Important Added Info: Note that examples of this poster were sold in the very early 1990s from Movie Poster Warehouse in Canada (one of the leading movie poster dealers/distributors at that time). It was sold as a 1980s re-release. We strongly suspect that this was a poster that was sent to them in the 1980s when the movie was shown in Canadian midnight shows, and we are calling it "R80s". However, there is also the possibility that the poster is a reproduction, but if it were, it seems unlikely it would have been folded twice. Please do not bid on this poster unless you can accept the uncertainty of the origin of this poster.

Condition: very good. The collector who owned the poster attached it to a board by putting pieces of scotch tape folded over on the back of the poster, so that part of each piece of tape attached to the poster, and the other part attached to the board. He then put two pieces of heavy tape on the top of the poster and used those to suspend the poster from the wall. Years later, he removed the poster from the wall, and removed it from the board. He took most of the pieces of tape off of the back of the poster (a few remain), and when the tape was removed from the back, it removed some of the surface paper from the back of the poster, but not enough that it affected the front. There is a tiny hole at the crossfold and a few scuff marks along the foldlines and around the edges of the poster, but nothing all that noticeable or distracting. Please do not bid on this rare original poster unless you have read the above carefully, and can accept its odd defects. If one chose to, any talented restorer could remove the few pieces of tape from the back and linenback or paperback the poster, and it would look wonderful!
