I still have trouble trying to understand, Why this poster goes for this price...?  anyone? 

You'll need to send a referral to the PPP Mr. Waines

As always nostalgia, although I am lost like you as to it. I remember seeing it as a kid, with my mother and I didn't understand why she didn't like it. But unlike carry on films, I soon grew out of this sort of humour.
But perhaps if you look at them as the American version of carry on, then it might help.

I have a friend who believes King Frat is the greates movie ever made, so figure that one out.

Received an "original" and compared it to the supposed reprint.  No new information to report.  They are the same size but the reprint is noticeably fainter than the original.  The original is on typical thin paper of that era and has noticeable acid tanning, whereas the reprint is perfectly minty white on thick paper.  

You can see the loss of detail in at least two places, as shown below:
