Star Wars Empire Strikes Back Videocassette Videodisc CBS Fox Video Po for sale in Bourbonnais, Illinois

$30

This item was a promotional sent to video rental stores in 1984 announcing the release of "The Empire Strikes Back" on home video formats. It is a vertical marquee type poster that would perfectly fit that thin stretch of wall just aching for a classic piece of artwork / memorabilia. It measures 23" X 52" and is still vibrantly colored as it has been folded and put away for decades.
There are some flaws in this item:
> 1" vertical tear on the bottom near the center underneath the 1984 CBS/FOX copyright statement.
> 3" "V" tear in the poster just to the left of Vader's down-ward, cloaked arm.
> 4" vertical tear in the upper left area just above the "T" in "STAR."
> On the back, there is some yellowing where it looks like adhesive tape was applied.
Now while these tears and tapings might make this item sound ratty, when I laid it out on the dark tabletop, the flaws nearly disappeared! In fact, I didn't even notice the "V" tear until after I'd shot a few pics and was picking it up to refold it, so I put it back down and held my hand under the area to highlight the tear! I believe if you put this in a frame with a black paper background, these flaws could practically disappear.
This item has been folded away long enough. It's a great piece of history commemorating a great modern myth as well as the early days of home video entertainment (VHS, BETA, CED, and LD). I need an enthusiast to buy it and get it displayed so that it may be enjoyed!
