People have paid quite a lot more for movie posters from the 20's and 30's.
Whether this poster is that rare and worth the asking price, I have no idea.
Also, I have the feeling we've discussed this before.
Where were you in '77?
Why is it called an "8 sheet" if it's in 3 pieces/sections?

I was wondering that too.
It's a unit of measurement for movie posters.

AH, thanks for that.
This is definitely deja vu, and I still think it's way overpriced (& you'd think they'd throw in the postage for free at that price! Jeez....)
A Metropolis poster sold for $690,000.00, but it's one of only 4 known copies. A U.S. version of the poster has never been found and is estimated to be worth at least one million dollars if discovered. Check your local garage sales. ;-)

You're probably thinking of the $42,000 rooster.
Cock-a-doodle-doo. :-)
hey, was that the same poster?
Well, if the poster came rolled, I'd think about it... but with all the creases?? No way!
Movie posters were all sent out folded back then. I guess the only way you could've gotten an unfolded one like that would have been at the printers, before it went thru the folding machine.
