That's a beauty, Holiday.
According to here:http://moviepostercollectors.com/MPC_Authentication_Matrix_Int.htmlthe poster is supposed to measure 26 15/16” x 29 3/4”, yet the EMP listing says it measures 27x41. Also, the example photo clearly shows a poster with dimensions that exceed the ~27/30 ratio, which is confusing.It is certainly a cool looking poster. I don't like the fold lines though, I would have to go for a rolled copy.
I know Holiday likes it but I think it's a very, very ugly poster. Just Keanu himself is enough to make me run, but the whole poster has zero creativity to it. Aside from the fact that it's rare, I really don't get you guys' passion for it.T
It's my favorite of them all, but not because it's the rarest. I like the darker tone. Frankly, though, all of the matrix posters leave a lot to be desired as a campaign.
Finis. Brian wins it. By the way, the consignor told me that this copy originated from Dan Rickard....
So who here is going for that Cleopatra?
Edit: Actually this poster was my last pre-hiatus purchase and my first Universal monster:
So Dan has managed to track down 3 of the 4 known copies of this poster?!?
I walked away from this whole auction on purpose as signature or mini/major auction title mean people pay more than they should for anything.
Anything with Keanu Reeves on it leaves to be desired. And come on Holiday, honestly, this is a terrible photoshop montage. Like Pulp Fiction. It's pretty bad too, but at least it has Uma.
