Need help with authentication: 1982 - The road warrior
« on: March 17, 2014, 11:01:47 AM »
Hello to everyone,

I'm looking to buy an original 1982. The road warriror movie poster. Since im new in all this could you help me to pick a good deal.
So the first place where i looked was obviously e-bay but im worried about fakes and reprints.

These are some of the posters that seem original to me but i would appreciate if someone could look and say what do you think about their authenticity.

Im gratefull for any other advice you can give me.
Tnx!

 First, welcome1, MadJosef.

All 3 ebay examples certainly look legit, measuring 27x41 and folded as issued. Also, here is emovie's database, for the folded OS of Road Warrior, sorted by newest sale first, so you can also see what that style has been going for, in those auctions.

Cinemacollectorsvegas and pic_tures both sell only originals. As for the other seller I have not bought anything from them but by the looks of the poster it is an original as well. You are okay with all three. Now to pick which one you want.

MadJoseph. Make sure to check out all the different versions of Mad Max 2.  The international one sheet is nice too... You can check them all out on EMP auction histories...

Ok guys, thank you all for the advice, you're the best!  thumbup
This movie marked my childhood and is still one of my favorites, the other one was 1979. Alien....but as i can see this poster is a little bit more expensive?!  coffee
