Every plate at Vibratorium passes through the Malone Schoolhouse — our four-stage authentication laboratory in the Inner Sunset. Forensic paper-pulp analysis, ink-batch spectroscopy, printer-mark correlation against the Erickson registry, and finally a recorded chain-of-custody affidavit. You can leave empty-headed imitations behind. What hangs on your wall has been touched, signed, smelled, and certified.

Reflectance curves across 400–700nm catch modern day-glo substitutes within seconds.
Notarised affidavit, sealed in archival sleeve, mailed with every plate over $1,000.
We cross-reference Tea Lautrec, West Coast Litho and Levon Mosgofian against the Erickson dataset.
