Important Added Info: Note 2001: A Space Odyssey opened in 70mm in 1968 in a roadshow release. In 1969 it went into wide release in 35mm, and the movie was not as successful. The film was then given an entirely new 70mm New York City ad campaign in March 1970. That proved successful and the movie received a national release in 1970 (part of the continuous first release since 1968), and the one-sheet for this release shows the star child (but it has less color than the "wildposting" one-sheet used in New York). Also, this poster has a 1970 copyright date at bottom right, but it originally had an NSS stamp of 1968 on the back (you can no longer see it, because the poster has been linenbacked). It is commonly accepted by collectors that this poster was indeed printed in 1970, but that it was mistakenly stamped with the original NSS number on the back in 1970. In addition, this movie was re-released in 1971 after being out of theaters for a while, and a new version of this poster was printed that had additional coloring to it (like the March 1970 wilding one-sheet with the star child), and we are currently auctioning an example of that 1971 more colorful one-sheet in a separate auction.

The poster had fine surface paper loss on parts of some foldlines (typical of high-gloss posters of this period). It also had creases and scuffs along parts of the folds. Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but you can see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects.
