I don't have one, but I'm sure I've seen a Quad for IT, very white with a red haired clown, and IT wrote in red...? Maybe Terry (Quadbod) has had a copy of it before.

I believe I have seen a promo poster for the book (claw coming out of the sewer).  For some reason I think the ebay seller killerposters had one upa while ago, but his prices are steep.  Welcome to the forum.

I think you would only find a video release poster for this as it was a TV mini series wasn't it?

Yeah - I think Skyjackers is correct, I seem to remember it was a TV series/DTV, so finding a theatrical poster in some countries might be tough. I'm sure I've seen VHS posters with Pennywise though.

Quite a few U.S. T.V. series, and T.V. movies ended up in U.K. Cinemas....

And thats very much the image I remember Jeff, only wider, in Quad format...

there was (is?) Aussie video posters similar to the above, but be bloody hard to find. Just a lucky trip to a junk store or something. But I would grab it if I saw it and I would post here.

Pretty certain that one didn't get a theatrical release in the UK and Warner Home Video sometimes released horizontal format video posters. I'll post one when I'm on the right computer. I was a big King fan around this time and collected his posters, only ever saw this as a video release, at least in the UK.

SEE SEEE... this is why i belong to a poster forum, people like the above, there i go again.. bed1

i remember back when me and the lady started collecting, she saw a guy selling a lot of the 2, he had assume the quad and like a book poster, 23x33, assume that was foreign since that is a quad size (isn't it??) any way, one was the above pic and the other was like the book jacket, the drain, the boat, and like a hand.. anyway if you can find me one or anyone who has one, i wont pay 100s, but i will pay more than its worth for you to keep it 8)

I have tried to find one of these in the past as well with no luck. I would imagine if one ever hit the market it would get a run on it by a few folks. For US paper, I would imagine there would be a video poster as there was a decent sell through/rental push on this title and possibly a book tie-in.

I`m pretty certain IT didn't`t get a Theatrical release,I remember when SKY broadcast the premier of IT,the listings had it down as a TV movie.
I also remember IT was released on VHS only in the UK to begin with.

I maybe thinking of a Video release poster...... I'm sorry but it wasn't a film I was really interested in, so never really took too much notice of it.... Paper-wise. I've definitely seen posters for it, but have no Absolute's....

as above really, there was no theatrical release in Australia, but had a campaign for video. King was very big as we know. I was a King reader when I was 11-13 (when I got into Poe and never read King again - until I tried a year or so ago and decided I was a smart 13 year old - no offence)

Trouble with old video posters is they got USED if anyone saved them from the stores, my walls were covered.

But keep searching you'll get something. Otherwise or meantime, get a paperback and tear off the cover and frame that!

actually I really (apart from a few exceptions) read Horror, I love the films, but not so much the books, Science fiction is the opposite.

Steven, not a film poster, but have you seen this cool print of 'It' that Mark Englert is working on? Just in case it's of any interest...

I couldn't resist Ted...the film used to scare the shit out of me when I was younger and this print brings back a lot of those memories, particularly that sewer building and Pennywise floating on the water with his balloons. The glow in the dark stuff, the other little touches like the spider in the woods and the sketch request that Mark does make it a nice little print IMO. I'm now on a poster hiatus until the month of July though, I'm officially poor :(
