Re: Assistance with Id'ing Fake Photographs
Wanted to share a very good presentation and study by Paul Messier. I highly reccomend checking this out if you want to learn about photo paper and the techniques used in different time periods. Its called " A Methodology for Dating Photographs, relative to the 1950's", but he talks alot about wartime photo paper as well. You can tell his experience mostly lies in the 1950's paper and up, but it is still very informative and for the most part accurate IMO.
ITS ONLY 32 Pages w/ pictures and diagrams! Easy to flip through.
Here is the FREE presentation book in PDF form: http://www.paulmessier.com/pm/pdf/papers/aipad4w3.pdf

The gates of hell were opened and we accepted the invitation to enter" 26/880 Lance Sgt, Edward Dyke. 26th Bn Northumberland Fusiliers , ( 3rd Tyneside Irish )
1st July 1916
Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader
House Carles at the Battle of Hastings

Re: Assistance with Id'ing Fake Photographs
What I have noticed recently is use of this type of pattern (type 2 without and arrow) on all types of pictures, not only portraits. Usually the paper is very whitish and you can almost smell that it was printed yesterday. Rule of thumb that I am using now is any "nice" photo with these lines in the back and no singes of wear is not worth it.

Okay, here is a comparison of another type of "lined paper" I have studied.
These are my personal opinions.....
The one on the left is Period. (UV Neg) (same as above)
The one on the right is Post-War. Note the arrow next to the dotted line. (UV pos..only in middle when peeled back) (Not fake, just printed at a later date)
I would be interested to hear anyone elses opinions on this, or if they have seen this before. I never stop learning in this hobby, its ridiculous!!

Ive been seeing these on Ebay alot lately Evgeni....as well as the completely blank reversed portraits. Not all are bad of course and I wouldnt rule out pics that are in good shape per say, but like you said....some seem/smell as if they were printed yesterday. I have some more suspicious photos on file that I will be sharing soon too and would love to hear some feedback
P.S.- Ive never seen the original packaging those PK photos come in. Thanks for showing
