I wonder if they will correct it, or if they <i>really</i> think that anyone with a grease moustache will do as Groucho? Even my boyfriend (correction: fiancé!) spotted the fault right away, and he's no classic film expert. Jesus Christ...<br />Oh, and that last photo was hilarious.

It was downstairs in the basement on a shelf with a lot of boxes sitting in front of it.
