In the remote areas of Canada, a constant headache for theaters was being sure of having movie posters for their current releases. Often, the posters would travel with the actual film prints, and sometimes the theater before them might have forgotten to include the poster, it might have been defaced or torn, etc. If a theater didn't have posters, it was very frustrating! This poster is most likely a "local" theater poster printed because they did not have access to posters for this movie. Often these posters were silk-screen posters, but they were often quite attractive, and virtually always had a completely different design from the regular studio issued poster. It is an absolute fact that posters from these companies are far more rare than the regular studio issued posters. It is also a certainty that these posters were issued when the movies were first released. In fact, they were created PRIOR to the movie's release, so that they could serve as teaser or advance posters (theaters rarely got the studio issued posters before receiving the actual movie). Condition: good. There is rippling and discoloration throughout the poster from exposure to moisture. There are creases and tears around the edges of the poster from it having been framed at one time. Learn More about condition grades
