right from it. I really, really hate editing JPEGs, though. Maybe I should make an exception. Adam Cuerden (talk) 18:44, 3 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support I did a pass over it (bit more extensive than just the above, but including that), and fixed up the remaining issues. Will notify everyone. Adam Cuerden (talk) 19:20, 3 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
