Artist: Tom Jung Important Added Info: Note that, due to the immense popularity of this movie, there were FOUR different printings of this "style A" one-sheet poster! The first printing (the poster offered here) has the original NSS number of 77-21-0, while the next three printings have the 77-21 NSS number. The first three printings all have "Style A" printed in the bottom border, while the fourth printing does not. There are also reproductions of this poster, but the poster offered here is an original! Also note that this is an "international" style one-sheet (meaning it was printed in the U.S. for use in non-U.S. countries). Note the lack of a ratings box at lower left. Condition: good to very good. The poster was originally tri-folded and at some point it was folded over vertically, but the resulting vertical fold is not nearly as pronounced as the horizontal folds, which have some slight fine surface paper loss. The poster has an unusual printing defect that we have not seen on another example of this poster. it seems to surely have occurred while the poster was in the press and it resulted in horizontal lines in the upper right of the poster running from 3" below the top horizontal fold. They start in the grey of the helmet and they go through the background and they slightly continue into the right blank border. One could leave this poster as it is, preserving this unusual printing defect, or certainly a restorer could touch up that area. Please bear in mind this unusual printing defect before bidding on this poster (and other than the printing defect and the slight other defects, the poster is in pretty nice condition.)
