Hamlet[edit]
- Reason
- A fine, high-quality theatrical poster showing many of the key scenes from Hamlet. The scan wasn't perfect, but I think I've managed to conceal the few highly-localised artefacts of the scanning. Obviously, I'd rather have this somewhat larger, but I think it's probably acceptable, and I'm happy take this to Valued Pictures instead, if the remaining problems are too much.

- Support Illustrative of the play; consistent costuming aids in identification of characters. I didn't find any glaring quality errors, but some of the more picky reviewers wait a day or two…--HereToHelp (talk to me) 22:06, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
- Comment Someone called for a picky editor ;) just a white balance tweak, posted up as Edit 1. I'm wavering on support due to the huge predominance of the actor's name over the play's. Not that it changes the value of the image so much , but should it really be right up there as the lead image? Who is he, anyway? mikaultalk 11:33, 7 February 2009 (UTC)
- That version looks pretty good, though I suspect yours is nearer to how it looked when new, and mine to its current appearance. I can support either. As for Thos. W. Keene - This is his obituary. Shoemaker's Holiday (talk) 20:39, 8 February 2009 (UTC)
- Support I like both versions, but actually prefer the first. Sophus Bie (talk) 23:46, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
- Support either with preference for edit. I typically prefer the original yellowing, but in the case, the edit looks much nicer. ~ ωαdεstεr16«talkstalk» 06:20, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
