Important Added Info: Note that when this classic movie was first released in 1968, there were two regular one-sheets, and one half-sheet. One one-sheet had a line drawing of a woman's leg, and the other has the classic image of a sexy stockinged leg with Hoffman behind it and the great tagline "This is Benjamin. He's a little worried about his future". The half-sheet had an equally classic image of Hoffman and Bancroft in bed with the quote beginning "Benjamin - do you find me undesirable?". To further complicate things, Embassy Releasing released the movie in the United States, and United Artists released it outside the United States. Both studios issued both styles of one-sheets, and the half-sheet, so there are four different original release one-sheets (the ones from United Artists say "1SH FOR." on the back) and two original half-sheets. To make things even more complicated, right after the movie won an Academy Award, new posters were printed with "Academy Award Winner" added to the area at top (the fact that this large area had been left blank says to me that they had planned in advance to add this after the Academy Awards). There were also pre-award lobby cards from both companies and post-award lobby cards from both companies. Offered here is a 1968 Embassy release lobby card (we have seen two different styles of Embassy release cards, one with the leg art in the bottom left, and one without it, and it is possible that one predates the other, but we don't know which one). If anyone knows more about these cards, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Also note that we have a scan of both the front and the back of this lobby card, which should greatly help you see what defects it has.
