Important Added Info: Note that we have previously auctioned eight examples of the international three-sheet from this movie, but we have NEVER auctioned this domestic style! That solves a mystery that has puzzled us for years! The international version of this poster has the main central images and then the image of Violet floating away far away in the top right corner of the poster, with nothing between. It seemed like an incredibly odd design choice! But now we know why. The domestic poster has taglines in the in between area, and apparently they felt those would not translate well in other countries, so they were removed from the poster and nothing was put in their place! Note that this poster was stamped "DOM" which means it was printed for use within the United States (there would also have been posters stamped "FOR" for use outside the United States). Also note that this three-sheet was printed in 1 section. Condition: good. The poster has marker writing on the back of the bottom of the poster that bleeds through to the front in part of the credits area below the title. Otherwise, the poster has some creases and darkening on the folds that were on the outside when it was fully folded. Obviously, this extremely rare poster could have the above defects corrected during linenbacking, but bear them in mind before bidding. Learn More about condition grades
