Or maybe my eyes deceive me, but to me, in the rear shot, this L-19 looks badly mangled: http://cgi.ebay.com/LARRIVEE-ACOUSTIC-GUITAR-L-19-ROSEWOOD-MINT_W0QQitemZ7410744192QQcategoryZ2385QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

There is, however, no mention of irregularities in the listing.

Hmmm. :huh:

Had to give it more than one look, but it appears the back is picking up background reflections. Not the best of pics, to be sure.

looks like blinds that are not symmetrically closed.....and it's a D-19 isn't it??

Yep... its a "D".
Looks like some crazy reflections... especially the ones on the side.

Have to say I love that headstock.  I really hope they bring that back some day.

Sure does look like a D.  I see the blinds reflection on the back, but the black hole looking portions on the lower and upper bouts are what look so odd to me.  Must be shadowing resulting from the flash.

either that or a really modern sound port :SHK>

A mid-1990s D, but probably a -09 and not a -19.  At that time inlays were optional on any model.  This on ehas the basic leaf-and-vine but no silver border.

It's possible the seller has lifted the description from another sale. The tuners are described as mini rotomatics, but they appear to me to be ther regular schaller.

However you look at it, nice guitar and if his reserve isn't too high it would be a nice guitar to find a good home for.

The black on the side is actually a shadow of another black guitar or case right next to the guitar.  You will see the reflection is the same on both photos (front and back) of the guitar.  I sure would want to see better photos if I were buying it.
